To test whether or not MySQL is working, you can execute the following commands: C:\mysql\bin\mysqlshow C:\mysql\bin\mysqlshow -u root mysql C:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin version status proc C

FIGURE A.4

The Services Control Manager allows you to configure the services running on your machine.

To test whether or not MySQL is working, you can execute the following commands:

C:\mysql\bin\mysqlshow

C:\mysql\bin\mysqlshow -u root mysql

C:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin version status proc

C:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root shutdown

These commands all work the same with the various Windows operating systems

MySQL will create two databases, the mysqland testdatabases The mysqldatabase will be

used for storing the permissions and access to the server The testdatabase is not required,

but gives you a safe place to execute commands to see if things are configured correctly

We are now ready to install Apache under Windows Let’s begin!

Installing Apache Under Windows

Apache 1.3 and later is designed to run on Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 The installer

will only work with the x86 family of processors, such as Intel’s However, Apache can also

run on Windows 95 and 98, but these have not been tested In all cases TCP/IP networking

must be installed Make sure you use the Winsock 2 library if you decide to install it under

either Win95 or Win98

It is recommended that you download the version of Apache for Windows with the exe

exten-sion if you are a beginner and don’t want to compile the source code This single file contains

the Apache server ready to be installed

Run the file you downloaded, apache_1_3_x_win32.exe by double-clicking on it

The installation process should look familiar to you As shown in Figure A.5, it looks similar

to many other Windows installers

A I

F IGURE A.5

The Apache installer is easy to use.

The install program will prompt you for the following:

• The directory to install Apache (The default is C:\Program Files\Apache

• The start menu name (The default is Apache Web Server.)

• The installation type The Typical option installs everything except source code The Minimum option does not install the manuals or source code Choose Custom if you want the source code

After installing Apache, you might need to edit the configuration files that live in the conf

directory We will look at editing the configuration file httpd.confwhen we install PHP

Running Apache for Windows

Essentially there are two ways you can run Apache:

• From a console window

• As a Windows service The service option is generally used with Window NT and Windows 2000 Use this option if you want Apache to start automatically when your machine boots, and to keep it running after you log off The console option is intended primarily for Windows 95 and Windows 98 users However, a server was introduced with version 1.3.13 that enables Win 95 and Win 98 users to run Apache as a service This server is considered highly experimental by its developers

We will install Apache as a service only after we have successfully tested it from the console window Therefore, we’ll first cover how to start Apache from the console and then cover the service method

Running Apache in a Console Window

To run Apache from the console window, select the Start Apache as console App option from

the Start menu This will open a console window and start Apache inside it This window will

remain active and open until you stop the Apache server

To stop it, you could either run the Shutdown Apache as Console App option from the Start

menu or open another command window and type the following (for version 1.3.3 and earlier):

C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache> apache -k shutdown

Unlike MySQL, Apache doesn’t start as a background process, so you can also stop it by

pressing Control-C or Control-Break in the Apache console window or closing the console

window (Again, this only works for versions older than 1.3.3.)

Running Apache as a Service

Before you can start Apache as a service, you must install it as a service Keep in mind that

multiple Apache services can be installed on one machine with different names and

configura-tions

To install the default Apache service (named Apache), run the Install Apache as Service (NT

only) option from the Start menu Open the Services window (in the Control Panel), select

Apache, and then click Start Apache will now be running, hidden in the background You can

later stop Apache by clicking Stop As an alternative to using the Services window, you can

start and stop the Apache service from the command line with

NET START apache

NET STOP apache

Note that this is similar to the MySQL server for NT and Windows 2000

Apache, unlike other NT and Win2000 applications, logs any error to its own error.logfile

found within the Apache server root folder It does not provide details through the standard

Event Log

As mentioned previously, multiple instances of Apache can be installed and run as services To

signal an installed Apache service to start, restart, or shut down, you will need to provide its

service name as follows:

apache -n “service name” -k start apache -n “service name” -k restart apache -n “service name” -k shutdown

