Its easy enough - is it Apache or IIS? Installation for php still has the occasional hiccup over needing to move some files into the windows directory, or not realizing older versions of dll's from previous php installations are there and screwing up your new versions install. And sometimes IIS is a bit more painful than the apache installation.
I say go for it, if it takes more than an hour then get the IT guy ;0 Seth -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dave Mennenoh Sent: Thursday, March 22, 2007 9:03 AM To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: [Flashcoders] OT - Installing PHP, MySQL? Anyone have any experience in this area? We're developing a Flash site for a new client, who keeps all their own web servers in-house. They are MS house using .net and such. They are setting up a new server just for their new site, and since they are not familiar with PHP or MySQL (which is what we develop with) they are asking us to install them. They will give us remote access to the server... How hard / not-hard is it to install PHP and MySQL on a remote server? Anything to be weary of? Is it something I should just skip attempting and hire an IT guy to do it?
