apache+php+mysql+app installer for windows?

Hello,

Is there any installer which can create an installation kit with apache, php, mysql and a php application which can be delivered to windows users?

These users have no installation/setup knowledge.
They should install the app in their intranet or single computer network and work with it.

Is there any installation program which can do such a "complicate" stuff?

thank you.

Here's a couple you might want to try.
PortableWebAp - Tiny program that you can place on a thumbdrive if you want. Cost 10 USD.

Apache2Triad - Much larger, but great for an easy Apache, MySQL, PHP, OpenSSL, PgSQL, phpmyadmin, pgmyadmin, etc... install. About 400 MB.

My personal favorite is called WAMP, it installs Apace, PHP and Mysql on a windows box quickly and easily, your up and running in almost no time whatsoever. You can find it at http://www.en.wampserver.com/

Hope that helps

For your purpose, I'd suggest PortableWebAp. It costs like $20 USD to get, but it's small enough to fit on a thumb-drive and run a full fledged dev server. I used it for a bit until I got my laptop

SimplyBea:
AppServ is just another application that you download an it installs Apache, PHP, mySQL, phpMyAdmin for you.

I personally like PortableWebAp.... but whatever works for your situation is what you should use.

xampp

I.ve installed Xampp with no problems on both Windows XP Home and Windows XP Pro, and in both cases they have worked without any issues. although with my limited expertise I acepted the defaults.

It installed Apache, php, MySQL, and PhpMyAdmin.

I guess this shows how different installers suite different individuals and diffeent configurations of pc.

It's rather interesting that there are that many different installers out there for setting up a WAMP server. I suppose it's a real testament to the apache/mysql/php combination.
