What is a LAMP in Linux?

LAMP stands for Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP. Together, they provide a proven set of software for delivering high-performance web applications. Each component contributes essential capabilities to the stack: Linux: The operating system.

Installing a LAMP on Ubuntu 21.04

First of all. Make sure you are using an user with permissions so that you can use commands such as 'apt-get' etc.

1 - Installing Apache WebServer

root@petrosky:/# apt install apache2

2 - Installing MariaDB

root@petrosky:/# apt install mariadb*

3 - Configuring the MariaDB database

root@petrosky:/# mysql_secure_installation

You will be prompted whether to set a password or not. We highly recommend setting up a password for the 'root' DB User and disabling Remote SQL Connections.

4 - Installing PHP

root@petrosky:/# apt install php libapache2-mod-php

Yet we are done! Now we have our LAMP Installed!
