21 March 2009 | HowTo | Tags: , , ,

Here comes a little howto install Apache2, PHP 5, MySQL 5 and phpMyAdmin for windows.

In this tutorial I will use easyPHP which is a packed for these applications.

First, go to www.easyphp.org for downloading easyphp 3.

After you have download it just install easyphp.

When it is installed run it and go to http://127.0.0.1/home/

Here is where you can run phpMyAdmin, add links to other folders that is not in www etc. Everything is done here but I can recommend you to update this things:

1. Right click on your trail icon. Config » PHP. Edit short_open_tag = Off to short_open_tag = On.

2. Add new user to your MySQL server. Go to http://127.0.0.1/home/ select phpmyadmin (mysql management) and go to privilege.  Here you can add users. Do NOT edit root password, it will cause problems.

If you have problem let me know and I will try to help you out.

Good Luck
