WampServer

Hello,

It is possible to add PHP 7.0.0 Alpha 1 to Wampserver 2.5
Since PHP 7 is compiled with VC14 (Visual C++ 2015), it is essential, before trying to install PHP 7, to install the redistributable package VC14.

VC14 Packages (Required for PHP 7)
Totally incompatible with Windows XP.
The two files vcredist_x86.exe et vcredist_x64.exe to be download are on the same page:
Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2015 RC

If you have a 64-bit Windows, you must install both 32 and 64bit versions, even if you do not use Wampserver 64 bit.

That's what I did (Note: this is from my Wampserver 2.5.17 [see [forum.wampserver.com]], which has also just go into 2.5.18 with PHP support 7)
- Download PHP 7 archive: [windows.php.net]
- Create a folder wamp\bin\php\php7.0.0a1\
- Unzip the archive in this folder
- In this folder put a wampserver.conf file, modified from PHP 5.5 or 5.6

<?php

$phpConf['phpIniDir'] = '.';
$phpConf['phpExeDir'] = '.';
$phpConf['phpConfFile'] = 'php.ini';

//PHP 7 needs Apache 2.4.x and doesn't works with Apache 2.2.x

$phpConf['apache']['2.4']['LoadModuleName'] = 'php7_module';
$phpConf['apache']['2.4']['LoadModuleFile'] = 'php7apache2_4.dll';
$phpConf['apache']['2.4']['AddModule'] =  '';

?>

- Modify the file wamp/scripts/config.inc.php to add dll support for PHP 7 :

//dll to create symbolic links from php to apache/bin
// 55 for PHP 7
$icu = array(
	'number' => array('55', '54', '53', '52', '51', '50', '49'),
	'name' => array('icudt', 'icuin', 'icuio', 'icule', 'iculx', 'icutest', 'icutu', 'icuuc'),
	);

and

//[modif oto] - Apache modules which should not be disabled
$apacheModNotDisable = array(
	'php5_module',
	'php7_module',
	);

Note: Allows for installation in C:\wamp. Change the paths depending on your installation.
Copy the php.ini-development file as php.ini

when wampserver with php 7

Hi,

Dear Otomatic,

Today I was installing php 7.0.2 in my wamp server to see how it worked with my wordpress site. After a couple of very confusing attempts I came upon your post above. That was extremely well done and saved me a lot of trouble. After following your guide it just came up and ran perfectly on the first try. Thank you so much!

--Bill

Thank you.
Instructions from 1st post worked like a charm (besides a few edits).

I installed php7.0.2 on some 2.5 wamp server.
Changes were:
1. my wamp /scripts/config.inc.php had different layout for $icu array (the individual names were separately added in the array)
2. for php7.0.2 the dll's end with 56 not 55 (eg icudt56.dll)

Hi,

- Update Wampserver 2.5 to 3.0.3 (See [forum.wampserver.com]).
- Update to 3.0.4
Then you will be able to install PHP 7.0.5 addon.

Bad news :

I can't do that since WampServer 3.0.4 Doesn't display my Joomla! 3 website correctly...

Quit with the smart comments and describe EXACTLY what you have done.

And exactly WHAT you have installed.

And exactly WHAT DOES NOT WORK!

Do you realise that you can install WAMPServer3.0.4 and then Apply

ADDONS for PHP versions 5.4 or 5.5 or 5.6 and even PHP5.3 if that is necessary

One of these versions should run any version of Joomla.

If you tell us EXACTLY what it is that does not work for you, we can make useful suggestions!

Please look at the array of available addons here [wampserver.aviatechno.net]
