Hi,
Softaculous is meant for the hosting industry as it integrates into many hosting control panels. AMPPS is a free WAMP Stack which is meant for developers, internal office usage and local web servers. Its a very good replacement for XAMPP & WAMP Server. The scripts can be used for development purposes, internal offices, etc like you might want to have a MediaWiki for your own office. ----------------------- Follow AMPPS on, Twitter : https://twitter.com/AMPPS_Stack Facebook : http://www.facebook.com/softaculousampps Google+ : https://plus.google.com/+AmppsStack |

Hi,
Let me tell you first AMPPS is not like Production Control Panel like Plesk. It is a simple WAMP Stack for developers with Softaculous to install open source scripts easily. Quote It surprised me to see AMPPS using the same web server as the apps. If you make a problem with a config you cannot undo it. You can Restore Default Configuration provided by AMPPS. AMPPS Application -> Apache Tab -> Restore Default Configuration Quote Surprised me when I added a domain, it didn't create the directory and put in a cgi-bin directory and starter index file. Sir, this function should work. You must have parked a Domain to existing domain. If not Please open a ticket, we will surely look into this and solve this as soon as possible. Quote I it maintains the vhosts file, but I don't see any :442 entries in VHosts. If you are talking about SSL support i.e :443 entries we are not yet providing this feature. Quote Something is fishy about VHosts that I haven't tracked down yet. It
only shows the first domain. The second domain typed in browser shows the domain. I am not able to get this. I guess this will be solved with Domain problem. Quote It doesn't maintain the HOST file. If you are talking about Windows host file, we haven't added this feature as it is risky to play with host file. Quote - Paths to PHP and Perl are not set up.
- PerlInfo throws a 404. I don't think Perl is integrated. Perl is not working. - I tried a script on a site and it went in perfectly. Since you are able to access Enduser Panel and install apps, your PHP looks fine. We will look into PERL path. Quote If there are some instructions somewhere that lists the steps of what to do next to get the rest working like it should, I haven't found them yet. You can get more info from our Wiki. Thanks for using AMPPS. Please open a ticket so that we can look into the issues you are facing. ----------------------- Follow AMPPS on, Twitter : https://twitter.com/AMPPS_Stack Facebook : http://www.facebook.com/softaculousampps Google+ : https://plus.google.com/+AmppsStack |

Hi Sir,
Quote I've been setting up my own development area manually for the past 15 years, and work with all the control panels. For AMPPS, I'm still establishing a point of reference as to what it does, and what I need to do. To your credit, it looks like a control panel. Thanks, if it looks like a Panel then it is only for local development. Quote I followed the WiKi, but it does not address what AMPPS does, and what the developer still needs to do after setting up a new domain. Domains here are only the computer name or IP addresses of the computers on local network. Here is an example what domains can do on local network. Quote From investigation I learned that AMPPS does the vhost entries. I assumed that since OpenSSL was in, that it was configured, and I should see :442s in the vhosts, and an entry in hosts. We will be adding many features in this package. This might also be the one. Quote It’s worth noting that the install will not work the first time around with the firewall on. When the firewall message pops up to allow the apps to use the ports, it's too late. The install has already failed. It works first time, every time if you turn off the firewall before you start, and after the install turn the firewall on and then approve the access. Sir we couldn't replicate this issue. Quote I didn’t park any domains. This is most likely a rights issue. The nice thing about installing in Program Files is the default Windows security offers protection. (Vista Ultimate 32 patched to the latest from MS and I Windows 7 is the same.) That same protection becomes a problem for writes. The way I handle that now is by using includes and placing the configs and sites at www\configs and www\vhosts. This allows me to maintain the Windows default security in Program Files and User, and do what is necessary in www. The most immediate course of action for me would be to try an install of AMPPS off root. Did you install the software as Administrator ? Also access it as an Administrator. Quote Correct me if I’m wrong, but I gather the backup functionality is designed to only back up the subdirectory that contains a scripted install of software performed by Softaculous, and the data from any database(s) that were created by the script. To summarize, what these backups contain is that subdirectory and any new and changed files, and the data structures along with the most current data.. Yes, you are right. ----------------------- Follow AMPPS on, Twitter : https://twitter.com/AMPPS_Stack Facebook : http://www.facebook.com/softaculousampps Google+ : https://plus.google.com/+AmppsStack |
