Thanks Ross
I to use Xampplite on flash drives, the only reason I'm looking at other options is because under MOE3 (win 7) students can't run the set up bat file at school and IMS seem to think that the ability to run an exe on a flash drive is less threatening then running a bat file and have set a global policy that restricts students running a bat file. I now am thinking about converting the bat to an exe because xampplite is very quick and easy Cheers Damien Reynolds I.T Teacher | Accredited Facilitator - SCPDF | Iconnect Moderator eLearn Mentor - Kepnock SHS | NCR Accredited Facilitator ------------------------ Phone: 41311888 Fax: 41311800 This message (including attachments) is intended for the addressee named above.

From: JARDINE Ross [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, 7 March 2011 6:45 AM To: 'QSITE ICT Teachers' Cc: 'REYNOLDS Damien' Subject: RE: [qsiteict] SQL & MIS Damien, We have been using xammp lite since 2007. Apache web server - PHP and PERL built in plus a MYSQL server. It works a treat, but is difficult (for students) to transfer to a live web page e.g. MIS. When you give a user DB privaleges in MIS you will get $con to copy and paste. You will also get listed separately the username, password and server name so you can break down mysql_connect() for the students. You should print the information on student's db page immediately and twice. One for you and one for them. Finding the information after the db has been created in a pain. I have used MIS last year for students' Major Projects and will not this year! PHP pages hosted in MIS do not return an error messages for Parse errors, unexpected T_echo errors and numerous other error categories. In MIS when a syntax error occurs the page is blank. When using Xampp this only occurs when the PHP works but there is an error in the SQL being passed to the SQL server. PHP code is already pretty hard to debug (without CS5) this makes it close to impossible for students to find syntax errors in code.

From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Peter Cruickshank Sent: Friday, 4 March 2011 5:04 PM To: QSITE ICT Teachers Cc: REYNOLDS Damien Subject: Re: [qsiteict] SQL & MIS Damien, By default, students do not have a database allocated to them in MIS. Your MIS administrator is the only person who can create these databases from somewhere in MIS - it's been a long time (& I've since given up on using MIS for hosting web pages) . We had a large number of the databases not working after the MIS administrator created the accounts, so we had to forward the account details to the help desk and they set up all the databases that didn't work. I have just finished a 2 day course with Richard Kelly and Paul Herring, and we ran xampp very successfully from memory sticks. Xampp runs a database and web server from their memory stick and hosts it through localhost. This is how I will approach it next time I teach it, cos the kids can take the memory stick home and still access a web/database server. Cheers & Beers Cruickers.
