I have in the past downloaded/installed MAMP for PHP/MySQL development on my Mac laptop.
I recently learned about Ubuntu and am intrigued.
I need to either reinstall MAMP (from www.mamp.info/) which is nothing more than a button click or two.
I do not want to find myself inside a unix shell on the command line - if that's required to install Ubuntu
I can't get MAMP to work. I sadly uninstalled and AppZapped MAMP and reinstalled it. Now I can't get WordPress to install. I can make a DB on PHP MyAdmin but I get "not found" when I try the WordPress install. I can't get the PHP info? line to work either. How do you troubleshoot MAMP?Â

I'm just wondering if I should install webmin under root using the sudo command or should I create seperate user space for it?
I would imagine there's a source for this but google's not yielding much. I'm looking for a CD/DVD ISO that will essentially auto install and configure a linux box with at least SSH access so I can manually install the rest.
I know bluequartz does this, put the CD and the install auto configures pretty much everything. Where would one find one click install discs for either CentOS or debian/ubuntu?
I had a HDD crash recently on my Root Server. Replaced HDDs, installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, since Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is not supported by Plesk yet. Anyway...
I had 2 issues:
1) Could not create Customers, because IP Pool was empty. Changed IP Type from Dedicated to Shared. Fixed issue.
2) Cannot connect to the FTP Server using the Login Data from one of my Domains.
FlashFXP and FileZilla both show the same error, which is:
Code:
Response:220 ProFTPD 1.3.4c Server (ProFTPD) [*ip removed*]
Command:USER *user removed*
Response:331 Password required for *user removed*
Command:PASS **************
Response:530 Login incorrect.
Error:Critical error
Error:Could not connect to server
wasn't sure if this should go into "technical" or "programming" but I figure someone here will instantly be able to tell me...
(details: I'm on a shared host with cpanel and centos 3)
My hosting service techs refuse to update gnu TAR on the server even though it's several years old at 1.13 and has some know bugs that are annoying for complex calls - (basically the techs use any request like this to try to upsell me to dedicated or VPS which I don't need at my low level)
So I'd like to install a "local" copy of the newer gnu 1.14 or 1.15 TAR (which I *think* is possible?) into my account and have it run instead of the shared copy?
Unfortunately this is beyond my knowledge so thanks for any help in the right direction...

way to create a VPN tunnel between two ubuntu servers?
Both will be in seperate datacentres but I'd like a secure tunnel so I can setup jobs to backup to one another.
This has to be done on the server level and cannot be done at the router/firewall as I do not have access to this kit.
I'm running MAMP on my macbook.
I want to install Sphinx on my server to play around with it.
I have NO idea what I am doing.
Do I need to upload the Sphinx package to the /MAMP/Library/? directory and then run the commands that Sphinx provides?
I've attached a screenshot of MAMP's structure.
compiling the zip extension for my MAMP installation. I used this tutorial here (using phpize):
[url]
All is well.. but when I run make test it gives me this:

