for a client who has got windows server2012R2.
He want some project to be done regarding doctor and patient appointment etc., which I can do in Yii2, but am not sure, whether the same can be installed on windows server2012R2.
So anyone knows that it will work smoothly then I can accept the project else will deny it.
First, install a WAMP environment in this platform, and then check the Yii requirements check tool with php requirements.php from the root directory of the project. By reading in the Yii forum (https://forum.yiiframework.com) you will find a lot of people running Yii2 apps on Windows. I'm 99% sure it should work as everything Yii depends on is multi platform.

I have not every used, or even installed the Zend Framework.
I have inherited a website built in the ZF and only have FTP access to the deployed version that is live.
Is it possible to simply download the files that are live and run then locally within XAMPP, as i have tried this but ther server has lots of short cut director mappings and no ZEND?
I am assuming not, so can i install Zend and then download the site to my local machine for it then to work?
Any assistance on this would be helpful as have no idea about it, whether i need source files or not.
Thanks
Shaun
once you have the project downloaded in xampp. make sure you have composer installed and configured.
delete the vendor folder inside your project then run
composer install
under the root of your application.
Is it possible to run Cake 3.0 or higher on Azure Web Apps? I have an app running locally on a 3+ version but when I installed CakePHP on my Azure web app it's running 2.5.1.
I feel like it's just a matter of uploading all of the newer files and the db created for the 3.0 version but scared there is some kind of write access the new cake will need thus preventing it from running and burning a ton of my time.
I started learning PHP 3 weeks ago so calling me a newb is probably an insult to newbs.
This article tells answered most of my original questions regarding this issue.
Yes, it is possible to deploy CakePHP > 3.0 applications to Azure Web Apps. But we need to some preactions to make the application to run. Generally, you can try to following steps:
Create an empty Azure Web Apps, and enable Composer extension, and also you can enable Visual Studio Online for easy script modifications and command running. Refer to https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-php-mysql-deploy-use-git/#enable-composer-automation-with-the-composer-extension for more.
Create a file named web.config with the content at http://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/installation.html#iis7-windows-hosts in the root directory of your application.
Add the inlt extension in PHP runtime on Azure. Add a folder named ext in your root directory, create a file ext.ini in this folder with the content:
extension=php_intl.dll. Add an App Setting to your Web App with the key PHP_INI_SCAN_DIR and value d:\home\site\wwwroot\ext. You also can do this step leverage Visual Studio Online extension after deployment. Refer to https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-php-configure/ for details.
Set up the development environment of your Azure Web Apps, deploy your CakePHP application to Azure via Git. Refer to https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-php-mysql-deploy-use-git/#set-up-the-development-environment for details.
I am trying to deploy my first Laravel App. So I hope I am providing all the necessary info. I have walked down several paths trying to deploy this app. I tried a shared hosting account, but found too many errors to continue deploying my Laravel app. In the meantime, someone has said to me I need a VPS, so I may go with that.
So with a new VPS, I now am trying to install the following: phpMyAdmin, node.js, Composer, and Laravel 4. These are the technologies I am using on my local server with MAMP. Now after being overwhelmed with the information on installing each on a VPS, I have found myself extremely confused. Some places say I need to install Ubuntu. Some say I need to install Apache first. Some talk about using CentOS. I honestly have no idea what I need to install, and in what order. All I really need is to figure out how to set up a PHP environment on my VPS with phpMyAdmin, Node.js, and Composer. After that I am pretty sure it's all straight forward, as far as installing my app.
I also saw some one talking about committing my app to Git, and the cloning it to the VPS. If I did this, I would still need to set up the environment correct? Once again, I hope I have provided the necessary information. If my question is not clear, could you please refer me to a resource that I can study.
You don't need install Laravel separately from the app it is part of - these days a PHP app just contains everything it needs in its vendor folder. How to deploy depends on how you have arranged your dependencies locally, but the simplest way is to copy everything in your local project to your remote server (FTP or rsync). I don't think Laravel demands a VPS, but if you are using Node as well, then yes you will.
So, the short answer is: if it works locally, copy it up to the remote host, and it should work there. Make sure you've set up your config system in your app so that it can cope with the different settings you need in local/remote environments, such as database connection settings.
My feeling is that a shared host would be easier for you as a beginner - is the Node.js component of your app critical? Running your own VPS is not difficult, but there is quite a bit to learn. Your distro (such as Ubuntu) would be ready-installed, and on top of that you would use the package system (something like apt-get) to install Apache, PHP, PHP modules, phpMyAdmin, git, and whatever else you need.
Yes, you can certainly deploy using Git. One way to do this is to create bare repositories on your server in a private place, set it up as a remote in your local dev machine, and push to it as your off-site copy. Then, from your dev or production web folders, pull and update submodules. This is not trivial, and requires at least a working knowledge of Git - so presently I wouldn't recommend this route.
I have a little knowledge about PHP, I want to implement Symfony2, I have successfully installed and config Symfony2 using .../Symfony/web/config.php.
For now I'm going to create a bundle using php command, but I really don't know at all about this.
I tried this:
I got this result:
I'm using EasyPHP and I believe I have config the path to cover it's directory, most tutorial is about UNIX-like system, please suggest me how to do this on Windows XP.
Thanks All.

I work a lot with the WindowsAzure4E(clipse) IDE. And it's always pain to wait for the local test deployment)
Isn't there a way to develop on the deployed PHP files which must be stored somewhere to inetput or something else?
thx for your ideas.
Yes! In fact, I just got this working myself yesterday.
After installing PHP 5.3 with CGI support for IIS (making the necessary php.ini modifications of course), I simply created a new site in IIS that mapped to a role in the workspace for my Eclipse project.
Keep in mind that there's one hiccup to this and that is that the php_azure.dll file, used to access the service configuration and mount azure drives, was built to run in the azure fabric (either development or hosted). In my case, I don't NEED these features so I removed referrences to things like getconfig and poof the project loads in IIS just fine. I only need to make sure I start Azure Storage prior to launching the application.
I've been told that some folks are able to update their systems path environment variable with the location of the azure diagnostics dll (diagnostics.dll) and have it work without this modification. But this route didn't work for me. :(
I'll actually be blogging on this more this weekend as it took me a week of evenings to get things sorted out.
I found out that after the deployment the project files are copied to the folder ServiceDefinition.csx.
When you now edit the source code in this place, you can see the changes directly, without another deployment.
