[Archived] Drupal 7 (or 6) - Install and Setup Acquia Dev Desktop (Formerly DAMP
) on your Windows PC or MAC - Video with outline
Last updated July 18, 2016. Created on August 12, 2011.
Edited by Christopher James Francis Rodgers, hkovacs, sfbob, spineless. Log in t
o edit this page.
Please Note: This page is outdated. It was for 'Acquia Dev Desktop' (version 1).
The brief drupal.org page for the current version of Acquia Dev Desktop is at:
'Acquia Dev Desktop' (version 2) Drupal Stack Installer: All-In-One Drupal 7, an
d 8 Local Installation on your Windows, or MAC Computer - Unlimited Sites.
The rest of this page is Invalid/ Outdated / Deprecated
Acquia Dev Desktop (Formerly DAMP), also known as (aka) the "Acquia Drupal Stack
Installer", includes everything you need to install Drupal on your Windows PC o
r MAC computer. Acquia Dev Desktop is available for both Drupal 7 (D7) and Drupa
l 6 (D6).
For Linux, maybe try: "Local multi-site installation of Drupal 7 on Linux", thou
gh I admit, I have No idea.
Since Acquia's Chief Technical Officer is Dries Buytaert, who created Drupal bac
k in 2000, I highly recommend Acquia Dev Desktop as a way of running Drupal on y
our PC or MAC computer.
Acquia Dev Desktop is Free (*1), and includes these four parts: (Formerly DAMP)
Drupal
Apache,
MySQL
PHP.
Drupal: Acquia Dev Desktop initially installs the "Acquia Drupal" version of Dru
pal, known as a Drupal distribution (Distro). But later you will be able to down
load and install any number of additional sites, including Drupal "Core", and "D
istros" which are pre-built installation profiles. Or you can install additional

3. Download the 'Acquia Dev Desktop' installation file.
Acquia Dev Desktop is the Acquia Drupal Stack Installer that includes everything
you need to install Drupal 7 (or D6) on your Computer: Drupal, Apache, MySQL, a
nd PHP.
Go to the Acquia 'Downloads' page: http://acquia.com/downloads (This link opens
in a new tab/window)
Find the heading Acquia Dev Desktop.
See the Drupal version you desire (Drupal 7, or Drupal 6).
Note that MAC might be the default choice, or Windows might be the default choic
e, today. But, you can choose between the Windows or MAC installers by clicking
the downward-pointing arrow for either the D7 or D6 versions.
After you have either the MAC or Windows option set, click the Big Orange Button
"Download". The installation file should immediately begin to download to your
computer.
You might be able to optionally "Run" the installation file, without downloading
it, but I never do. I always temporarily save installation files on my desktop.
That way, if I have to interrupt an installation, I do not have to return to th
e website to re-acquire the link for the installation file's download.
Back to Contents
original sample 'Acquia Drupal' site installation. Also, do not change the name
of any parent folder above this file set on your computer. If you do, the Dev De
sktop stack will no longer start or run on your computer.
In other words: If in the future you move this original Acquia Drupal site's fol
ders and files, or in anyway change the computer systems's path to these files,
for example, by changing the Acquia Drupal site's parent folder-name, or by chan
ging the name of any other higher-level folder that contains the Acquia Drupal s
ite's parent folder, then the 'Acquia Dev Desktop' program will no longer run. I
t will throw the error, "Sites Directory not found: C:\...".
To my knowledge, the only way I know to correct that error is by un-doing any re
-naming or moving you have done; and there-by correcting the original 'Acquia Dr
upal' site's path/location. (For example: located by default on Windows XP at C:
\Documents and Settings\USER-ACCOUNT-NAME\sites\acquia-drupal; or my preferred l
ocation at C:\_sites\original_dev_desktop_acquia_drupal)
(Granted: Reinstalling 'Acquia Dev Desktop' would also get it working again, but
I wonder what 'database' and site 'folder/file sets' would loose connectivity.
??)
