The easiest way to do this is to try one of the prepackaged bundles that will install all of these for you:

  • XAMPP - http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html - XAMPP is an easy to install Apache distribution containing MySQL, PHP and Perl. XAMPP is really very easy to install and to use - just download, extract and start. Install options exist for the following platforms:
    • XAMPP for Linux
    • XAMPP for Windows
    • XAMPP for Mac OS X
    • XAMPP for Solaris

Note: If you use XAMPP on Windows you will probably need to disable PEAR, which is installed by default. See this post for more information.



An alternative is to set up each portion by hand. Many guides can be found on the net for how install and configure the three on Windows.
