is it posible php and asp.net share the same server? - php

I have have installed a software that came along with an ASP.NET
hosted in UltiDev Web Server Explorer a web application manager, its
database is .mdb, and I want to add some pages to it using PHP for an
additional features. And UltiDev can run only asp.net and I have no
time for now to study ASP. is there any other web application manager
that can run php and ISS together sharing the same .mdb database? I am
not interested in IIS right now.

yes you can run PHP server on IIS but reverse is not so easy.
Goto this link and install this web platform installer. then you can access and manage your PHP files
http://php.iis.net/
you can easily manager like Apache server

You can install PHP to run alongside an IIS installation with the Microsoft WebMatrix tool.

On a sidenote, Helicon has a selection of PHP/Ruby/etc applications that can be easily deployed to an IIS installation via WebMatrix.

PHP/Apache Questions

I am a beginner web developer looking to create a website using PHP, MySQl, and Apache. Windows 10 is downloaded on my laptop. Which version of PHP and which version of Apache should I download? I already have MySQL installed. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
I will suggest you use WampServer.
WampServer is a Windows web development environment. It allows you to
create web applications with Apache2, PHP and a MySQL database.
Alongside, PhpMyAdmin allows you to manage easily your databases.

instead use PHP Manager for IIS

Convert LAMP application to be distributed as a Windows MSI

I have recently completed a web based application for a client running on a LAMP system - Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP. However, the spec has been changed and rather than the application be available over the web, the client now wishes it to be only available internally via their windows network. Is it possible to set up apache, php, mysql on Windows, install my web app including mysql database and PHP code and then create an MSI that can be distributed on a CD ROM etc and installed on a Windows network?
The easiest way would be XAMPP ( http://www.apachefriends.org/de/xampp.html ).
But I guess it will be harder to programm/generate the MSI (eg WiX) than to use another approach like installing xampp and then placing your php/mysql files correctly in there.
You could also install XAMPP on your PC, setup everything fine, and zip it back up.
Customer would then need to install XAMPP and overwrite the files with the content of your zip.

Install wordpress in windows server 2003 which already host asp.net website

I have a server which already host ASP.Net website. I am migrating from blogger to WordPress. So I need to install WordPress on our server. Can we host WordPress on windows server??
Yes you can install Wordpress (or any other php application) on a windows server IF php is installed on the server. There are many tutorials on google on how to install and setup PHP on IIS (the Windows web server), but Microsoft actually provides an easy PHP install from their website : Install PHP on IIS from Windows Web App Gallery
Wordpress also needs MySQL to work, so that would have to be installed on the server as well.
Your main concern here I guess is whether you have access to the server to install PHP & MySQL:
If this server is provided by a hosting service, it might not support
PHP, in which case there's nothing you can do. You'll need to check with the provider whether they support it or not, and if they can install it.
If you have complete access to the server, you just need to install PHP and MySQL (a bit of configuration will probably be needed - lots of tutorials on google to help you there); then install Wordpress normally as you would on any other kind of server.
PS: if you install PHP yourself, you should make sure to check which version of IIS you are running (IIS6 on windows 2003? IIS7+ on windows 2008?). IIS6 requires some extra configuration to make everything work, as pointed out in the article linked by Marty in his comment.
When I first started using Wordpress I used a Windows Server (granted it was shared space by a service provider) and it ran poorly. I switched to a Linux hosting account and it ran much better. Just my two cents based on my experience.

Standalone web server (PHP, MySQL) for Mac

I have to work at client's office on a Mac (I'm a PC user) and I can't install anything.
I need a local web server to develop the app. Is there anything like http://www.server2go-web.de/download/download.html but for a Mac? Just so I can download it unpack it and run to have a standalone, non installbale, local web server (Apache, PHP, MySQL).
Thanks.
It seems you're able to install xampp in a portable manner (go for the drive-less install option), just run the setup script when you've copied the installation to where you want it to be.
