How to set up a local PHP environment on the Win10 operating system

With the continuous development of Internet technology, the development of network applications is becoming more and more important. As a very popular server-side scripting language, PHP is widely used in web development. Building a local PHP environment can facilitate development and testing. This article will give you a detailed introduction to how to build a local PHP environment on the Win10 operating system.

1. Download the necessary software
To build a PHP environment, you need to download two software, namely Apache and PHP. We can download the latest version of the software on the official website:
Apache: https://www.apachelounge.com/download/
PHP: http://windows.php.net/download/

2. Install Apache
After downloading the Apache installation package, double-click to run the installation program. You need to pay attention to the following steps during the installation process:

1. Select the installation path: It is recommended to choose a short and easy-to-understand path.
2. Set port: The default port is 80, which can also be modified as needed.
3. After the installation is completed, start the Apache service

3. Install PHP
After downloading the PHP installation package, double-click to run the installation program. During the installation process, you need to pay attention to the following steps:

1. Select the components to be installed: It is recommended to choose the installation components that meet your needs.
2. Set the installation path: It is recommended to select the bin directory under the Apache installation directory.
3. Configure PHP: Copy the php.ini-development file in the PHP directory and rename it to php.ini. Open the file and modify the following configuration:
   i. extension_dir = "ext"
   ii .extension=php_openssl.dll
4. Save the php.ini file to the root directory of the PHP installation directory.

4. Configure the Apache server

1. Find the Apache configuration file httpd.conf, located in the conf directory under the Apache installation directory.

2. Open the httpd.conf file, search for the following two lines of code, and remove the comments (#):
   i. LoadModule php7_module "D:/php/php7apache2_4.dll"
   ii. AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

   Among them, the php version in php7_module needs to be consistent with the latest downloaded PHP version.

3. Finally, restart the Apache server.

5. Test the local PHP environment
After the installation is completed, we can test whether the local PHP environment is successfully established through a few simple steps:

1. In Apache Create a new test.php file in the root directory of , and add the following code:

phpinfo();
?>

2. Enter "localhost/test.php" in the browser address bar.
3. If the page displays normally, it means that our PHP environment has been successfully set up and running.

Summary: The above are the detailed steps for setting up a local PHP environment on Win10. Building a local PHP environment can help developers develop and test on their own machine and improve development efficiency. Of course, some problems may arise during the construction process. We must be patient to find and solve the problems. I believe that as long as we follow the above steps, we can successfully build a local PHP environment.
