Hi everyone, I'm currently creating a new software package which should replace the current Windows installer of eZ publish for people who don't want to install Apache and MySQL. It will be great to do development or even to use it as a server package for small sites. The MySQL "problem" is solved by using sqlite which works really, really nice. (See my code under "Contributions".) For the webserver, I started using Nanoweb (http://nanoweb.si.kz/) which is great because then all you need is PHP and you have a full installation of eZ publish (I still love that concept). But the downside is that Nanoweb is terribly slow under Windows. I've switched to Abyssweb (http://www.aprelium.com/abyssws/) which is quite nice, but it still is more than I need. I tried "Tinyweb" (http://www.ritlabs.com/en/products/tinyweb/), but I can't figure out how to make it work with PHP. Does anybody have any suggestions for a very small (< 800KB) and fast webserver that can run PHP (as CGI)? It should just be an executable and not need any installation. I hope I can complete it this week. I will publish it then for everyone to play with. At the moment, my Windows installation package including everything is smaller than the pure zip file of eZpublish. :-) If anyone wants to help with this, just leave a comment. Kai
