Just fyi - i used wampserver on win 2003 and it works correctly, but if you look into the windows system log the wampserver service restarts itself about every 5 to 10 minutes

Hi, I am planning to implement the Apache webserver to serve a mission critical and heavy submission processing system through the web. Please advice if the Apache webserver is suitable for this purpose and what are the largest file format that it can support. Please give this in MB.

I prefer XAMPP from http://www.apachefriends.org.

I wrote about how I set up WAMP server - albeit an internal testing one (and therefore I didn’t deal with any security issues) - but this worked for me: http://www.waterfallweb.net/archives/2004/12/wamp/

It is worth noting here that having an Apache running on windows is something completely different,then on nix like platforms.
The Xampp package is quitte good,since it comes along with Apache 2 which should be considered standard.
It can be launched as a service,and swithing it on and off si just a click away.It comes with a bunch of binary modules which you can turn on and off.
You can swich back and forth between PHP4 and PHP5 with a batch file.(That's good for testing things)
I have a small problem though.The PHP4 branch is version 4.3.10 and I want it to be 4.3.3
How XAMPP's PHP versions can be upgraded i still don't know
