WampServer (Formerly WAMP5) 2.0i

By freesoft | Oct 4, 2009

WampServer is a service manager that installs Apache, PHP5, MySQL database, PHPmyadmin and SQLitemanager on your computer. It´s principal aim is to allow you to easily discover the new version of PHP: PHP5. WampServer comes with a service manager installed as a tray icon. It allows you to manage WampServer and access all services.

When you install WampServer, all the files are copied in the directory you choose. Conf files are then modified to point to that directory. It also installs a “www” directory which will be your Document Root.

At the end of the installation, WampServer will automatically install Apache and MySQL as services:

service´ wampapache´: apache service
service ´wampmysql´: mysql service

WAMP5´s installation is compact. This means that all files are copied to WampServer’s directory. Only the MySQL conf file (usually my.ini) is copied to the Windows directory but as “mywamp.ini” to avoid conflicts with other installs.

What’s New in version 2.0i:

Apache 2.2.11
PHP 5.3.0
PECL packages are not included anymore (not available on the PHP website)
MySQL 5.1.36
phpMyAdmin 3.2.0.1
SQLiteManager is not included anymore, not compatible with PHP 5.3.0
Minor bug corrected in the php.ini file
The PHP log file has been desactivated since it creates a bug with the phpinfo() function