Click Next >.
Port: You can leave the defaults.
"Apache web server port:" The default of "8082" will result in having your site'
s address in your browser's address-bar in the form of "http://your-site-name:80
82" for all Drupal sites you will run locally on your computer.
In the case of Windows only (Thomas Geller reported that this is not the case wi
th MAC): If you change the number from "8082" to "80", the address in your brows
er's address-bar will be in the form of "http://your-site-name" (without the ":8
082"). Otherwise, there will be no noticeable difference.
"MySQL database port:" - I leave the default: 33066
Click Next >.
Drupal settings:
These settings are only for the initial "Acquia Drupal" sample site installation
, but you must now enter a Username, Password (twice), and E-mail address.
These settings have No-bearing on additional Drupal sites you can install later,
including any number of additional "Acquia Drupal", "Drupal Core", or, similarl
y to Acquia Drupal, other packaged Drupal installation profiles known as "Distro
"s.
Whether or not you intend to use the initial sample "Acquia Drupal" installation
site later, in order for you to proceed through the Acquia Dev Desktop installa
tion process, you must now enter a Username, Password (twice), and E-mail addres
s (for "Updates" notifications, etc.) for the sample Acquia Drupal site.
With Drupal 7, (and I can only assume 'with Drupal 6' as well,) each of the foll
owing "Drupal Settings" can be changed later at this sample site.
Complete all of the field-boxes.
Site name: Leave as default.
The default is "My Acquia Drupal Site". This is the site name as it will appear
in the 'Header' of every page on this Acquia Drupal sample site.
Username:
This will be the username for the top-level administrator (known to the Drupal s
ystem as "user/1"), but only for the initial Acquia Drupal sample site as it is
being administered as normal from a browser.
There are no key-board character limitations on the username (none that I am awa
re of), but while I develop a site, my username is short, contains no blank-spac
es, is easy to type, and is easy to remember. (Eg. "zz3")
Password (& Confirm password)
This will be the password for the username above, but only for the initial Acqui
a Drupal sample site as it is being administered as normal from a browser.
E-mail:
If you do Not intend to use the sample Acquia Drupal installation site later, I re
commend that for your E-mail address you enter: void@sample.com to avoid the pos
sibility of your getting emails notifying you of available updates for this site
-- a site that you do Not use (Note: sample.com is a world-wide designated Dead
site).
Click Next >.
Review your information:
Click Next >. (..unless you want to change something you see on this page; in wh
ich case, click the button "< Back".
Ready to install:
Click Next >.
The installation can take several minutes; at least.
I did address one pop-up window that asked me if I wanted to "un-block" this app
lication from my Windows XP firewall; and I did click the button "un-block" (or
similar).
Do not close, and do not worry about any black-screen command prompt windows. As
for example, do not close, and do not do anything to the window "c:\windows\sys
tem32\cmd.exe".
All extra windows eventually disappear on their own, leaving only the Acquia Dev
Desktop installation window. So,... Eventually...
Congratulations, you're done!:
Leave the default check-mark for "Launch the Acquia Drupal control panel to star
t the stack and access your new Drupal web site!", and the Acquia Dev Desktop Co
ntrol Panel, the main program window, will appear after you...
Click Finish.
The "Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel" window should now appear.
After you have installed Acquia Dev Desktop, you will no longer need the install
er file
...expect that you might want to store it somewhere else for possible future use
, as, for example, to reinstall the program; or possibly you might want to refer
back to the Acquia Dev Desktop installer file to see what version you used to i
nstall the program.
I assume that Drupal will alert me (via my core module 'Update manager') if and
when the 'Acquia Drupal' distro has a new version out.
However, as to new versions of 'Acquia Dev Desktop', I wonder how best to keep t
rack of possible new releases. ??

5. 'Acquia Dev Desktop' must always be running; Start 'Acquia Dev Desktop'.
To view, or work on, your computer's Drupal sites, the 'Acquia Dev Desktop Contr
ol Panel' window must be left running. You can 'minimize' it, but do not 'close'
it.
