Here is a brief description of installing the top most Web-Application developments tools for LAMP Technologies (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP).
Here, I’m presuming that you already have a Linux machine with Ubuntu(likely v11.10).
Steps to install Apache2 Server:
sudo apt-get install apache2
Steps to install MySQL5 Client and Server:
sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client
Steps to install PHP5:
sudo apt-get install php5 libapache2-mod-php5
Setting MySQL5 Support In PHP5:
sudo apt-get install php5-mysql
Installing additional dependencies:
sudo apt-get install php5-curl php5-gd php5-idn php-pear
sudo apt-get install php5-imagick php5-imap php5-mcrypt
sudo apt-get install php5-memcache php5-ming php5-ps php5-pspell
sudo apt-get install php5-recode php5-snmp php5-sqlite
sudo apt-get install php5-tidy php5-xmlrpc php5-xsl
Steps to install PhpMyAdmin:
sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin
To set up PhpMyAdmin under Apache2, you just need to add the following line of code to /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
# Include Phpmyadmin
Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
Now, restart Apache to get the changes affected.
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
or
sudo service apache2 restart
Once phpMyAdmin is installed point your browser to http://localhost/phpmyadmin to start using it.
Cheers 🙂