I was disappointed to discover how difficult it is to set up PHP, MySQL and virtual hosts on my MacBook Pro. I finally hired a computer science student to do it for me - but even he screwed it up.
Then I discovered a preconfigured packaged called MAMP. I downloaded the free version and now have Apache, PHP, MySQL and phpMyAdmin up and running. That still leaves the biggest obstacle of all - creating virtual hosts.
I checked out the MAMP Pro version ($50) at
[url]and read "You can set up many virtual hosts."
That doesn't make sense to me; shouldn't you be able to set up many virtual hosts even with the free version of MAMP? Or does MAMP somehow make it EASIER to create virtual hosts, and the Pro version simply allows you to make many of these simplified virtual hosts? If MAMP Pro does indeed make it easy to create virtual hosts, then I'll purchase it immediately.
I'd be interested in other comments about MAMP. Unfortunately, its support forums are awfully lame; that's why I decided to post my questions here.
im using WAMP on a development server, and my main computer can't access the dev server
i.e. i should be able to type in the ip for the other computer and it should bring up my pages,
I have an old PC kicking around that I'd like to turn in to a server connected to my home network for testing/previewing sites. The PC currently has Win XP Pro installed.
I propose to use Apache, complete with MySQL and PHP.
Do I need to have Win XP installed or does Apache work standalone? If I do need an OS, should I use Ubuntu?
I am setting up xampp on my desktop and when at home, I can develop on either the desktop or my laptop using xttp://localhost/ or xttp://desktop/. When I suddenly need to travel, what's the best/easiest/fastest way to make sure I have the files I need to work with on my laptop?
Is it to install xampp on my laptop, and then copy the files I need from /xampp/htdocs over from the desktop? How would I copy the MySQL databases over as well?
I was also looking into Microsoft's SyncToy 2.0. When combined with scheduled tasks I can do automatic sychronizations once per day. Multiple times per day would be ideal... but I could set up pairings and do manual copying everytime I need to run out.
Are there better ways? I could install the 'master' server on my laptop, but I would prefer to keep it on my desktop (more space, more power, etc.)
I have a dedicated Centos 5 server that is a live production server.
Now I need to have a server for testing things like new kernels, updated packages or changed settings to check if the web applications still run after these updates or changes before I update the live production server.
For this purpose I think the best way would be to have local virtual machines under vmware, also putting Centos 5 onto the virtual machine and even creating snapshots of it, before an update in case the update breaks too many things, I could just revert back.
My question is how can I make sure that I install the exact same packages and same versions of everything onto the development server that I have on the production server now?
How do I create an exact duplicate of my production server before I start to test updates?
I have a CentOS dedicated server that does not have gcc,make,other standard develomplent tools installed. The provider adamantly refuses to offer any assistance citing terms of the contract.
Being a newbie in running servers I have trouble finding binary form of packages matching the version of my OS and pre-installed libraries.
Obviously I cannot compile anything without a compiler (including the compiler itself!).
I have downloaded the centos distro, and mounted iso on my server, but that was wrong version. Turns out the right release is only available via bittorrent - which I again cannot install without gcc.
What is "industry standard" for dedicated Linux servers in this respect: do providers typically pre-install tools like gcc? or they leave users figure that out on their own?
Working on bringing up a new site and was looking to solicit some feedback regarding the optimum way to maintain build/production integrity.
I currently use FileZilla FTP client, set file override to trigger on size and do a bulk upload of the entire site.
The problem is that I need to exclude certain files and directories like the image directory and the configure.php etc. every time I do an upload.
I have used Dreamweavers development/production sync features for a client site in the past and that was very good.
I was thinking about writing my own script to do the maintenance work, but thought I would ask if there is a better way.
How do you all maintain your production/development synchronization?
STAY AWAY FROM HOSTINGPLEX! OR SHOULD IT BE HOAX-ING-PLEX? TOTAL INCOMPETENCE!
After one week and no email on my new VPS and repeated requests by the admins to document what the problem was over and over again I decided to contact sales and report how unsatisfied I was with their service.
The 3rd shift admin promptly removed my VPS and destroyed thousands of dollars worth of development.
I guess if you are that lame that you can't get email working on a week you need to lash out and cause damage to someone. I'll be calling in the morning to see if this is regular policy to immediately void a contract and destroy the current working website wothout any warning.
Reponse from hoaxingplex admin below.
Hello,
We haverefunded the payment and removed the vps, your domain is not registered through us so you already have access to reconfigure it for a new vps, we are not withholding access to anything.

I have recently switched from Ubuntu to Mint because I would like to enjoy out of the box functionality. I installed Apache, PHP and Mysql. When I go to localhost, the page displays correctly indicating that the server is functioning. In /var/www/html I created devPages. In devPages I created a symlink to a directory in my home directory where I keep all of my html/php files.
When I point my browser to http://localhost/devPages/1/ I get "You don't have permission to access /devPages/1/ on this server". This appears to be a permissions/ownership issue. I don't want to change the permissions for the directory or files in the home directory because they are set to work properly on my production server. Is there a way to get apache to accept files in my home directory?
I have set owner and group for devPages and the symlink to www-data. Set permissions to 755 for devPages.
By the way, under Ubuntu, I have always used a symlink and it always worked without any issues.
Ubuntu how good it is for hosting platform? also what are its advantages over other os?
View 14 Replies View RelatedWhen we chose Symfony to implement [url], PHP 5 was needed but we only had PHP 4 installed in our Ubuntu hosting servers. We couldn¡¯t just migrate everyone to PHP 5 since some of client¡¯s applications were incompatible with PHP 5. Some tutorials were found online explaining how to run PHP 4 and PHP 5 simultaneously such as [url] and [url]but they all used CGI. As you probably know, CGI is not scalable and we needed to scale in PHP4 and PHP5 since we needed to server millions of hits in both configurations. The following are additional the requirements we had:
1. Run Apache
2. Use mod_php for both PHP versions.
3. Run eAccelerator with both PHP versions.
4. Use as many Ubuntu packages as possible to ease maintenance issues and easily deploy on multiple servers.
5. Use Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS
The solution we came up with was to run Apache 2 with PHP 5 and run Apache 1 with PHP 4 on separate IPs. Ubuntu comes already with these packages. The only package we had to compile was eAccelerator. The following lists the steps taken to get this setup:
Apache 2 with PHP 5
* apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-php5 php5 php5-cli php5-curl php5-gd php5-mysql php5-dev make php5-mcrypt php5-imap
* vi /etc/php5/cli/php.ini and uncomment extension=mysql.so
