I apologize if I don’t have the trust other people do.
I have in the past just downloaded all the ingredients and put them one at a time on my computer. I just use it to do small programming things.
Don’t want to get a giant executable in which ANYTHING can be installed, without my knowledge, though it probably does the way I have did it in the past. Who knows.
I normally put Apache on first, but everytime I turn around there are different patches. I then put PhP followed by MySQL. Not sure why it failed last time.
It said with Aparche 2.2 to use PhP 5.2 and not 5.3. Just too many variations now.
