Integrating with ASP.NET site

    I have WordPress installed on my Windows 7/IIS 7 system. In a browser, I can enter https://localhost/MyBlog and it displays fine.

    I develop my website with Visual Studio 2010 and VB.NET. On my home page (default.aspx), I want to put a hyperlink pointing to MyBlog. Right now, when I click the link, it simply downloads the index.php file in my blog folder.

    I have installed PHP versions 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5. In IIS, using the PHP Manager icon, it says that it is getting its config file from version 5.5. I can display a test index.php page in a browser outside of VS.

    Can someone tell me definitively whether I can do what I want with a hyperlink on an ASPX page that points to a WordPress blog?

    Thanks!

  • As I recall, for the asp site, you will need to configure a handler for php.

    Google “iis7 add file handler php” or otherwise review in your server documentation.

    Also, are you using the full url in the link? Might just be that.

    Thank you for the suggestions!

    I am using the full URL in the link, so I don’t think that’s the problem.

    Also, I have handlers for *.php defined in the handler mapping section of IIS. In fact, I have handlers for PHP versions 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5. Do I need all three? I’m not sure why I have those three versions installed, as it appears from the PHP Manager in IIS that only one is active. Should I get rid of everything but the latest version?
