PHP/MySQL/Apache

Meh · July 03, 2004, 10:45 AM

Does anybody know an installer for these all in one, other than PHPTriad or EasyPHP as they are not working? Thanks.

PHPDev, It doesn't include MySQL, you need a seperate program for that.

Added: Apache is used as a PHP interpreter I believe, so those two go hand-in-hand, while you need a seperate program to run MySQL (I believe).

It is not too hard to individually install them if you follow the directions that come with.

It's really not too hard at all:

Code Select


su
fetch http://someapachemirror.org/apache-version.tar.gz
tar xvfz apache-version.tar.gz
cd apache-version.tar.gz
./configure
make
make install
cd ..
fetch http://phpmirror.net/php-version.tar.gz
tar xvfz php-version.tar.gz
cd php-version
./configure
make
make install
cd ..
fetch http://mysqlmirror.org/mysql-version.tar.gz
tar xvfz mysql-version.tar.gz
cd mysql-version
make
make install

Or, if you were on FreeBSD (which you should be

)

Code Select


su
pkg_add -rv apache
pkg_add -rv php
pkg_add -rv mysql

w00t!

Don't forget to initialize Apache and MySQL in your startup scripts.

Meh · July 05, 2004, 01:41 PM

I got it working, but what do you mean by initialize it in the startup, I can connect and retrieve data.

Banana fanna fo fanna · July 05, 2004, 02:36 PM

ah, right

put them in your startup file/dir, either /etc/rc.local, /usr/local/etc/rc.d/, or /etc/rc.d/

Should have mentioned I am running Windows XP for the next 2 weeks. Everythings fine though now thanks. I get a server in 2 weeks that runs Unix.

There's no need to bore us with mundane details such as what OS you are running. We can easily read your mind and formulate the correct answer. Knowing that you will soon realize Linux or BSD is the best way to go, we gave you the appropriate answers.

Oh and in reply to your next post, "You're Welcome".
