SERVER3.Installation of Apache

Open the file. A windows will open guiding you to the installation. You have to accept the

conditions and configure the installation as this example:

Once finished the installation you'll see an icon like this: This means that Apache is

correctly running. Going to http://localhost (or http://localhost:8080 in case of port 8080

installation) should appear a text written It works! Otherwise, control the section Problems in

this tutorial

http://localhost/http://localhost:8080/http://localhost/http://localhost:8080/

SERVER4.Installation of PHP5

4.1.Installation of the applicationOpen the installer. Click next acepting the conditions. Select the C:/php path to install.

Otherwise your installation won't work.You will asked to select the type of module. You have to

select Apache 2.2.x Module

Then, you have to put C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\conf asApache configuration directory.

In the next screen, select the option Entire feature will be installed on local drive in all the tree

SERVER4.2 Configuring PHP as a module of Apache

Sometimes, the PHP installation don't allow you to restart the service again. So we will

configure the file manually.

Open as Administrator C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/conf/httpd.conf

At the end of the file, delete the last paragraph that PHP installer created (if not indicated that PHP

installer do it that, don't delete anything) and write:

LoadModule php5_module c:/php/php5apache2_2.dllAddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php

You should uncomment (delete the # symbol in the line) the option ShortTags = On if its not,

otherwise the tags wont be read

Go to Apache monitor and restart the service clicking RestartNow, create a file into the directory C:/Program Files/Apache Software

Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs called info.php with the notepad:

Save the file and go to the URL http://localhost/info.php (orhttp://localhost:8080/info.php in case

of port 8080 installation)

You should have a page like this:

If you dont see this, control the Problems section, at the end of this document.

http://c/c:/php/php5apache2_2.dllhttp://localhost/http://localhost:8080/http://localhost:8080/http://c/c:/php/php5apache2_2.dllhttp://localhost/http://localhost:8080/

SERVER4.2.1 Apache SecuritySearch the line like this:

Options Includes Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViewsThen remove word Indexes and save the file. The line should look like this one:

Options Includes FollowSymLinks MultiViews

This won't allow users to navigate into Apache directory. You should also hide your Apache

information. Search for this lines and uncomment it, or create it:

ServerSignature Off

ServerTokens Prod

This for assure that Apache is using a user:

User apacheGroup apache

Ensure that files outside the web root are not served:

Order Deny,Allow

Deny from allOptions None

AllowOverride None

Order Allow,DenyAllow from all

Turn off directory browsing:

Options -Indexes

Turn off server side includes:

Options -Includes

If your server is linux there are more security options. But this is a guide for windows.

There are a lot of security options that we don't include because depends on the use of our server.

4.2.3 Install a PHP editorWe reccomend to install a PHP editor to create your PHP documents.

You can use Dreamweaver, from Adobe. As this is not a guide for this editor, follow THIS LINKto

know how to install it

SERVER5.Installation of MySQL

This step is simple, because consist only in the use of an installer application, but we have to

follow the instructions to have a correct installation.

Open the installer. Accept conditions and click next.

You are pleased to select an option. You have to select Developer Default that will install all the

necessary programs and components.

The program will control if you are ready for the installation. Probably the second option is

not ready, you have to click Execute and the program will install the necessary programs. For

Windows 2008 please visit the Problems section, 6th problem.

Now start the installation. You will see something like this:

SERVEROnce finished, you will be asked about the type of machine. Select a Server Machine

Then, you will configure MySQL with a password. The other options are good in that way.



10/12


SERVERAnd you will finish the installation. This is the server console. You can create a database

also with Workbench, also installed.

6.Installation of phpMyAdminDownload the ZIP file and open it.

Unzip all the elements (not the folder) and leave it into a folder called phpmyadmin on the htdocs

directory on Apache.

Now well open the file into phpmyadmin/libraries/config.default.php and we will search this line:

$cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] = '';

And we will write the absolute path of phpMyAdmin:

$cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] = 'http://localhost/phpmyadmin/';

Now we will search:

$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = '';

And we will write whatever. This is for encrypting the files.

$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'to be or not to be';

You now need to indicate the type of authentification for entering phpMyAdmin. Set this on

Cookie:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';

Copy libmysql.dll fromMySQL/MySQL Server 5.5/lib tophpmyadmin/bin

Uncoment the line in C:/php/php.ini

extension=php_mysqli.dllThis should be enough to install phpMyAdmin.

Now, you should be able to enterhttp://localhost/phpmyadmin

http://localhost/phpmyadminhttp://localhost/phpmyadmin

SERVER

7.Problems

1.Apache: make_sock: could not bind to adress 0.0.0.0:80 Thats because a program in your

computer is already using port 80 and Apache cannot listen to port 80. Install Apache in port 8080

(or if you know what program has a conflict, change its port)2.Apache: Syntax error. The program tells you the number of line. So search for it (its always

something that you write, otherwise you have to reinstall) and correct it.

3.PHP: If you see the code you have to control the option ShortTags, as descripted before, that

should be ON. Maybe is also a problem with the httpd.conf file. Control that you have written the

correct paths.

4.PHP: If you dont see anything or get an error, maybe you hadnt save the file info.php in the

correct directory. Remember that entering http://localhost is the same that enter into the directori of

Apache called htdocs.

5.MySQL: In the installation, I dont see all those things installing. Control that you have selectedthe right option.

6.MySQL: The program Microsoft Visual runtime doesnt install it for itself. Try to do it manually

SERVERsearching in google. If you cant (Ive encountered problems in Windows Server 2008) install the

Server option in the first question of the installation. You will install only a thing but should be

enough.

7.phpMyAdmin: You got the error: No se encontr la extensin mysqli. Por favor revisa laconfiguracin PHP. Try to do all the steps in this guide in the installation of phpMyAdmin as descripted. If your

problem continues, you can install EasyPHP that will install all automatically.

Remember that, if you followed this tutorial, you should uninstall before all programs (Apache,

MySql and PHP)

You can install EasyPHP clicking in the image below, orHERE. After, create an user