For the default Apache service, the -nApache option is still required because the -k

commands without the -noption are directed at Apache running in a console window The

quotes are only required if the service name contains spaces

A I

Apache will be listening to port 80 (unless you changed the Port, Listen, or BindAddress direc-tives in the configuration files) after it starts To connect to the server and access the default page, launch a browser and enter this URL:

http://localhost/

This should respond with a welcome page similar to that shown in Figure A.1, and a link to the Apache manual If nothing happens or you get an error, look in the error.logfile in the logs

directory If your host isn’t connected to the Internet, you might have to use this URL:

http://127.0.0.1/

This is the IP address that means localhost

If you have changed the port number from 80, you will need to append :port_numberon the end of the URL

Note that Apache CANNOT share the same port with another TCP/IP application

Differences Between Apache for Windows and UNIX

Here are the main differences between Apache for Windows and Apache for UNIX:

• Apache for Windows is multithreaded, but it does not use a separate process for each request, as with UNIX Instead there are usually only two Apache processes running: a parent process and a child, which handles the requests Within the child, a separate thread handles each request So, process management directives are different

• The directives that accept filenames as arguments now must use Windows filenames instead of UNIX ones However, because Apache uses UNIX-style names internally, you must use forward slashes, not backslashes Drive letters can be used; if omitted, the drive with the Apache executable will be assumed

• Apache for Windows has the capability to load modules at runtime, without recompiling the server If Apache is compiled normally, it will install a number of optional modules

in the \modulesdirectory To activate these, or other modules, the new LoadModule directive must be used For example, to active the status module, use the following (in addition to the status-activating directives in access.conf):

LoadModule status_module modules/mod_status.so

See the online manual for details at

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_so.html#loadmodule

• Apache for Windows version 1.3 series is implemented in synchronous calls This poses

an enormous problem for CGI authors, who won’t see unbuffered results sent immedi-ately to the browser This is not the behavior described for CGI in Apache, but it is a

side-effect of the Windows port Apache 2.0 is making progress to implement the expected asynchronous behavior, and we hope to discover that the NT/2000 implementa-tion enables CGIs to behave as documented

If you need to enable Apache with SSL in Windows, you will need to compile the Apache

source code Refer to the Apache.org, OpenSSL.org, and ModSSl.org sites for more

informa-tion on how to do this, or look at the UNIX installainforma-tion for reference It’s not difficult, but will

require more work

Installing PHP for Windows

Okay, now we are ready to install PHP for Windows Make sure you stop Apache before you

start the PHP installation process The process is extremely simple if you understand that,

unlike PHP 3, PHP 4 is divided into several components, which require that several DLLs be

used That is, you can’t run PHP in its CGI mode as a standalone executable You must ensure

that the DLLs in the distribution exist in a directory (any directory) that is in the Windows

path The easiest way to do this is to copy these DLLs to your SYSTEM(Windows 9x) or

SYSTEM32(Windows NT) directory, which is under your Windowsdirectory The DLLs that

need to be copied are MSVCRT.DLL (it might already be there) and PHP4TS.DLL

We have provided the outline here as a “cookbook” installation guide You should have no

problem installing and setting up PHP in your Windows machine, if you follow it

1 Start by copying the php.ini-dist to your ‘%WINDOWS%’directory and rename it to

‘php.ini’ The ‘%WINDOWS%’variable usually points to C:\WINDOWSfor Windows 9x and

C:\WINNTfor NT servers

2 Edit the php.inifile and change the extension_dir setting to point to the directory

con-taining the DLL modules for the extensions Set the doc_root to point to the Web servers document root, that is, the outside visible root directory of the server

3 Uncomment out in the php.inifile the modules you would like to load when PHP starts

Uncomment the extension=php_*.dlllines to load the modules Note that some mod-ules require additional libraries installed on the system for the module to work correctly

