Installing Apache 2 Toony install the apache2 webserver,usen method to install apache2 It requires a restart for it to work: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart or s sudo service apache2 restart Checking Apache 2 installation With your web browser,go to the URI http://localhost:if you read"It works!"which is the content of the file /var/www/index.html,this proves Apache works. Troubleshooting Apache If you get this error apache2:Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name.using 17.0.0.1 Ubuntu 13.10+ Use a text editor such as "sudo nano"at the command line or "gksudo gedit"on the desktop to create a new file. s sudo nano /etc/apache2/conf-available/fqdn,conf Or s gksu "gedit /etc/apache2/conf-available/fqdn.conf" then add serverName localhost to the file,save it.and enable your new configuration file by running the command below. sudo a2enconf fadn This can all be done in a single command with the following: s echo "ServerName localhost"I sudo tee /etc/apache2/conf-available/fgdn.conf &sudo a2enconf fqdn Ubuntu 13.04 and below In older versions of Apache,the configuration files were located ina different directory.Use a text editor such as"sudo nanoat the command lineor"gksudo gedit"on the desktop to create a new file sudo nano /etc/apache2/conf.d/fgdn Or s gksu "gedit /etc/apache2/conf.d/fqdn" then add

Troubleshooting Apache If you get this error: apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName Ubuntu 13.10+ Use a text editor such as "sudo nano" at the command line or "gksudo gedit" on the desktop to create a new file, $ sudo nano /etc/apache2/conf-available/fqdn.conf or $ gksu "gedit /etc/apache2/conf-available/fqdn.conf" then add ServerName localhost to the file, save it, and enable your new configuration file by running the command below. sudo a2enconf fqdn This can all be done in a single command with the following: $ echo "ServerName localhost" | sudo tee /etc/apache2/conf-available/fqdn.conf && sudo a2enconf fqdn Ubuntu 13.04 and below In older versions of Apache, the configuration files were located in a different directory. Use a text editor such as "sudo nano" at the command line or "gksudo gedit" on the desktop to create a new file, $ sudo nano /etc/apache2/conf.d/fqdn or $ gksu "gedit /etc/apache2/conf.d/fqdn" then add

As an example,we want the default site to be /home/user/public_html/.To do this,we must create a new site and then enable it in Apache2. To create a new site: 1.Copy the default websitea starting cp /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.con 2.Edit the new configuration file in a text editor"sudo nano"on the command line or "gksudo gedit"for example:gksudo gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite.c onf 3. Change the DocumentRoot to point to the new location.For example,/home/user/public_html/ 4.In the file:/etc/apache2/apache2.conf,change the Directory directive, replace toHello!It is working!'>/home/user/public_html/index.html Finally,browse to http:ocalhost Installing PHP 5 Toony install PHP5.useany method to install the package
ServerName localhost to the file and save. This can all be done in a single command with the following: $ echo "ServerName localhost" | sudo tee /etc/apache2/conf.d/fqdn Virtual Hosts Apache2 has the concept of sites, which are separate configuration files that Apache2 will read. These are available in /etc/apache2/sites-available. By default, there is one site available called 000-default. This is what you will see when you browse to http://localhost orhttp://127.0.0.1. You can have many different site configurations available, and activate only those that you need. As an example, we want the default site to be /home/user/public_html/. To do this, we must create a new site and then enable it in Apache2. To create a new site: 1. Copy the default website as a starting point. sudo cp /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.con f /etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite.conf 2. Edit the new configuration file in a text editor "sudo nano" on the command line or "gksudo gedit", for example:gksudo gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite.c onf 3. Change the DocumentRoot to point to the new location. For example, /home/user/public_html/ 4. In the file: /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, change the Directory directive, replace to 5. You can also set separate logs for each site. To do this, change the ErrorLog and CustomLog directives. This is optional, but handy if you have many sites 6. Save the file Now, we must deactivate the old site, and activate our new one. Ubuntu provides two small utilities that take care of this: a2ensite (apache2enablesite) and a2dissite (apache2disable site). $ sudo a2dissite 000-default && sudo a2ensite mysite Finally, we restart Apache2: $ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart If you have not created /home/user/public_html/, you will receive an warning message To test the new site, create a file in /home/user/public_html/: $ echo 'Hello! It is working!' > /home/user/public_html/index.html Finally, browse to http://localhost/ Installing PHP 5 To only install PHP5. use any method to install the package

