win-apache-php

This is my local apache server with different php versions.

• Apache/2.4.25 (Win64)
• PHP Version 5.3.29
• PHP Version 5.4.45
• PHP Version 5.5.38
• PHP Version 5.6.40
• PHP Version 7.0.33
• PHP Version 7.1.32
• PHP Version 7.2.22
• PHP Version 7.3.9 (default)

Installation

You have to define two environment variables for the ServerRoot and DocumentRoot (for example):

WAP_SERVER => D:/win-apache-php  
WAP_DOCUMENT_ROOT => D:/web

Apache requires Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017. You may need to install it.

Each version of php is used in a virtualhost:

• virtualhost php53 uses PHP Version 5.3.29
• virtualhost php54 uses PHP Version 5.4.45
• virtualhost php55 uses PHP Version 5.5.38
• virtualhost php56 uses PHP Version 5.6.40
• virtualhost php70 uses PHP Version 7.0.33
• virtualhost php71 uses PHP Version 7.1.32
• virtualhost php72 uses PHP Version 7.2.22
• virtualhost php73 uses PHP Version 7.3.9
• All other hosts uses PHP Version 7.3.9

You can add those hosts in the following file c:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

127.0.0.1 php53 php54 php55 php56 php70 php71 php72 php73

Or executing the folling command as administrator

(echo. & echo 127.0.0.1 php53 php54 php55 php56 php70 php71 php72 php73) >> C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

Add folder %WAP_SERVER%\php-7.3-Win32-VC15-x64 to path if you want to execute php or composer from the command line.

Finally, install apache as service (run as administrator)

%WAP_SERVER%\Apache-2.4-win64\bin\httpd.exe -k install

You can install it automatically executing configure.bat as administrator. It will create the folder web next to win-apache-php if does not exists.

Once installed and service started, you can test the phpinfo() for each version to check all is working correctly (phpinfo is only accesible from each php host and localhost).

• http://php53/phpinfo
• http://php54/phpinfo
• http://php55/phpinfo
• http://php56/phpinfo
• http://php70/phpinfo
• http://php71/phpinfo
• http://php72/phpinfo
• http://php73/phpinfo
• http://localhost/phpinfo

ImageMagick (older, not tested)

ImageMagick is configured in PHP, but you have to install on windows.

1. Download and install version 6.9.3-7 x64 from http://ftp.icm.edu.pl/packages/ImageMagick/binaries/ImageMagick-6.9.3-7-Q16-x64-dll.exe, on last step check "Add application directory to your system path"
2. Copy all files from C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.9.3-Q16\modules\coders and C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.9.3-Q16\modules\filters to C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.9.3-Q16 to load ImageMagick supported formats
3. Go to Control Panel -> System -> Advanced Settings -> Environment Variables -> New System Variable -> MAGICK_HOME = C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.9.3-Q16
4. Restart apache service
