- How to set up a server with Apache , PHP , MySQL , Perl , phpMyAdmin
- =====
- Let's start by installing apache (http server) . you can download the
- apache installer on www.apache.org . download the verion you like ,
- even thought , in win systems i recomand verion 2 (this tutorials is
- for apache 2) . here is a link for it :
- Code:
- http://apache.mirror.nedlinux.nl/dist/httpd/binaries/win32/apache_2.0.52-win32-x86-no_ssl.msi
- for a faster mirror , visit http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi .
- After downloading the file (.msi installer) , run it . The installation wizard
- is a next , next , finish 'work' ... The installer will ask you some details like
- your server name , your server adress and the admin's mail adress . if
- you have a domain name or a hostname , enter the info's like this :
- Code:
- Server Name : your_domain.org
- Server Adress : www.your-domain.org
- Admin Email : admin@yourdomain.org
- if you don't have one , you should get on e free at :
- Code:
- http://www.no-ip.org/
- Check the 'Run as a service for all users on port 8080' option and click
- next , finish to fiinish the instllation . Advice : Install it in c: (he creates
- a folder for it , don't worry) to make sure you configure it easyer .
- If you are finished , open up a browser and write in the adress bar :
- Code:
- http://localhost/
- If you will see a 'Test Page for Apache Installation' , everything works .
- =====
- Let's install PHP . download the archives from www.php.net . Here is a
- direct link for verion 4.3.9 :
- Code:
- http://nl.php.net/get/php-4.3.9-Win32.zip/from/this/mirror
- Make sure you download the archive and not the installer . Ok! after
- downloading it , extract the archive in c:/php (this is to simplify paths) .
- Now , open up c:/apache/conf/httpd.conf and search for this line :
- Code:
- #LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so
- under that line , add this :
- Code:
- LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
- LoadModule php4_module "c:/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll"
- AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
- AddType application/x-httpd-php .php3
- AddType application/x-httpd-php .php4
- Now search for this line :
- Code:
- <Directory "C:/Apache2/htdocs">
- Change :
- Code:
- Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
- #
- # AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
- # It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:
- # Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
- #
- AllowOverride None
- into :
- Code:
- Options Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks MultiViews ExecCGI
- #
- # AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
- # It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:
- # Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
- #
- AllowOverride All
- This will allow .htaccess support on your server and make sure you can
- see the content of a folder without getting a 403 forbidden error .
- Now search for :
- Code:
- DirectoryIndex index.html index.var.html
- and change it into :
- Code:
- DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
- Save the file and restart apache . (you can restart it by pressing the
- Restart apache server shortcut in the start menu or by writing :
- Code:
- net apache restart
- in a command prompt window . Ok!
- you have php working for your server icon_wink.gif . Now let's configure php and
- make sure it really works ! Open up c:/php/php.ini (php.ini-dist renamed)
- and search for this paragraph :
- Code:
- max_execution_time = 60 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
- max_input_time = 60 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
- memory_limit = 5M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB)
- you should change this to whatever you want . here is an option i use :
- Code:
- max_execution_time = 300 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
- max_input_time = 300 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
- memory_limit = 5M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB)
- Now search for :
- Code:
- register_globals = Off
- and change it into :
- Code:
- register_globals = On
- Search for :
- Code:
- extension_dir = ".\"
- and change it into :
- Code:
- extension_dir = "c:/php/extensions"
- assuming you have installed php in c: ...
- Search for :
- Code:
- ;Windows Extensions
- ;Note that MySQL and ODBC support is now built in, so no dll is needed for it.
- and uncomment (delete the ; in the front) the following modules :
- Code:
- extension=php_bz2.dll
- extension=php_db.dll
- extension=php_gd2.dll
- extension=php_java.dll
- extension=php_msql.dll
- extension=php_pdf.dll
- extension=php_pgsql.dll
- extension=php_sockets.dll
- Ok! now let's change the smtp settings (this is good icon_smile.gif for you mail()
- function . you need this !!!) Search for :
- Code:
- [mail function]
- ; For Win32 only.
- SMTP =
- smtp_port = 25
- ; For Win32 only.
- ;sendmail_from =
- and change to :
- Code:
- [mail function]
- ; For Win32 only.
- SMTP = mail.isp.org
- smtp_port = 25
- ; For Win32 only.
- sendmail_from = mail@your_domain.org
- if you don't have a mail server or :
- Code:
- [mail function]
- ; For Win32 only.
- SMTP = localhost
- smtp_port = 25
- ; For Win32 only.
- sendmail_from = mail@your_domain.org
- if you have a mail server ...
- Save the files . Now let's finalize the php installation . copy all the dll's
- from c:/php/dlls into c:/windows/system32 . copy c:/php/php4ts.dll into
- c:/windows/system32/ and copy php.ini from your folder php into
- windows and system32 folder . restart apache . open up notepad and
- add this into the file :
- Code:
- <?php
- phpinfo();
- ?>
- save this file in your htdocs folder (c:/apache/htdocs) as info.php and
- open up a browser . in the adress bar write :
- Code:
- http://localhost/info.php
- you should see php's configuration in a table . a looong file icon_smile.gif
- you can optionaly install zend optimizer . i am using it ... it doesn't
