Installing apache, php and mysql on Debian (Raspberry Pi)


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know how you can install specific versions of Apache, MySQL and PHP on Linux?  Specifically, I'm using a Raspberry Pi (which I'm running Raspbian Wheezy, which is based on Debian but for the ARM architecture) and it uses the apt (or apt-get, not sure which one its called) package manager.

 

I can install whatever version is found in the catalog simply by issuing the install command, but I want to use specific versions of at least PHP and MySQL (to match the versions used on the web server I host my site on).

 

Anyone have any advice?  I tried visiting PHP's site and the MySQL site, but can't find the versions I need for this distro and architecture.  Will any debian version work, even though its an ARM processor?

Sounds like you need to build it yourself from the source. The hardest part is the configuration: there are tons of options, many you'll want and many you won't.

apt is the package manager, apt-get is one of the commands available to control it.
