Re: Zend Server - Development and Production on the same system

[Jon Paris <jon.paris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We use a combination of virtual hosts and multiple Apache instances serving different ports. The major port I use is 1232 (can't recall why) and that is the testing port. Normal port 80 for that host is production. We also use the Zend default of 10088 which is just used for Zend Sever admin tasks.
