• Install LAMP server which is a common software stack of Linux with Apache, MySQL, and PHP (but also can refer to Perl/Python).

  $ sudo apt-get install tasksel

  or, possibly use:

  $ sudo apt-get install lamp-server

• Examine how Apache runs, can be managed as a service to "reload" or "restart", and how it works with PHP.
  • For most of this, having a full LAMP install saves a bit of configuration time to get running.
  • Apache site config file: https://gist.github.com/wrought/7296693 for /etc/apache2/sites-available/peoplesopen.loc
  • Need to enable site with:

    $ sudo a2ensite peoplesopen.loc

• Edit /etc/hosts file to include something like this line (unless you have a specific configuration):

  127.0.1.1 peoplesopen.loc

    $ sudo service nscd restart