The 'Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel' window will have been running immediately
after you installed Acquia Dev Desktop as described above.
However, if you close the 'Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel' window, or if you r
estart your computer, you will need to restart 'Acquia Dev Desktop'.
No Windows desktop icons (nor Windows quick-launch icons) were created when the
'Acquia Dev Desktop' was installed. So, to start the 'Acquia Dev Desktop', and d
isplay the 'Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel' window,...
Starting 'Acquia Dev Desktop':
AcquiaDevDesktopControlPanel.exe
Windows XP:
"Start" > "All Programs" > "Acquia Dev Desktop" > "Control Panel"
The file to start Acquia Dev Desktop's Control Panel is located at...
C:\Program Files\acquia-drupal\AcquiaDevDesktopControlPanel\AcquiaDevDesktopCont
rolPanel.exe
Windows Vista, Windows Seven and Eight:
"Start" > "Programs" > ???
The file to start Acquia Dev Desktop's Control Panel is located at: (?? Please c
orrect if wrong)
C:\Program Files (x86)\acquia-drupal\AcquiaDevDesktopControlPanel\AcquiaDevDeskt
opControlPanel.exe
MAC:
"Finder" > "Applications" > "acquia-drupal" > "acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel"
>
The file to start Acquia Dev Desktop's Control Panel is located at...
/Application/acquia-drupal/Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel
At the 'Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel' window, the two circles to the right o
f...
Apache Web Server
MySQL Database Server
...should both be GREEN. (Not gray.)
If both circles are not green, click the right-hand column's top button "Start A
cquia Drupal Stack".

6. Using the initial, sample 'Acquia Drupal' site.
When you installed Acquia Dev Desktop, you automatically installed an 'Acquia Dr
upal' version of Drupal. 'Acquia Drupal' is a packaged Drupal installation known
as a "Drupal Distro" (Distro means "Distribution") that contains not only the "
Drupal Core" set of site folders/files, and the standard Core modules, but also
additional "Contrib Modules" that compliment each other.
"Acquia Drupal" is known within Acquia Dev Desktop under the name "localhost".
Unlike every other Drupal site you might create, the Acquia Drupal site requires
absolutely no additional installation after you have installed Acquia Dev Deskt
op. It is ready to go.
Access the sample Acquia Drupal site.
Open the "Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel".
The two circles to the right of...
Apache Web Server
MySQL Database Server
...should both be GREEN. (Not gray.)
If both circles are not green, click the right-hand column's top button "Start A
cquia Drupal Stack".
localhost: Set "localhost" as the name in the field-box in the right-hand column
just under the button "Go to my site". (If it is not already.)
If it is not already set to "localhost", click the downward-pointing-arrow to th
e right of that field-box, and then click "localhost".
Click "Go to my site".
Acquia Drupal's bizarre addon module location
"Acquia Drupal" contains all of the Drupal Core folders/files, but as with all o
ther Drupal Distros (installation profiles), Acquia Drupal also includes additio
nal Modules. Acquia Drupal presently installs seven additional Modules; but puts
them in a most unusual location.
Typically addon modules are installed in [your-drupal-root]/sites/all/modules, a
nd this is in fact the location where future addon modules will be installed if
you install them using the D7 automated installation process that only requires
you to input the modules's download location URL.
Strange to me is the fact that Acquia Drupal's seven additional-to-core modules
are located at [your-drupal-root]/profiles/acquia/modules; which is to say that
they are Not installed in the normal standard recommended location that addon mo
dules are generally installed after your site is up and running.
Implied by this is that, for example, when it comes time to update the Drupal 7
core, for example from D7.7 to D7.8, you will have to download the Acquia Drupal
distro for D7.8 from Acquia; and you will not be able to simply use the new D7.
8 version of the Core from drupal.org.
The Acquia Drupal installation profile's addon Modules List - 2011.08.24.
I have not used Acquia Drupal, and so I know little about it.
