PHP FastCGI issue with IIS (Integration Testlink with TFS)

[aostad]

Hi Everyone,

During integration of Testlink 1.9.4 with MS Team Foundation Server (TFS), I hit a problem with PHP FastCGI module.

The problem is that pages are not loaded and I get error like this screenshot: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/10 ... issue.jpg/

I had similar issue when I was integrating TFS with Testlink using Apache+Mysql in XAMPP package, however, it's been solved by php configuration. In this case, the environment is very different (Server 2008 + SQLserver 2008 + IIS7 + PHP5.3.13).

Anyway, After spending some time I couldn't solve the problem and cannot spend more time without a clue. I could narrow it down to the FastCGI. To make sure, I'v switched to CGI and never seen that error. Unfortunately, CGI is not as good and efficient as FastCGI, but I had to move on to complete the integration.

Other than the FastCGI issue, the rest of integration went very well. I have posted a "How To" document for integrating TFS with Testlink1.9.3. I'll post (or put in mantis) the procedure for integrating Testlink1.9.4 with TFS soon. I prefer to find a solution to FastCGI issue first then document everything.

Hopefully, somebody who hit the same issue with FastCGI will share his/her experience/solution with me to make this integration completed.

Cheers.
