The interest to install even the different "Server" components needed for Dolibarr to work properly is the possibility to choose newer versions than those proposed by the DoliWamp installer.
+The interest to install by yourself the different "Server" components needed for Dolibarr to work properly is the possibility to choose newer versions than those proposed by the DoliWamp installer.

+
+*In the '''Resource Monitor''', click on the '''Network''' tab.
+*In the '''Listening Ports''' section, sort the column '''Port''' to be able to search more easily.
+*In the '''Port''' column, search for the port you are interested in (for example '''80''' for the standard port of the Web Server '''Apache2''' or '''3306''' for the Database Server '''MariaDB''').

+[[File:Ports d'écoute Windows.png|none|frame|A program "listen" already on port '''80''', it is '''httpd.exe''' (i.e. '''Apache2''').|link=Special:FilePath/Ports_d'écoute_Windows.png]]
+
+If you can't find a line for the port number you are looking for, then that's fine (this means that no program is listening on that port and therefore it is available).
+
+If, on the other hand, you find a match, then a program is already listening on this port and you will have to choose another listening port when you install your server.
+
+====Choose another port than the default 3306 for MariaDB====
+On the fifth page of the '''MariaDB''' installer, enter another port in the box '''TCP port:''' (eg '''3308''' - but make sure the port you choose is not already in use using the technique specified above).
+
+After you change port for '''MariaDB''', when you install Dolibarr, when you enter port in section '''Dolibarr database''', don't forget to enter the replacement port you chose instead of standard port '''3306'''.
+
+====Choose another port than the default 80 for Apache2====
+When customizing the '''Apache2''' configuration file, replace the line <code>ServerName localhost:80</code> by <code>ServerName localhost:<my_port></code> to specify another port (for example <code>ServerName localhost: 8080</code> to use port '''8080''' - but make sure the port you choose is not already in use by using the technique specified above). You will also need to replace the <code>80</code> of the <code>Listen 80</code> : line with the port number you choose.
+
+After changing the listening port, you will need to specify the port in the addresses you type in your browser: for example <code>http://localhost:8080</code>, <code>http://localhost:8080/test</code>, <code>http://localhost:8080/dolibarr</code>, etc. instead of <code>http://localhost</code>, <code>http://localhost/test</code>, <code>http://localhost/dolibarr</code>.

+We have seen in this documentation the creation of Windows "Services" allowing to start automatically the Database Management System '''MariaDB''' and the Web Server '''Apache2''' at the (re)startup of the computer.
+
+Windows is delivered with a software allowing to manage graphically the "Services". It is thus possible to consult their status (started, stopped) and to act on them (start, stop, restart).
+
+*Next to the Windows button allowing to open the start menu, in the search box "'''Type here to search'''", click then type <code>services</code>. In the list of options on the right, choose "'''Open'''" or click on the full title of the software to launch it ('''Services''').

+*Find the Service for which you want to check the status or perform an action (start, stop, restart) in the list of Services that appears. For example, search for '''MariaDB''' or '''Apache2'''.
+
+In the column '''Status''', you can check the current status of the Service (on the screenshot below, we see that the service '''Apache2.4''' is '''Running''', ie it is started).
+
+*Right click on the Service to manage to display the context menu and then select the action to perform (Start, Stop or Restart).

+⚠️ '''<u>Warning!</u>''' The files present in the directory <code>C:\Program Files\MariaDB 10.4\data\dolibarr</code> are the physical files of the database. Saving these files will only allow you to reuse them with the same version of the database. A more robust way to perform a database backup is to perform an export using for example the tool '''<code>mysqldump</code>'''.
+</div>
+
+===How to save my manual installation===
+
+In Dolibarr, three things are important to save :
+
+*The database (MariaDB), which contains all your entries (business proposal lines, invoices, etc.).
+*the folder <code>documents</code> which contains PDF documents generated by Dolibarr (commercial proposals, invoices, etc.) as well as uploaded ones.
+*the configuration file <code>conf/config.php</code> that contains connection parameters to your database and other configuration information.
+
+====Backup the database====
+
+There are several ways to back up the database.
+
+=====Directly from Dolibarr=====
+
+[[File:Sauvegarde de la base de données depuis Dolibarr.png|thumb|Backup of the database from Dolibarr|none|750x750px|link=Special:FilePath/Sauvegarde_de_la_base_de_données_depuis_Dolibarr.png]]
+
+Once connected to Dolibarr,
+
+*Select the menu '''Backup''' in the '''Administrative Tools''',
+*In '''Compression''', select - for simplicity - '''None''' (Windows does not include a standard utility to decompress Gzip files but you can activate it if you have for example 7-Zip, PeaZip, WinZip or WinRar).
+*Click on '''Generate Backup'''.
+
+<br />
+[[File:Télécharger la sauvegarde de base de données.png|Download database backup|none|frame|link=Special:FilePath/Télécharger_la_sauvegarde_de_base_de_données.png]]
+Once the backup has been generated, you can download it by clicking on the link of the file in the right section '''Existing database backup files'''.
+
+=====Manually using the HeidiSQL graphics tool=====
+During the installation of the Database Management System '''MariaDB''', the graphical tool HeidiSQL was also installed.
+
+*Next to the Windows button to open the start menu, in the search box '''Type here to search''', click and type <code>heidisql</code>. In the list of options on the right, choose "'''Open'''" or click on the full title of the software to launch it ('''HeidiSQL''').
+

+
+*Check the box '''Remove/DROP''' in the section '''Table(s):''' then, in '''File name:''' choose the path where you want to export the backup and the name of the file. If you followed all installation documentation, a good practice is to place export at the same place as when you realize it with Dolibarr interface (method of above paragraph): <code>C:\dolibarr\documents\admin\backup\%db-%date.sql</code> . <code>%db</code> will be replaced automatically by database name ('''<code>dolibarr</code>''') and <code>%date</code> by date and hour of export.
+*Click on '''Export''' to launch the export.

+<syntaxhighlight lang="batch">
+mysqldump -u root -p --opt dolibarr > dolibarr-2020-05-20-14-30.sql
+</syntaxhighlight>
+You will be prompted to enter the database administrator's password that you chose when you installed MariaDB (screen 4 of the installation wizard).
