Move Sugar from Apache to IIS on Win 2003 server

[annesugar]

Hello,

I have used the bitrock installer to install Sugar, Apache, PHP and MysQL onto a dedicated win 2003 server. It installed onto Apache on port 8080 as 80 was being used by IIS.

Everything is installed OK. I can access and run Sugar through local host but not from the outsde world url. I think this is because the port 8080 is blocked.

What I would ideally like to do is swap this installation from Apache to IIS but need some pointers off a kind expert. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your help.




Sugar Edition - open source v 4.2.1a
Operating System win 2003 server
PHP Version 4.4.3
Database MySQL 3.23.49
Web Server Apache 2.0.55

If you want it on IIS, just go to php.net and download the version you want, go to mysql.com download the version you want and install the .exe files. It was a rather straight forward install for IIS if you ask me.

Hi Sacromentojoe,

Thanks for your reply. I have already installed PHP and MySQL but just want to move to use IIS instead of Apache but without uninstalling and starting again. So the question is How can I get Sugar to use IIS instead of Apache?

Thanks again.

Well, I'm not sure how you setup your site but it sounds like you need to move all your files that are in the apache docroot to the iis docroot. Usually c:\winnt\inetpub\wwwroot\

Hi,

Thanks again for your reply. Apart from moving the files over are there any other changes I need to be aware of? The only other thing I can think I would need to change would be the port (I was using 8080 with Apache as IIS was on port 80).

look at the config.php in your SugarCRM directory to see if the urls are fixed.
you may see something like this http://www.example.com:8080/SugarCRM change it to http://www.example.com/SugarCRM to use port 80
