i'm not an expert on linux/centos, but i play with it and have a general idea. it's time for me to setup a centos box for development. i rarely install anything from source, except a few times in college when i have to modify kernel for OS project. but i guess i can learn now.
i just installed centos 5 with minimal installation. next step is to install LAMP w/ SSL.
i found http://lamphowto.com/lampssl.html, but i have questions before i proceed.
is it better to install from source or rpm? how easy it is to upgrade/update if install from source? it seems so much easy to upgrade/update from rpm, well b/c i'm always do this way.
is there any other instruction (beside the one mentioned above) to install LAMP w/ SSL?
appreciate your help/suggestion t. hiep
It's better to stick to the RPMs to make it easier to upgrade. If you want an easy way to install LAMP you can run 2 commands
yum -y groupinstall "Web Server" yum -y install mysql-server php-mysql
This will get Apache, MySQL, and PHP all installed.
all done. now, how do i force apache & mysql servers start up whenever the box boot?
I would suggest reading the Deployment Guide (http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.1/Deployment_Guide/) which will answer many of these questions.
A place for you to start on this particular question would be the man page of the chkconfig command.
thank you everyone for helping. done with installation, now move on to configuration.
i try to access web server (10.0.0.160), but couldn't found. so check to see if httpd is running or not.
