Install the LAMP Stack
sudo apt install apache2 libapache2-mod-php php-xml php-mbstring php-apcu php-intl imagemagick inkscape php-gd php-cli php-cgi php mysql-server mysql-client php-mysql- Say Yes to Continue
- Configuring mysql-community-server (Doesn't happen on Mint 19.3)
- Pick a good root password...
- I tend to select Use Legacy Authentication Method because Use Strong Password Encryption is annoying as hell. (Your choice here...)
Configure MySQL
sudo mysql_secure_installation- Would you like to setup VALIDATE PASSWORD component?
- I select No (because I'd rather manage my own password policies, thanks...)
- Using existing password for root.
- Say No
- Remove anonymous users?
- Duh... Yes
- Disallow root login remotely?
- Your choice, but I tend to say No.
- Remove test database and access to it?
- Duh... Yes again.
- Reload privilege tables now?
- Yes
- Would you like to setup VALIDATE PASSWORD component?
- (Extra Instructions if you've never configured MySQL before)
& Test it
sudo vi /var/www/html/info.php
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
Browse to http://ServerAddress/ & you should see the default page.
Browse to http://ServerAddress/info.php & you should see a whole bunch of info about your PHP subsystem.
Set up at least one user in mysql
sudo mysql -u root -p
CREATE USER 'someone'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; EXIT;
(Hint: This'd be a good time to create yourself as that user with your non-admin password of choice...)
