Applications, WordPress, Permalinks Errors

[pleskhost]

When i use Plesk Applications, WordPress installer i get some errors use Permalinks on all websites whit wordpress on the server.

If I use the default ones like:

index.php/2011/06/25/sample-post/ =>> /index.php/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/
index.php/2011/06/sample-post/ =>> /index.php/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/
index.php/archives/123 =>> /index.php/archives/%post_id%

They all work fine!

BUT if i try use Custom Structure it not works at all! - Only if I use: /index.php/ front of all..

Do some have some kind of work around for this, so it will work like normal where ect. I can use: /%postname% or some similar.

I want the link to be: www.sitename.com/%postname% - and NOT www.sitename.com/index.php/%postname%/

And it is some Windows Problem – whould it be fixed host Plesk on Linux instead?

It`s seems like that the only "issues" i can get/find use Plesk, applications, auto wordpress installer.

Hope some can help me out!

More informations:
Even if i install Word Press manually it still give error when try use permalinks.

I do have another Windows 2008 R2 whit IIS7 when I install Wordpress there, it works fine!
So it seems like it`s some issues on PLESK server options/setup or some??

I did think mabye was a problem whit WordPress, but not seems like that!
It more sems like the way "it been handel on the server whit plesk" are diffent that normal iis7 or some??

Hope some can help me out!

Also did try make a web.config whit this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Main Rule" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="index.php/{R:0}" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
</system.webServer>
</configuration>

But when i try use web.config - 500 - internal server error.

Did try follow this one: http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/280/install-wordpress-on-iis/

You have to Install the URL Rewrite module for IIS. http://www.iis.net/download/urlrewrite
Than you can follow the instructions from Wordpress.
