We have a PHP application installed for a client on his windows server, using Apache and Mysql. Now the client wants to upgrade his server and is asking
"Does the application, apache web server, and mysql support Windows 64 bit?"
Now, I see there is a mysql version for windows 64bit, but I can't find anything official for Apache and PHP, but only binaries from 3rd-party sites.
Does anyone know if there is an official Apache and PHP release for windows 64bit (or a trustworthy 3rd-party at least)? For Apache I could use IIS so it's not really a problem, so it's mainly PHP I'm interested in.
Alternatively, will there be a problem if I run the standard latest binaries that are offered from the PHP site?
As always, thanks in advance

You can get a WAMP stack on 64bit windows system. However there' might be some problems with some dll extensions for example CURL as described in this article.

I'm using Windows 7 64Bit and use the XAMPP for 32 Bit.
So you can just install Apache, PHP and MySQL for 32Bit systems on a 64Bit machine.

I've been using XAMPP, but want to switch to a full 64-Bit Windows web platform with PHP 7. I know I will need to install the 64-bit versions of Apache, MySQL and PHP. but what else?
For instance, with XAMPP SSL support just worked right out of the box. I presume I'll need to sort out OpenSSL. What about OpenSSL for PHP? Again, out of the box I can just use those functions in PHP, but is OpenSSL in the standard Windows PHP package?
I'm curious about the above and anything else I might not have thought of.
Taken from xampp website: Includes: Apache 2.4.17, MariaDB 10.1.9, PHP 5.5.30, phpMyAdmin 4.5.1, OpenSSL 1.0.1, XAMPP Control Panel 3.2.1, Webalizer 2.23-04, Mercury Mail Transport System 4.63, FileZilla FTP Server 0.9.41, Tomcat 7.0.56 (with mod_proxy_ajp as connector), Strawberry Perl 7.0.56 Portable

The program can't start because api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll is missing while starting Apache server on my computer [closed]

In order to quickly set up my PHP/Perl development environment, I installed xampp. Specifically, I attempted to install using: xampp-win32-7.0.1-0-VC14-installer.
When I started the program, I ran into an error related to a dll file. I also tried the suggestions in this question that sounded like fixes to the same problem.
The problem is still not fixed after trying the above.
I was facing the same issue.
After many tries below solution worked for me.

Unmarked MySQL.dll extension on my PHP.INI file and restarted IIS.
now once i go to the WordPress installation address im getting :
HTTP Error 500.0 - Internal Server Error
is there another settings im forgetting to deal with ?
Just get IIS Express with Web Platform Installer. You'll find PHP in the list there and URL Rewrite, PHP WinCache and more utilities. IIS Express is better for local dev than IIS as it's lighter on the permissions that it needs.
Read here IIS Express vs Default IIS that comes with Windows 7 ... you might have issues this your permissions and that's a major PITA to handle. I always eventually set IIS up properly but can never actually tell what I did :) on the permissions side.
Apache on Windows is not as fast as IIS. But if your hosting is Linux, you might want to use it to get acquainted to .htaccess Rewrites and overall rules too.

I want to set up a webserver and i was wondering which os i should choose. People tell me i should choose between centOS, ubuntu or debian.
Basically the server os has to be able to do the following:
- Run a php/mysql website that will be visited by approxamally 1000 visitors a day.
- Support a server with raid configuration.
Which OS is the best option, and what packages would you advice to install?
I would say it is personell preference, I have also used ubuntu so I stick with that as I like the package managers and how quick things get updated for it.
I prefer Debian.
Ubuntu is based on Debian, so it is good too, but I like Debian.
Also CentOS is good server-side OS too.
There are no correct answer to your question, the choice of OS is limited by personal preferences.
They are all usable options for that purpose - companies use all kinds of platforms and get more traffic than you mention. I've ran sites on a webserver using the following OS's and following webserver platforms.
Windows - Apache HTTP Webserver
Ubuntu - Apache 2 Webserver
Debian - Apache 2 Webserver
centOS has an Apache webserver platform too:

Also, note that power to host more visitors is not necessarily OS-dependent so much as MACHINE dependent.

My ultimate, simple goal, is to install Wordpress.
Unfortunately, Wordpress requires PHP 5.2.4 or greater, while the server my site is hosted on is only running 5.2.17. When I contacted Earthlink, they said they couldn't update it, but that I could.
However, after a little bit of searching, I'm not sure where to begin. I have very little command line experience, and no Linux experience. I'm not even sure what flavor of Linux they're using. Does anyone know of any walkthrough guides or tutorials?
The odd thing is, Earthlink has a Wordpress installer built in to their control center (I'm opting for an FTP install, because I want to install in a subdomain). So alternatively, can I get away with installing on the server with PHP 5.2.17? If they're doing it, why can't I?
Thanks,
Scott
I don't think you understand PHP versions. PHP 5.2.17 is a newer version than 5.2.4. Wordpress should work just fine on 5.2.17. Have you run into issues while installing it?
