    Hello all,

    can I run IIS 7 and Apache on Vista Ultimate at the time ?

    As I plan to learn using Dreamweaver (with MySQL and Apache - at least in the guideing book) and Expression web (with MS SQL Server and IIS 7 of Vista) I would like to have both installed.

    Does that work or are there any known incompabilities ?


    thanks

    It should be possible yes. Although I've never tried it.

    @ Arie

    thanks a lot! I found now in a book that they better should not be running at the same time !?

    I have started to put the Apache into a virtual PC - but that creates new "problems" or at least more things to take care of. I have not been all the way through yet.

    Why not?

    Yea, they are both Web server & do the same thing, so you may not want to have them serving the same pages. But many people use 2 servers to serve different content.

    ok,

    would you then use different ports for the IIS and Apache (e.g. 80 and 81) ?

    I may just give it a try, although I have not done this before (and no experience with setting ports).
    I just did not want to ruin my system, but the Apache and MySQL should easily be deinstalled without hurting the ISS and MSSQL!? What do you think ?

    Yes, they'd need to 'bind' to separate ports, they won't start up otherwise.

    I can't help you further, as I've never run those (never run windows web servers).