The following may or may not be of value to you.
"Acquia Drupal" installs seven additional-to-core Modules (note that some of the
Modules per-se actually contain multiple modules within each, and this is commo
n with many if not most of the modules that you will later install).

Newer Acquia Drupal distros.
In the event that a new Acquia Drupal distro release becomes available in the fu
ture, you will be able to "Import" the new version of the "Acquia Drupal" instal
lation profile.
Un-compress the Core *.tar.gx or *.zip file using your operating system's archiv
e utility program, or other archive utility program you may have installed. (Or
download, and install a free archive utility program. See below: Note Aside: Fre
eware Recommendations.)
As I understand it, if you are using MAC, Windows Vista, or Windows 7, then you
need only click (double-click) the *.tar.gx or *.zip file (or whatever type of a
rchived file you may have gotten a Distro in) to begin the process for un-compre
ssing the compressed-archive file into the same folder in which it resides.
If clicking the archive file simply opens up a window that shows you its content
s, then close that window.
In the case of my using Windows XP, and the archiving program WinRAR, clicking t
he *.tar.gz or *.zip file simply opens it for viewing, and does Not in fact de-c
ompress it. I have to RIGHT-Click the archive file, and in the drop-down menu th
at appears, I have to hover upon the WinRAR icon. Then an additional drop-down m
enus appears; and I have to click "Extract here" to de-compress the file.
If clicking the file initiates a window asking you what program you want to use
to access it-- because you are using Windows XP for example, and you do not have
a file archive utility installed-- See below: Note Aside: Freeware Recommendati
ons to find a free program (freeware) suitable for your operating system. Downlo
ad it and install it.
Although I use WinRAR, I do recommend "7-Zip" (Link opens in a new tab/window) a
s a FREE solution since I have heard good things about it for years. (Download t
he *.exe version for Windows)
The de-compression of the Core *.tar.gx or *.zip file will create a folder named
similarly to "Drupal-7.x".
And hopefully that newly created folder will have been placed precisely such tha
t if you navigate into it, you will see a folder named "includes" (among others)
located at C:\00\sites\Drupal-7.x\includes. If not, move the Drupal-7.x folder
that contains the folder "includes" into C:\00\sites (for example).
You can now delete the archive file that you downloaded if you like; or save it
for possible future use in case you get curious about what your site's files ori
ginally were; exactly.

12. Note Aside: Freeware Recommendations.
Google: 46 free.
For a very wide range of freeware recommendations, the very greatest website tha
t I know of, and that I have been using for the last eight-years, changed names
to something I can never remember. But I am not worried, because I just remember
"46 free".
The site was originally called "46 Best Freeware Programs", or something like th
at.
Now I find it everytime I want it by typing into Google, 46 free and I always ge
t back to it because it is at the top of Google's list.
The site is now at:
Gizmos Freeware Reviews - <www.techsupportalert.com> (Link opens in new tab/wind
Under the heading "Domain", and at the line "Server:" Change the name "localhost
" to a new name.
The name localhost is the name being used by the original default
le site installation.
Acquia Drupal
For simplicity, you can enter the same name that you used when you renamed the u
ncompressed Drupal-archive folder above.
See above for my Site folder name choice recommendations for a few clues as to w
hat characters you might want to use or avoid.
The "Subdomain:" line can be left blank as it is by default.
The "URL path:" line can be left blank as it is by default.
Note the line "Site URL". This is the address that will appear in your browser's
address bar when you are at your site's home page; and it is based on the name
you entered into the "Server" line just above.
You will Not have to remember this URL, Nor will you have to enter this URL into
your browser, since you can easily get to your site later via the "Acquia Dev D
esktop Control Panel".
Click the button "Import".
The import process takes a little time, and will eventually open your browser to
the final browser-based installation steps for your new Drupal site.
Back at the "Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel", the "Settings" window will still
be open. Close the "Settings" window by clicking "OK" or "Cancel".
