Yes, If portability is a requirement, then it does become a problem. The %UniConPath% is designed to use the top level of the UniformServer folder and not any higher since the accessibility of the code is always below that level. If you have a program which is running at a higher level than UniformServer, I would recommend using that to fetch the %UniConPath% from the env variables, but that would be available only when UniController is running. I went through the Chipster.Org project and I think what you are doing is good. DM me separately, I can see how I can help.

If you are looking to upgrade UniformServer without losing any of your pages, I would suggest using the folder outside the UniformServer setup location. This can be done by using the Apache -> Change Apache Root folders function where you can point the server to use a folder outside the UniServer folder structure. The only downside of this is that you will break portability, and the change needs to be done whenever you upgrade UniServer, but you will not lose your files or your data with an accidental overwrite to the www or the ssl folders. Windows unfortunately does not seem to support .. paths to move across directories. You could also use the home/us_config.ini in the ENV_PATHS section to set up absolute paths or relative paths, but if you need portability, it would need to be inside the UniServer folder structure.

I am assuming when you say that Unicontroller is automatically opening Palemoon it is opening the startup UniformServer splash pages. You can turn this function off from the UniController by selecting Apache->StartupPages-> Display Page 1 & 2 and uncheck them. Or if you want another page to open you can choose those as well. Unchecking those options will prevent UniController opening the Splash pages when Apache is started. UniController looks for Palemoon in the default location in the core/palemoon folder if you move it out of that location, it is like it is not there, so UniController will default to the computer's default browser. There are 2 options here. Set up your default browser to use the proxy file (or) Set up Palemoon as your default browser. However, I am under the impression that by stopping the default page from opening would mitigate the issue of the PhpMyAdmin opening in the default browser since you no longer need to move palemoon to another location.

The Uniform Server team is glad to announce a minor update to Uniform Server Zero XIV. This update was made possible by our new contributor @sbourdon who has come forward to contribute his valuable time to this project. This version of UniformServer Zero XIV v14.0.4 can be found ON SourceForge at https://sourceforge.net/projects/miniserver/ The UniformServer is now open source, the Controller Code is now published on github at https://github.com/iamola/uniserver The following modules that have been updated: Core Apache v2.4.53 from Apache v2.4.46 PHP Added PHP v8.1.4 PHP v8.0.17 from v8.0.3 PHP v7.4.28 from PHP v7.4.16 PHP v7.3.33 from PHP v7.3.27 Databases Updated to MySQL v8.0.28 Database Administration phpMyAdmin 5.1.3 from phpMyAdmin 5.1.0 Adminer 4.8.1 from Adminer 4.7.8 The latest modules of Uniform Server are at https://sourceforge.net/projects/miniserver/files/Uniform Server ZeroXIV/ZeroXIV Modules/ Help Needed I would like to request for the following help from the community. If you find any bugs, please feel free to either post on the forum or raise an issue on github so we can track and fix them. If you can fix the bug, please fork the github repo and issue a pull request.

The Uniform Server Core Controller does not need the VC runtimes. However, the builds for both Apache as well as PHP rely on them and are built using the VC runtimes as dependencies. Hence the requirement for the users who use Apache and PHP will also need the VC runtimes.

PHP 5.3 is old and is no longer supported by Uniform Server. If you would like to use older versions of PHP you can use older versions of UniformServer.

UniformServer is Modular, which means although the base version comes along with the latest modules, you can customise and add in additional modules as well. For e.g, to get PHP7 versions you can download and install the the modules from https://sourceforge.net/projects/miniserver/files/Uniform Server ZeroXIV/ZeroXIV Modules/ Just download the ones you want, and unzip (self extractable archive) then into the install folder. Re-run UniformServer and you should see the modules activated.

Thanks for pointing it out. I have uploaded a PHP 7.4.16_k to fix this problem. For an easy fix. Open the core\apache2\conf\extra_us\php74.conf folder and change the 65 to 66 on the following lines. LoadFile ${US_ROOTF}/core/php74/icudt65.dll LoadFile ${US_ROOTF}/core/php74/icuin65.dll LoadFile ${US_ROOTF}/core/php74/icuio65.dll LoadFile ${US_ROOTF}/core/php74/icuuc65.dll to LoadFile ${US_ROOTF}/core/php74/icudt66.dll LoadFile ${US_ROOTF}/core/php74/icuin66.dll LoadFile ${US_ROOTF}/core/php74/icuio66.dll LoadFile ${US_ROOTF}/core/php74/icuuc66.dll Restart Apache and it should now work. Best Regards, Sudeep.

For PHP 4, I think you probably would be better of setting up your own versions of Apache and PHP. You can the required version in the old PHP archives at https://www.php.net/releases/

I don't have a 32 bit machine to test it out on.. However, if you would like I am willing to take some time to check it out on your system and see how I can get you up and running.. DM me...

I see the problem that you have messaged about.. However, I am not very good at Perl. Please DM me with your contact details. I can probably work with you to help figure out and fix the problem that you are facing.

I have updated UniformServer to v14.0.3 which has PHP v8.0.3. All the best.

In order to update without losing data you need to first back up your data. This can be done within UniformServer from MySQL-> Database backup and restore function.. When you backup the data it creates an SQL file in the db_backup_restore folder. Since you have the data you can safely upgrade the database. Once done, restore the data to the updated database.

@Bannockburn Not yet.. Right now more focused on getting the version with PHP8 into the wild. Will take up the Let's Encrypt SSL integration after that. I know it has been a long pending item on my radar. Just not getting the time to focus on the development aspect of things. Thank you for your patience.

Yes.. It is in process.. Will be releasing it soon.

Ok.. This has been something that I have been thinking about implementing into UniformServer for some time now. I just have not time to do the research work to implement it, after I took over the UniformServer maintenance. Can you please DM me so that we can work together and implement the Let's Encrypt SSL certs into UniformServer. Thanks

If you copied the files over from the php website then there are a few more updates needed to be made. Rename the ext directory to extensions Copy over the php-developement.ini, php-production.ini and php-test.ini files from the old installation to the new one. These 2 changes should get you running, if not, post the problem that you have and I can try and help.

Adminer does not come with the default version of UniformServer. PhpMyAdmin does.. You can remove PhpMyAdmin by deleting the us_opt1 folder in the home directory without any adverse affects.

Are you looking for help with a specific UniformServer plugin.. If so, please specify which one. Thanks.

Please check if you have installed the VC_Runtimes for Uniform Server from https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads Select: vc_redist.x86.exe You need the 32 bit runtimes for UniformServer.

This forum is for support of UniformServer only. If you are requesting information whcih is not related to UniformServer, then please post in that specific sites blog. Thanks.

Actually... if MySQL window opens and you close it, you are effectively shutting down the MySQL server. This was built into MySQL 8. If MySQL does not load this would change back to red. But I get what you are saying.. I am a little tight on development time right now. So will be taking inputs at this time and look into implementing into the next version.

Yes... it does that doesn't it.. With the launch of MySQL8, the Console window appears even when we tell it not to via launch code. So we are detecting the launch and then hiding the window. However, if it takes more than 5 seconds to launch which happens during the first run as it needs to set up the required data files, the window does not get hidden. Will look for a way to prevent that happening as well. Thanks for bringing it to our notice. Best Regards,

Dear Reham, Thanks for using Uniformserver. I am little bit tied up at the moment.. Will do it soon. Best Regards,
