how to test my LAMP?

Hello!

I have to set up a LAMP (with SSL) web platform. I got apache+mod_ssl, openSSL, mysql, php4 and respective modules and plugs.
Apache works just fine. I can connect to my localhost:443 . MySQL works to - I can create databases and run queries.

At this point some questions emerged:

1) How can I make the the localhost site to be https://localhost, not http://localhost:443 ?

-and-

2) How can I test if my platform works? Some fast way - just to show that the platform has been built?

thanks!

2. A quick way is through phpinfo(). Create a page test.php with the following code:

Code:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

and point your browser to that URL (i.e. http://localhost/test.php)

1. To use SSL you must create a pair of certificate/key for your server and use port 443 to listen for secure connections. Take a look at this howto for details.
