WAMP(Webserver) installation on Windows

• 1.       Install Python 3.x version.
• 2.       Download and install Microsoft visual studio-2008&2010&2012&2013&2015(Both 32bit and 64 bit)

• 6.       Select “Apache>httpd.conf” file
• 7.       Inside httpd.conf, look for the line that says “<Directory “c:/wamp/www/”>“, just a few lines below this you’ll find the line that says “Options Indexes FollowSymLinks“. Add “Includes ExecCGI” in the line just next to FollowSymLinks, thus it look like this
• 8.       Replace that line with below text

         

• 9.       Above “AddHandler” is to support “.cgi ” files and “.py” files. If you want perl also you can mention as “.pl”. And also comment a line “Deny from all” to overcome “Error: Forbidden Error” when you access from remote system
