To install FEMP in FreeBSD

FEMP is acronym for FreeBSD, Nginx, MariaDB, PHP. Nginx, MySQL and PHP can be combined together as a powerful solution for serving dynamic content on the web. Usually PHP based websites install FEMP for greater performance and low maintenance. In this article we will learn how to install FEMP in FreeBSD.

To install MySQL

Run the following command to install MySQL by using “ pkg install” command.

root@linuxhelp:~ # pkg install mysql56-server 
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...
FreeBSD repository is up-to-date.
All repositories are up-to-date.
Updating database digests format: 100%

************************************************************************

Remember to run mysql_upgrade the first time you start the MySQL server
after an upgrade from an earlier version.

************************************************************************

Enable and start the MySQL services by running the following command.

root@linuxhelp:~ # sysrc mysql_enable=yes 
mysql_enable:  ->  yes
root@linuxhelp:~ # service mysql-server start 
Starting mysql.

Next run “ mysql_secure_installation” command for basic configuration of mysql.

root@linuxhelp:~ # 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 should 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] y
New password: 
Re-enter new password: 
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 for
them.  This is intended only for testing, and to make the installation
go a bit smoother.  You should remove them before moving into a
production environment.
Remove anonymous users? [Y/n] y
 ... Success!
Normally, root should 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] y
 ... Success!
By default, MySQL comes with a database named ' test'  that anyone can
access.  This is also intended only for testing, and should be removed
before moving into a production environment.
Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n] y
 - 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] y
 ... Success!
All done!  If you' ve completed all of the above steps, your MySQL
installation should now be secure.
Thanks for using MySQL!

Make sure index.php is part of your DirectoryIndex.

You should add the following to your Apache configuration file:

< FilesMatch " .php$" > 
    SetHandler application/x-httpd-php

< FilesMatch " .phps$" > 
    SetHandler application/x-httpd-php-source

***************************************************************
Then copy the “ php.ini-production”  file to “ php.ini”

root@linuxhelp:~ # cp /usr/local/etc/php.ini-production /usr/local/etc/php.ini 
Open the “ php.ini”  file and change the value from 1 to 0 as shown below.

root@linuxhelp:~ # nano /usr/local/etc/php.ini

===================================================================
Recent version of the NGINX introduces dynamic modules support.  In
FreeBSD ports tree this feature was enabled by default with the DSO
knob.  Several vendor' s and third-party modules have been converted
to dynamic modules.  Unset the DSO knob builds an NGINX without
dynamic modules support.

To load a module at runtime, include the new `load_module' 
directive in the main context, specifying the path to the shared
object file for the module, enclosed in quotation marks.  When you
reload the configuration or restart NGINX, the module is loaded in.
It is possible to specify a path relative to the source directory,
or a full path, please see
https://www.nginx.com/blog/dynamic-modules-nginx-1-9-11/ and
http://nginx.org/en/docs/ngx_core_module.html#load_module for
details.

Default path for the NGINX dynamic modules is

/usr/local/libexec/nginx.
===================================================================

After installation, take the backup of default nginx cofiguration.
