Installing LAMP On UbuntuFor Newbies
In this guide I will show you how to install a LAMP system. LAMP stands for
Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP. The guide is intended to help those who have
very little knowlegde of using Linux.
Install Apache
To start off we will install Apache.
1. Open up the Terminal (Applications > Accessories > Terminal).
2. Copy/Paste the following line of code into Terminal and then press enter:
sudo apt-get install apache2
3. The Terminal will then ask you for you're password, type it and then press enter.
Testing Apache
To make sure everything installed correctly we will now test Apache to ensure it is working properly.
1. Open up any web browser and then enter the following into the web address:
http://localhost/
You should see a folder entitled apache2-default/. Open it and you will see a message saying "It works!" , congrats to you!
Install PHP
In this part we will install PHP 5.
Step 1. Again open up the Terminal (Applications > Accessories > Terminal).
Step 2. Copy/Paste the following line into Terminal and press enter:
sudo apt-get install php5 libapache2-mod-php5
Step 3. In order for PHP to work and be compatible with Apache we must restart it. Type the following code in Terminal to do this:
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Test PHP
To ensure there are no issues with PHP let's give it a quick test run.
Step 1. In the terminal copy/paste the following line:
Installing LAMP On Ubuntu For Newbies | Howto... http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_lamp_for_ne...
5 of 25 05/28/2011 05:36 PM
sudo gedit /var/www/testphp.php
This will open up a file called phptest.php.
Step 2. Copy/Paste this line into the phptest file:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
Step 3. Save and close the file.
Step 4. Now open you're web browser and type the following into the web address:
http://localhost/testphp.php
The page should look like this:
Test PHP Page
Congrats you have now installed both Apache and PHP!
Install MySQL
To finish this guide up we will install MySQL. (Note - Out of Apache and PHP, MySQL is the most difficult to set up. I will provide
some great resources for anyone having trouble at the end of this guide.)
Step 1. Once again open up the amazing Terminal and then copy/paste this line:
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
Step 2 (optional). In order for other computers on your network to view the server you have created, you must first edit the
"Bind Address". Begin by opening up Terminal to edit the my.cnf file.
gksudo gedit /etc/mysql/my.cnf
Change the line
bind-address = 127.0.0.1
Installing LAMP On Ubuntu For Newbies | Howto... http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_lamp_for_ne...
6 of 25 05/28/2011 05:36 PM
And change the 127.0.0.1 to your IP address.
Step 3. This is where things may start to get tricky. Begin by typing the following into Terminal:
mysql -u root
Following that copy/paste this line:
mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('yourpassword');
(Make sure to change yourpassword to a password of your choice.)
Step 4. We are now going to install a program called phpMyAdmin which is an easy tool to edit your databases. Copy/paste the
following line into Terminal:
sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-auth-mysql php5-mysql phpmyadmin
After that is installed our next task is to get PHP to work with MySQL. To do this we will need to open a file entitled php.ini
open it type the following:
gksudo gedit /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
Now we are going to have to uncomment the following line by taking out the semicolon (;).
Change this line:
;extension=mysql.so
To look like this:
extension=mysql.so
Now just restart Apache and you are all set!
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
The End
Quick note to anyone who encountered problems with setting up the MySQL password, please refer to this page:
MysqlPasswordReset
I applaud everyone who has taken the time to read this guide. This guide is also my first ever so I would love to hear back from
the public on what you guys think! Just don't be too harsh. ;)
If you have questions about installing any part of LAMP just drop them in the comment box and I will do my best to help you out.

Lamp installationSubmitted by Ges Scott (not registered) on Tue, 2011-04-05 19:12.
Excellent! Thank you so much. You're tutorial is straightforward and so easy to follow. After quite a number of years using WAMP on windows I
migrated to Linux using Ubuntu. I was very concerned about using/configuring my development environment. I had searched around for a
way to use LAMP. I found you! Everything was/is up and running within half hour just by pasting your commands.
Once again thank you very much. More tutorials like this from you please!

