For all the symbian freak this is a great news for you all. A substitute for lamp that’s supposed running on pc and servers are now available for you mobile phones. PAMP, S60 Powered Apache Web Server with PHP and MySQL is now available for the S60 3rd edition phones. The acronym AMP refers to a solution stack of software, usually free software / open-source software, used to run dynamic Web sites or servers. PAMP has successfully been installed and tried on N95 and E61i that both have 64MB of RAM and if you primarily just want to run MySQL and any S60 3rd Edition device with 64MB RAM should be fine.


Download from SourceForge either pamp_with_htdocs_on_c.zip or pamp_with_htdocs_on_e.zip, depending on whether you want to have the web-server’s document root in phone memory or on the memory card. It’s easy to later change the location of the document root.

PAMP sis is a composite file containing many individual sis-files that all have been signed with a so called self-signed certificate. The implication is that you numerous times have to acknowledge that you really want to have the software installed. The PAMP files are big and there are many of them. After the security warnings there will be a significant delay before the installation proceeds and the phone may appear frozen.

After the installation you will find two new applications on your phone. Pamp and Connector. Latter is a component that can provide your phone with a global URL

1. Start Pamp
2. Invoke [Options]->[Start]->[Pamp]
3. Wait until both Apache and MySQL says Running
4. Start the browser on the phone.
5. Browse to http://127.0.0.1.

It should work fine if you greeted with a page that says It works!.

    Hi, good to note that if you are not quite ready to go “bleading edge” with PHP and MySQL our stabile version can be got from http://mymobilesite.net, it still has Apache and Python some nice ready-made applications.
