 |
|
Im not sure if I have just been looking in the wrong places, but I cannot find much info on how to setup Apache/MySQL/PHP... So far I have emerged apache, mysql, and mod_php, but I really don't know what to do from here. Can someone help or post a link please. My aim is to be able to host a website that uses php and mysql. Any suggestions would be GREAT!
[edit]Also, Im not sure if I was supposed to install in any order, or if i need to do anything specific other than emerge those seperatley... |

| well, now you just need to configure apache, just read the documentation, and start making php scripts. php's official website is an excellent resource for it, and its actually really easy...you can read there on how to interact with mysql if you so choose/need |

alright...I have everything installed (hopefully correctly) but when I set up a test page and then try to access it by:
| Code: |
http://localhost/
or
http://localhost/index.php
|
the apache server gives: "You don't have permission to access / on this server." The error is 403 Forbidden...any ideas about this? sorry for the "easy" questions, but im really new to this and am trying to get up to speed. |

check your apache error log (/var/log/apache2/error_log), could be one of two things:
1. index.php is not readable by apache (just chmod it something like 0644)
or
2. your apache conf is too restrictive, open /etc/apache/conf/commonapache2.conf and search for "<Directory />", something like this should work ok:
| Code: | ###
### This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to.
###
<Directory /usr/www>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride Options
<IfModule mod_access.c>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</IfModule>
</Directory>
you should check out the apache docs to see what all options mean, and tune them to your specific needs though |
EDIT: don't forget to restart apache when you change any of the apache conf files  |
