Apache Friends Support Forum

I just installed a fresh Debian and now I would like to get ApacheFriends on there and hopefully overwrite existing Apache setups...

I like the easy switching between PHP 4 and 5 XAMPP provides...

Problem is, I don't know what (if any) is the apt-get command to download and install ApacheFriends...

Debian is nothing but the console (No GUI/WM) so I don't know how to download the tar file and install that way...

Can anyone help me get started please

Hello Hockey,

First, make a directory to store the ApacheFriends installation file.

Code: Select all

mkdir ~/installs
cd ~/installs

Next, retrieve XAMPP 1.60

Code: Select all

wget http://superb-west.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/xampp/xampp-linux-1.6.tar.gz


Finally, install XAMPP

Code: Select all

tar xvfz xampp-linux-1.6.tar.gz -C /opt
