[Plugin: Events Manager] Event Submission problem on IIS

  • I’m having a really nasty time getting anonymous event submission to work on an IIS install…

    The problem is that when I submit the form, $_REQUEST is empty and nothing happens other than dropping me back at the form. No feedback, no event added.

    This is *not* a plugin conflict, I’ve already eliminated that.

    This is also not a configuration issue, and this is where it gets a bit complicated and annoying. I have two copies of the site: 1 on my linux server, the other on the clients iis server. (they changed their mind on hosting last minute). On my linux server, it works fine. On iis, it doesn’t (surprise, surprise). I’ve gone through the configurations of the plugin, the anonymous user, even wordpress itself with a fine tooth comb, and they are identical.

    After a few days of digging and hair pulling, I think I may have a suspicion as to what’s going on… there seems to have been an odd 404 showing up in $_SERVER, so I investigated that. I would appear that the client’s admin has implemented a mod-rewrite workaround outlined here: URL Mod-Rewrite Workaround for IIS 6.0 and WordPress.

    Is it possible that this workaround is somehow trashing $_REQUEST?

    Thanks!

    Hi, $_REQUEST is standard in PHP, WP uses it too, so this wouldn’t solve the problem. I think you need to check your server settings and make sure PHP is installed properly.
