sydewyndr Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to help me with this question. I'm extremely new at PHP. My company currently has a web module that is made up mostly of PHP, hosted on a web server. It works great. Using DreamWeaver, I've successfully modified some things here and there.But I need to create a demo version of this module that can run on a stand-alone computer without an internet connection. The computer is a PowerBook with OSX 10.4.I understand that OSX comes with Apache and PHP already installed, and I successfully started Apache, but I can't find any useful resources for turning on PHP. At least, they don't go along with what I'm seeing on my machine. Can somebody please tell me if I'm going in the right direction, and what I need to do to make this work? I simply want my boss to be able to insert a CD, and view a page in his offline browser that will successfully demo our PHP module.Thanks again.

Psycho Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 There are several all-in-one packages that you can just download and immediately have a working Apache/PHP/MySQL environement. I use XAMPP on windows machines - there is a MAC version as well: http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-macosx.html Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/34471-need-help-running-php-site-stand-alone/#findComment-162374 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycho Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Also: Don't know if you can do the same on the MAC version (I see no reason not), but I can run XAMPP on my thumb drive. Just plug in another computer and start the server from the control panel and I take my development environment with me.

sydewyndr Posted January 16, 2007 Author Share Posted January 16, 2007 Thanks so much. I'll give XAMPP a try. If anybody else reading this has any other ideas, feel free to post as I'll be checking back soon.
