Question How to install apache server for Perl and PHP


Hello friends,
Please tell me how to install Apache web server as I want to run my Perl and PHP scripts in web environment. Please also tell me what configuration I need for Perl and PHP. Does I also need some separate software/package/module for perl and PHP?

I have experience of running ASP scripts with IIS in Windows environment but have no idea of Apache in Linux for Perl and PHP. Please tell me anything that I need to know.

Regards.

First, what flavor of GNU/Linux are you running?

as fpmurphy says, please let us know what distribution you're using.

in debian based distros it's along the lines of
"sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 perl"

in red hat based it's along the lines of
"sudo yum install httpd php perl"

for broader search, such as exact version:
debian based: "sudo apt-cache search php" (lists a whole bunch though, might want to pipe it to less)
red hat based: "sudo yum search php" (same as above)

keep also in mind, depending what distro you're using, it might not really be the newest stuff.
while for example debian squeeze is on php 5.2.9, centos 5.3 is on php 5.1.6.

As root
Code:
yum groupinstall "Web Server"
Fedora also provides a graphical interface for configuring Apache. To install
Code:
yum install system-config-httpd
