Are there any all-in-one packages that help install wamp on a production server?

I need to install amp on a windows2003 production server. I'd like, if possible, an integrated install/management tool so I don't have to install/integrate the components of amp separately. Those that I've found are 'development' servers. Are there any packages out there that install amp in a production ready (locked down state)?

I'm aware of LAMP... Windows, since we have IIS apps already and we've paid for this box, is a requirement. I'll take care of all the other hangups. I just want a simple way to install, integrate, and manage AMP.

There doesn't appear to be any all-in one packages that are up to date and 'designed' for production. You just can't trust the default installs to be secure on whats out there.

WampDeveloper Pro is a commercial WAMP package that is specifically designed for production use (which I use).

I don't think that when this question was asked there was a viable solution for the above.

Since the time this question was asked Zend has released Zend Server.

Zend Server is a complete, enterprise-ready Web Application Server for running and managing PHP applications that require a high level of reliability, performance and security.

I ended up just doing this manually. It wasn't painful though. Each component's install procedure was documented reasonably well. Took me about 3.5hrs. A nice side effect of the involved setup was that it gave me a much better understanding of each component's dependencies and the ways in which they touch. In hind sight I should have done it manually from the start.

Note: make sure you read the comments below each component's documentation pages. Some contain valuable corrections to the install process.

Xampp is quite popular, i just don't know how "production level" it is:

Without wanting to sound elite: For "real" production Environments, it's possibly not a bad idea to setup and configure the components individually, but this requires some deeper knowledge than "hit setup and run".

I'm not sure running WAMP as a production server is a good idea. I use wamp to stage proyects and then I move them to a Linux server. You can try any of this solutions: http://www.uniformserver.com/ Some people state that they are working fine with WAMP Server, but again, I wouldn't recommend it.
