LAMP is not a product, a service, a thing. It's just a collection of other tools, as you're apparently already aware. So there can be no actual guide to installing "LAMP", just the constituent parts. install each one to your own satisfaction and off you go. concepts around LAMP are not at all prescriptive of how it is configured, merely that the four technologies are used together.

Thats What I Wana Know...
How should I configure mysql so that It can run together with apache and php...

acid_kewpie · 08-13-2009, 07:16 AM

You don't. As above, you *use* them together, it's not about configuration.

Hi,

Follow this HowTo. It's for Ubuntu but since you haven't mentioned your distro yet.... The steps are easily described and with tests to see if all works well.

If you have any problems, post them, and please mention what distro you're using.

Kind regards,

Eric

if you're stumbling at installing software in the first place, how much further do you expect to get? Under fedora, use yum instead of apt-get.

Its not that...I want to know the configure line which I should use in apache src directory or php src directory to make mysql work with them...

./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local ...like this..

acid_kewpie · 08-13-2009, 09:51 AM

don't. Do not compile anything at all. That's the point of using apt-get or yum, to get fully compatible offical binary packages ready to roll.

EricTRA · 08-13-2009, 10:53 AM

Why didn't you say so in the first post that you are compiling? Then our first question would have been: What extraordinary option do you require that doesn't come with an out of the box installation with package manager?

Just like acid_kewpie said, you don't need to compile anything. Just use the package manager that comes with your distro (yum in your case). If you compile you're sure to encounter A LOT more problems/questions/non funcioning things.

Kind regards,

Eric

Install using yum or use a LAMP package like XAMPP or Bitmapi

chrism01 · 08-13-2009, 07:04 PM

In Fedora, assuming you have the GUI, use the 'Add/Remove Software' option.
If no GUI, use the yum cmd.
Do not compile by hand if you can avoid it.

Compiling is easy, first off you probably need to make sure you have the proper dev files, for that i'd test configure with no flags. Other than that...
