13.  XAMPP is an easy to install Apache
distribution containing MySQL, PHP and Perl.
 XAMPP is free of charge.
 http://www.apachefriends.org

14. 1. Unzip the package in an empty directory and upload everything.
2. Open wp-admin/install.php in your browser. It will take you through the
process to set up a wp-config.php file with your database connection details.
3. Once the configuration file is set up, the installer will set up the tables needed
for your blog. If there is an error, double check your wp-config.php file, and try
again. If it fails again, please go to the support forums with as much data as
you can gather.
4. If you did not enter a password, note the password given to you. If you did not
provide a username, it will be admin.
5. The installer should then send you to the login page. Sign in with the username
and password you chose during the installation. If a password was generated
for you, you can then click on 'Profile' to change the password.
