[brandlite]

Ive installed e-novative's wamp before on my machine to develop, im on windows, but i dont know how i can make it run as an actual server in my machine.

i have a windows server and i need to run php scripts and mysql databases, what can you suggets? the server is running IIS and i think i have to stop it to run apache.

also, if i stop IIs does Imail get stopped as well?

well my bigest concern is getting a php/mysql driven site working with phpmyadmin if possible

this might help ya out: http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.iis.php

Install PHP (see ub3r's link) and configure IIS to work with it, make sure you enable MySQL modules,
then install MySQL (http://mysql.net) for Windows.

If you want to run Apache and IIS together, you can run Apache (or IIS) on a different port, e.g 8080 instead of 80

I beleive they're enabled by default, but check 'php.ini' just to be sure.

Install MySQL from http://MySQL.net to add database capabilities
