Apache & IIS on XP

[Jeff]

Hey

Is it possible to run both these webservers: Apache and IIS
on the same pc with XP pro sp2....?

I know this isn't a optimal solution, you see I want to do it because I'm
programming in projects that involve bolth PHP and ASP.NET (one project uses
PHP only, and the other project uses ASP.NET only - I use the webservers
only to test what I'm doing, it will not get accessed by anybody else
(localhost) )

I see a problem if both try to access port 80, but I think a solution to
that is to for example shutdown Apache when only uses IIS... - only one
webserver running at any moment....

Comments?

Yes. They would have to be configured to be listening on different
ports. You could have IIS listen on port 80, and Apache on 8080 for
example.

Just install PHP version for IIS and skip Apache

Oh...yeah, right. I saw the question in the last paragraph and didn't
pay much attention to the rest of the post. IIS can indeed handle PHP
with the referenced addin, and that will not interfere with its
ability to handle ASP pages.