Also note, that MySQL support is now built in to PHP 4; it doesn’t require loading via this method

Now all you need to do is edit the httpd.conffile in the Apache conf directory to configure

Apache to work with the PHP CGI binary Add the following directives to the configfile

• ScriptAlias /php/ “c:/path-to-your-php-dir/”

• AddType application/x-httpd-php php

• AddType application/x-httpd-php phtml

• Action application/x-httpd-php “/php/php.exe “

A I

Note that with the AddType directive, you can specify how Apache should handle the various file extensions In the case previously mentioned, we specify that Apache treats any file con-taining php and phtml as a PHP-interpreted file You could, for example, treat regular htm and html files as PHP scripts by adding the following directive:

• AddType application/x-httpd-php html

• AddType application/x-httpd-php htm You will find more information about other directives that you can set in the configuration file

at the Apache Web site,http://www.apache.org

Let’s Test Our Work

Start Apache and test to ensure that you have PHP working Create a test.phpfile and add the following lines to it:

<? phpinfo() ?>

Make sure the file is in the document root directory of Apache and then pull it up on the browser, as follows

http://localhost/test.php

or

http://your-ip-number-here/test.php

If you see a page similar to that shown in Figure A.2, you know that you have Apache and PHP working together Remember to test for MySQL working with them Do this by writing a simple PHP script to connect to the server and insert/extract some data on the database

Adding PHP and MySQL to Microsoft IIS and PWS

This section will cover how to add PHP and MySQL support to IIS with the ISAPI (php4isapi.dll) module It assumes that you have read and installed MySQL as described in the previous section

The first thing you need to do is to install the DLLs as mentioned in the previous section—that

is, install the MSVCRT.DLL and PHP4TS.DLL to the Windowsdirectory Also make sure that you know what to put into the test.phpfile as described previously

Installation Notes for Microsoft IIS

Here are the “cookbook” procedures for the installation of PHP in Microsoft Internet Information Server:

1 Copy either the php.ini-distor the php.ini-optimizedfile into your Windows direc-tory, and rename it to ‘php.ini’ Change the defaults by modifying any of the directives inside it

2 Start the Microsoft Management Console (it might appear as the Internet Services

Manager, either in your Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack branch or in the Control Panel, Administrative Tools under Windows 2000)

3 Right-click the Web server node and select Properties Under ISAPI Filters, add a new

ISAPI filter This dialog box is shown in Figure A.6 Use PHP as the filter name, and supply a path to the php4isapi.dllthat is included in the PHP 4 distribution

A I

F IGURE A.6

Adding the PHP interpreter as an ISAPI filter.

4 Under Home Directory, click the Configuration button and add a new entry to the

Application Mappings Use the path to the php4isapi.dllas the executable, supply php

as the extension, leave Method exclusions blank, and check the Script engine check box

5 Stop IIS completely by typing ‘net stop iisadmin’on a command prompt

6 Now start IIS again by typing ‘net start w3svc’on a command prompt

7 Put the test.phpfile under your Web server’s document root The test.phpfile will

contain the following line:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

If it works, you should see something similar to Figure A.2

Installation Notes for Microsoft PWS

1 Install the php.inifile and the DLLs as mentioned previously

2 Edit the enclosed PWS-php4.regfile to reflect the location of your php4isapi.dll Forward slashes should be escaped, for example:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\w3svc\parameters\ Script Map] “.php”=”C:\\Program Files\\PHP\\php4isapi.dll”

3 In the PWS Manager, right-click a given directory you want to add PHP support to, and select Properties Check the Execute check box, and confirm

That’s it! At this point, PWS should have built-in PHP support

Other Configurations

You can set up PHP and MySQL with other Web servers such as Omni, HTTPD, and Netscape Enterprise Server These will not be covered in this appendix, but you can find information on how to set them up at the MySQL and PHP Web sites:

http://www.MySQL.com

and

http://www.php.net

respectively
