I am learning PHP and need to download the Apache server. I have a 64 bit pc, where can i download it, also using Windows Vista and also which one is recommended.
Sorry Instructor said not to use XAMP - forgot to mention
http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi
Two alternatives:
http://www.wampserver.com/en/download.php
http://www.apachefriends.org/es/xampp.html
Many recommend xampp over wamp.
Download Xampp.
It is made exactly for your situation.
Includes php mysql apache and a ton of other stuff.
I recommend going with
http://www.easyphp.org/
or
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html
no 64bit, only 32bit with ssl.

I have a VDS(Virtual Dedicated Server) that Windows Server 2003 is installed on it. I want to use php and MySQL on my VDS. I have two options: 1-install wamp server as a web server or 2-install iis and then use php and MySQL on iis.
Which one do you suggest me to use?
Wamp is a great tool for development but it's not very secure and fast for production.
In my opinion, on Windows the best option is IIS, faster and more secure.
You can easily find some tests by searching on Internet :

I recommand wamp, more stable and efficient.

Is there a way to use my Apache / PHP web hosting to setup an internet radio ?
If i got that right, you want to set up a webradio, not a file acces system to stream to single computers.
In that case, i would suggest u have a look into
Linux

Windows
An alternate is http://www.shoutcast.com/ using Winamp, which can be controlled by an webinterface, accessable via internet if running an apache server
Hope that did help you
I dont know wich platform you have, but take a look at these sites:
For Windows:
http://www.ehow.com/how_7637097_stream-audio-apache-server.html
For Linux: (it says its for Free BSD, but you can use it in every type of Linux, just some commands may be diffrent)

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?

I've searched a few forums already and I haven't found a definitve answer. I'm aware that the XAMPP development for MAC OSX has been suspended, however I was hoping someone could outline the steps involved or point me to some other resources.
I'm currently using OSX 10.6.8, XAMPP 1.7.3, and PHP 5.3.1.
I guess this question should also expand to the updating of other components like phpmyadmin and mysql.
Thank you in advance!
I use MAMP and Apache/MySQL/PHP which works perfect on my mac
Maybe one of these will be easier to figure out since they are built for mac? Otherwise, sorry can't help!

I'm trying to start php development for facebook applications. I have already had some problems configuring PHP and Apache.
Today I found a tool called EasyPHP. Is it recommended to use this tool for developing php websites and in particular facebook applications?
EasyPHP is a perfectly good solution as far as I'm aware, but I've never used it myself so I couldn't recommend it. I use XAMPP, but it's all down to personal preference.
It's probably worth taking a look at this question on SO, or this Wiki article comparing WAMPs.
xampp
XAMPP is an easy to install Apache distribution containing MySQL, PHP
and Perl. XAMPP is really very easy to install and to use - just
download, extract and start.
wamp for windows, mamp for mac, thats what I reccommend.
I'm using Visual-AMP, It's like the IIS.
WAMP, MySQL and pretty much any IDE.
Just follow the online instructions.
WAMP includes all the tools and extensions you'll need without needing to mess around with config files
