queXS for Windows is simply the queXS package with all the required executable files and configuration to run “out of the box”. This functionality is provided by the XAMPP package. I have simply packaged queXS using XAMPP, and added ADOdb
It may be useful for testing and temporary use – but please note that XAMPP is not necessarily secure, and may need to be modified for secure use.
Download the queXS for Windows package from SourceForge
Execute the file to extract it to a root directory (such as c:\ ) or a usb stick root directory (eg e:\ ) - It is a 7zip compressed self executable file
Please note you will need at least 250Mb free
Go to the directory: xampplite
Execute the file “mysql_start.bat”
Execute the file “apache_start.bat”
Go to: http://localhost/forbidden/quexs/admin/ in your browser
Note you will need to use the default credentials of:
Username: adam
Password: adam
Follow the queXS administration documentation here: http://quexs.sourceforge.net/documentation/administer.xhtml
Run queXS as a user by browsing to: http://localhost/forbidden/quexs/
Execute the file “apache_stop.bat”
Execute the file “mysql_stop.bat”
Edit the file xampplite\htdocs\forbidden\.htpasswd and add usernames and passwords in the format username:password
Make sure to let queXS know about the new users by going to: http://localhost/forbidden/quexs/admin/ and updating the user list
