To Install LAMP On Oracle Linux

Introduction:

LAMP is a set of open source software, used to build web servers and web application development.

• L = Linux Operating System

• A = Apache HTTP Server

• M = MySQL database management system

• P = Php programming language

Installation Steps:

Step 1: check the OS version by using the below command

[root@linuxhelp ~]# cat /etc/os-release 
NAME="Oracle Linux Server"
VERSION="8.4"
ID="ol"
ID_LIKE="fedora"
VARIANT="Server"
VARIANT_ID="server"
VERSION_ID="8.4"
PLATFORM_ID="platform:el8"
PRETTY_NAME="Oracle Linux Server 8.4"

Step 2: Install http web server by using the below command

[root@linuxhelp ~]# yum install httpd httpd-tools
Package                       Architecture      Version                                                 Repository                    Size

Step 3: Start the http server by using the below command

[root@linuxhelp ~]# systemctl start httpd

Step 4: Enable the Http service by using the below command

[root@linuxhelp ~]# systemctl enable httpd
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/httpd.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.service.
Step 5 : check the status of httpd service
 [root@linuxhelp ~]# systemctl status httpd
● httpd.service - The Apache HTTP Server

Step 8: Enable the database service by using the below command

[root@linuxhelp ~]# systemctl enable mariadb
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/mysql.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service.
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/mysqld.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service.
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/mariadb.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service.

Step 9: Check the status of MariaDB service by using the below command

[root@linuxhelp ~]# systemctl status mariadb
● mariadb.service - MariaDB 10.3 database server
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
   Active: active (running) since Fri 2021-11-26 08:38:55 IST; 30s ago

   Memory: 195.9M
   CGroup: /system.slice/mariadb.service
           └─33951 /usr/libexec/mysqld --basedir=/usr

Step 10: configure the database by using the below command

[root@linuxhelp ~]# mysql_secure_installation 

NOTE: RUNNING ALL PARTS OF THIS SCRIPT IS RECOMMENDED FOR ALL MariaDB
      SERVERS IN PRODUCTION USE!  PLEASE READ EACH STEP CAREFULLY!
In order to log into MariaDB to secure it, we'll need the current
password for the root user.  If you've just installed MariaDB, 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...
Thanks for using MariaDB!
