For nearly 2 years, we have been running a custom PHP application on Windows server 2012R2 connecting to a SQLServer database with no problems (except my programming mistakes of course). I personally prefer Linux, but that is a personal preference. At work, we are a Windows shop so Windows is what I use and so far, no problems.

Hello all, As the subject implies, what experience do you guys have running PHP on Windows as oppose to that on linux? I've heard different things; some say Windows is better, while others say that they can't get the newest versions of PHP working on Windows because the nice installer's disappeared, hence causing many more mistake avenues. I'm running several community sites(along with a few business ones) with a friend of mine, and he won't have mission critical PHP applications running on Windows stating "catastrophic" things happening. The problem? He can't state any examples. Bias, do you think? _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list Blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org https://lists.hodgsonfamily.org/listinfo/blind-sysadmins
