Topic : AMPPS 2.5 - installation on Windows does not update the path

Posted By: fiammybe on September 24, 2014, 12:59 pm

When I install AMPPS 2.5 on Windows 8.1 x64, the installer does not add the appropriate variables (for php.exe for example) to the path, so I can't use the CLI directly. Please add those in the install routine.

Hi,

We are purposely not setting PHP path in the environment as we think it would conflict with other PHP installation(if installed).

Hi, I don't think that's a very good way of handling that. You would want your users to consider AMPPS as the only install they'd ever need, wouldn't you? It's good to take into account the fact that there are other packages around, I applaud you for that. However, this way it feels like an unfinished installation.

This would be one of those things that make a good installation option for the user.

David
