PHP for Windows

Is there any software to run PHP-based programs under
Windows XP. I plan on temporarily relocating my web
page to my Windows XP box, but I also run a bulletin board that needs PHP to
run.

Is there also a MySQL implementation for Windows XP, since phpBB also needs
MySQL to run.

As part of the "day of silience" on Internet Radio, I plan
on temporarily relocating my web page to my PC, and
then turning off IIS on my machine, and taking my web
site dark as wll, but I need to have some implmentation
of PHP and MySQL for my PC, first, so my BBS that
I run as well will still be available until the time comes
to temporarily pull the plug on my web site.

yes look on php.net - DONT INSTALL THE WINDOWS BINARY as is has
problems and does not work properly use the zip package instead.

Yes.

I would also reccommend that you run them under apache not IIS as it
is much more streamlined(apache.org)

I just installed WAMP5. XAMPP seems a lot bigger. Does it have any
advantages?

I don't know. I think the second P stands for PERL - which I don't
really use anyway. I must have switched to XAMPP for a reason - but I
can't remember what it was! Maybe XAMPP seemed more up to date at the
time, but both seem to be equally well reviewed. If anyone knows any
particular advantages of one over the other, I'd be interested to hear
them too.

Do you know if it installed Perl as an executable file or as a DLL.
They call the DLL version mod_perl and supposedly works better
than perl.exe.

Can you confirm that? I think all you need to do is search the httpd.conf
file for perl.exe and if that shows up uncommented it installed the .exe
file. Not sure what they call the DLL, perhaps mod_perl.dll.

If you could check that would be great!

Thanks.

Yes. You can deploy Apache on Windows, or configure PHP to run under
IIS:

Yes: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html#downloads

PHPTriad works pretty well installing Apache, PHP and MySQL in a Windows
based machine.

Excuse my ignorance, but can you run both Apache and IIS on an XP
machine. E.g. what happens when you type localhost in the browser.

At the moment I use IIS (with ASP and M$Access), but I am converting to
PHP on my Linux Laptop having installed LAMP. It would be nice to do
the conversion on one machine.

Yes, they just have to listen on different ports.

>E.g. what happens when you type localhost in the browser.

For example:

http://localhost => Apache
http://localhost:4280 => IIS

You can set one of them to listen on a different port. For instance,
if you install MSAS or JSAS, the apache server that comes with them is
configured to listen on port 85 (instead of the standard http port
80). So you would refereto one of them as http://localhost/... (which
would sent the request to port 80) and the other one as http://localhost:85=
/..

But this is way off topic for a MySQL newsgroup.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.
