Hi, everyone! I've tried installing Moodle in Windows 2003 Server (IIS 6.0 + FastCGI) for 20+ times, and I am always struck with this  FastCGI Error ( See below for details).

I'm so frustrated that I eagerly beg anyone who knows a clue to help me exploring further into the incompatility with Moodle and IIS(FastCGI).

BTW, I've installed Moodle 2.x with XAMPP successfully serveral times before.

==========================================

FastCGI Error

The FastCGI Handler was unable to process the request.

Error Details:

• The FastCGI process exceeded configured activity timeout
• Error Number: 258 (0x80070102).
• Error Description: µÈ´ýµÄ²Ù×÷¹ýʱ¡£

HTTP Error 500 - Server Error.
Internet Information Services (IIS)

=====================================

I've tried reconfigure the PHP.ini as follows:

====================================

max_execution_time = 30000

====================================

and in fcgiext.ini (located in C:\windows\system32\inetsvr)

====================================

  EnvironmentVars=PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS:10000

 ActivityTimeout=900000

  RequestTimeout= 900000

 InstanceMaxRequests=100000

====================================

and I restart IIS before I reinstall.

As you can see, the time I designated to those variables are far more than the defaults.

Also, after failing in installing moodle, when I visit the moodle site with the URLhttp://wenfa.whut.edu.cn/moodle, the moodle site throws the following error message:

===========================

Default exception handler: Could not find a top-level course! Debug:
