Apache 2, MySQL 4.1 Alpha and PHP 4.3 on Red Hat Linux 9
Posted on Monday, April 21, 2003 @ 21:25:31 EDT by Prashant Somashekar








This guide will walk you through installing and minimally configuring Apache 2 web server, MySQL 4.1 Alpha database and PHP 4.3 on a Red Hat linux 9 computer.

Theses instructions should hold true for all Linux distros and most Unix variants.

In the above scenarios (mostly UNIX), there will be some minor differences, such as dependencies, but you can gauge what you need by the package names included, as well as other additions that will be made from the instructions below.

Let's get started...


Boot up (Start) your Red Hat linux 9 pc and get to a shell, or drop to a console (Ctrl-Alt-F2 (Ctrl-Alt-F7 will bring you back to X if you were originally there). Then either su - or login as root.

Note: Replace the statements in CAPS with the actual information. For example, EMAIL_ADDRESS would be replaced with your actual email address.

mkdir /packages
cd /packages

make sure you have wget installed:

which wget

if you do not see /usr/bin/wget , then:

ftp updates.redhat.com
logon: anonymous
password: EMAIL_ADDRESS
binary
prompt
cd 8.0/en/os/i386
get wget-1.8.2-5.i386.rpm
bye


rpm -ivh wget-1.8.2-5.i386.rpm


Note: For those without the Red Hat Linux 9 CDROM(s) in their posession->

Please read first before you start executing commands until you get to the ----->

The instructions below assume that if the main package is not installed, than dependencies are not either.

Make sure to check to see if you have any or all of the packages needed to be installed, otherwise you will have wasted time downloading things that you already have installed.

I also may have included 2 or 3 packages extra that may not need to be installed for this specific project, but it is good to have for future projects that you may encounter.

You can do a: rpm -qa | grep PACKAGE_NAME , and look for those packages installed starting with/ have PACKAGE_NAME in them.

For example, when looking at this line:

wget ftp://ftp.rutgers.edu/pub/redhat/linux/9/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/gcc-3.2.2-5.i386.rpm

if you wanted to check if you had the package installed, then you would: rpm -qa | grep gcc , and look for similar and or matching output to the version number 3.2.2-5.

For those with the CD's, you can insert the CDROM, and if it doesnt automount if for you, you can type: mount /mnt/cdrom . Then you can access the cd by: cd /mnt/cdrom , then ls (to list files).


make sure you have make installed:

which make

if you do not see /usr/bin/make , then (each line starting with wget is one whole line (wget following a space than the URL)):

wget ftp://ftp.rutgers.edu/pub/redhat/linux/9/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/make-3.79.1-17.i386.rpm

rpm -ivh make-3.79.1-17.i386.rpm


make sure you have gcc installed:

which gcc

if you do not see /usr/bin/gcc , then (each line starting with wget is one whole line (wget following a space than the URL)):

make sure you have libgcc:

rpm -qa | grep libgcc

if you do not see packages with libgcc on output, then (each line starting with wget is one whole line (wget following a space than the URL)):

wget ftp://ftp.rutgers.edu/pub/redhat/linux/9/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/glibc-2.3.2-11.9.i386.rpm

(each line starting with wget is one whole line (wget following a space than the URL))

(each line that is a command is one whole line before the start of a new line. Each command line that is long, has a doublespace before the new line to eliminate confusion (excluding the wget lines, as it was just mentioned above)
