cooldude832 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I have a series of files used to update a database of items. We want to take it into a warehouse with a laptop (offline) to input products and then use that local database to update the main database. How can I do this (I just tried to take WAMP from my x86 vista system to a XP system and it didn't work) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btherl Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I don't understand what you are trying to do. Are you trying to migrate some php scripts from an x86 vista system to an x86 XP system and finding that they do not work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooldude832 Posted June 20, 2008 Author Share Posted June 20, 2008 No i've set up some scripts to update mysql and generate some simple reports. They are usually part of a panel on the primary site. Well we want to take it into the warehouse where there is no internet or network on multiple laptops and do an inventory. So each laptop would get a USB flash drive with the "server" and "scripts" and go in the warehouse record inventory and then I will add all the databases collected to the main database. I loaded wamp on my Vista system and ran it flawlessly stock off the USB drive, went plugged my drive into another computer and no good WAMP wouldn't initialize. Anyone got an idea on how to do it. I know how to get around the "no network", but getting the WAMP to run off different machines is the part I can't get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btherl Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Vista and XP have significant differences. I'm surprised it worked on vista but not XP .. usually it would be the other way round. That makes me think that perhaps the WAMP is configured for vista? You might try installing a second WAMP while using the XP system, and get that one working. Then users can run either the XP or Vista one from the USB drive, depending on what OS they have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooldude832 Posted June 20, 2008 Author Share Posted June 20, 2008 odds are I'll end up installing WAMP on each laptop, but i was trying to avoid it so I could hand out USB drives to each person and say go have fun. I'm trying Uniform Server now instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
