WampServer

Hi,
I have installed wampserver on my notebook and all ok.
It's possible to install wampserver on a pen usb and use this on another computer?
If yes, I can copy all files from notebook to pen usb?

Thanks

it should work. hell, I once installed an entire operating system OpenSuse Linux 10.2 to my Western Digital usb drive (the best flavor of linux out there in my opinion)

www.opensuse.com

I cannot see this working myself since installing WAMP creates the Apache and MySQL services on the computer itself.

If you take your USB pen drive to a different PC then that PC will not have the services installed.

I think you would like something like 'Server2go' this is intended to run from CD but should work from a pendrive.

Regards,

expect it to only work on NT machines that you have sufficient administrator rights.

be warned, several machines do have assigned port 80 already to a dummy IIS.
(there is yet no smart checking in the wamp package for circumventing this.)

i dont know how much it takes to temporarily install the services trough batches
or maybe even those tray icon. the beinaries for the services better reside in
a "non-volatile" directory, else you might risk ejecting paranoia from the OS.

a plain install plus a patch of the config could be better and possibly ease
the case of updating the framework independent from the application data.

launching a browser on the self-ip should be the least fuzz in your quest.

you can use your usb drive. just do not install apache and mysql as services, start and stop them manually.
