Basically can you install php, mysql, apache? | |||||

I'm still pretty new to the PPC world, but I'm almost completely certain that it is not possibe using current software -- at least not that I've heard about. Technically speaking it would be plausible to create ports of MySQL for Windows Mobile since you can just compile progs for PPC and run them, and I know at least for MySQL and a webserver you can run these things fine on a system like PPC because I work on developing an embedded system with embedded Linux and we have a webserver and MySQL on there and that system is a lot less powerful than the x51v I have.
Still, I don't really see the point. | |||||

Just wondering because I create some small php/mysql applications and it'd be nice if I could also create&test them on my soon to arrive x51v, instead of my laptop or desktop.

Well I'd imagine that development of anything on x51v would be very difficult given that it is very hard to input text. Also despite the specs, the PPC isn't very fast it seems. I saw pocket IE good enough that it is like desktop browsing but after getting the PDA in my hand I've discovered that everything is not for the best. The slow speed gets to me, so basically a lot of the features are good only if I need them rather than wanting them. Usually I can walk to a computer and do what I want faster than trying to get a good WiFi signal for my PDA and then trying to navigate to do stuff.
Anyway, I apologize, it is not the purpose to question your motive but to answer your question, and as far as I know it is not available today but technically it could be feasible. A lot of the servers like MySQL and such are written in very portable C code. However the effort involved in writing PPC ports of even very-portable server software is probably not worth it for any one person. | |||||

Thanks Gillius. I'll stick with my laptop and desktop. I didn't order my x51v for this purpose anyway, just thought about it and figured I'd get a response from someone more knowledgeable than myself regarding this topic when it relates to a ppc.
Thanks for the response and the info ![]() | |||||

Using the .NET CF you can easily write a webserver. As for php support, I can't imagine it being easy...but it's not impossible. You have the source code, it should be easy to port it.
Why one would want to though is beyond me... | |||||
