$Web Database Applications with PHP \& MySQL$

A.4. Installation Resources

For more information on installing and configuring, there are several resources:

For Microsoft Windows installation, we recommend the PHP Triad for Windows installation package available from http://sourceforge.net/projects/phptriad/. The package contains MySQL, PHP, Apache, and PHPMyAdmin for MySQL maintenance through a web browser interface.
NuSphere sells integrated Apache, PHP, and MySQL bundles with simple installation procedures and software support. A free download of the installation package without support is also available for Linux, Sun Solaris, and Microsoft Windows environments. Under the Linux environment, NuSphere is installed by following simple steps in a web browser.
The PHP online manual has instructions for installing PHP with most web servers and platforms, but these instructions are concise. They are located at http://www.php.net/manual.
Many of the online resources accessible from http://www.php.net/links.php have installation tutorials or guides.
The MySQL manual provides an excellent step-by-step guide to installing and configuring MySQL in many environments. The MySQL web site URL is: http://www.mysql.com.
