You don't _have to_ install either Apache or IIS to use the developer edition of CF. &nbsp;It already comes with a built-in web server. &nbsp;However, if you choose to, you can install Apache and use it instead of the built in web server. &nbsp;The same goes for IIS.

I've been a University student in Web Design &amp;&nbsp;Development for 3 years and my PC still does not manage to run MySQL along with PHP and neither does it run ColdFusion. The whole situation is a bit sad so I'm hoping to ditch PHP and MySQL because its nasty and get ColdFusion working.<br />
<br />
I get this...<br />
<br />
Using Apache binary {0} <br />
<br />
on the &quot;Add Web Server Configuration&quot; which I'm assuming I need to do to get ColdFusion working?! Anyone know what I need to do to Apache to get this to work?

A web server refers to the software that helps to deliver web content that can be accessed either through the Internet or through an intranet. The primary function of a web server is to store, process and deliver web pages to clients. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling email, FTP, etc.
