![]() The Abyss installer can be extracted directly with 7zip (download it from here), or rename the abwsx1.exe to abwsx1.zip and extract in a folder of your choice. zip archive, download the zip package from the "Windows binaries" section at the php.net website here. :)Īdded by aless: (for Windows) There is no need to install either PHP or Abyss. variable) otherwise I wasn't able to log in.Įxcuse me for intervention, hope you'll be able to understand what I wrote. Note: Abyss runs on many platforms, so a similar procedure will probably work for all of them.Īdded by Kriss: I had to tweak php.ini this way: session.save_path = ".\pmWiki\tmp\sessions" (folder should be inside Abyss'. Now go to a computer, plug in the pendrive, locate the abyssws.exe webserver in Web/Abyss Web Server and execute it (or create a shortcut in the rootfolder of the pendrive). Download Δ (browsing will be limited to the contents of the Web folder) or Δ (which allows all of the stick to be browsed) and copy it as nf in the Web/Abyss Web Server folder.You now have 2 folders inside Web: Abyss Web Server and PHP. ![]() Locate the Abyss Web Server and PHP folders in Program Files.> Note: If you put the Web directory somewhere other than root, then update line 5 of nf to reflect the full path to the Abyss directory (i.e., C:\MyDirectory\Abyss Web Server). Make a folder in the root of the pendrive, named Web.Select "Other CGI" when prompted to configure a web-server. Download the windows installer for PHP and install it.Download the Abyss Webserver and install it.If you need to use these, make sure to assign the memory stick a drive letter that will not change from system to system. For example, Directory commands require a path like "C:/Apache/htdocs/wiki/uploads". Some Apache configuration items under the Windows OS require hard-coded paths. Read the precautions about Vista installs at the XAMPP site. The newer version(s) of XAMPP are advertised as working under Vista, which suggests the older versions may not. You can remove the approvals from the firewall later if you want to leave no traces behind. Just approve them when the dialog appears and all is fine. Under XP (not tried under Vista) the Windows firewall traps the start up of the various servers. Otherwise, it is pretty safe, because for someone to even see it on a LAN, they would need to know your IP. You will need to lock it down if you intend to use it on the internet. Note that as shipped, XAMPP is not intended as a production server. Most sticks do not indicate their speed and neither brand name nor price are a reliable indicator. This works amazingly well on a fast stick - one with at least 8 Mbit/s read and write transfers. ![]() Just remember this step, its very important! Thanks, Real Chris October 22, 2008, at 10:51 AM After its started you can turn on Skype, AOL, etc. Anyway, after turning all of these off and clicking on Apache, you get a confirmation that its started. If you don't do this, then you won't be able to start the Apache part. Anyway, before starting XAMPP, make sure that you turn off all instant messaging systems (Skype, YIM, AOL, MSN, etc.). I believe its because it uses port 80 (or 8080). XAMPP does not work with Skype or most instant messengers. For PHP, then move the PHP folder inside Abyss' folder and change the PHP path in nf to a relative one i.e. Optionally, to install additional components (PHP, Perl, Python, etc.) follow the instructions on Aprelium's website. ![]()
