<p><strong>XAMPP for Windows exists in three different flavors:</strong></p>
<ul class="square">
<li><strong>Installer</strong> Probably the most comfortable way to install XAMPP.</li>
<li><strong>ZIP</strong>: For purists: XAMPP as ordinary ZIP archive.</li>
<li><strong>7zip</strong>: For purists with low bandwidth: XAMPP as 7zip archive.</li>
</ul>

<p id="WinInstallXAMPP"><hr>
			<span class="supertagline"> Installation for Windows<br />
The diffrent Installation Options </span>
			<br class="clear">
			<hr></p>
<ul class="square">
<li><a href="#WinInst">Method A: Installation with the Installer</a></li>
<li><a href="#WinInstB">Method B: &#8220;Installation&#8221; without the Installer</a></li>
<li><a href="#WinMethodC">Method C: Start XAMPP without setup (For example if you want to have it on a USB drive)</a></li>
</ul>
<p id="WinInst"><hr>
			<span class="supertagline"> <br />
Installation With Installer on Windows<br />
 </span>
			<br class="clear">
			<hr></p>
<p>Installation using the Installer is the easiest way to get started. It’so easy that I won’t go through the installer.</p>
<blockquote><p>The only thing to think about is that Because of missing or insufficient write permissions in &#8220;C:\Program Files&#8221;, we recommend to use alternate folder for XAMPP (&#8220;C:\xampp&#8221; or &#8220;C:\your folder of choice\xampp&#8221;)</p></blockquote>
<p>After the installation is complete, you will find XAMPP under:</p>
<blockquote><p>Start &gt; All Programs &gt; Apache Friends &gt; XAMPP</p></blockquote>
<p>You can use the XAMPP Control Panel to start/stop all servers and also install/uninstall services.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><a href="#IndexHowTo">Back to Index</a></p>
<p id="WinInstB"><hr>
			<span class="supertagline"> <br />
&#8220;Installation&#8221; without the Installer on Windows<br />
 </span>
			<br class="clear">
			<hr></p>
<p>Unzip the zip archives into the folder of your choice. XAMPP is extracting to the subdirectory &#8220;[target]\xampp&#8221; below the selected target directory. Now start the file &#8220;setup_xampp.bat&#8221;, to adjust the XAMPP configuration to your system.</p>
<blockquote><p>If you choose a root directory &#8220;C:\&#8221; as target, you must not start &#8220;setup_xampp.bat&#8221;.</p></blockquote>
<p>Like with the installer version, you can now use the &#8220;XAMPP Control Panel&#8221; for additional tasks.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><a href="#IndexHowTo">Back to Index</a></p>
<p id="WinMethodC"><hr>
			<span class="supertagline"> <br />
Start XAMPP without setup<br />
( For example if you want to have it on a USB drive )<br />
 </span>
			<br class="clear">
			<hr></p>
<p>If you extract XAMPP in a top level folder like &#8220;C:\&#8221; or &#8220;D:\&#8221;, you can start most servers like Apache or MySQL directly without execution of the file &#8220;setup_xampp.bat&#8221;.</p>
<p>Not using the setup script, or selecting relative paths in the setup script, is preferred if you are installing XAMPP on a usb drive. Because on each pc a usb drive can have an other drive letter. You can switch from absolute to relative paths at any time with the setup script.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><a href="#IndexHowTo">Back to Index</a></p>
<p id="WinStartup"><hr>
			<span class="supertagline"> <br />
Starting up your Apache and MySQL services<br />
 </span>
			<br class="clear">
			<hr></p>
<p>After the installation, you should’ve been presented with an option that asks you to open the XAMPP Control Panel. If you didn’t get that option, do one of the following:</p>
<p>Option 1: Navigate to it using the Windows interface</p>
<blockquote><p>Start &gt; All Programs &gt; Apache Friends &gt; XAMPP &gt; XAMPP Control Panel</p></blockquote>
<p>Option 2: Open the XAMPP Control Panel directly</p>
<p>If you didn’t select the &#8220;Create Shortcut&#8221; option in the installation, then navigate to the XAMPP installation folder and open the file called xampp-control.exe.</p>
<blockquote><p>The XAMPP Control Panel see picture below:</p></blockquote>
<div id="attachment_584" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 464px"><a href="http://www.sitedevelopments.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/XAMMP-ControlPanel.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-584" title="XAMMP ControlPanel" src="http://www.sitedevelopments.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/XAMMP-ControlPanel.png" alt="XAMMP Control Panel" width="454" height="363" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">XAMMP Control Panel</p></div>
