Windows 10 is the only release Acquia's BLT. But there are still many people who use Windows 7 and 8, and most of these people don't have control over what version of Windows they use. Drupal VM has supported Windows 7, 8, and 10 since I started building it a few years ago (at that time I was still running Windows 7), and using a little finesse, you can actually get an entire modern BLT-based Drupal 8 project running on Windows 7 or 8, as long as you do all the right things, as will be demonstrated in this blog post.
Note that this setup is not recommended—you should try as hard as you can to either upgrade to Windows 10, or switch to Linux or macOS for your development workstation, as setup and debugging are much easier on a more modern OS. However, if you're a sucker for pain, have at it!
The process below is akin to the: It required the crew—in particular the command module pilot, Swigert—to perform the entire power-up procedure in the blind. If he made a mistake, by the time the instrumentation was turned on and the error was detected, it could be too late to fix. But, as a good flight controller should, Aaron was confident his sequence was the right thing to do. Following the instructions below, you'll be akin to Swigert: there are a number of things you have to get working correctly (in the right sequence) before BLT and Drupal VM can work together in Windows 7 or Windows 8. And once you have your environment set up, you should do everything besides editing source files and running Git commands inside the VM (and, if you want, you can actually do everything inside the VM. For more on why this is the case, please read my earlier post:. Here's a video overview of the entire process (see the detailed instructions below the video).
Upgrade PowerShell Windows 7 ships with a very old version of PowerShell (2.0) which is incompatible with Vagrant, and causes vagrant up to hang. To work around this problem, you will need to upgrade to PowerShell 4.0: • Visit the guide. • Download the.msu file appropriate for your system (most likely Windows6.1-KB2819745-x64-MultiPkg.msu). • Open the downloaded installer.
• Run through the install wizard. • Restart your computer when the installation completes. • Open Powershell and enter the command $PSVersionTable.PSVersion to verify you're running major version 4 or later. Install XAMPP (for PHP) XAMPP will be used for it's PHP installation, but it won't be used for actually running the site; it's just an easy way to get PHP installed and accessible on your Windows computer.
• (PHP 5.6.x version). • Run the XAMPP installer. Gothic 1 Pl Torent there.
• XAMPP might warn that UAC is enabled; ignore this warning, you don't need to bypass UAC to just run PHP. • On the 'Select Components' screen, only choose 'Apache', 'PHP', and 'Fake Sendmail' (you don't need to install any of the other components).
• Install in the C: xampp directory. • Uncheck the Bitnami checkbox. • When prompted, allow access to the Apache HTTP server included with XAMPP. • Uncheck the 'Start the control panel when finished' checkbox and Finish the installation. • Verify that PHP is installed correctly: • Open Powershell.
I have a fresh Windows 10 64-bit install, which I'm attempting to set up for development. I have downloaded and installed cmder, then rebooted downloaded and.
• Run the command: C: xampp php php.exe -v Note: If you have PHP installed and working through some other mechanism, that's okay too. The key is we need a PHP executable that can later be run through the CLI.
