Is it possible to configure xampp to serve up a file outside of the htdocs directory? For instance, say I have a file: C:\projects\transitCalculator\trunk\TransitCalculator.php and my xampp files are normally served out of: C:\xampp\htdocs\ (because that's how it's configured by default) Is there some way to make Apache recognize an...
When doing an INSERT with a lot of data, ie~ `INSERT INTO table (mediumtext_field) VALUES ('...lots of text here: about 2MB worth...')', MySQL returns "OperationalError: (2006, 'MySQL server has gone away')" This is happening within a minute of starting the script, so it is not a timeout issue. Also, mediumtext_field should be able to h...
XAMPP makes configuring a local LAMP stack for windows a breeze. So it's quite disappointing that enabling htaccess files is such a nightmare. My problem: I've got a PHP application that requires apache/php to search for an /includes/ directory contained within the application. To do this, htaccess files must be allowed in apache and ...

Hi, In few months I start a project in PHP and I am hesitating to do like usual : develop on my Windows Vista 64bits machine. Since I know few things on Linux, I think it can be a good way to learn by working on a Linux distribution. Do you think it's a good idea or not? I would run a VirtualBox with Ubuntu (on my Vista64bits). I was t...

I know mime_content_type() is deprecated, but it seemed to me the alternative is worse at the moment. Finfo seems to require adding files and changing ini directions on windows; I don't want to require this for the script I am making. I need to find the mimetype of files, but when calling mime_content_type($filename) on windows it fails...
I've installed the Windows XAMPP package on three separate computers, 2 running Windows Vista 32 bit ( 1 Ultimate / 1 Home Premium ) and 1 running Windows Vista 64 Home Premium.

I'm trying to experiment with xampp. After having some space issues, I wanted to move my xampp install onto another drive (d:). However I have the apache 2.2 services in XP services which are still pointing to my original c: install. I only see how to start and stop. I'm hoping just removing the service will fix my issues. So the questi...

First off, how do I know if my html file is running on localhost in Xampp? Is there a tutorial on how to manage files/directories and get that all working under htdocs? Is there a good tutorial on how to setup includes? I want to use "includes" in Xampp with my html. Can I use both html includes AND php includes? Do I have to put shtml?...
How do I actually run a file on localhost? I know it is working, but how do I run a file on it, and how do I verify that the file is in fact running on localhost?

I installed XAMPP on my computer which is running Windows XP SP3. Installation was successful. I made a PHP file (index.php) and placed it in my htdoc folder and then tried to open http://localhost/index.php in my browser. It is automatically going to http://localhost/xampp instead. It is not opening index.php. What have I done wrong?...
Greetings! I'd like to investigate Django but I'm running Windows XP. I've installed XMPP and I currently have Python 2.6 installed (is it true that 2.5 is the only version that will work with XMPP?). What else do I need to get up and running? Any tips, recommended IDEs, etc? ...

I was using xampp to develop locally and then I installed the PHP from the direct installer. Now in some of my PHP code, only PHP code that starts with "<?php" is correctly parsed. Anything that starts with "<?" or "<?=" is completely ignored and just left as is. How can I adjust the configuration to parse either tokens? ...
