 |
|
| I am wondering if there is some issue that I am missing. I go to the apache site and try to download 2.2 but every time I click the link for the windows version with installer I get a 404. I have tried every mirror and each one gives me the same result. Obviously there is nothing wrong w/ my internet connection, and I have recently downloaded PHP5 and PHPmyadmin, so I don't have issues w/ my browser. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Does anyone have any idea where I can actually download what I need? |

Nothing wrong on your end .. files simply do not exist anywhere. They simply may not be ready yet. I sent an email to the dev list pointing this out.
There are Apache Lounge's binaries here, they just do not have an installer. But it is pretty simple to install manually, and easier to upgrade w/o that .msi junk |

| I guess I am beyond simple then, lol. I downloaded the binaries from here and was absolutely clueless what to do with them. I looked around for instructions and found nothing. I went back to apache and picked up 2.0 because they at least had the .msi for that version. I installed 2.0 and that works, but am now struggling w/ getting php to work with 2.0. It doesn't help that I am trying to get all of this to work on a Vista machine. I get the feeling that it's going to take me awhile, lol. None of the VAMP tutorials out there are accurate with what I am experiencing. I need to get apache, php5, mysql ( already installed ), and tomcat all playing together nicely. I'm not off to a fast start by any stretch of the imagination. |

Extract that file into a temp folder, in said temp folder there is a file called ReadMe.txt.
Have a look at that. |

| Just did that. The readme was of no help whatsoever. Not sure what you were seeing in there that looked like any type of installation instructions. |

Install
-------
- You must first install the Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package.
Download and Install, if you not done it already, from:
www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9B2DA534-3E03-4391-8A4D-074B9F2BC1BF&displaylang=en
- Unzip the apache2 folder to c:/apache2 (that is the server root in the config).
Start apache in a DOS box:
>httpd.exe
Install as a service:
>httpd.exe -k install
ApacheMonitor:
Double click ApacheMonitor.exe, or put it in your Startup folder. |
