CentOS 6.0 was released soon. now let's learn how to install Apache2 + PHP5 + MySQL web server on CentOS 6.0.

1. important:

In this tutorial, the host name is server1.example.com and the IP address is 192.168.0.100. These settings are different from the specific installation settings, so you must replace them during your installation.

2. install MySQL 5.0

Open the terminal and enter:

Yum install mysql-server

Create a system startup link for MySQL (MySQL will automatically start when the system starts) and enter the following command on the terminal:

Chkconfig -- levels 235 mysqld on

/Etc/init. d/mysqld start

 

Set the password for the MySQL root account:

Mysql_secure_installation

Terminal Display, follow the prompts:

[Root @ server1 ~] # Mysql_secure_installation

NOTE: running all parts of this script is recommended for all MySQL

Servers in production use! Please read each step carefully!

In order to log into MySQL to secure it, we'll need the current

Password for the root user. If you 've just installed MySQL, and

You haven't set the root password yet, the password will be blank,

So you shoshould just press enter here.

Enter current password for root (enter for none ):

OK, successfully used password, moving on...

Setting the root password ensures that nobody can log into the MySQL

Root user without the proper authorisation.

Set root password? [Y/n] <-enter

New password: <-set a user password

Re-enter new password: <-enter your password again

Password updated successfully!

Reloading privilege tables ..

... Success!

By default, a MySQL installation has an anonymous user, allowing anyone

To log into MySQL without having to have a user account created

Them. This is intended only for testing, and to make the installation

Go a bit smoother. You shoshould remove them before moving into

Production environment.

Remove anonymous users? [Y/n] <-enter

... Success!

Normally, root shoshould only be allowed to connect from 'localhost'. This

Ensures that someone cannot guess at the root password from the network.

Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n] <-enter

... Success!

By default, MySQL comes with a database named 'test' that anyone can

Access. This is also intended only for testing, and shocould be removed

Before moving into a production environment.

Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n] <-enter

-Dropping test database...

... Success!

-Removing privileges on test database...

... Success!

Reloading the privilege tables will ensure that all changes made so far

Will take effect immediately.

Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n] <-enter

... Success!

Cleaning up...

All done! If you 've completed all of the above steps, your MySQL

Installation shoshould now be secure.

Thanks for using MySQL!

[Root @ server1 ~] #

3. installed Apache2

Yum install httpd

Configure the system to automatically start apache at startup

Chkconfig -- levels 235 httpd on

Restart apache:

/Etc/init. d/httpd start

In your browser, visit http: // 192.168.0.100. you should see the page of apache2:

 

In CentOS, the default Apache document root directory is/var/www/html, and the configuration file/etc/httpd/conf/httpd. conf. Other configurations are stored in the/etc/httpd/conf. d/directory.

4. Installing PHP5

We can install the PHP5 and Apache PHP5 modules with the following command:

Yum install php

After the installation is complete, you must restart Apache

/Etc/init. d/httpd restart

5. test PHP5/obtain the installation details of PHP5

The default document root directory/var/www/html for the Web site. Now we will create the PHP probe file (info. php) in this directory and call it in the browser. This file will show a lot of useful details, look at the installation of the php module we installed completed.

Vi/var/www/html/info. php

Open the file in the browser (for example, http: // 192.168.0.100/info. php ):

 

As you can see, PHP5 works normally. if you continue to scroll down, you will see all modules that have been enabled in PHP5. Without MySQL, this means that we do not have MySQL support modules in php5.

6. add MySQL support in PHP5

Yum search php

Select the modules you need and install them:

Yum install php-mysql php-gd php-imap php-ldap php-mbstring php-odbc php-pear php-xml php-xmlrpc

Restart Apache2 now

/Etc/init. d/httpd restart

7. install phpMyAdmin to manage the database

PhpMyAdmin is a Web interface that allows you to manage your MySQL database.

First, we make sure that the RPMForge software library phpMyAdmin of our CentOS system is the official CentOS 6.0 Library:

Import the GPG Key of rpmforge:

Rpm -- import http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt

X86_64 system installation command:

Yum install http://pkgs.repoforge.org/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm

I386 system installation command:

Yum install http://pkgs.repoforge.org/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.i686.rpm

You can install phpMyAdmin as follows:

Yum install phpmyadmin

Now, we configure phpMyAdmin. Change Apache configuration to connect phpMyAdmin, not just from localhost (comment out allow ):

Vi/etc/httpd/conf. d/phpmyadmin. conf

#

# Web application to manage MySQL

#

#

# Order Deny, Allow

# Deny from all

# Allow from 127.0.0.1

#

Alias/phpmyadmin/usr/share/phpmyadmin

Alias/phpMyAdmin/usr/share/phpmyadmin

Alias/mysqladmin/usr/share/phpmyadmin

Next, we change the authentication cookie in phpMyAdmin, HTTP:

Vi/usr/share/phpmyadmin/config. inc. php

[...]

/* Authentication type */

$ Cfg ['servers'] [$ I] ['auth _ type'] = 'http ';

[...]

Restart Apache:

/Etc/init. d/httpd restart

Then, you can access phpMyAdmin http: // 192.168.0.100/phpmyadmin/to manage the database:
