Hi All,

Joomla is an open source CMS (content management system ) it uses PHP script to run and MYSQL database.
IIS supports  PHP by adding handlers to the IIS.We can install the Joomla by easy steps

First download the joomla package and extract the package

now open the windows powershell and run the following commnads

Code: [Select]

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\joomla>icacls configuration.php /grant BUILTIN\IIS_IUSRS:W

Code: [Select]

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Joomla>icacls administrator\cache /grant BUILTIN\IIS_IUSRS:(OI)(CI)(M)

set the permission to the temp folder since joomla uses temporary folder to access the files

Code: [Select]

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Joomla>icacls tmp /grant BUILTIN\IIS_IUSRS:(OI)(CI)(M)

Now setup the database with user name and password

then run the installer by pointing

enter the database username and other credentials



That's it
