PHP server configuration (using Apache and IIS two ways) _php tips

First, use Apache

Installation of ≡php 5.2.5
1, to its official site download Php-5.2.5-win32.zip and decompression (said: Do not download and use its installer, this way although very automated, very intelligent, but there are many aspects of the restrictions, because it is not recommended. To a directory "D:\PHP\PHP".
Copy the php.ini-recommended from the PHP directory (D:\PHP\PHP) to the directory of Windows (Winnt directory) and rename it to PHP.ini, and find Extension_dir to modify it to extension _dir= "D:\PHP\PHP\ext". The same effect can be achieved with php.ini-dist, but it is recommended that you use php.ini-recommended, because this file performs performance and security optimizations on the default settings.
PHP.ini section explains:
Default_charset= "gb2312", modify the default character set, here, if preceded by a semicolon ";", remove this semicolon;
Register_globals=off is changed to Register_globals=on, which makes it effective to pass global variables;
Extension=php_dba.dll if preceded by a semicolon, remove the semicolon to the same below;
Extension=php_dbase.dll
Extension=php_gd2.dll GD Library to do drawings, generally used for graphics verification code;
Extension=php_mysql.dll is used to connect MySQL database;
Short_open_tag=on support <?php ...? > and <?...? >,off to support only <?php ...? >

Copy the Php5ts.dll and Libmysql.dll (used to support MySQL) files in the D:\PHP\PHP directory to the Windows system folder, namely: C:\windows\system32.

Installation of ≡apache 2.2.8
1, to its official site download Apache_2.2.8-win32-x86-no_ssl.msi and implementation.
Press the Next button 3 times, the installer requires you to enter your network domain (network domain name), server domain (server domains) and webmaster e-mail, and some words to fill in truthfully, this note is about the local self-built test environment, so casually, the first two fill localhost, the Mail can write their own.
When you enter next, the default installation path is "C:\Program files\apache Software foundation\apache2.2\", modify the path, and change to the "D:\PHP\Apache2.2" you want.
Then all the way down until the installation is over; At this point, open the PHP folder under D disk, you can see a folder named Apache2.2.

2, open IE, and then enter in the Address bar: "http://localhost" or "http://127.0.0.1" can see the success of the Apache installation completed page;

3, the conf/httpd.conf file configuration
1 Find "DocumentRoot", here is the directory where the specified home page is placed. The default is: "D:\PHP\Apache2.2\htdocs", you can use the default directory, you can also define one, such as: "d:/php." Note: Do not add "/" at the end of the table.
2 Find "DirectoryIndex", here is the default first page file name, you can add index.php in the back of the index.html. Multiple file names are separated by spaces.
3) Find
<directory/>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order Deny,allow
Deny from all
</Directory>
Modified to:
<directory/>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order Deny,allow
Allow from all
</Directory>
If you do not change here, you may be able to appear in the Don t have permission to access/on this server. Such error prompts, especially after changing the path of the default home page.

4) Establish virtual directory
Find <ifmodule alias_module> ... </IfModule>
Add Alias/webpath "D:\PHP\Apache2.2\phptxt"
<directory "D:\PHP\Apache2.2\phptxt" >
Options MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order Allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Where/webpath is the virtual directory name, and "D:\PHP\Apache2.2\phptxt" is the location where the file is stored.
The address of the visit is: http://localhost/webpath/

5 to enable the server to support PHP, in the appropriate place to add the following two sentence code
LoadModule php5_module "D:\PHP\PHP\php5apache2_2.dll"

AddType application/x-httpd-php. php. PhP3. Inc.

Note: Modifying the httpd.conf file requires a reboot of the Apache2.2 before it takes effect.

Ii. using IIS to parse PHP files
