I have machine on which I lack admin privileges. I was not able to install xampp server on it. So I tried portable version of xampp. But I was getting error while starting Apache server and MySQL. The log file is not getting created.

Also many tutorials online use NetBeans which is also I am not able to install due lack of admin privileges.

I have postgres and apache tomcat working on my machine, which I used for Java Spring development. I also have eclipse installed on my machine. So I was thinking if I can manually configure eclipse, postgres, tomcat to develop php without installing xampp or netbeans.

Is it possible? If yes how do I do it? Is there any tutorial / link / webpage explaining the same?

  2. if you use php framework like laravel, cakephp etc.
    Those have own development server to run application.
    and for the database you can use sqlite database.
    that not require xampp server
