Install via Bitnami

Less a question and more so a possible solution to some common issues. I had every problem under the sun with installing the community server and work bench. Requested passwords, installing / uninstalling, syntax errors, connection errors etc.

I downloaded LAMP through bitnami and used a different port number. Everything works now. Hopefully this helps someone.
