Laragon 5 currently does not support changing the password for MySQL8 in the GUI Menu. Here is how you do it.

For Laragon 5 with MySQL 8 with no password

Login to the laragon mysql from the console (Click the Terminal button on the Laragon GUI interface)

mysql -u root -p

Just hit enter when it prompts for password

Then to set the password, in this case, to "secret"

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'secret';

To go back to no password with MySQL8

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '';

You can add Xdebug to Laragon easily.
Method 1: Using phpinfo() & Xdebug Wizard

Copy phpinfo() content:
http://localhost/?q=info

Paste the copied data to the form in the Xdebug Wizard page
https://xdebug.org/wizard.php

Click "Analyse my phpinfo() output", and follow the instructions.

Note: Their instructions will ask for "4. Restart the webserver" but with Laragon, you just need to click Reload button.

With Laragon, adding another Apache version is very easy.

Download Apache (64-bit):
https://www.apachelounge.com/download/VS16/binaries/httpd-2.4.48-win64-VS16.zip Extract the downloaded to: {LARAGON_ROOT}\bin\apache\httpd-2.4.48-win64-VS16 C:\laragon -- bin -- apache -- httpd-2.4.48-win64-VS16 -- ............. Select the new version at: Laragon Menu > Apache > Version > httpd-2.4.48-win64-VS16

Very easy huh. That's all forks!

Ref: https://www.apachelounge.com/download/

You can also add/update phpMyAdmin easily yourself. Just download from its official site (https://www.phpmyadmin.net/downloads) and extract to {LARAGON_DIR}\etc\apps\phpMyAdmin.
That's all.

Now, you can acess phpMyAdmin at:
http://localhost/phpmyadmin

Salut les devs,

A la demande d'un certain nombre de personnes de la communauté française du développement web, j'ai produit une formation complète sur Laragon.

Hello!
I am trying to install this program opensourcepos, which requires these extensions enabled for it to work. please how can I enable this in laragon? thank you.

When sharing your Wordpress site outside through ngrok - all styles, images, scripts are lost.

The reason is links in Wordpress are absolute and hard-configured in database, you just need to install the odt-relative-urls plugin and it will work:
https://github.com/optimizamx/odt-relative-urls/archive/1.0.2.zip

Hello,

In order to use the mail() function, from https://laragon.org/docs/mail-sender.html , we need to (as i understood)

Mail Analyzer
Using Username & Password to send emails is not a best practice, so Gmail disables it by default. You may need to turn it on:
https://myaccount.google.com/lesssecureapps

Within a few days, this configuration allowing to use gmail to test mail() functions will not be avalaible anymore.

How should we do to be able to use mail() on localhost , for testing purpose of course.

regards

With Laragon, adding another Python version is very easy.

1.Download Python Zip package from my github repo:
You can download Python 2.7:
https://github.com/leokhoa/laragon/releases/download/portable/python-2.7.13.zip

or Python 3.6:
https://github.com/leokhoa/laragon/releases/download/portable/python-3.6.1.zip

Note that you can download and use both (just switch version). Suppose you download Python 2.7. Extract the downloaded to: C:\laragon\bin\python\python-2.7 (If there is no python dir in bin, just create it) C:\laragon -- bin -- python -- python-2.7 -- ............. Close Laragon, then open it again (to refresh the Menu). Select the version at: Laragon Menu > Python > Version > python-2.7

Now, open Terminal (Ctrl - Alt - T) and type:

python --version

you should see something like that: Python 2.7.13

pip --version

you should see something like that: pip 9.0.1 ...............

Congrats! Your Laragon now has Python!
Very easy huh. That's all forks!

Laragon Portable Packages Configuration File Kit

The following is a quick share for those of you that may want a quick fix for your Laragon packages.conf file.
Copy and Paste the "Code Blocks" into your new packages.conf file.

Then, once done, you need to point to the required <packages> in the sites.conf file to be able to use them via the Quick App menu.

### Laragon Portable Packages Configuration File Kit # This is a template Config file for a fully portable option for Laragon. For those times you are upon a mountain # somewhere and need your fix ;-) But you have to download all the packages beforehand, of course. # The links are included in each section. # Copy it into your Laragon Root folder and replace the initially installed file # called "packages.conf" in the folder: C:\Laragon\usr\<packages.conf> # Let's work from a local folder where the latest Required packages are stored: # In this case I have saved the LATEST-available packages on my local machine here: # Directory: C:\Laragon\Packages\<package.that.you.want>

If you don't want to use it as a portable option, you can simply replace the relevant Local <package.file> link with the link to the original repository:

Original link
PHP8.1.X-TS = C:\Laragon\Packages\php-8.1.5-Win32-vs16-x64.zip # Update April 2022

Adding another MySQL version is very easy and safe with Laragon.
Hint: This tutorial also applies for MariaDB.
https://downloads.mariadb.org/mariadb/10.2.6/#os_group=windows
[Download the MariaDB 64-bit version]

Download MySQL 5.7 (64-bit) or 32-bit:
https://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MySQL-5.7/mysql-5.7.18-winx64.zip Extract the downloaded to: {LARAGON_ROOT}\bin\mysql\mysql-5.7.18-winx64 (see below Note for MariaDB) C:\laragon -- bin -- mysql -- mysql-5.7.18-winx64 -- ............. Select the new version at: Laragon Menu > MySQL > Version > mysql-5.7.18-winx64

Very easy huh. That's all forks!

Note: If you use MariaDB, extract it to: {LARAGON_ROOT}\bin\mysql\mariadb-10.2.6-winx64, Laragon will automatically create correspond DataDir for MariaDB on data/mariadb

I moved my project in laragon folder, all is working but I need an help to read the terminal output.

How can I read app.test erminal output? Opening LAragon terminal I don't see nothing, and if I start "php artisan serve" it only create a new server running, but I would like to see the (exposed on my lan) app.test command line output..

Can I read it olso from vscode?

I am using nginx.
