Right now am using WAMP server to deploy my program . Tell me another php server which will be more effective than wamp ?
php is run on appache server5 and xampp and wampp are the package which provides appache + MySQL + FTP facility so its not you use wampp or xampp wampp stands for window appache mysql programing parser xampp stands for extended appache mysql programing parser(which supported various platform )
ermmm i use easyPhp for sometime now and its G00D juz for the Windows environment though [of course linux's * better]
I would suggest EasyPHP.. Reasons :- 1. Its OPENSOURCE 2. Its Bug Free 3. Its easy to install 4. It works without a hastle!
Lighthttpd is better but its fairly newer and not used as much. Apache is more used, and has more tuts on its which give it the edge. Lighthttpd is slightly faster then Apache is though. I haven't benchmarked either on speed, processing speed, memory usage etc... but since Apache is the most used on web hosts and business servers it gets my vote and I use it over Lighthttpd all the time.
