Which versions Mysql/Apache?

Posted by Chris_Isaac (Chris Isaac), 18 January 2004
Hi

Was hoping you could point me in the right direction.  I want to install MySQL, PHP and Apache on my local machine for test purposes.

I managed to work out which version of PHP I needed, but am unsure about the MySQL and Apache.  I downloaded a version of Apache (1.3...) and installed it on 1 of my machines, and it is working, but I noticed on their website this morning they recommend version 2.??  Is there a major difference?

With regard to MySQL I downloaded a Source Windows Zip version (about 7MB) but when I unzipped it it didn't have the setup.exe file, should I have downloaded the binary version (about 22MB) ?

Thanks in advance.

I would suggest you download the Win32 Binary for Apache version 2.0.48 (you don't want to have to compile from sources), and MySQL version 4.0.17, again as a binary.
