freelance84 Posted November 4, 2011 Author Share Posted November 4, 2011 easyPHP works pretty slickly on winXP and pointing to select repositories anywhere on your network is straight forward. It is just slow on win7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 zwamp is what I use - however I've updated some of the packages manually since they are out-of-date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuickOldCar Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I use appserv, others would seem to crash eventually. http://www.appservnetwork.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freelance84 Posted November 4, 2011 Author Share Posted November 4, 2011 Hmm, interesting... Have either of you guys managed to get the Apache Document Root to be an ethernet HDD located on an internal network? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Little Guy Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I like Wamp, You can easily update the php/apache config by just checking some check boxes, which for some reason I like better than opening it in a file editor saving then restarting...

Adam Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Hmm, interesting... Have either of you guys managed to get the Apache Document Root to be an ethernet HDD located on an internal network? Couldn't you just mount the hard drive as drive X: or something, and set the document root to that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Couldn't you just mount the hard drive as drive X: or something, and set the document root to that? Yup, which is what the one I listed does. Mounts it as as virtual hard drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freelance84 Posted November 4, 2011 Author Share Posted November 4, 2011 Hmm, cool. We don't actually have a network HDD yet we are just using the windows 'share' folder business which is painfully slow: We're currently looking at a drobo NAS system. They seem pretty sweet, and not over the top on price. OK, well cheers for the tips thus far... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
