Hi oscar,
i downloaded php-4.3.10-installer.exe from http://www.php.net, do i need other software such as IIS, PWS and Xitami to support it?
if yes, are they free, which free one is better, and download site?
cheers

You just need PHP 4.3.10 and Apache 2.0 to run a php enabled webserver on your PC for testing, or plain old curiousity
.
I suggest visiting the php.net site and downloading their documentation - it contains a helpful installation overview. I also suggest dropping the installer in favour of the windows binaries without an installer. It may seem a task - but manually editing php.ini to get things set up can actually be a lot simpler.
There are a few indepth tutorials - just be certain they are actually referring to Apache 2 and PHP 4.3 before using them... If they're out of date they won't help much.

Better download the zip file : http://php.net/get/php-4.3.10-Win32.zip/from/a/mirror
It has all the files - the exe has a stripped down version.
Manually configuring is better though not easy at first.

Hi all,
I have dowloaded 3 software, they look quite confused:
1. php-4.3.10-installer.exe
2. php-4.3.10-Win32.zip
3. apache_1.3.29-win32-x86-no_src.exe
(and apache_1.3.29-win32-x86-src.exe)
I don't think I need to install all of them to get php work for my PC.
Now please tell me I should install wich one first, then second, then ...
thanks

1. php-4.3.10-installer.exe Get Rid of This
2. php-4.3.10-Win32.zip Unzip to C:\PHP or wherever
3. apache_1.3.29-win32-x86-no_src.exe First Install this - Ver 2.0 is good if its for your single PC
(and apache_1.3.29-win32-x86-src.exe)
configure C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\conf\httpd.conf
http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.wi ... pache1.php

I suggest to use Foxserv - http://sourceforge.net/projects/foxserv/
"FoxServ is an Apache / mySQL / PHP installer package for Windows and Linux. Unlike NuShpere or PHPTriad, FoxServ features the latest version of all included pacakges, user defined configuration during installation, PHP as a module, PEAR, and the Zend Opt"
It will configure everything automatically to you.

I try to find version 2 (similar to apache_1.3.29-win32-x86-no_src.exe).
but I only find
httpd-2.0.53-win32-x86-src.zip
is this one the update version of apache_1.3.29-win32-x86-no_src.exe?
if not, where is right download link?
if yes, why do they release same software in many different ways?
thanks.
