3 Install PHP
Install
PHP with following command:
# sudo apt-get update
# sudo apt-get install php libapache2-mod-php php-mcrypt php-mysql
|
In most cases, we'll want to modify the way that Apache serves files when a directory is requested. Currently, if a user requests a directory from the server, Apache will first look for a file called index.html. We want to tell our web server to prefer PHP files, so we'll make Apache look for an index.php file first.
To do this, type this command to open the dir.conf file in a text editor with root privileges:
# sudo vim /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dir.conf
|
Erase all data and paste below Code:
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.cgi index.pl index.xhtml index.htm
</IfModule>
Test your
php version
root@subhash:# php -v
To
test PHP, create a sample “testphp.php” file in Apache document root folder.
# sudo vim
/var/www/html/testphp.php
Add the following lines:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
Restart apache2 service.
# sudo systemctl restart apache2
Navigate to http://server-ip-address/testphp.php. It will display
all the details about php such as version, build date and commands etc.
4 Install phpMyAdmin
phpMyAdmin
is a free open-source web interface tool used to manage your MySQL databases.
It is available in the Official Debian repositories. So install it with
command:
# sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin
|
Select
the Web server that should be automatically configured to run phpMyAdmin. In my
case, it is apache2.
The
phpMyAdmin must have a database installed and configured before it can be used.
This can be optionally handled by dbconfig-common.
Select
‘Yes’ to configure database for phpmyadmin wjth dbconfig-common.
Enter password of the database’s administrative
user.
Enter MySQL application password for phpmyadmin:
Re-enter password:
Success! phpMyAdmin installation is installed.
Configure
phpMyAdmin
# sudo vim /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
|
Add the following line at the end.
Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
|
Save and Exit. Restart apache service:
# sudo systemctl restart apache2
|
Access phpMyAdmin Web Console
Now, you can access the phpmyadmin console by
navigating to http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ from your
browser.
