4. Install PHP

PHP (recursive acronym for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) is a widely used open-source general purpose scripting language that is especially suited for web development and can be embedded into HTML.

Install PHP with following command:

To test PHP, create a sample “testphp.php” file in Apache document root folder.

Add the following lines.

Restart apache2 service.

On Debian 8:

On Debian 7 and previous versions:

Navigate to http://server-ip-address/testphp.php. It will display all the details about php such as version, build date and commands etc.

If you want to install all php modules at once, enter the command apt-get install php* and restart the apache2 service. To verify the modules, open web browser and navigate to http://server-ip-address/testphp.php. You will able to see all installed php modules.

5. Manage MySQL Databases Using phpMyAdmin (Optional)

phpMyAdmin is a free open-source web interface tool used to manage your MySQL databases.

It is available in the Official Debian repositories.So install it with command:

Select the Web server that should be automatically configured to run phpMyAdmin. In my case, it is apache2.

The phpMyAdmin must have a database installed and configured before it can be used. This can be optionally handled by dbconfig-common.

Select ‘Yes’ to configure database for phpmyadmin wjth dbconfig-common.

Enter password of the database’s administrative user.

Enter MySQL application password phpmyadmin.

Re-enter the password.

Success! phpMyAdmin installation is installed.

Open terminal, and type:

Add the following line at the end.

Save and Exit. Restart apache service:

On Debian 7 and previous versions:

6. Access phpMyAdmin Web Console

Now, you can access the phpmyadmin console by navigating to http://server-ip-address/phpmyadmin/ from your browser.

Enter your MySQL username and password which you have given in previous steps. In my case its “root” and “debian”.

You will be redirected to PhpMyAdmin main web interface.

From now on, you can manage your MySQL databases from phpMyAdmin web interface.

That’s it. Your LAMP stack is ready to use.
