Converting from Unix/Apache to IIS

My main problem is converting the unix paths to windows.

For instance, on unix i have:

/php
/mysql
/includes
/www (webroot)

Many scripts have lines like this:



Do i have to find and replace all of those statements in the code in order for it to work on windows or is there a simpler way?

Thanks in advance.

You could just make /includes be part of your web would be easiest. ASP uses physical disk paths as the argument for includes, which means you wouldn't have to do anything different, if php uses a physical disk path rather than a web path then you wouldn't have to change anything at all.

Otherwise there are many editors that offer find & replace but IIS itself doesn't.

You would have your document root, which on a default IIS is c:\inetpub\wwwroot.

Inside that is where your name might be an issue.

Say you have a site called "devshed", and inside you have a folder called "includes".

-devshed
index.php
--includes

in 'index.php', to include a file from include your code would be

include (./includes/filename.php)

the "." would be the current directory, and then slash for subdirectories.

2 dots, ".." takes you up one level. One dot represents the current directory, and the 2nd is the directory above it.
