My client has a site that is hosted on a windows server platform. Built through ASP backbone and CSS/XHTML. Now she wants a blog to be implemented. Wordpress is a great idea, but how can i implement it on a window server? Wordpress is for Apache and PHP right?
If your clients account is hosted on a Windows server platform, then it could be a problem with the Directory Indexes. The default configuration of the windows server is to load index.htm, index.html, default.htm, default.html, default.asp files. Since Wordpress is done in PHP so the default page would be index.php. As this is not part of the default configuration so we need to add it. To do this, you need to click on Web Options in the Control Panel. Then scroll down to the Directory Indexes section to add index.php to the Directory Indexes. If necessary, contact your web host for support in this matter.
