Zabbix frontend on IIS question

[NomenNescio]

Hi, I'm running the Zabbix frontend on IIS and I'm getting an error, I'm not getting this error when I run the frontend on linux.

I would like to know how to fix this error, so if anyone knows how to do it please tell me. I've searched on google and it seems that the php frontend is trying to execute a Linux command on windows(but I could be wrong):
ps -ef|grep zabbix_server|grep -v grep|wc -l
What are the consequences of this error and how do I fix it?

Here's a screenshot:

That's how the UI tries to find out whether "zabbix_server" is running and display "YES/NO". Pretty useless for you as zabbix_server is running on another box.

In frontends/php/include/config.inc.php

Change the first lines of function get_status() to something like:

function get_status() {
    $status = array();
    $status["zabbix_server"] = S_YES;  // of S_NO ...

    // keep other DB queries...

Never tested frontend on IIS

Though, it could be easily fixed. This error is harmless, it just try to check if zabbix server is running.

FYI: in 1.6.3 its check if server running even if it's on other server and probably this error is fixed too

You're cheating: making releases so that other people's post seem useless.

Ah I'm running 1.6.2, I'll upgrade to 1.6.3 then.

Thanks =)

Edit:
I upgraded and it worked,
