Darklink Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Come to think of it, I've never heard of ANYONE installing php on a vista operating system. I would be interested if knowing if anyone has had any successful installations on the system. Although I am absolutely sure it's possible to install it on Vista. I wander if a preset LAMP installation will work such as EasyPHP. Although those are purely for development purposes only. You wouldn't expect to use vista for a server!

jonsjava Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Yup. Xampp works fine with vista. Gotta unblock port 80, and 3306 (when it asks you), otherwise, it's fine.

wildteen88 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I have installed AMP on vista with no problems. Make sure you run Apache under Windows XP Service Pack 2 compatibly mode along with administrator privileges. When installing Apache and MySQL you should right click the installer files and selecting Run as Administrator.

TreColl Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I use WAMP on vista... for testing purposes only... Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/109024-php-impossible-to-instal-on-vista/#findComment-562992 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gijew Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I run and develop on a wamp/vista setup at work just fine while ALL of our production servers run fedora. Granted I can't get Firebug to install in FF3 for the life of me. My only real complaint is that it's quite a bit slower than a normal LAMP setup.

peranha Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I have windows vista on a laptop, and I was able to install PHP, MySQL, and Apache all separate and they work fine not that I got all the bugs figured out. There were some issues with MySQL installing correctly, but I had to edit one of the DLLs to get it to work correctly.