<p>To start the services press the start button beside the service you would like to start in the XAMPP Control Panel. If the service started sucessfully then it should have the text Running beside the service that you started.</p>
<blockquote><p>For example if you started Apache and MySQL then it should look like the picture below:</p></blockquote>
<div id="attachment_590" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 464px"><a href="http://www.sitedevelopments.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/XAMMP-ControlPanel-started.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-590" title="XAMMP ControlPanel started" src="http://www.sitedevelopments.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/XAMMP-ControlPanel-started.png" alt="XAMMP ControlPanel started" width="454" height="363" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">XAMMP ControlPanel Services Started</p></div>
<p>Test the installation by opening up your favourite browser and type <strong>localhost</strong> as your url:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false">http://localhost</pre>
<p style="text-align: right;"><a href="#IndexHowTo">Back to Index</a></p>
<p id="localdomainname"><hr>
			<span class="supertagline"> <br />
Set up Local Domain Name<br />
 </span>
			<br class="clear">
			<hr></p>
<p>First open your hosts file and write the Local Domain Name you would like to use.</p>
<p>Remember that you first have to open your editor as administrator then open the hosts file that are located here:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false">C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts</pre>
<p>Write the loopback adress <strong>127.0.0.1</strong> and the <strong>Local Domain Name</strong> you would like to use. In my case I used <strong>sitedevelopments.lh</strong> as my localdomain name.</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false">127.0.0.1 sitedevelopments.lh</pre>
<p>Save your hosts file.</p>
<p>Next step is to flush the DNS.</p>
<p>Open commpand promt, by pressing: Start &gt; and type: <strong>cmd</strong> in the search box and press enter.</p>
<p>In the command promt type:</p>
<pre class="brush: powershell; gutter: false">ipconfig /flushDNS</pre>
<p>And press enter. A message will tell you that the DNS were flushed.<br />
If you have problems to flush your DNS then restart your computer.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><a href="#IndexHowTo">Back to Index</a></p>
<p id="VirtualHosts"><hr>
			<span class="supertagline"> <br />
Set up Virtual Hosts<br />
 </span>
			<br class="clear">
			<hr></p>
<p>Open up the file <strong>httpd-vhosts.conf.</strong> Mine  it&#8217;s located here:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false">C:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf</pre>
<p>Create the following  virtualhost:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false">&lt;VirtualHost *:80&gt;
 ServerAdmin webmaster@yourdomain.com
 DocumentRoot "C:\xampp\htdocs\public_html"
 ServerName sitedeveloopments.lh
 ServerAlias www.sitedeveloopments.lh
 &lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>
<p>Replace the <strong>DocumentRoot</strong> to your document root. My DocumentRoot is: <strong>&#8220;C:\xampp\htdocs\public_html&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Replace the <strong>ServerName</strong> and <strong>ServerAlias</strong> to the name you created earlier in the hosts file. In my case it was <strong>sitedevelopments.lh</strong><br />
Don&#8217;t forget to create a Virtual Host for <strong>localhost</strong> aswell. Add that VirtualHost below the first VirtualHost:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false">&lt;VirtualHost *:80&gt;
    ServerAdmin webmaster@example.com
    DocumentRoot "C:\Users\Johan\xampp\htdocs"
    ServerName localhost
    ServerAlias localhost
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>
<p>This <strong>DocumentRoot</strong> is for <strong>localhost, </strong>My<strong> DocumentRoot</strong> is here: <strong>&#8220;C:\xampp\htdocs&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Save httpd-vhosts.conf.</p>
<p>Now your httpd-vhosts.conf should look something like this:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false">#
# Virtual Hosts
#
# If you want to maintain multiple domains/hostnames on your
# machine you can setup VirtualHost containers for them. Most configurations
# use only name-based virtual hosts so the server doesn't need to worry about
# IP addresses. This is indicated by the asterisks in the directives below.
#
# Please see the documentation at
# &lt;URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/&gt;
# for further details before you try to setup virtual hosts.
#
# You may use the command line option '-S' to verify your virtual host