You will need to finalize the installation of your new Drupal site using your br
owser. Follow the instructions that follow here.
Note that, if necessary, or if you just want to, you can now close your browser
window, or even restart your computer-- worry-free.

15. Browser-based final Drupal installation setup for your newly imported site.
The browser window that opened after the final step of "import"ing a new version
of Drupal into Acquia Dev Desktop (in the step just above) is the typical first
page you will see for every new Drupal site that you create.
The only exception to the following setup steps would be if you had created your
site using the "New" button at the Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel, and you ha
d therefore created a copy of the sample version of Acquia Drupal that shipped w
ith the Acquia Dev Desktop version that you originally downloaded and installed.
If the browser window that should have opened after the last step of "Import" ab
ove is closed for some reason, you can reopen your site to that page in your bro
wser by:
Start Acquia Dev Desktop (If it is not already running). See Acquia Dev Desktop
must always be running; Start Acquia Dev Desktop above for details.
Check that both Drupal Stack buttons are GREEN. If both circles are not green, c
lick the right-hand column's top button "Start Acquia Drupal Stack".
samp
In the right-column under the button "Go to my site", click the downward-pointin
g arrow to the right of the field-box.
Find and click the name of your site so that it displays in the field-box.
Click the button "Go to my site"
That should open your browser, and after it has, you can minimize the "Acquia De
v Desktop Control Panel" window. The Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel must remai
n running, however.
The final browser-based installation setup steps for your Drupal site.
If you are wondering, "Are we there yet?", then your thoughts mirror mine; and t
he answer is, "Yes. Close, anyway."
"Select an installation profile" page.
The first window "Select an installation profile" has only two radio-buttons. "S
tandard" (default), and "Minimal".
These two choices simply control which set of Core modules will be initially "En
abled" right now.
"Standard" does Not enable all of the core modules, and "Minimal" will simply no
t enable some of the modules that Standard otherwise would.
As with all modules in Drupal, you will later be able to enable or un-enable eac
h of them individually. So I recommend you...
Leave "Standard". Click the button "Save and continue".
"Choose Language" page:
Presently, the Drupal 7.25 Core installation has only one radio-button. "English
(built-in)".
Click the button "Save and contiune"; OR...
If you click "Learn how to install Drupal in other languages", you will be explo
ring territory I have not fully explored.
The page that loads if you do click that link, however, does have a link at its
bottom "Continue installation in English" that does the same thing as if you had
clicked "Save and contiune" on the former English page.
(Possibly; or Not) AJAX Error Page
Do not worry if you next briefly see a page with the words (or similar)...
The installation has encountered an error.
Please continue to the error page
An AJAX HTTP request terminated abnormally. Debugging information follows. Path:
http://test3334:8082/install.php?profile=standard&locale=en&id=1&op=do StatusTe
xt: ResponseText: ReadyState: 4
That AJAX error page is common, and it should quickly go away. You might even ha
ve missed it if you blinked.
"Configure site" page:
All of these items can be changed later if you desire. (The Red-asterisk indicat
alphabetic character. In other words, you can login using lower-case characters
even if your username employes upper-case characters.
"E-mail address"
Your Acquia Dev Desktop site is fully capable of sending out e-mails assuming yo
u are connected to the internet.
This is the e-mail address to which all notices to you will go.
Enter a valid e-mail address of yours since this is e-mail address that will be
used to send you your password if you forget it.
This e-mail address will also be helpful to you later as you test certain functi
onalities of your site.
"Password *"
Password characters are case-sensitive; which is to say that "a" is Not the same
as "A".
An 8-character password would take an average of approximately five-thousand yea
rs for someone to stumble upon if they were to hand type entries.
A Bot-program from Belize could do it quicker than that, but in all sincerity, y
ou should be in good shape if you always use at least 8-characters.
Do not you use your pet's name if you are inclined to talk about your pets in ch
at rooms.
Do not use any common word nor any name that corresponds to you directly.
