I have created a website in windows that uses mysql and PHP. I need to put this website on a USB stick. My problem is that I can not find a server that is cross platform. I need the database to be read by a Mac, Linux or windows machine.
Do you have any suggestions???
XAMPP (http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html) has a Windows, Linux & Mac version. You could put each version on the USB stick and then just start the right one depending on the OS.
If I use xamp, can the same database be read by all 3 systems? How would you go about doing that?
XAMPP has MySQL compiled for all 3 platforms. I don’t know if MySQL on different platforms will use the exact same format, would of thought so but not sure.
If you use a SQLite DB it should work no problem and then you would only need PHP and Apache to run on each platform.
