It is required to have a webserver running with PHP5 or higher and the mod_rewrite module enabled. The easiest way to do this is leverage a Linux VM with Apache2.

This portal leverages rewrite rules via .htaccess and therefor mod_rewrite needs to be enabled in Apache. More information on this can be found via Enabling mod_rewrite for Apache running on Linux Ubuntu.
Important step
Disable MultiView within the directory document root for Apache. This can be done my modifying the default site configuration and set it as below:
<Directory /var/www/html>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
It is advised to increase or disable the PHP maximum execution time limit. This can modified in the php.ini file as described per changing the maximum execution time limit
