Same here, only Apache gets port 8080 and 443 (SSL). I'm pushing WAPP for new projects here but we have a zillion ASP.NET / SQL Server projects which means I have to have both IIS and Apache on my machine. WAMP has already been mentioned, but WAPP's mighty fine too using PostgreSQL rather than MySQL. You can find wonderful all-in-one installers at www.bitnami.com as well for those and other open source bundles. I'm about a month new to PHP / PostgreSQL as well. My top resources have are: PHP Manual (this is golden) http://php.net/manual/en/index.php PHP Type comparison table (within the manual but worth it's own bookmark) http://php.net/types.comparisons NetBeans for an IDE (http://www.netbeans.org/) with Xdebug for debugging (http://xdebug.org/index.php) Stack Overflow (for general reading in the PHP tag) http://stackoverflow.com/ Matthew Hartman Programmer/Analyst Information Management, ICP Kingston General Hospital (613) 549-6666 x4294 -----Original Message----- From: Jacob Kruger [mailto:jacobk@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, May 29, 2009 4:59 AM To: php-windows@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: getting started - need pointers That's partly why I run IIS on port 80, and the apache from WAMP on port 81, so they can run alongside each other.
