Hey Dorin

Did you do a custom install or manual? I did custom but found there were
still some things I had to change i.e. 'Setting Up the PHP Association' and
'Setting Up the FastCGI Association'

Try re-reading the pdf 'Installing and Configuring on Windows' the section
titled 'Configuring MapGuide Web Server Extensions on Windows', and checking
that all of your settings are correct.

Regards

James Dudden
