#APACHE SERVER TUTORIAL MANUAL#
The automatic version will operate on port 80, which is the default port for HTTP communication, while the manual version operates on another port, 8080 in this case. The radiobuttons are a bit more important - you should decide whether or not the webserver should be installed as a service, which will be started automatically by Windows, or as a standard application, which you may start manually. They are not that important for our purposes, and neither are the e-mail field. You may enter localhost in the first two fields, like I've done. Everything should be very standard, until you reach this screen: Using an installer makes the whole thing much easier.Īfter downloading it, start the installer and accept the license terms etc. If you're a Windows user, which this tutorial assumes, then please click the download link saying "Win32 Binary (MSI Installer)". As of writing, the current version is 2.2.4. Go to the download page, and select the proper download link under the header saying something like "Apache HTTP Server X.X.X is the best available version".
Giving a direct link to a download would not make sense, since Apache is often updated.
