This blog is in need of a makeover, and so I am trying to keep the procrastination habit at bay, practice some GTD and get started on creating a new template for it. First of all, I need a local development environment for PHP on Windows, since I am a Windows user. Previously, I would have installed IIS on Windows and used it as the server for PHP, but it’s always a chore trying to find my Windows CD.
Fortunately, I learnt about LightTPD recently in my work at Wego and how I can use it to replace IIS as the server for PHP. It’s easy installation and setup within minutes. Great! Let’s get started!
1. Download and Install PHP
Download PHP from PHP website. I chose the zip package and simply unzipped it into my directory of choice: Almighty C drive! So now, it’s residing at “C:”php”.
2. Download and Install LightTPD
Download a Win32 version of LightTPD from the WLMP Project; I chose the Setup Wizard (.exe) version.
Double-click on the downloaded executable to start the short installation process, during which you would specify the destination of the install. I installed mine at “C:”Program Files”LightTPD”.
3. Start and Test LightTPD
To start LightTPD, go to the LightTPD directory (i.e. “C:”Program Files”LightTPD”), find the file “TestMode.bat” and double-click on it. A console window would open and indicate that the server has been started.
To test that LightTPD is working at this moment, point your browser to http://localhost. You should see

That was easy right? Now we just need to edit some configurations to make PHP work with LightTPD.
4. Editing LightTPD Configurations
Edit the file lighttpd-inc.conf (i.e. “C:”Program Files”LightTPD”conf”lighttpd-inc.conf”) with the following:
Remove the comment tag for “mod-cgi” (Line 20) Add this line (assuming that PHP was installed on C drive): cgi.assign = ( “.php” => “C:/php/php-cgi.exe” ) 5. Editing PHP Configurations
In your PHP directory, rename the file php.ini-recommended to php.ini and edit php.ini with the following:
short_open_tag = On display_errors = On doc_root = “C:”Progra~1″LightTPD”htdocs” 6. Test PHP with LightTPD
To test that LightTPD now works with PHP, create a file with the following contents:
View Plain Copy to Clipboard Print ?
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
Place the file in your htdocs directory (i.e. “C:”Program Files”LightTPD”htdocs”), open up your browser and browse to the page. Walaa! You should be able to see the standard phpinfo() messages.
There you have it! A development environment for PHP on Windows in 6 simple steps. Now, to get started on the new template..
