I have worked on Zend-Framework on linux environment since last 6 months where i used to install the zend framework by simply creating a virtual host and in the corresponding virtual host i will change the path to the zend public folder.. In this way I installed zend framework on Linux (Ubuntu) but currently i have requirment to install to zend framework on windows 7 + xampp , i am not able to install this.. i stuck there...please help me to install zend on windows + xampp environment.
Thanks in Advance!!
You can do pretty much the same as you have done under Linux. You will need to go in your Xampp install. There, you will have a bin folder (might be an other name) which will contain your apache folder. In that folder, dig deep enough to find the httpd.conf file.
In that file, search for the include of the vhost.conf files. It will probably be commented out with a # at the beginning of the line. Uncomment it. Take note of the path and find the vhost file (most likely in the extras folder).
In that file, you can define your vhost as you see fit.
Last step, go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc and edit the hosts file. To edit it, you have to be admin (launch NotePad as admin through right clic menu > Execute as administrator). Add the name of the vhost you just created and make it point to your localhost ip address.
Restart Xampp, it should now find your freshly created vhost.

I am trying to install Zendframework Version 1.11.11 to my PC using Xampp version 3.1.0 3.10 . When I run the "ZF" command in "cmd" I receive the message "ZF is not a recognized operation.....".
What I tried so far:
Going to my computer properties and changing the path. ;\C:\xampp\php; and \C:\Zend\bin
What else can I do to solve this problem?
The path to zf (to the zf.bat file, to be exact) needs to be in your system path, not in php.ini includes. Refer to this question on Superuser. If your OS is not Win 7, you might need to google for the corretc instructions on setting the path.
Alternatively, you can also use the zf command with the full path:
C:\xampp\Zend\bin\zf create project myproj
MAC OSX 10.7.5 -- MAMP 2.1.3 -- XDEBUG 2.2.3
I used the xdebug wizzard to download and install using the terminal. After following the steps
Rebooted MAMP but no xdebug in phpinfo();
I thought it was weird that the wizzard says all you have to do it paste zend_extension = /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.4.10/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20100525/xdebug.so in the end of your php.ini file
I did add quotes around the pathname - the pathname from the wizzard came without them
Every other tutorial says there is more than just this one line that needs to be added
MAMP seems to have its own 'zend_extension = "/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.4.10/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20100525/xdebug.so"' that just needs to becommented out. Anyway I tried both the pasting from the wizzard as well as uncommenting.
Since I'm trying to use xdebug with my PHPstorm trial, I checked for the steps layed you at http://www.dotvoid.com/2012/09/using-xdebug-in-mamp/
Again it's weird: Here it says that all you need to do it add these 2 lines
xdebug.remote_host=127.0.0.1
xdebug.remote_enable = 1
It's weird because other tutorials make you add more lines (back when I tried to get xdebug on an older version of MAMP to go with netbeans without success) about the localhost.
Here's what's in my php.ini file now:
[xdebug]
zend_extension= "/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.4.10/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20100525/xdebug.so"
xdebug.default_enable=1
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_handler=dbgp
xdebug.remote_host=localhost
xdebug.remote_port=9000
xdebug.remote_autostart=1
I also checked if I'm configuring the right php.ini file, looking in phpinfo(); where it says which php.ini file is loaded. In this case /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.4.10/conf/php.ini I verified if this is the correct php.ini file that I'm edititing and it is.
The last anwser in this SO question here speaks of two certain files that need to be the same binary maybe one file is 32bit binary and the other one is 64bit. When I tried to check this, the files mentioned in that question (/path/to/mamp/Library/modules/php5.3/libphp5.so) are not in my current installation of MAMP. In my current installation, I can go to Applications/MAMP/Library/modules, but there is no folder in that modules folder, leave alone one that says php of any sort.
In this tutorial, there is a mention of updating PEARL. This may not be relevant to my issue but I just followed it because I don't know really, I thought it wouldn't hurt. When I try to do that in my terminal the error message says
Xdebug requires Zend Engine API version 220090626.
The Zend Engine API version 220100525 which is installed, is newer.
Contact Derick Rethans at http://xdebug.org/docs/faq#api for a later version of Xdebug.
I found this issue in the xdebug FAQ. I quote
it is most likely because you compiled Xdebug against PHP headers that belong to a different PHP version that you're running
Further explanation confirms that the message about the zend api version points to the same issue and that two versions of PHP are colliding somehow.
