Description:
------------
I installed php as a cgi module with the instructions on the php website.  I then created a page named "index.php" with a single line: <?php echo "hello"; ?>

When I view the page, nothing happens... Nothing happens... Nothing happens... Finally "CGI Timeout" happens.  Obviously it's not timing out because of the php code, as any other code produces the same result including absolutely no code.  

I've looked all over and I can't find a single positive response to this problem.  It seems to be one of those lost causes that no one has any idea about and therefore ignores.  Prove me wrong, O, prove me wrong!

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php echo "hello"; ?>

Expected result:
----------------
hello

Actual result:
--------------
CGI Timeout
The specified CGI application exceeded the allowed time for processing. The server has deleted the process.

sale result with Windows NT Server and IIS4

Oops. Not a bug anymore for me. I had to change the executable associated with ".php" in IIS, from "php.exe" to "php-cgi.exe". Install.txt included is the distribution seems to be not updated.

Well that sorta worked...  But now every page gives me an HTML error 400 - Bad Request.  Any ideas?

From install.txt :
!NOTE!: Since 4.1.2, the php.ini setting
cgi.force_redirect defaults to '1' which effectively prevents the cgi from working within IIS. You need to set up at least a minimal php.ini file with the following directive:
 cgi.force_redirect = 0

And no more http 400 error.

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

Well there was a "bug" in the documentation, and there's a bug in it's handling of IIS.  Maybe it's an IIS bug, but if you are aware of it you should handle it.  The defered responsibility might be just, but it is deffinately stupid.
