405 error loading a php file using fastCGI

Question

I'll start off by admitting I'm brand new to JWS. I really appreciate anyone willing to help with this configuration:
GOAL: Install the PHP Engine as a FastCGI Server
http://developers.sun.com/webtier/reference/techart/php2.html#4
I've read a lot of pages on this, and "thought" I had my configuration right.
I'm running SLES 10, and installed php fastcgi using yast2. The path to my php is /usr/bin/php-cgi5. I have copied that file to my plugins directory, as I heard it has to be in a location that web server can reach: /sun/webserver7/plugins/php/php-cgi5.
My configs:

I'm not convinced that I have specified all the php directories as requested. Perhaps something looks off there?
I currently have nothing configured in the fastCGI section of the web admin for the server.
The default page still loads just fine, it's only php files i'm having issue with.
The error I'm receiving is (IP removed):
for host X.X.X.X trying to GET /foo.php, handle-processed reports: HTTP2205: The request method is not applicable to the requested resource.
Thanks,
Nick

Thank you so much for the reply. yes, that appeared to be a typo in my config. Here's the new relevant section
<Object name="default">
AuthTrans fn="match-browser" browser="*MSIE*" ssl-unclean-shutdown="true"
NameTrans fn="restart" from="/" uri="/admingui/"
NameTrans fn="ntrans-j2ee" name="j2ee"
##Me added
# Make everything in URI "/php" come from"/path/to/php" and
# be executed as PHP using the directives in the Object
# named "fastcgi" (defined below)
NameTrans fn="assign-name" from="/php/*" name="fastcgi"
NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/php/*" name="fastcgi"
##End Me added
PathCheck fn="uri-clean"
PathCheck fn="check-acl" acl="default"

AddLog fn="flex-log"#####################
I wasn't sure from your prior message if both of the following lines should be in there:
NameTrans fn="assign-name" from="/php/*" name="fastcgi"
NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/php/*" name="fastcgi"
I tried with both, tried with just the first, and still getting a 405. Not sure if i need to, but I am restarting the instance after making changes.
I also tried putting my test file in both the webroot directory:
/sun/webserver7/https-myhostname/docs/foo.php
and in a php subdir of that
/sun/webserver7/https-myhostname/docs/php/foo.php
Still no luck.
Thanks,
Nick