<p>Now you need to create the user so WordPress can login to the database you have created.<br />
Go to the Menu Privileges as seen in picture below:<br />
<a href="http://www.sitedevelopments.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/privileges-menu.png"><img src="http://www.sitedevelopments.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/privileges-menu.png" alt="" title="privileges-menu" width="640" height="178" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-880" /></a><br />
Then click <strong>Add a new Use</strong>r see picture below:<br />

<blockquote><p>Now you have created the user for WordPress.</p></blockquote>
<p>Now we should give it the right to access the database in my case I am going to give it access to the database <strong>mywordpressdb</strong>.<br />
Go to <strong>User Overview</strong> under the tab <strong>Privileges</strong> and press <strong>Edit</strong> beside the user that you created for your WordPress Database. Se picture below:<br />

When you are in Edit Privileges under the post <strong>Database-specific privileges</strong><br />
Go to <strong>Add privilieges on the following database</strong> and select the database you created for WordPress in the dropdown meny.<br />
Then when you are in Edit Privileges: User &#8216;WpLocal1&#8242;@&#8217;localhost&#8217; &#8211; Database mywordpressdb.<br />

<p>2. <a href="#MySQL">Create a database</a> for WordPress on your local web server, as well as a <a href="#MySQLUser">MySQL user</a> who has all privileges for accessing and modifying it.</p>
<p>3. Move the WordPress files to the directory that you have set up for your environment. In my case it is: <strong>/MyWebb/sitedevelopments</strong>.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">■ If you want to integrate WordPress into the root of your domain (e.g. http://sitedevelopments.lh/), move or all contents of the unzipped WordPress directory (but excluding the directory itself) into the root directory of your local web server.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">■ If you want to have your WordPress installation in its own subdirectory on your web site (e.g. <strong>http://sitedevelopments.lh/blog/</strong>), rename the directory wordpress to the name you&#8217;d like the subdirectory to have and move it to your local web server. For example if you want the WordPress installation in a subdirectory called &#8220;blog&#8221;, you should rename the directory called &#8220;wordpress&#8221; to &#8220;blog&#8221; and move it to the root directory of your local web server.</p>
<p>4. Run the WordPress installation script by accessing wp-admin/install.php in a web browser.<br />
■ If you installed WordPress in the root directory, you should visit: http://sitedevelopments.lh/wp-admin/install.php</p>
<p>■ If you installed WordPress in its own subdirectory called blog, for example, you should visit: http://sitedevelopments.lh/blog/wp-admin/install.php</p>
<blockquote><p>That&#8217;s it! WordPress should now be installed and your XAMPP installed and configured. Have fun!</p></blockquote>

<p>After downloading simply open a Linux terminal and type the following commands:</p>
<p>1. First we need to get the downloaded file in my case it&#8217;s in a folder called <strong>tmp</strong></p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false"> cd /tmp</pre>
<p>2. Extract the downloaded archive file to /opt:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false">sudo tar xvfm xampp-linux-1.7.7.tar.gz -C /opt</pre>
<blockquote><p>Warning already installed XAMPP versions get overwritten by this command.</p></blockquote>
<p>That&#8217;s all. XAMPP is now installed below the <strong>/opt/lampp</strong> directory.</p>

<blockquote><p>XAMPP is only for a development environment. NOT a production environment!</p></blockquote>
<p>XAMPP is configured is to be open as possible and allowing the developer anything he/she wants. For development environments this is great but in a production environment it could be fatal.</p>
<p>Here a list of missing security in XAMPP:</p>
<ol>
<li>The MySQL administrator (root) has <strong>no</strong> password.</li>
<li>The MySQL daemon is accessible via network.</li>
<li>ProFTPD uses the password &#8220;lampp&#8221; for user &#8220;nobody&#8221;.</li>
<li>PhpMyAdmin is accessible via network.</li>
<li>Examples are accessible via network.</li>
<li>MySQL and Apache running under the same user (nobody).</li>
</ol>
<p>To fix most of the security weaknesses simply call the following command:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false">/opt/lampp/lampp security</pre>
<p>It starts a small security check and makes your XAMPP installation quite secure. For example this protects the XAMPP demo pages by a username (&#8216;lampp&#8217;) and password combination.</p>

<div id="attachment_809" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 662px"><a href="http://www.sitedevelopments.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/hosts-linux.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-809" title="hosts file Linux" src="http://www.sitedevelopments.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/hosts-linux.png" alt="" width="652" height="530" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">hosts file</p></div>
<p>Save your hosts file.</p>

