Dell PowerEdge C6220 and CentOS 6.2: A LAMP Reference

Architecture

PHP

PHP is a Web scripting language that can be embedded into HTML source

documents instead of using an external file to process data. The Web server interprets

the PHP code to generate a Web page. For more information about PHP, visit

http://www.php.net/.

Installation procedure

Installing Apache Web Server

1. Log onto the CentOS server as root.

2. Install the Apache Web Server application packages and their dependencies:

yum install @web-server

Installing MySQL Database

1. Log in as root.

2. Install the MySQL application packages and their dependencies

yum install @mysql @mysql-client

Installing PHP Scripting Language

1. Install the application packages and their dependencies:

yum install @php php-mysql

Testing with a sample LAMP application

To complete the LAMP deployment, we create a sample LAMP application

consisting of a test database with test data, a PHP script which creates a dynamic Web

page that prints the contents of a SQL query from the database. In this case, we

demonstrate using the well-known “Hello World” example.

1. Log onto the CentOS server as root.

2. Start the MySQL database instance.

service mysqld start

chkconfig mysqld on

3. Run the mysql_secure_installation utility to modify MySQL’s default settings

and set the instance’s root password to “RootPassword” (It is initially

unset).

mysql_secure_installation

4. Using the mysql client, create a test database, a test application user, and

set privileges:

mysql --user root --password=RootPassword

mysql> USE mysql;

1 2 ... 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 ... 25 26
