 Apache Friends started as a project concerned solely with
XAMPP. As we got our forum online the main focus of Apache
Friends changed to a more general aspect: not only to develop
XAMPP and support it but also give general support for Apache
and related technologies.
Now we would like to support more than just our own XAMPP
project. This page is the first attempt to loosen the strict
alliance of XAMPP and Apache Friends and open Apache Friends to
other projects than XAMPP.
This page is an early state and at the moment XAMPP is still our only project. But hopefully this will change soon.
If you've any ideas and time to collaborate please send an email to projects@apachefriends.org.  Many people know from their own experience that it's not easy to install an Apache web server and it gets harder if you want to add MySQL, PHP and Perl. 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.
At the moment there are four XAMPP versions:
- a version for Linux systems (tested for Ubuntu, SuSE, RedHat, Mandrake and Debian),
- a version for Windows 98, NT, 2000, 2003 and XP,
- a beta version for Solaris SPARC (developed and tested under Solaris 8),
- and a beta version for MacOS X.
This MacOSX and Solaris versions of XAMPP are still in the first steps of development. Use at you own risk!
 XAMPP AddOns the platform-spreading summary of XAMPP FAQ, Chat and extensions is now available with new uniform Design at  http://addons.xampp.org.
The FAQ serves a source of information beside the forum, in which the user has the possibility of writing own FAQ contributions for assisting other users on special topics.
The Chat is a general approach place for all related topic of XAMPP and AddOns.
Extensions are useful Tools which were not integrated into XAMPP by default, because of the space they need. They are also constantly updated, to keep XAMPP up-to-date and secure.
This forum is the right place for you if you've any questions
about XAMPP, Apache, MySQL, PHP, Perl etc.
One small word of warning: Nearly everything in our forum is German but
there's an "Apache Friends in English" section as well. Most German
people will understand you and will be more or less able to
answer in English. You're absolutely welcome to ask questions or
make suggestions! ;)
Thanks to the developers of phpBB for such a great software.
