Installing Php-Mysql-Apache-phpMyAdmin isnt "a walk in the park" for spoiled Windows users. Those who have not heard of Php-Mysql-Apache-phpMyAdmin or want to know how exactly you install these softwares please warp2 DigitalOracle's snipertech:- php tutorial So i always wondered "why wasnt there a single step Installer for PHP-MySql-Apache-phpMyAdmin?" (should have googled this one). And e-novative PHP have answered my prayer..err...question. Anyone who has installed all these on windows knows exactly the pain to setup, copy, edit ini, and test PHP-Apache-Mysql. So e-novative released ePHP(may i add free) for Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows XP only which ... (hit read more for e-php download link)
is a zipped file containing/bundling "PHP 4.2.3, Apache 1.3.27, MySql 4.0.4 and phpMyAdmin 2.3.2" along with setup.bat file which executes all the commands where php-apache-mysql-phpMyAdmin are properly unzipped; php.ini is copied in windows dir. and at the end a test.php( ?phpinfo.php? ) page is opened to show confirmation of sucessfull installation.
So this single bundled file not only saves installation time but also saves time which might be spent on hunting for these files on various sites. I hope they continue releasing updates in conjuntion with new releases of PHP 4.2.3, Apache 1.3.27, MySql 4.0.4 and phpMyAdmin 2.3.2
To install e-novative PHP, unpack the zip archive, for example to c:ephp, then start setup.bat
