LAMP Installation Problem in Ubuntu Lucid 10.04

Hello folks,

I am trying to configure LAMP environment on ubuntu10.04 Lucid system.I am writing the output & attaching files of output of different issues.

PHP is not running,I cant figure out why its not working.

To add this issue I would like to inform you that nanoweb server is working{I can see the page in web browser"It Works"}.Also MySQL is working fine.

To summarize Linux-->Apache/Nanoweb but no bridge between MySQL--X--> PHP.

Please guide me for right direction,how to approach this problem as i am unable to crack this common problem.

output:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
iit@iit-desktop:~$ php
PHP Deprecated: Comments starting with '#' are deprecated in /etc/php5/cli/conf.d/imagick.ini on line 1 in Unknown on line 0
PHP Deprecated: Comments starting with '#' are deprecated in /etc/php5/cli/conf.d/imap.ini on line 1 in Unknown on line 0

---------------------------------------------------------------

Step by step solution will be of great help.

Did you install php5-mysql?
sudo apt-get install php5-mysql

How did you go about installing nanoweb and mysql?

@hanzerik : Nanoweb & MySQL

Thanks Hanzerik for your reply.

Well I have already installed php5-mysql.But just for your Information,Here is the output of "sudo apt-get install php5-mysql"

output:

Code:

iit@iit-desktop:~$ls /etc/apache2/mods-enabled

iit@iit-desktop:~$ls /etc/apache2/mods-available

See if php4.conf and php4.load are located in these two folders. But if I remember correctly Ubuntu 10.04 uses php5, so you may see pgp5.conf and php5.load.

Code:

iit@iit-desktop:~$sudo a2enmod php5

iit@iit-desktop:~$sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload

This will enable the php5 module and restart the Apache2 server. But it looks like something is looking for the php4 module, did you edit any files by hand to look for php4?

Edit To Add: Have a look at this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=354545
You may have the worng php#-pgsql loaded. Are you using phppgadmin for something? if not you might want to remove it.

Code:

iit@iit-desktop:~$sudo a2dismod php4-pgsql

iit@iit-desktop:~$sudo apt-get update

iit@iit-desktop:~$sudo apt-get install php5-pgsql

iit@iit-desktop:~$sudo a2enmod php5-pgsql

iit@iit-desktop:~$sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload

This will disable the php4-pgsql mode, then download and install the php5-pgsql module, then enable the module, then restart apache2. Somewhere there is a version mis-match, whether that is for php4 or php5. That version of phpgadmin depends on libapache2-mod-php5, php5-cgi, php5-pgsql, apache2. So make sure you have all of those dependences installed, which you probably do since when phppgadmin was installed it should have downloaded everything else. My suggestion is, if you don't need it, is to remove phppgadmin.

Since you are using Mysql, you probably don't need phppgadmin because that is for PostgreSQL databases.

phpmyadmin is the app for working with mysql databases.

@hanzerik : Lamp problem

Hello Hanzerik,

I applied the settings as you wrote in your previous post.I am providing you the output of "ls /etc/apache2/mods-enabled"

Output:

In my view,In above output things in bold are conflicting each other and hence apache is not able to start/run as it is not able to decide which PHP version it should run.

output of "ls /etc/apache2/mods-available"

Code:

iit@iit-desktop:~$sudo a2enmod php5
iit@iit-desktop:~$sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload

This will enable the php5 module and restart the Apache2 server. But it looks like something is looking for the php4 module, did you edit any files by hand to look for php4?
--------------------------------------------------------

No I did not edit ANY files by hand in any directory, neither for php4 or php5.

===============================================================
Just to add for your Information,as u suggested I removed "phppgadmin"{sudo apt-get remove phppgadmin}

----------------------------------------------------------------
sudo a2dismod php4-pgsql
[sudo] password for iit:
ERROR: Module php4-pgsql does not exist!
================================================================

apache2 still not starting:(,it says:

Code:

iit@iit-desktop:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload

apache2: Syntax error on line 204 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php4.load: No such file or directory

  ...fail!

I am still fighting this situation & have no idea why It has been not solved yet. Very thankful to you for your kind help.

looking forward for your reply.

Can you do a

Code:

ls -al /etc/apache2/mods-available/php*

Wonder if the php4 module is a symlink to the php5 module. Apache may be freaking out because two versions of php are tring to be used.

Code:

sudo a2dismod php4

Try Disabling the php4 module, or moving those two php4 files in the mods-enabled directory to the mods-available directory.

Don't forget to restart apache2:

Code:

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload

@hanzerik : LAMP problem
