What are common issues when trying to host a PHP website on a Windows 2003 Small Business Server?

Common issues when hosting a PHP website on a Windows 2003 Small Business Server include compatibility issues with older versions of PHP, configuration problems with IIS, and difficulties with setting up the necessary PHP extensions. To solve these issues, make sure to update PHP to a version that is compatible with Windows 2003, configure IIS to properly handle PHP files, and install any required PHP extensions. 

// Sample PHP code snippet to configure IIS to handle PHP files
<?php
  // Add the following lines to your IIS configuration file (e.g., web.config)
  <system.webServer>
    <handlers>
      <add name="PHP" path="*.php" verb="GET,HEAD,POST" modules="FastCgiModule" scriptProcessor="C:\Path\To\php-cgi.exe" resourceType="File" requireAccess="Script" />
    </handlers>
  </system.webServer>
?>
