Re: [users@httpd] Re: Choosing Windows platfrorm
Thank you Brian. I got my 2 copies of WHA2011 at a $50 closeout. Had to disable much the MS server stuff to use and it has worked well in my application. Just pondering weather to 'go more modern'. Your response was very helpful to mainly confirm my analysis. Not really seeing any big benefit of using Windows 10 Pro. Thought maybe I was missing something, and this would be the group to ask.

Re: [users@httpd] Choosing Windows platfrorm
Nick, I apologize, but I do not understand what 'requirements' you are wanting. Currently running fine on WHS2011. Any benefit to switching to Windows 10 Pro? The only 'requirements' I understand is it must run Apache 2.4.x. Help me out here. What are you looking for?

[users@httpd] Choosing Windows platfrorm
Greetings! I"ve successfully run Apache, Apache2, Apache2.2 Apache 2.4 on W2K, WinXP, Win7 and WHS2011. I am currently running Apache2.4.46 OpenSSL/1.1.1j and PHP/7.4.7 on WHS2011 Stable and running since 2.4.46 was released. Thinking of upgrading hardware (and Apache2.4). Would you choose Windows 10 Pro or Windows Home Server 2011? and why? Thanks for any suggestions, (I have an application that precludes using Linux in this case.) Have fun, Paxton
