I decided to make a very simple form of guest book. With only one text area and no more
crap like fields for your email address, name or home page url. Just simple and plain as a real world guest book.
And also like a real guest book: HTML input is not allowed.
And a message to all guest book spammers: URLs in this guest book were automatically removed.
This is only a guest book. If you've questions or need support: Please visit our forum. We don't answer any questions here.
And please, for your own happiness: Don't leave your e-mail addresses in a public guest book. Spammers will love you.
I have been using XAMP at home for a while now and have just convinced my boss to use it as well.
Thanks.

..SuDeEp...

This first statement really worries me. The second statement doesn't seem to apply to a Windows installation.
There don't seem to be any docs discussing securing xampp.
--
The default configuration is not good from a securtiy point of view and it's not secure enough for a production environment - please don't use XAMPP in such environment.
Since LAMPP 0.9.5 you can make your XAMPP installation secure by calling »/opt/lampp/lampp security«.

You can't find a package installer for Solaris that is better. Not even if you paid!

Great package, and a true time-saver on windows. I'm only concerned about the difficulty to obtain all the sourcecode for a particular XAMPP release. A links page would be very useful.
Tue 08 Feb 2005 04:22:18 PM CET
Will the next release include Apache 2.0.53 and PhpMyAdmin 2.6.3? Any indication of a release date?
Mon 07 Feb 2005 11:23:24 AM CET

Wonderful! A very convenient package!
The english language support could be improved though, there are still many traces of German commands.

I have downloaded XAMPP for Windows (XP), v. 1.4.11. I have changed flag in "apache/bin/php.ini" extension=php_mcrypt.dll
but it doesn't work! I need MCrypt Lib.
Can you help me, please?
Apache after restart wrote:
PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:\xampp\php\ext\php_mcrypt.dll' - Module doesn't exists.

Thanks!!

You did an amazing thing. This is awesome. This package will be amazing for taking php web applications and make them avaliable off-line. I am doing a trial at a company i'm working with doing just that. You can count on me for beta-testing here forward!!!

I want to express my sincere gratitude to all those people who have contributed towards creating this wonderful product, on behalf of all my project group members and myself.
We are in our final year pursuing a bachelor degree in computer applications and need to do one project for 100 marks. We needed to do something other than VB/Access combo that all the other groups were brainwashed to use.
We did find it hard to resist the temptation of working with such ease, but that's when my great searching skills (ahem ahem ;) led me to hotscripts.com from where i got the package. the one we use is the old one with php 4.3.4, mysql 4.0.16, etc.
apachefriends remains one of the biggest reasons not only to keep us into programming using open-source tools but also makes it so "tempting". addition of useful utilities like phpMyAdmin and real examples also has helped get a good start on learning the workings of the platform.
Thank you again!

What version of XAMMP should I download to get PHP4 instead of PHP5? (Drupal has major problems with PHP5)

Thank you for best LAMPP package ever! :)
Fri 07 Jan 2005 06:51:14 PM CET
Woohoo, with new version coming all the time, you guys know how to keep up with 'da beat'. For such an easy to setup test environment, I gotta say a big thanks to you, Apache Friends.
Fri 07 Jan 2005 12:01:00 AM CET
Like to say thanks too.
i've been using windows IIS for years now, but started using add-on that all seemed to need Apache..after a week, still didn't have all the settings correct..

WOW and again THANKS

POSTGRESQL! POSTGRESQL! POSTGRESQL! That is one important software you left out in your package. You may omit the PostgreSQL installation package, but please do not omit configuring php to use PostgreSQL.
You guys are great.

Any business would be smart to use Apachefriends for their server application. I don't remember how long I have been using it but it is in the years and I couldn't ask for a better product.
I hope that the people [EMAILHIDDEN] apache friends realize the rewards that they so richly deserve.

Thank you guys. You make my work easier. I use XAMPP for my teaching job in Php and MySQL in Windows and Linux. I also use XAMPP in deploying intranet applications to my customers. Just recently, I am entertaining using PostgreSQL for my database. Unfortunately, php in XAMPP for Linux is not configured to use PostgreSQL. No problem with the Windows version. Can you do something about this -- php configured to also use postgreSQL in Linux aside from MySQL?
Sat 01 Jan 2005 01:34:10 PM CET
I just wanted to thank everyone involved with creating this package. I must've spent at least a week trying to install Apache, PHP and mySQL separately with no joy and so much hassle then i stumbled upon XAMPP.
Installation was dead easy and it actually worked first time with absolutely no issues (a first for me and downloaded software).
You guys are clearly geniuses and I very much appreciate your hard work.
Thanks again,
Steve

You guys made it possible for me to get the first (of hopefully several) Linux servers integrated into a wholly MS corporate environment. I was setting up a proof of concept system to show my boss, and used FC2 (it was free - what can I say $0 budget and all..) Your scripts and configuration tools blew me away and allowed me to use the latest and greatest versions of all the apps I needed.
Thank you thank you thank you!
Thu 30 Dec 2004 05:21:42 AM CET
I've been running apache/mysql/php/mod_perl for years. I just wiped my box and installed FC3 and was starting to piece together a new build environment for all the new versions and ran across this website from freshmeat.net. I had serious doubts that it would work as advertised, but I tried it anyway. I was blown away with how up-to-date the tools are, how easy it was to install and get running, and how powerful the configuration (which may have some more room to grow) tools were. I give you great applause for a job well done and want to express my gratitude. Thanks so much.

Hi,
I have installed xampp from apache friends and will be using it to design and run my own web sites.
The install was easy so thanks for all your work
Tue 21 Dec 2004 02:00:44 AM CET
Hi Kay and Oswald,
I am just moving over to Linux and as I have been using your excellent XAMPP on Windows for quite a while I just couldn't wait to try the Linux package.
What a breeze, installed on Fedora Core 3 as easy as Windows, two days with Linux and I am already running my WEB Server, brilliant!!
Please accept my appreciation for your dedication, where would we be without you?

A lovely install - with apache2, php5 and IPv6 compatable out of the box!
I've put it on my laptop, and intend to spend Christmas developing php scripts.
