I have recently installed Ubuntu on my Windows 8 setup. I am not aware of the details of how to set up Apache and PHP. Can any expert let me know the details.
Hi Amarion,
The steps to install Apache and PHP are as follows:
1) Download the Apache software and install in the system
2) Download the PHP software and install it
3) Open 'C:Program Files (x86)Apache Software FoundationApache2.2confhttpd.conf' in notepad
4) Add the following lines in the end of the file:
LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
PHPIniDir "C:/php"
5) Extract PHP in 'C:php'
6) Rename php.ini-dist to php.ini
7) Restart Apache
8) In the Apache-Dirhtdocs, create a file test.php with content '<?=phpinfo()?>'
9) Restart the system after the settings are completed
