Description:
------------
I'm having a problem to get PHP 5.0.1 to work for IIS6 in Windows 2003.  I've been successful in getting ISAPI to run but I need the stability of CGI for my projects.  I've followed the instructions to setup ISAPI with good luck here:

IIS6 ISAPI SETUP
http://www.visualwin.com/PHP-ISAPI/

IIS6 CGI SETUP
http://www.visualwin.com/PHP/

But I've also tried to follow the instructions on the same  site for setting up CGI but I keep getting an error.  Here is the error message I get after trying to setup CGI.

******** IIS ERROR MESSAGE ******************

You are not authorized to view this page
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.

Please try the following:

    * Contact the Web site administrator if you believe you should be able to view this directory or page.
    * Click the Refresh button to try again with different credentials.

HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.
Internet Information Services (IIS)

******** IIS ERROR MESSAGE ******************

I have double checked all permissions on the executables and the scripts as well.  All have access and permissions for the web service to read and execute.  I've also tried to see if IIS6 was not allowing it because of the web service permissions.  So I allowed ALL services access and I'm still having the same result.   Is there somthing that I'm missing from the installation documentation?

Also, to eliminate the fact the IIS was doing this to every file, I renamed my phpinfo() file to a .HTML and I was able to view the source code.  So it is definitly not somthing wrong with folder permissions.

I'm using PHP-CGI.exe for windows environments too.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

   phpinfo();

?>

Expected result:
----------------
I should expect to see the PHP info page, but instead I see an IIS permission denied error.

Actual result:
--------------
******** IIS ERROR MESSAGE ******************

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.

Correct, that's why I opened the bug as a documentation problem.  I followed the directions in the PHP distribution and it doesn't work.  I've got several other users that are having the exact same problem as well, even after following the installation instructions.

Currently, all I can get to work is the ISAPI module and I'm trying to convert over to CGI as the installation instructions recomend for production sites.  Is this still a canidate for a bug?
