I have a Windows Server 2003 and asp.net website running on localhost. I have to install php and mysql, but php installation doesn’t work for whatever reason. I was wondering if I could install package such as xampp on windows server to save time and hassle installing in manually (I could not find a tutorial for this). I was wondering though, if it is safe, i.e. what will happen if I go to http://localhost/ – will I get the php or asp website? In general, is it safe to install xampp on windows server 2003? All advice greatly appreciated.

Yeah, it’s safe to install both. What you do is bind one to one port and the other to another port, so IIS is port 80 and Apache is port 81 or whatever, http://localhost/ would go to IIS and http://localhost:81/ would go to apache.
