WAMP server [1] is Windows Apache MySQL PHP Server all bundled into one nice package. This package is great to test your projects, you don't need to upload every time you need to test a change. You can test everything from you own Windows machine.
There are more platform specific implementations:
- LAMP, Linux Apache MySQL and PHP
- MAMP, Mac Apache MySQL and PHP
Intranet Access
If you running WAMP and want to connect to a local installed WAMP server, you may need to alter/configure:
- Apache HTTP Server Configuration
- OS Hosts settings
- Router settings
Shell Scripts
To enable the execution of scripts like ksh you need to activate CGI in MAMP. This section shows how. The default setup only allows CGI scripts to execute out of the default: ‘Applications/MAMP/cgi-bin’ directory.
- Open ‘Applications/MAMP/conf/apache/httpd.conf’ in a text editor of your choice.
- Search the Document for – ‘AddHandler cgi-script .cgi’
That line should be commented out, remove the ‘#’ to uncomment this and add ‘.pl’ to the line (PL files are a common file type used in cgi scripts, so that is why we are adding ‘.pl’ to the line)
Your line should now look like this: ‘AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl’ - Now search the document for this segment of code:
<Directory /> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None </Directory>
- Modify the code to look like this:
<Directory /> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Options FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI </Directory>
- Open MAMP Application, and restart the server
- Finished! CGI scripts should now work anywhere you place them.
Execute Scripts
The scripts does not run without customization:
- You need to store program in cgi-bin directory.
- Debian Linux default location for cgi-bin directory: /usr/lib/cgi-bin.
- Red Hat / Fedora it is /var/www/cgi-bin.
- MAMP: /Application: /Applications/MAMP/cgi-bin
Now take this example Bash-cgi-test program:
#!/bin/bash echo "Content-type: text/html" echo "" echo "<html><head><title>Bash as CGI" echo "</title></head><body>" echo "<h1>Hello world</h1>" echo "Today is $(date)" echo "</body></html>"
Save and close the file. Setup execute permission on the script:
$ chmod +x first.cgi
