WampServer

Apache is good webserver. But I rent webserver account which runs nginx webserver.
It is seriously different characteristics which makes my php apps didn't work.

I need only nginx server with everything as easy as wampserver tray control (www dir, vhost dir, service status, easy switching server, etc)


Is there any chance for nginx addon?

thankyou

Hi,

At the long-term project stage; it being understood that the "long term" is of indefinite duration.

I'm very curious what PHP code might work with Apache, but not with nginx !!
PHP is a language for which, in its documentation, I have not (yet) seen any differences depending on the server used.

It is here that the qualitative "easy" takes on its full meaning.

As easy as it is to integrate PHP with Apache, a simple additional module load is enough in the Apache configuration file, for example:

LoadModule php7_module "${INSTALL_DIR}/bin/php/php7.2.4/php7apache2_4.dll"

As much as this is complicated with nginx, especially since it would seem that it requires non thread safe PHP versions while those already in place with Wampserver are thread safe and that there is no other way than to go through a proxy and php-cgi.exe.

Nevertheless, a first step has already been taken:
j:\wamp\bin\nginx\nginx1.13.12\nginx.exe
with the possibility to create a "wampnginx" service and start or stop it by Wampserver.

Its because some 'server variable' which is set by apache but not by nginx. For example "PATH_INFO". Also folder credential which depends on apache .htaccess

It's about AESTAN TRAY. I have put \bin\nginx\nginx1.13.12\nginx.exe. It works... but manually open the folder and run it. Not using good standard of WAMPSERVER tray menu.
