Re: PHP/MySQL on WinNT (was: Win98 vs Win2000)

Hi Klaus,

I had a lot of trouble trying to manually set up Apache, PHP & MySQL on Win2k
& WinME.  The way I found was the easiest to set all of this up was to download
a pre-configured bundle with everything in it and it was up and running straight
away.  I downloaded the PHPdev4 bundle from firepages at http://www.firepages.com.au/devindex.htm.
All you have to do after downloading it is unzip it to the C:\ drive and then
move the php.ini to your system directory as per the installation instructions.


HTH.
