How to install PHP intranet at work?


Question

Hi everyone,

I would like to install a basic PHP Intranet at work with a MySQL Database.

I managed to install the website on the main Server (Windows Server 2008),

I can access the website via "http://localhost/" and "http://127.0.0.1"

but I can't access this website from my other work computers on the same network.

All my company computers are connected through a LAN network.

How can I make the website accessible to all computers connected to the network?

Thanks

You need to asign a Host header to the website, so the server knows to what host header to listen to and to which site to redirect. You can host multiple sites on one server and with Host headers you determine which site to load on which url

example: http://192.168.1.10/ or http://intranet.companydomain.com/

I'm using Apache on XAMPP (but I can use IIS if you think it'll be easier)

Can you give me more details about the "Host header"... I don't know what it means

I tried to access the IP of of the server http://192.168.1.10/

but I receive a 404 page error

It's because of this error that I ask for your help

Remove XAMPP from the production server. Just use IIS. PHP + IIS is fine. http://www.microsoft.com/web/platform/phponwindows.aspx

IIS + PHP will be easier to share on the internal server than using XAMPP?

This link you provided me is excellent!! :)

Yes. XAMPP on a production server is not acceptable. It's fine if you need something quick and dirty on your development machine, but you need to know how to maintain and manage Apache, PHP, mods, database (mysql), and security, individually when working in a production environment. Over the course of the machine's lifetime, something will break, and you'll need to know how to support it.

IIS 7 (the version on Windows Server 2008) is very powerful. Microsoft has worked with the PHP project directly to make sure PHP works well under IIS 7.

    • hi thanks for input. those two modems are supported  thankfully. i really am leaning towards the b12 though since there's a few complaints of the cm3000 and its chipset (drops and whatnot), although those might just be vocal minority complaints.
    • A PDF or text file is all you need for Copilot to generate a PowerPoint for you in seconds by Usama Jawad Assistive AI is all the rage these days. In the past few hours alone, we have witnessed AI summaries on YouTube, context-aware text generation capabilities in Google Sheets, Gemini tools on the cloud, the availability of additional AI models with smarter defaults in Visual Studio, and chat summarization on WhatsApp. Now, Microsoft has detailed an upcoming Copilot capability in PowerPoint. Microsoft has outlined a streamlined approach to creating PowerPoint presentations within seconds using a PDF or text file, and a natural language prompt as input. Previously, you could just ground Word files for this purpose, so support for additional formats is certainly welcome. In order to generate a slide deck using Copilot, you can simply open a PowerPoint presentation in the platform of your choice and click the Copilot button. In the resulting Copilot pane, select the "Create a presentation from a file" option, which allows you to type in the name of a PDF or text file stored on the cloud or browse for files in OneDrive or SharePoint manually using the "Attach cloud files" button. You can then refine your prompt by adding details about items that you'd like Copilot to focus on and click the "Send" button. This will generate the slide deck which you can rearrange or add more topics to, before you create the final version of the presentation. Of course, this is a particularly useful feature in many scenarios including those which require you to create a slide deck based on some detailed documentation that you have already completed. That said, it's obviously worth vetting any content that Copilot creates, since data inaccuracy is still a concern when it comes to AI models. This feature is available to Insiders across PowerPoint for web, Windows, and Mac for the following versions: Windows: Version 2409 (Build 18025.20000) or later Mac: Version 16.88 (Build 24082514) or later That said, you do need an Enterprise Copilot license in order to utilize the AI assistant in this way.
    • >For instance, if you are watching a tutorial, you could ask for a summary or even for a quiz on the main points. At that point, the content creator should get their cut, Google. Instead: >If people are getting everything they need from a summary without ever clicking through, there's not much reason to watch the actual video. That means fewer views, less watch time, and less money. Do content creators get to write their own summaries or turn off Google's summary content thievery? Somehow I doubt it...