The solution to this is explained on the same FAQ page where it says
Q: How do I find which phpize to use? [...]If it doesn't match up, and perhaps the wrong "phpize" binary is found on the path, you can
run configure as follows:
1. /full/path/to/php/bin/phpize
2. ./configure --with-php-config=/full/path/to/php/bin/php-config
I don't know how to interpret this in practice. But here's what I have tried
I was still in the /usr/bin and tried the first command usr/bin/phize. this returned Cannot find config.m4. Make sure that you run '/usr/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the module
I don't know what they mean by the top level source directory of the module. Maybe 1. and 2. are 1 command? And the module means xdebug.so?
No matter what I try though, I keep getting the Cannot find config.m4 error whenever I just even try to run phpize. I tried running phpize from /usr/bin/phpize or from /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.4.10/bin/phpize. Same error came
I have installed a xampp portable package on my drive D, added the php folder path inside it on the system environment so I would be able to run php basically anywhere from the command line. but when i try to check if its working by executing the "php -v" command, it runs but i get this following error/warning messages.
"Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'xampp-portable\php\ext[:any].dll - The specified module could not be found."
*the [:any] there just means some dll filename.
and i get a lot of that warnings with just varying dll filenames,
anyway, here's the catch. when i do change my current path in the command line to somewhere in drive D, and then run the same command "php -v" it runs smoothly.
so what configuration should i do to fix this problem?
by the way, i do the same with mysql, putting its bin directory path on the system enviroment, run it in both inside drive C and drive D. and it runs smoothly. so i guess this problem is only on php.
I've posted the same question in xampp forums and this is the answer that was given to me. I'll be quoting the answer as it was and give credit to the one who answere it.
XAMPP is very proud that it don't have to set any environment
variables or registry values.
What you want to do is not possible with XAMPP portable without
mapping to a specific Drive letter. All configurations in xampp
portable have relative paths, so if you want to use cli from a
different drive letter, php can be executed, but all extensions of
them throw errors.
I would install the full version of XAMPP, map it to the current drive
letter with help of the setup_xampp.bat file and use the XAMPP control
panel Shell instead of default command line (advantage: The XAMPP
control panel shell sets local include paths to the needed XAMPP
folders).
Works for me (i can even use pear, git, composer, and other cli
scripts with the Xampp Shell if correct integrated).
best wishes, Altrea

Open your php.ini file, replace all relative paths to absolute paths. Eg: \xampp\ to C:\xampp\
I'm new to working in a WAMP environment, in this case I'm using Easyphp, and I can't find how to execute php commands (like a simple php -v), like I would do for example when connecting to a server with SSH.
I have Easyphp installed, apache and mysql servers are on, and I created a virtual host using the module in the same folder where I'm trying to execute the php command (using the cmd tool in windows).
Is there any other way to do this? Is there a "console" just for that? Any help would be appreciated!
EDIT
OK maybe I should give a specific example of what I'm trying to do in case I didn't explain myself very well. I'm trying to follow this guide to getting started with Zend Framework, and in the very first step after downloading the files, it asks to "type" 2 commands:
php composer.phar self-update
php composer.phar install
Where do I exactly "type" those commands?
In windows you need to set up your path environment variable (if it hasn't already been done by the installer) so that it points to the correct location for the PHP executables. Refer to the documentation for EasyPHP to see if/how you need to do this.
Then, open a dos window, and cd into the directory for your project. Then you should be able to run the commands as shown.
I'm new to Zend Framework and i'm trying to do some tests on my local server. I use xampp on a Windows 7 pc.
So i downloaded the zend package who comes with a command line tool to setting up projects. Copied the folder with zf.sh on the hard-drive on the location C:\Program Files (x86)\ZendFrameworkCli\bin, than updated the system variables to make it work.
When i type in the command line "zf show version" i get an error by "php.exe". I guess this happens becouse php and apache are not installed on the OS but runs under xampp server.
So, there's any way to make it work with xampp? Thanx in advance.
You need to had the php executable path to you PATH variable. You can do this with the system icon in your configuration panel. You can also use a nice utility : RedmondPath ( http://sites.google.com/site/redmondlab/path)
After that, launch a command prompt and type php -v to make sure that all is correct.
