Jonas Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Ok, so I downloaded a zip file of Apache Server 2.0.55 for Windows. When I open the zip file however, I don't see any files named setup or .exe or anything like that...I really don't know how to do this stuff, has anyone done this before?

The thing about verification? :(The problem is I don't see any types of files I'm used to when installing new programs on windows. I'm completely lost with this stuff. :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott100 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.apa...-x86-no_ssl.msiDownload that to the desktop, it's one .exe and when you click on it you get the installation wizard... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aspnetguy Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Are you sure you downloaded the Windows Installer version??? It should be a breeze with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpoer Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 You might also be interested in XAMPP, a single installer (exe I assume) that installs not only Apache, but also MySQL and PHP, with the PHPmyAdmin application (a PHP program to manage the MySQL database - cool stuff).

Jonas Posted March 29, 2006 Author Share Posted March 29, 2006 Cool. I'll look into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pulpfiction Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Hi,Similar to XAMPP, Look for EasyPHP, contains Apache | MySQL | PHP | PhpMyAdmin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
