Why yes I am thanks for asking! So yes there IS a benefit to me to install a local Apache instance. What I really wanted to do was get my Apache instance to work with my Tomcat instance using mod_jk. I'm considering using my VS.NET 08 to create a 64-bit version of PHP as well since .
In any case I found someone had already created a 64-bit Apache: http://www.elxis.org/guides/developers-guides/64bit-apache-php-mysql-windows .html PS: I would imagine a lot of us on this list are software developers and database architects as well. -----Original Message----- From: Tony B [mailto:ton...@gmail.com] Sent: Saturday, December 19, 2009 12:42 PM Subject: Re: Apache on 64-bit Win 7 There's no benefit at all to someone that doesn't *need* Apache. Are you a web developer? Do you write php code? If not, then no, the average person doesn't need Apache. If yes then you want to install 64 bit if you have a 64 bit system. I mean, define "benefit".

Is it compatible with 32-bit PHP? ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** ************************************************************************* ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
