Instaling L.A.M.P on kubuntu.

[lszanto]

I am currently trying to install L.A.M.P on kubuntu and I have downloaded all the .tar.gz versions of apache2, php5 and mysql5 and I have put them onto my linux which is offline the internet. I am having a problem of how to install them as In the instructions it says to extract apache2 to the /etc/ directory but when I try to do so it does not let me, so please advise on what to do or link to a tutorial on what to do.

thanks, Luke.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to go about installing MySQL by myself - Gentoo has done it for me every time. I'm sure the MySQL manual will be able to tell you, though. :)

As for installing Apache and PHP, though, it should go something like this:

[code]
$ tar xzf httpd-2.2.3.tar.gz
$ tar xzf php-5.2.0.tar.gz

$ cd httpd-2.2.3
$ ./configure
$ make
# make install

$ cd ../php-5.2.0
$ ./configure --enable-so
$ make
# make install[/code]

when you see $, it means "run as your user", and when you see # it means "run as root". Apologies if you already knew that.

For the PHP installation, you're likely to want to include more modules - ./configure --help will give you a list of configure options, among which will be a bunch of switches to enable certain modules.

I managed to reinstall kubuntu and apache is working but when I type [CODE]apt-get install phpmyadmin[/CODE]
It says that the package phpmyadmin could not be found, is there a way to install it manually or am I doing the command wrong?

[code]sudo aptitude install apache2 php5-mysql libapache2-mod-php5 mysql-server phpmyadmin[/code]

uh

[code]sudo nano -e /etc/apt/sources.list[/code]

make sure you have universe repositories enabled.

The phpmyadmin configuration file is located at: /etc/phpmyadmin folder.

To set up under Apache all you need to do is include the following line in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf:

Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
