Forum :: Lounge :: Wamp/Apache

Does anyone know how to work Wamp/Apache for like making a website?

I never used wamp. From what I understand its just a software bundle so it should be similar to setting up apache. 

With apache you basically install it, set the config.http file to the right values (google tutorials), put your source files in the right directory, open your firewall/router port 80 (this is the http protocol port), and you're set. 

If you want a no-ip you just set one of those up and install the DUC on your machine.

If you want php support you will need to install/configure that as well (but I think wamp comes with it).

That sound difficult, teamviewer?

#EDIT# Says cannot install Apache Service #EDIT#

Four easy steps on how to work WAMP:

1. Install it

2. Portforward to 80

3. Goto your www folder in your wamp directory(in C:\).

4. Place your PHP files or your HTML files in the www directory and goto localhost(You may also use your no-ip or forward your domain to your ip.)
