    Hello,

    I have just installed the advanced version on a windows server and I get an internal server error 500. 

    I have run the check.php, everything is ok :

    PHP_VERSION: 5.6.30
    PHP_OS: WINNT
    PHP_UNAME: Windows NT 007-MCP01 6.3 build 9600 (Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard Edition) i586
    SERVER_NAME: mcp-fiduciaire.be
    SERVER_SOFTWARE: Microsoft-IIS/8.5
    SERVER_ADDR: 
    SERVER_PROTOCOL: HTTP/1.1
    HTTP_HOST: mcp-fiduciaire.be
    HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR: 
    PHP_SELF: /devis/index.php/do_things/mhh
    ZipArchive: 1
    DomDocument: 1
    SimpleXMLElement: 1
    Tidy: 1
    mbstring: 1
     

    Also, if I remove the key and domain from configuration file, I get 2 errors : 

    1) Error while trying to write to Lettre_de_mission_222 please check write access. 

    2) An uncaught Exception was encountered

    Type: Exception

    Message: There is not a valid license

    [...]

    I have played around with the temp_path and gave full rights to iis_IUSRS user for any of the tmp_path I have tried, but to no avail. I

    I also ran sample_1.php in command line but could not find the output anywhere.

    What else should I try next ? The test version was working perfectly on my test environment (wamp, not IIS) but I guess should have tried the same test version on the windows server too. 

    I'm stuck and do not know what to try next :(

    Hello,

    phpdocx is fully tested with PHP CLI mode and almost all web servers (IIS, apache, lighttpd, , nginx, Cherokee, ...), OS (Linux, Windows, macOS) and PHP handlers (mod_php, FastCGI, php-fpm, CGI...). So some rw access should be missing (IIS may need setting a custom temp_path with rw access in the config/phpdocxconfig.ini file).

    As first test, after you have added the license key and copied all files, please run the most simple sample included in the package (Core/addText/sample_1.php) using the PHP CLI mode:

    C:\...> php.exe sample_1.php

    Please note that you may need to set the absolute path to php.exe if it's not as an env variable. The previous script must generate a DOCX in the same folder than the script; otherwise please check your server logs (maybe some PHP extension is missing for PHP CLI mode).

    When you run it using IIS, what error do you see in the server logs? As an Internal Server Error is a generic error, the server logs should explain what's happening.

    Regards.

    PHP Warning:  require_once(../../../classes/CreateDocx.inc): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [...]\third_party\phpdocx\examples\Core\addText\sample_1.php on line 3

    I have given the full control to IIS_IUSRS.

    Is the relative path wrong or ... ?

    Hello,

    The relative path is correct if you run the sample in the same folder than the script. Please check that all files have been copied and you are running the script in the same folder that the script exists; as it uses a relative path, you can't run:

    C:\...>php.exe examples/Core/addText/sample_1.php

    You need to access the examples folder and then run the script:

    C:\...> cd examples/Core/addText

    C:\...> php sample_1.php

    You can also try to set an absolute path to CreateDocx.inc, and also please check you can include CreateDocx.inc correctly.

    The error you are getting only appears if PHP can't read the file.

    Regards.

    Oops, indeed, I was running the sample from the wrong directory.

    I finally made it work. I do not know exactly what I did, because I tried so many things, but I believe the internal server error was related to permissions.

    Thank you for your help !
