Tools Needed! PHP MySQL

Recommended Posts

Do you mean that you need to have a local 'test' server installed on your laptop?If so, Google XAMPP or Google WAMP. Both are one-click installers that add the ability to run scripts on your local machine as if they were on a Web Hosting Server.They both add php, mySql and an Apache Server that duplicate your Web Hosting account.There are Tutorials in the Tutorial section here on the Xisto about setting them up and using them. Good Luck.

All right. Where can I get the Apache Server. I went to his official web-site: http://www.apache.org/ and did not know what to download. I clicked the download link, and it lead me to some another page which contains a full list of different folders. Could you tell me what I should download exactly.

The link jlhaslip provided is for XAMPP. If you install that, you will get Apache, MySQL and PHP installed and configured automatically. Many people find it easier than doing it themselves (although I have always found it easier to do it manually <_< ).

If you just want to install the latest version of Apache, use one of the following links:

Windows MSI: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

Of course, on Linux, you can also use whatever package manager you like and go for a one-click installation and setup.
