After trying unsuccessfully to test run PHP scripts in Eclipse-PDT, I figured I need to download XAMPP.

Problem is, I run 64-bit Windows 7, 64 bit everything, but XAMPP is only available in 32bits download for Windows 7.

Does anyone know where I can download a 64 bit XAMPP for Windows 7?

You can debug 32bit php with 64bit eclipse. They communicate via xml protocol.

Hi and thanks.

I want to run the .php scripts on Windows7 localhost, not just debug it. It is disappointing that Eclipse Mars PDT does not have an integrated runtime environment for .php

I knew I could do that using XAMPP but I wanted to try out Eclipse PDT.

I've found a n XAMPP 64-bit download:
https://sourceforge.net/directory/os:windows/?q=xampp%2064%20bit

PDT cannot be bundled with PHP runtimes due license problems.

You off course can use php from xamp, or any other, for example from here: http://windows.php.net/download/

Next register php.exe in eclipse preferences, if you want be able to run CLI scripts.

For standard (web), you need apache/nginx or just buit-in php web server. Just run php.exe - S 127.0.0:8080 -t page_dir Wink
