PHP - IIS7 - 64Bit

[1DMF]

Hi,

We have just upgraded our webserver to windows 2008 R2 - 64bit.

I went to install Perl as that is my web language of choice , only it seems ActivePerl is no longer free?

So I am thinking of moving over to PHP, only looking round the net, there are lots of posts regarding problems with PHP and 64bit / IIS7

Does PHP run on IIS7 / 64bit and if so , which version should I be running?

Thanks,
1DMF

run the latest stable version.
i have installed on windows a couple of times (virtuals both) in recent years and not run into any problems. but my usage time on those platforms can be measured in minutes of less than three digits.

Is that still the 32bit version via fast-cgi and the php-cgi.exe component?