"Confirm Password *": This entry must match the Password above in precise fashio
n including "case".
"Sever Settings"
The server settings can be changed by later clicking the administrative menu but
ton "Configuration" at the top of any of your site's pages; and then, under conf
iguration page's heading "Regional and language", clicking the link "Regional se
ttings".
"Default country"
I really do not know what this does. Sometimes I change it from its default of "
None" to "United States" just to see what might happen, but I have never noticed
any difference between the two.
"Default time zone"
Although Time is my mortal enemy, the time of day is irrelevant to me.
Actually, that statement is my way of distracting you from the fact that I do no
t know the far-reaching affects of this setting. Although I presume that this ti
me setting determines the time as I see it for everything on my site, I do Not k
now how this setting affects other potential users on my site when they are in d
ifferent time-zones.
"Update Notifications"
In the "Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel" window, the two circles to the right o
f "Apache Web Server" and "MySQL Database Server" should both be GREEN. (Not gra
y.) If both circles are not green, click the right-hand column's top button "Sta
rt Acquia Drupal Stack".
At the Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel window, in the right-hand column, set th
e site-name in the drop-down menu, and then click the button just above: "Go to
my site".

18. Deleting 'Acquia Dev Desktop' Sites.
Warning:
Regarding the original sample Acquia Drupal site installation that was created w
hen you installed Acquia Dev Desktop:
Acquia Dev Desktop will not allow you to 'edit' the server details, nor 'delete'
the original sample Acquia Drupal site installation known as "localhost".
Do Not delete or move the original Acquia Drupal site files and folders on your
computer that were first created when you installed Acquia Dev Desktop. If you d
o, Acquia Dev Desktop will not run. For more info, see above at: Do Not, in the
future, remove or move the files that comprise this original sample Acquia Drupal
site installation.
You can delete the "acquia_drupal" database, and Acquia Dev Desktop will still r
un, but why play with fire unnecessarily.
The database for the site you delete will be lost.
This site's "sites" folder, and all of its contents, will be deleted, so make a
copy of it if you want anything from it before you delete a site using Acquia De
v Desktop.
Using as an example a site that is presently listed in the Acquia Dev Desktop Co
ntrol Panel as "test-site-to-delete", the folder "test-site-to-delete" will be e
ntirely deleted from the following location on your computer:
C:\00-sites\my-new-drupal-site\sites\test-site-to-delete
That includes, but by no means is limited to, the settings.php file.
How To Delete Drupal Sites from Acquia Dev Desktop.
Start 'Acquia Dev Desktop' if it is not already running. See above: Acquia Dev D
esktop must always be running; Start Acquia Dev Desktop for details.
In the 'Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel' window, the two circles to the right o
f 'Apache Web Server' and 'MySQL Database Server' should both be GREEN. (Not gra
y.) If both circles are not green, click the right-hand column's top button "Sta
rt Acquia Drupal Stack".
Click the right-column button "Settings...".

HTTP Error 500.0 on IIS since this install
JohnWSMarvin commented 5 years ago
Fixed: Leaving this here in case someone else runs into it. After the DAMP insta
ll WebMatrix no longer was using PHP 5.3, but was using 5.2. Setting it back to
5.3 brings back my error messages.
The next question: After installing DAMP, how do I tell it to use PHP 5.3? It se
ems to have installed 5.2.
---Original error description below:
Before I was learning Drupal, I was doing PHP work in WebMatrix on IIS.
Rather than figuring out how to upgrade from Drupal 7.2 (installed by WebMatrix)
to Drupal 7.8 to work on IIS, I installed DAMP.
Now, my client has asked for changes to my php project, and every single PHP err
or results in HTTP Error 500.0. I see no PHP error messages.
Which is fine as long as I never make a mistake.
Two Questions:
1. How can this be fixed?
2. How do I use my new Apache server to run my php scripts? Such a newbie questi
on, I know. But in WebMatrix, I just use the Run button on the editor, so I've n
ever had to think about it.
