Hi Solmaz, again you raise the issue of an SSO, a good option, and for that you may feel constrained to use a CAS server. If you insist on using software from the Dark Side, then Exchange is as likely your best bet. You might want to look at this documentation from Microsoft, it might help, but then it does originate from the Dark Side. One of the experts in this might be able to provide more detailed information. 

There is a similar issue with using Exchange Server as there is using XAMPP, too many eggs in one basket. This means that in using proprietary software, you are likely to confine your flexibility to what someone else is prepared to give you, not what you can make for yourself. Good luck.

Thanks for your response but it did't help me.

I dont get your mean of Dark Side!

According to your hint I have reinstall manually insted of xampp server, but now you give me another solution that I have not heard any thing about that. I'm new and trust you. I just want to know how can I run SSO with apache 2.4, there is not any module for this version

Sorry, Solmaz, the Dark Side is a populist, sarcastic parody equating Microsoft's relationship with computers to  Darth Vader's relationship with the Force in a Star Wars movie..smile  Or perhaps you might prefer .. it's in German but still watchable, very funny. The move away from XAMPP is a good one. My previous answer provided links to the Authentication documentation and that should give you a better idea on how to get it to work.  

It is my understanding that an SSO depends on the OS, not the web server. If you are using Windows Server 2012 or later, then you should be able to install, Microsoft's Exchange Server.  There is also an issue of what apps you use, how do they use their logins? I am kind of thinking that perhaps you might want to go with LDAP initially, rather than a CAS server, that might be easier to set up, and most web apps have LDAP authentication modules written.. so I have been told.
