Full installation of Linux LAMP server, Apache, MySql, PHP Debian 9

Posted on by

This tutorial describes how to comprehensively install a LAMP server or Apache basic services, MySql, Php and phpmyadmin.

Prok-by-step we will install all the packages.

We begin by setting the correct server hostname:

1
nano /etc/hosts

And edit

1

7
127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain   localhost
94.130.246.172   node.serwerweb.pl     node
 
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

We are interested in the bold line.
IP address does not move we make only changes the hostname which will see our server.

We edit the file:

1
nano /etc/hostname

I change the

1
node.serwerweb.pl

In order to change the whole system restart server command:

1
2
reboot
 

validate the set hostname:

1
2
hostname
hostname -f

Both commands should return us to the same value:
node.serwerweb.pl

1
2
3
4
root@node:/tmp# hostname
node.serwerweb.pl
root@node:/tmp# hostname -f
node.serwerweb.pl

Next, we perform the system update:

1
2
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

Install MariaDB database engine

MariaDB:

1
apt-get -y install mariadb-server mariadb-client

mysql_secure_installation
 
NOTE: RUNNING ALL PARTS OF THIS SCRIPT IS RECOMMENDED FOR ALL MariaDB
SERVERS IN PRODUCTION USE! PLEASE READ EACH STEP CAREFULLY!
 
In order to log into MariaDB to secure it, we'll need the current
password for the root user. If you've just installed MariaDB, and
you haven't set the root password yet, the password will be blank,
so you should just press enter here.
 
Enter current password for root (enter for none): <-- Hit return
OK, successfully used password, moving on...
 
Setting the root password ensures that nobody can log into the MariaDB
root user without the proper authorisation.
 
Set root password? [Y/n] -- y
New password: <-- Enter the new password for the MariaDB root user
Re-enter new password: <-- Enter the password again
Password updated successfully!
Reloading privilege tables..
... Success!
 
 
By default, a MariaDB installation has an anonymous user, allowing anyone
to log into MariaDB without having to have a user account created for
them. This is intended only for testing, and to make the installation
go a bit smoother. You should remove them before moving into a
production environment.
 
Remove anonymous users? [Y/n] -- y
... Success!
 
Normally, root should only be allowed to connect from 'localhost'. This
ensures that someone cannot guess at the root password from the network.
 
Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n] -- y
... Success!
 
By default, MariaDB comes with a database named 'test' that anyone can
access. This is also intended only for testing, and should be removed
before moving into a production environment.
 
Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n] -- y
- Dropping test database...
... Success!
- Removing privileges on test database...
... Success!
 
Reloading the privilege tables will ensure that all changes made so far
will take effect immediately.
 
Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n] -- y
... Success!
 
Cleaning up...
 
All done! If you've completed all of the above steps, your MariaDB
installation should now be secure.
 
Thanks for using MariaDB!

Install Apache:

1
apt-get -y install apache2

PHP Installation:

1
apt-get -y install php7.0 libapache2-mod-php7.0

Restart Apache to save the changes:

1
service apache2 restart

We install the necessary php extensions:

1
apt-cache search php7.0

1
apt-get -y install php7.0-mysql php7.0-curl php7.0-gd php7.0-intl php-pear php-imagick php7.0-imap php7.0-mcrypt php-memcache php7.0-pspell php7.0-recode php7.0-sqlite3 php7.0-tidy php7.0-xmlrpc php7.0-xsl

Again, we restart apache server to save the changes:

1
service apache2 restart

Installation of the cache for the Web server:

1
2
apt-get -y install php7.0-opcache
apt-get -y install php-apcu

save changes:

1
service apache2 restart

The last step is to install fraficzny phpMyAdmin database management interface written in php.

1
apt-get -y install phpmyadmin

And we respond to the questions in the installer:

1

Web server to reconfigure automatically: <-- apache2
Configure database for phpmyadmin with dbconfig-common?<-- Yes
Password of the database's administrative user: <-- Podajemy wcześciej ustalone hasło przy instalacji mysql/mariadb
MySQL application password for phpmyadmin: <-- Ponownie podajemy hasło ustalone wcześniej
 

PhpMyAdmin is available at:

1
http://ADRESIPSERWERA/phpmyadmin/

The last step is to run the root user the ability to log into phpmyadmin:

issue the command:

1
echo "UPDATE mysql.user SET plugin = 'mysql_native_password' WHERE user = 'root' AND plugin = 'unix_socket';FLUSH PRIVILEGES;" | mysql -u root -p

We enter the root password and that's it 🙂

That's all we have a fully functional mysql web server