<p id="VirtualHosts"><hr>
			<span class="supertagline"> <br />
Set up Virtual Hosts<br />
 </span>
			<br class="clear">
			<hr></p>
<blockquote><p>First you need to enable virtual hosts in your httpf.conf.</p></blockquote>
<p>To open httpd.conf so you can edit it you have to open up a terminal window and type:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false"> gksudo gedit /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf</pre>
<p>That opens up the httpd.conf file in gedit so you can save it.<br />
Press ctrl+F and search for Include etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf<br />
The row looks like this:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false"># Virtual hosts
#Include etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf</pre>
<p>Remove # before Include etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf to include httpd-vhosts.conf<br />
Like this:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false"># Virtual hosts
Include etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf</pre>
<p>Save the file.</p>
<p>Then open up httpd-vhosts.conf by typing this in your terminal:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false"> gksudo gedit /opt/lampp/etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf</pre>
<p>Create the following virtualhost:</p>
<blockquote><p>Replace <strong>sitedevelopments.lh</strong> with your Local Domain Name that you created here: <a href="#localdomainname">Set up Local Domain Name</a></p></blockquote>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false">&lt;VirtualHost *:80&gt;
    ServerAdmin webmaster@sitedevelopments.lh

    CustomLog logs/sitedevelopments.lh-access_log
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>
<blockquote><p>Replace the <strong>DocumentRoot</strong> with your document root.</p></blockquote>
<p>Save httpd-vhosts.conf.</p>
<p>Now your httpd-vhosts.conf should look something like this:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false">#
# Virtual Hosts
#
# If you want to maintain multiple domains/hostnames on your
# machine you can setup VirtualHost containers for them. Most configurations
# use only name-based virtual hosts so the server doesn't need to worry about
# IP addresses. This is indicated by the asterisks in the directives below.
#
# Please see the documentation at
# &lt;URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/&gt;
# for further details before you try to setup virtual hosts.
#
# You may use the command line option '-S' to verify your virtual host
# configuration.

#
# Use name-based virtual hosting.
#
NameVirtualHost *:80

#
# VirtualHost example:
# Almost any Apache directive may go into a VirtualHost container.
# The first VirtualHost section is used for all requests that do not
# match a ServerName or ServerAlias in any &lt;VirtualHost&gt; block.
#

&lt;VirtualHost *:80&gt;
    ServerAdmin webmaster@sitedevelopments.lh
    DocumentRoot /MyWebb/sitedevelopments
    ServerName sitedevelopments.lh
    ServerAlias www.sitedevelopments.lh
    ErrorLog logs/sitedevelopments.lh-error_log
    CustomLog logs/sitedevelopments.lh-access_log
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>
<p>Restart Apache Service by typing in the following in your termainal:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false">sudo /opt/lampp/lampp restart</pre>
<p>Test your virtual server by typing in your domain name in the browser. If you don&#8217;t have any files in your DocumentRoot then create index.html and Write something in it.</p>

			 Secure XAMPP development platform 
			
			
When you are using the XAMPP development platform you shouldn&#8217;t forget to make it a bit more secure. First go and check how secure your environment are by cliking on the follwwing url or typing it in your browser:
http://localhost/security/</p>

<p>Secure XAMPP pages
To secure your XAMPP pages go to http://localhost/security/xamppsecurity.php
Under XAMPP DIRECTORY PROTECTION (.htaccess) Type in the Username and Password you like to have. and press the button Make safe the XAMPP directory.</p>
<p>I am not kidding it says that. You must love their English translation there!!</p>
<p>After that you can&#8217;t go in to XAMPP pages without having to type in the username and password.</p>
<p> Secure MySQL
You have to set password for root on your MySQL server.
You can do this in two ways</p>
<p>Option 1.</p>
<p>To set the password &#8220;NopeYouAintGonnaGetin&#8221; for the user &#8220;root&#8221;, type the following:</p>

