How you fix the path to php.ini is what you did in the first place,
except you shouldn't leave behind the c:\php\php.ini to confuse
yourself some other day.
MOVE the file to c:\winnt where PHP thinks it must be.
Other Options:
Re-compile PHP from scratch to choose a different path for php.ini
Use that new-fangled Apache directive to tell Apache where to find
php.ini -- This implies dumping IIS and using Apache, which you should
do anyway :-)
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, your question SHOULD be:
How do I get IIS to not return 404 for the first hit on a URL, then
the correct content on subsequent hits?
Standard Windows Debugging 101:
#1
Re-boot the whole machine and pray.
#2
Re-install the entire OS and all software.
#3
Switch to Linux.
The first two steps are what Microsoft always tells me to do. :-)
Sorry. Best I can do for you...
PS
I suspect that in this case, some sort of brain-dead IIS/DNS/MS-OS
cache is screwing you up and a re-boot (#1) actually WILL solve the
problem. This is, however, only a guess.