This guide was invaluable, my mother in law sponsors a student where I live, and the student needs a machine as she can't afford one*. I
have resurrected a 7 year old laptop with XUbuntu into a reasonably decent dev environment, so your altruism has helped people helping
others, good karma :-).
Went as smoothly as ice, I'm a .net dev by day and I love Linux, but my job keeps me pretty tied to MS operating systems. I only use Linux
under VMs to keep my hand in. When my wife buys herself a new lappie, I have plans for the old one :evil grin:
* This is why I've remained anonymous.

You have to follow the next instructions:
To set up under Apache all you need to do is include the following line in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, first type the following command to
open up this file:
gksudo gedit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
Add the following line of code inside apache2.conf:
Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
Now restart Apache:
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

additional noteSubmitted by Caz_blue (not registered) on Tue, 2011-01-11 13:40.
Thanks for the brilliant tutorial, I would not have gotten this installed without it.
just a small note, step 3 was not needed in the version of Ubuntu I'm using ( I think it's maverick meerkat?) there was a prompt to get
through step three that popped up at the end of step two.
--------------------------------------
After all steps where done (successfully) the landing page was throwing an error, this was needed to fix it.
gksudo gedit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
Add the following line of code inside apache2.conf:

great tutorial just stops a little shortSubmitted by Anonymous (not registered) on Wed, 2010-11-10 05:56.
This is a really well written tutorial I would like to see it go just a little bit farther and explain how to get a page set up that says something
more than "it works".

Lamp ServerSubmitted by Web design for ... (not registered) on Sat, 2010-10-23 17:24.
This is an excellent tutorial. I totally messed up my Ubuntu 9.04 installation by getting it all wrong and I can see where I went wrong now. I
now have a fresh clean install of 10.04 and the correct way of installing LAMP. Fantastic...thank you.

This is an amazinglySubmitted by Anonymous (not registered) on Thu, 2010-10-21 18:50.
This is an amazingly accurate step by step tutorial. It was very clear and accurate!! I just follow the instructions here and everything worked
fine (apache and php). During the install, I was prompted with few additional y/n prompts and different prompts for passwords not
mentioned in the tutorial. But I am very familiar with WAMP (Windows rather than Linux) setup, so slight differences didn't throw me off
though.
I am a bit confused about the reference to "extension=msql.so" though. My php.ini file contains that, but one of the comments says it
should be "...mysql.so". ???
You have a talent for this, please keep doing it!

Awesome startup docSubmitted by gholton (not registered) on Wed, 2010-10-20 06:49.
I tried a few other help me pages for LAMP. I ended up blowing up my system twice and trying again. Then I found your document and it
worked like a breeze.

The "extension=msql.so" really needing to be "extension=mysql.so" should be added but luckily a fellow poster had it covered.
Again excellent assist here. Thanks!

Wow finally somebody that knows what they are doing but is clear and concise. I literally have visited like 10-20 other sites trying to get this
working and they all have gotten me confused or haven't been thorough and complete.
Thanks!
Keep it up.

Thanks for taking the time to write this tutorial. I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 -- my first new Linux since Slackware. I found a few of the

get stuck at step 3Submitted by newuser (not registered) on Fri, 2010-09-17 10:34.
Thanks. followed the guide to step 3 w/o any problems, but at step 3 I get the following message in the terminal: ERROR 1045 (28000):
Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
reply |
Re: get stuck at step 3Submitted by Anonymous (not registered) on Wed, 2010-09-22 06:51.
I got the same, but realized it was because I already set up the root user and password on install. Just use
>mysql u- root -p
to get in and set up any other users for your new database.

didnt find ;extension=mysql.so in php.ini fileSubmitted by Anonymous (not registered) on Tue, 2010-08-31 06:58.
This is a very good tutorial but i failed to find ';extension=mysql.so' in the php.ini file instead i found ';extension=msql.so' and changed it to
extension=mysql.so by adding 'y'.

Re: didnt find ;extension=mysql.so in php.ini fileSubmitted by Cid Visious (not registered) on Sat, 2010-09-11 04:31.
The name is extension=msql.so
just take out the ; infront of extention=msql.so to make it look like this
extension=mysql.so
then restart the server.