<p><div class="superquote"> Secure MySQL</div><br />
You have to set password for root on your MySQL server.<br />
You can do this in two ways</p>
<p>Option 1.</p>
<p>To set the password &#8220;NopeYouAintGonnaGetin&#8221; for the user &#8220;root&#8221;, type the following:</p>
<blockquote><p>If your installation path is different than <strong>C:\xampp\</strong> you have to change to your installation path to run mysqladmin</p></blockquote>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false">C:\xampp\mysql\bin\mysqladmin.exe -u root -p NopeYouAintGonnaGetin</pre>
<p>Option 2.</p>
<blockquote><p>If you use this solution then you do not need to follow Secure PhpAdmin section. Even though with that said you can&#8217;t create a secure password if you do it this way because you can not use special characters like <strong>&lt;öäü</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Go to <a href="http://localhost/security/xamppsecurity.php">http://localhost/security/xamppsecurity.php</a><br />
Under the MYSQL SECTION: &#8220;ROOT&#8221; PASSWORD input the New password: and then repeat the password. Before you save you should decide if you want PhpMyAdmin authentification: to be <strong>http </strong>or <strong>cookie</strong><br />
Then press the Password Changing button. Now you have changed the password for your root user.<br />
<div class="superquote"> Secure PhpAdmin</div><br />
After changing the password root password for MySQL user you&#8217;ll have to reconfigure phpMyAdmin to use the new password, otherwise it won&#8217;t be able to access the databases. To do that, open the file <strong>config.inc.php</strong> in <strong>\xampp\phpmyadmin\</strong> and edit the following lines:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false">$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = '';</pre>
<p><strong>to</strong></p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false">$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'Insert Your secure password';</pre>
<p><strong>and</strong></p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false">$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config';</pre>
<p><strong>to</strong></p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false">$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'http'; // HTTP authentification</pre>
<p><strong>or</strong>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false">$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie'; // cookie authentification</pre>
<p>Then save the file.</p>
<p><div class="superquote">Secure FileZilla FTP </div><br />
Make sure that you have started FileZilla so you can check the status of your ftp server.<br />
If it says: The FileZilla FTP password is still &#8216;wampp&#8217; and you know you are going to use the ftp service then you need to change your password.<br />
You do that by clicking on the Admin button on XAMMP Control Panel and then login with the password <strong>wampp</strong> Then when you are logged in to FileZilla Server you should click on:</p>
<blockquote><p>Edit-&gt;Users</p></blockquote>
<p>Before you change the password you should disable access to anonymous you do that by clicking on Enable account so it isn&#8217;t checked any more.<br />
After that you select the user <strong>newuser</strong> and type a password in the password box and press ok.<br />
Now you have changed the password.</p>
<h2>Remember</h2>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>If your computer is not online or blocked by a firewall, your servers are SECURE against outside attacks.</li>
<li>If servers are not running, these servers are although SECURE!</li>
</ul>

<p>So you want to remove the  via @AddThis. I can&#8217;t blame you for being irritated that they don&#8217;t have that in the settings yet. But as usual we help our readers with an easy solution until they have fixed the plugin. Please keep in mind that if you update the plugin in the future you have to redo this steps.</p>
<p>You can do this in two ways.
 Option 1. Download the file from your server. </p>
<p>Download the file addthis_social_widget.php from you server.</p>
<p>Located in the folder wp-content\plugins\addthis
Search for:</p>
&#60;a class="addthis_button_tweet"&#62;&#60;/a&#62;
<p>You should find it in this two arrays: &#8216;fb_tw_p1_sc&#8217; =&#62; array and &#8216;fb_tw_sc&#8217; =&#62; array in my file they are on row 68 and 70.</p>
add tw:via="yourtwitterusername"
<p>I changed it and added sitedevelopment because it&#8217;s our twittername so mine reads:</p>
&#60;a class="addthis_button_tweet" tw:via="sitedevelopment"&#62;&#60;/a&#62;
<p>Save the file and upload it to your server.
Enjoy!</p>

<p>You should find it in this two arrays: <strong>&#8216;fb_tw_p1_sc&#8217; =&gt; array</strong> and <strong>&#8216;fb_tw_sc&#8217; =&gt; array</strong> in my file they are on row 68 and 70.</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false">add tw:via="yourtwitterusername"</pre>
<p>I changed it and added sitedevelopment because it&#8217;s our twittername so mine reads:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false">&lt;a class="addthis_button_tweet" tw:via="sitedevelopment"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</pre>
<p>Save the file and upload it to your server.<br />

<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false; first-line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false">add tw:via="yourtwitterusername"</pre>
<p>I changed it and added sitedevelopment because it&#8217;s our twittername so mine reads:</p>
<pre class="brush: text; gutter: false">&lt;a class="addthis_button_tweet" tw:via="sitedevelopment"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</pre>
<p>When your done click on the update file button.<br />
