A few months ago I started posting fixes for the Joomla! application running on IIS7. The main reason was because I was unhappily using IIS7 and was trying to fix it. What seemed like a blessing at first turned out to be a real pain. A few of the features in Joomla! generated server errors which left me quite annoyed. After a month or two of frustration I quit using IIS7 and started using Linux. Nonetheless this post is to inform those that were quite happy with the fixes I provided then that I am back to using Joomla! on IIS7 once again. This time however I have taken the correct route and joined the Joomla! Bugsquad so that any fixes I help with are incorporated into the core. But no, I am not testing on this server, I need my Linux-served WordPress powered site (WP which was also unhappy on IIS7) to work without the shenanigans. I have installed it on my other server http://damnbugs.com/joomla which I plan to use primarily for ASP.NET development purposes. It is time to get my hands dirty once again!
