And you've never been in the situation of needing help to get  
something going on Windows and had trouble getting the right advice on  
something new? Let's get real here. I only run Windows in a virtual  
machine and still have problems every week with something or other. So  
you're either very very lucky or being disingenuous.

Frankly I think Aaron was probably asking in the wrong place to begin  
with. The Zend forum threads related to Wordpress, or the Wordpress  
forums might have yielded better results - and certainly less  
controversy!

The problem that Aaron faces arises not because of a bad platform  
choice - it is a perfectly valid choice if using PHP on i for other  
reasons and/or you need to simply integrate IBM i data into the  
Wordpress output. His problem is simply that, as of today, there is  
insufficient experience with running the tool on the latest PHP. Most  
people who have Wordpress experience on IBM i gained that experience  
with Zend Core which with its double-Apache fun and games was a very  
different animal. In six months this question would get asked and  
answered in 5 minutes.

As an aside to Aaron, have you tried your BP channel? You should be  
able to get some results that way I'd have thought.
