php5 installation-free configuration

With the development of the Internet, Web applications continue to emerge, and PHP, as a powerful scripting language, is widely used in Web development. However, the process of installing PHP can be confusing and annoying to some people. In order to solve this problem, this article will introduce a method to configure PHP5 without installation.

First, we need to download the compressed package of PHP5. It can be downloaded from the PHP official website: https://windows.php.net/download/. Choose the corresponding download based on whether your computer is 32-bit or 64-bit. After the download is complete, unzip the compressed package to a directory, for example: C:\php.

Next, we need to configure PHP environment variables. In the Windows operating system, you need to add the directory where PHP is located to the system's Path environment variable. The specific configuration method is as follows:

1. Open the Control Panel, click "System and Security", select "System", and then select "Advanced System Settings".
2. In the "System Properties" window, select the "Advanced" tab and click "Environment Variables".
3. In the "Environment Variables" window, find the Path in the system variables and click the "Edit" button.
4. In the "Edit Environment Variables" window, click the "New" button and enter the directory where PHP is located (for example: C:\php).
5. Click the "OK" button to save the changes.

After completing the above steps, we need to test whether our PHP has been successfully configured. Enter the "php -v" command in the command line window. If you see output similar to the following, it means that we have successfully configured the PHP environment variables:

PHP 5.6.40 (cli) (built: Jul  1 2019 11:51:01)
Copyright (c) 1997-2016 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.6.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2016 Zend Technologies

Finally, we need to set the PHP configuration file php .ini. Rename php.ini-development in the unzipped folder to php.ini and copy it to the PHP installation directory. In php.ini, we can make relevant configurations according to needs, such as configuring database connection parameters, upload file size, etc. After the configuration is complete, just restart our web server.

Through the above steps, we can quickly configure PHP5 into our computer for use in web development, dynamic web page production and other application scenarios. The method of configuring PHP5 without installation is not only convenient, but also can avoid some unnecessary troubles.
