XAMPP isn't in PortableApps.com Format, but it easily integrates with the PortableApps.com Menu by using the XAMPP Launcher (linked above) and installing XAMPP in the root directory of your portable device or creating an XAMPP\App\xampp directory within the launcher path and placing it there. The root directory is preferred. You can open the zip/7z archive of the portable version with 7-Zip Portable.
Security on a localhost may not be a big concern. The recent versions of XAMPP do not set a password for root, the superuser. Go to the file C:\xampp\phpmyadmin\config.inc.php, edit the line $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = ; For example to:
1. Download the latest version of Apache on apachelounge.com/download/
2. Save zipped file locally, unzip the file
3. Go to the server, stop and uninstall apache service through XAMPP control panel
4. On the downloaded apache folder, copy the libcrypto-1_1-x64.dll, libssl-1_1-x64.dll, and openssl.exe. These can be found in the bin folder
5. Replace files in $location\xampp\apache\bin with the above files
6. Install and start apache service through XAMPP control panel
7. Check if you have the latest version, it can be done by opening XAMPP control panel -> Shell, type command 'openssl' enter, 'version' enter.
However, I am trying to add an SSL certificate for my cms.techmax.com.tr domain name that I run with apache xampp on a windows device on a remote desktop in another company, but I encounter this error.
I converted pem files to key and crt files. Then I add .crt file to windows as trusted certificate. After this, I set paths of crt and key files in xampp/apache/conf/extra/httpd-ssl and its worked.
Thanks you for your help. @orangepizza @rg305
Installation for Windows is very simple. You can use the XAMPP installer executable (for example, xampp-windows-x64-7.4.4-0-VC15-installer.exe). Detailed installation instructions for Windows are available here.
For Windows, it is recommended that you install XAMPP in c:\xampp (not in c:\program files). If you do this, your Joomla! (and any other local website folders) will go into the folder c:\xampp\htdocs. (By convention, all web content goes under the htdocs folder.)
If you have multiple HTTP servers (such as IIS) you can change the XAMPP listening port. In xamppDir\apache\conf\httpd.conf, modify the line Listen 80 to Listen [portnumber] (for example: Listen 8080).
Many Mac users have a little difficulty at this stage when trying to set up another instance of Apache on their machine. If you cannot start XAMPP's Apache, you have two options:
Change the listening port of XAMPP. In \Applications\XAMPP\xamppfiles\etc\httpd.conf, modify the Listen 80 line to Listen [portNumber]. For example: Listen 8080
After you complete the steps, the package manager will download the package from the specified source, and it will proceed to install the application. The device may restart automatically during this process. The installation will set up the app inside the C:\xampp folder.
Within the installation directory, you'll find a program named Port Check (xampp-portcheck.exe). Double-clicking on this tool will display the status of the ports required for Apache, MySQL, and other software components included with XAMPP. If the essential ports are already occupied, the program will show the names of the services running on those ports.
