IIS 6 FastCGI and PHP 5.3.6

[Borvik]

Actually I'm trying to run PHP 5.2.6 and 5.3.6 simultaneously.

PHP 5.2.6 is running properly as an ISAPI module.
PHP 5.3 dropped support for ISAPI, so I am attempting to set it up as FastCGI.

Right now I'm just trying to configure the extension .php5 to run through PHP 5.3.6.

Here is what I have so far:
PHP 5.2.6 is located at C:\PHP
PHP 5.3.6 is located at C:\PHP536 nts version.

fcgiext.ini

[Types]
php5=PHP

[PHP]
ExePath=c:\PHP536\php-cgi.exe
InstanceMaxRequests=10000
EnvironmentVars=PHPRC:C:\PHP536\

Application Mapping for single testing website in IIS manager has:
.php -> C:\PHP\php5isapi.dll
.php5 -> C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\fcgiext.dll

In the website direction I have two test files: test.php and test.php5. The contents of both are:

<?php phpinfo();

When I navigate to

http://site/test.php,

the phpinfo page comes up fine. But when I try test.php5, I get the following:

FastCGI Error

The FastCGI Handler was unable to process the request.
Error Details:

The FastCGI process exited unexpectedly
Error Number: -2 (0xfffffffe).
Error Description: Unknown Error
HTTP Error 500 - Server Error.
Internet Information Services (IIS)

Anyone have any ideas how to get 5.3.6 working here?

Of course, I figure it out now.

I made sure to enable error logging so I can see it in the event viewer.

I had copied the php.ini from my 5.2 directory to keep most of my settings the same.

I found some modules that were trying to load that were not there in the new version, as well as a bad/missing browscap.ini reference.

Once I commented those out, it started working.
