A brief discussion on the establishment of a local WAMP environment

The so-called WAMP environment is the Windows Apache Mysql PHP development and running environment. This is the most basic step for us to learn PHP development. , although there are a lot of integrated development environments now, but they still have to be learned as basic skills.

In the process of building PHP locally, PHP environment configuration is a crucial part. This article briefly explains the PHP local environment configuration. For everyone to learn!

Configuring Windows Apache Mysql PHP development and runtime environment

Install Apache

Get Apache Server download

This is a window executable program that includes the open ssl module. Run it directly and install it in the directory where we need to place it. Pay attention to using port 80, so that you can access the local HTTP Server without specifying an additional port number

After everything is installed, open the browser and enter http://localhost to test. If "It Works" appears, the installation is successful

Install Mysql

Get Mysql download

Install Mysql, this is a packaged installation package, just follow the prompts to install it

There is also Mysql Workbench, which is a visual Mysql management software that can be downloaded together or use other convenient management clients.

Use the management client to connect to the local Mysql. If you can connect, it means the installation is successful

Install PHP

Get PHP download. You can see multiple versions available for us to choose from:

If the Apache version is 1 or 2, then download the VC6 compiled version

If you choose IIS as the Server, use the version compiled with VC9

X86 represents a 32-bit operating system, and X64 represents a 64-bit operating system

Thread Safe and Non Thread Safe depend on how the Web Server executes PHP. If it is ISAPI, a dll needs to be called to process user requests. Since the relevant dll will not disappear immediately after processing, thread safety checks need to be performed to use multi-threads to improve efficiency. It is better to use Thread Safe. If it is Fast CGI, since it only runs in a single thread, there is no need to perform security checks under thread concurrency. Removing thread safety checks is equivalent to canceling unnecessary system consumption and thereby improving running speed. It is better to use Non Thread Safe.

There is also a direct installation package, which can be installed directly, but we choose the ZIP package for manual installation. Firstly, manual installation is more flexible, and secondly, you can understand the internal structure of PHP, which is more important for further use of PHP in the future. oh.

Extract the compressed package to your target disk directory. If the decompressed directory is similar to C:php, please note that it is best not to use spaces between directories, because some Web Servers may not support paths with spaces.

Configure the environment variables of php5ts.dll Lujin. Some dlls under the root directory contain the name of the Web Server. These related Server modules can make the Web Server run PHP more efficiently. All modules need to use php5ts.dll, so the system needs to know its location. The search order is generally:

The execution location of php.exe, or the execution directory of the Web Server (usually bin) if the Web Server uses the server module

Path included in the environment variable PATH

Add the current root directory to PATH, so that no matter how the Web Server is configured, the system can find php5ts.dll

To configure PHP initialization information, just copy php.ini-production and rename it to php.ini. PHP will automatically find and read the php.ini file when it is running. In addition, if using the NTFS format on Windows NT, 2000, XP or 2003, make sure that the user running the Web Server has read permissions on php.ini.

Associate PHP and Apache. After this configuration, Apache will have PHP parsing capabilities. There are two ways to set up PHP and Apache to work together. One is to install it as CGI, and the other is to install it as an Apache module. As mentioned above, the Server module is better, so I installed it this way and just added the following three lines to Apache's httpd.conf.

The code is as follows:

LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll"

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

PHPIniDir "C:/php"

Integrated detection

Finally, let’s check whether our environment is working properly.

Create a new text name with the extension test.ini

Add the following code to the file:

The code is as follows:

phpinfo();

Place it in the htdocs directory of Apache Server

Then enter http://localhost/test.php in the browser. If the PHP version and component related statistics appear, it means it is working normally. Among them, mysqlnd is enabled, indicating that the Mysql driver is also enabled normally.

Such a WAMP environment has been set up. This environment is the basis for development and learning, so I will introduce it here first. Finally, I wish everyone a happy study and an early counterattack. . .
