Install apache, mysql etc.
 

Hi all :)

I`am a new user and and can not find how to install apache and mysql. I now that slackware comes with DB named MariaDB. What is this DB like ? Is it same like MySQL ? I need a DB because i`m learning programing with Java.

if you have made a full install (the supported one) they are already installed: you have just to configure them

mariadb is a mysql fork, but it's a drop-in replacement (commands and configuration files are the same).

I read this link but i hava a problem with restarting httpd server. When i restart it gives me this error : AH00558: httpd: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1. Set the 'ServerName' directive globally to suppress this message. I make all things from the first step ant when i write localhost it greeted me with It Works ! but when i made index.php file i htdocs and try to load localhost/index.php appears a white page.

that's just a warning.
if you want to get rid of it run the command
it will output your hostname: enter it as the argument of the line of /etc/httpd/httpd.conf that begins with the string "ServerName".
how to enable php is explained in the second part: it's a three parts tutorial.

Hi,

I'm running a few public LAMP servers on Slackware. Here's a HOWTO based on Slackware 14.0:

I`ve read the 3th part but in the begining where i have to install mysql (mysql_install_db) it gave me this error:

[ERROR] mysqld: Can't lock aria control file '/var/lib/mysql/aria_log_control' for exclusive use, error: 11 (i have changed the mod to the folder and file).


In English please :)

If I remember correctly, MariaDB must be stopped when you run that, so run '/etc/rc.d/rc.mysqld stop', and then run the install db command.

if mysql it's already running, you probably have already installed it: to start from scratch
