Deploying Wordpress in a Windows Server 2008 R2 with WebMatrix - php

I downloaded and installed without any problem Wordpress through Webmatrix in a Windows Server 2008 r2 in development environment. Once I finished the customization, I wanted to deploy the Wordpress blog, in order to make accessible to other users, in the same Windows Server 2008 r2.
And here started the pain. I correctly validated the connection with IIS 7.5 (I correctly set up the Web Deployment tool) and with the MySQL database.
Once I click the publish compatibility, all the checks (Database, Simple HTML page, PHP and MySQL driver for PHP) are not available. I already installed PHP 5.2 and I enabled the ISAPI in IIS 7.5 for 32 bits applications.
About MySQL I suppose it should work upon installation(as it works in development environment) but still it is not recognized. Anybody might help? Thanks

Cant turn off SSL

I am working on an old website (created in 2008) which is functional on its production site but has developed an issue on my localhost server. I can call up the localhost address of a page when the URL is entered directly into the browser address bar, but if I attempt to call it up through Dreamweaver, it attempts to render it using SSL, and the browser throws a cannot connect error. Something, somewhere, is forcing a SSL connection. Localhost is not set up for SSL nor do I want to do so.
I do my work in Adobe Dreamweaver v. 10.0, Build 4117, and a local server using WampServer. I recently installed a different version of WampServer after experiencing an anomaly in version 3.2.3 which made it inconvenient to use. This issue appeared after I uninstalled version 3.2.3 and installed version 3.0.6. I chose this WampServer version because the local setup needs php 5.6 to be compatible with the production site. I confirmed that all Visual C++ packages are installed correctly and feel reasonably comfortable that WampServer installed correctly. Prior to this problem, I used the WampServer/Dreamweaver combination for years without any serious issues.
WampServer’s localhost page is not accessible, but phpMyAdmin is functional. McAfee Antivirus is installed but has never been an issue. There is no third party firewall installed.
The website has several .htaccess file and I checked them and confirmed that they are not configured for secure connections. Adding the site to my virtual host settings did not resolve the problem, and relevant httpd.config ssl settings are commented out.
Where do we go from here?
Windows version: Windows 10 Pro x64,
Version 20H2,
Installed on ‎8/‎11/‎2020,
OS build 19042.1237;
WampServer Version: 3.0.6 x64;
Apache Version: 2.4.23;
PHP Version: 5.6.40;
MySQL Version: 5.7.3;
Adobe Dreamweaver v. 10.0, Build 4117.

Joomla site components are not working after moving site from Server 2003 to Server 2008

After moving Joomla site from Server 2003 (apache) to Server 2008 (iis) all Joomla components stoppped working. What can be reason of that problem? Everything else works w/o any problems.
PHP and mysql hadnt changed.
To run Joomla site on iis you need to install below component by using web platform installer or manually:
1)PHP
2)Mysql
3)Joomla
configure your database and Joomla setting:

Installing a php application in a windows server 2012, 2008 or 2003

I found too many problems in installing the application in a local network. I use wampserver as the local server(in my computer only) for my application. I want to use a windows server 2012,2008 or 2003 to install the application so that it may function in the network I created and different users can access to it. Would you please give me even the link that explains the steps clearly and in details?
You can download and install Microsoft's web platform
http://www.microsoft.com/web/downloads/platform.aspx
it will work on server with IIS and on a local desktop with IIS Express.
After you install it, you may add PHP to your server as Fast-CGI application host.

the xampp apache server also support in Java EE

I am using xampp server. Does it support Jsp and Java servlets? If not, is there any server that supports both 'php and Java EE' and to how to use it
Use Apache Tomcat 7.0, it will support both PHP and Java EE.
As stated in official xampp web page it supports:
with the release of the new version of XAMPP 1.8.0,
Apache 2.4.2
MySQL 5.5.25a
PHP 5.4.4 phpMyAdmin 3.5.2
FileZilla FTP Server 0.9.41
Tomcat 7.0.28 (with mod_proxy_ajp as connector)
Strawberry Perl 5.16.0.1 Portable
XAMPP Control Panel 3.0.12 (from
hackattack142)
it seems with the tomcat server you can deploy your application if java configurations (Java SE JDK 6) are done properly. In this video (Integrating Tomcat with Apache Using XAMPP Part 1) it tells how to do it but basically you can put your jsp file to /xampp/tomcat/webapps folder.
In my opinion starting using netbeans IDE and selecting the XAMPP server as a default server you can deploy your javaEE applications easily, a good start is here.
For PHP tomcat supports and also XAMMP has very is easy configuration for PHP projects, you can follow the details from this video.
