I have seen tutorials instructing beginners on the installation of the LAMP stack on Ubuntu. Most of these tutorials are too complicated for a beginner. The easiest way to install the LAMP stack on a non-production system is:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install lamp-server^
Now navigate to "localhost"
in your preferred web browser. This location corresponds to "/var/www/html"
on your file-system. Utilizing the "chmod"
command, the file and directory permissions can be set depending on use cases. You can learn more about chmod here.
Try putting a PHP file in "/var/www/html"
with the name "test.php"
:
<?php echo "I installed the LAMP stack on Ubuntu!";
Now navigate to localhost/test.php
and "I installed the LAMP stack on Ubuntu!"
will be displayed on the screen.
You are now set to develop PHP applications!
Real nice design and fantastic subject material, absolutely nothing else we need : D.