libapache2-mod-php5 Enable this module by doing $ sudo a2enmod php5 which creates a symbolic link /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5 pointing to /etc/apache2/mods-availble/php5 . Except if you use deprecated PHP code beginning only by "" (without the quotation marks) then, with your web browser, go to the URI "http://localhost/test.php": if you can see a description of PHP5 configuration, it proves PHP 5 works with Apache. Troubleshooting PHP 5 Does your browser ask if you want to download the php file instead of displaying it? If Apache is not actually parsing the php after you restarted it, install libapache2-mod-php5. It is installed when you install the php5 package, but may have been removed inadvertently by packages which need to run a different version of php. If sudo a2enmod php5 returns "$ This module does not exist!", you should purge (not just remove) the libapache2-mod-php5 package and reinstall it. Be sure to clear your browser's cache before testing your site again. To do this in Firefox 4: Edit → Preferences … Privacy → History: clear your recent history → Details : choose "Everything" in "Time range to clean" and check only "cache", then click on "Clear now". Remember that, for Apache to be called, the URI in your web browser must begin with "http://". If it begins with "file://", then the file is read directly by the browser, without Apache, so you get (X)HTML and CSS, but no PHP. If you didn't configure any host alias or virtual host, then a local URI begins with "http://localhost", "http://127.0.0.1" or http://" followed by your IP number. If the problem persists, check your PHP file authorisations (it should be readable at least by Ubuntu user "apache"), and check if the PHP code is correct. For instance, copy your PHP file, replace your whole PHP file content by "" (without the quotation marks): if you get the PHP test page in your web browser, then the problem is in your PHP code, not in Apache or PHP configuration nor in file permissions. If this doesn't work, then it is a problem of file authorisation, Apache or PHP configuration, cache not emptied, or Apache not running or not restarted.

php.ini development vs. production After standard installation, php configuration file /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini is set so as "production settings" which means, among others, that no error messages are displayed. So if you e.g. make a syntax error in your php source file, apache server would return HTTP 500 error instead of displaying the php syntax error debug message. If you want to debug your scripts, it might be better to use the "development" settings. Both development and production settings ini's are located in /usr/share/php5/ /usr/share/php5/php.ini-development /usr/share/php5/php.ini-production so you can compare them and see the exact differences. To make the "development" settings active, just backup your original php.ini sudo mv /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini.bak and create a symlink to your desired settings: sudo cp -s /usr/share/php5/php.ini-development /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini or you may of course also edit the /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini directly on your own, if you wish. PHP in user directories According to this blog, newer versions of Ubuntu do not have PHP enabled by default for user directories (your public_html folder). See the blog for instructions on how to change this back. Installing MYSQL with PHP 5 Use any method to install mysql-server libapache2-mod-auth-mysql php5-mysql After installing PHP You may need to increase the memory limit that PHP imposes on a script. Edit the /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini file and increase the memory_limitvalue. After installing MySQL Set mysql bind address Before you can access the database from other computers in your network, you have to change its bind address. Note that this can be a security problem, because your database can be accessed by other computers than your own. Skip this step if the applications which require mysql are running on the same machine. type: $ sudo nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf
and change the line bind-address -localhost to your own internal ip addresse.g19.168.120 bind-address =192.168.1.20 Ifyour ip address is dynamic you the bind-address line andt will default to your current ip. If you try to connect without changing the bind-address you will recieve a"Can not connect to mysql eTor10061" Set mysql root password Before accessing the database by console you need to type: mysql -u roo At the mysql console type: mysql>SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost'-PASSWORD('yourpassword'); A successful mysql command will show Mysql commands can span several lines.Do not forget to end your mysql command with a semicolon. Note:Ifyou have already set a password for the mysql root,you will need to use: s mysql -u root -p (Did you forget the mysql-root password?)

Edit Apache Configuration You may want your current user to be the PHP pages administrator. To do so, edit the Apache configuration file : $ gksudo "gedit /etc/apache2/envvars" Search both the strings starting by "APACHE_RUN_USER" and "APACHE_RUN_GROUP", and change the names to the current username and groupname you are using. Then you'll need to restart Apache.
