xIisModule not adding FastCGI handler

[saikovvuri]

Details of the scenario you tried and the problem that is occurring

Trying to register the php cgi module with IIS. However the Handler/Module "FastCgiModule" is not registered.

Verbose logs showing the problem

Suggested solution to the issue

Could not xIisModule could not work.
Had to run the below command outside of the configuration:

New-WebHandler -Name "PHP-FastCGI" -Path "*.php" -Verb "*" -Modules "FastCgiModule" -ScriptProcessor "c:\php\php-cgi.exe" -ResourceType Either

Version of the DSC module that was used

@saikovvuri did you get any error when running this configuration that could help?

[DCMattyG]

The issue is this command:

        Add-webconfiguration /system.webServer/handlers iis:\ -Value @{
            Name = $Name
            Path = $RequestPath
            Verb = $Verb -join ','
            Module = $ModuleType
            ScriptProcessor = $Path
        }

'Module' should be 'Modules'

This is the same issue as #305 maybe it should be merged?
