I am attempting to set up a localhost testing server through IIS, but for the life of me I have been unable to get it working. I have my project folder in the localhost directory:

C:\inetpub\wwwroot

The IIS splash screen works when I just try to go to "localhost", but when I run any PHP file I just get the error:

 "HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension     configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map.".

I was first trying with my project, but then I tried a simple echo script which still gives me the same error, so something must be wrong with how my PHP is configured. The most recent solution I have tried is this one IIS 8 Wont run PHP?, but this did not work.

Is there a surefire way to fix this? I have been looking at it for HOURS.

I am running Windows 8.1 64-bit. Has anyone else ran into this problem and managed to fix it?

Let me know if you need any more information, I really need to get this testing server up :/

So I tried this one already. I looked closer at the pictures and noticed the first time I did it the installer didn't automatically add all of those dependencies. Just installed all the ones they show in the picture and it's working now!
Nice man! if you have any other doubt about the iis with php, don't be nervous, you can ask anything \O/
