Uniform Server 5.6-Nano.

Local menu introduction

This menu provides short cuts to Apache syntax check and switching PHP ini files. It also opens the move servers window.

Menu Item Description
  • Apache Syntax check

Runs Apache syntax check. This allows you to quickly pick up any typos.

  • PHP switch to production
  • PHP switch to development

These menu items allow you to switch the PHP ini configuration file to either development or production.

Note: For the new file to take effect you must restart Apache server.

Move servers is a powerful feature of Uniform Server it allows you to run more than one server on the same PC. It is not referring to a physical location! Move means you are moving the server to different ports, changing the executable and service names.

In reality it reconfigures a server so it does not clash with any existing ones.

Move servers

  • Nag After clicking on menu item move servers you will see this nag pop-up. It gives you an opportunity to back out.
  • If you move the servers and want to revert back that is a manual task and is time consuming.
  • The script also gives you an opportunity to back out at the last user input.

Summary

Moving the servers allows you to run individual applications on their own server. Combine this with the USB plugin and you have a fully independent application that you can run from a USB memory stick. For example run your own personal MediaWiki on a stick.
