OK Filling help tables... 100719 12:50:49 [Warning] '--skip-locking' is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please use '--skip-external-locking' instead. OK PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER ! To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands: /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password' /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h linux-xs8w.site password 'new-password' Alternatively you can run: /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation which will also give you the option of removing the test databases and anonymous user created by default. This is strongly recommended for production servers. See the manual for more instructions. You can start the MySQL daemon with: rcmysql start You can test the MySQL daemon with mysql-test package Please report any problems with the /usr/bin/mysqlbug script! Starting service MySQL done need to init root password by: # /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'shroot' enable mysql as service when boot: # chkconfig -l|grep mysql mysql 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off # chkconfig --add mysql mysql 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off
5) test apache+php+mysql
# cd /srv/www/htdocs # vi test.php
<php
phpinfo();
>Verify from web browser by:
http://localhost/test.php
You should see php, apache and mysql details.
6) install phpMyAdmin
download package phpMyAdmin-3.3.4-english.tar.gz from http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/downloads.php
# cd /srv/www/htdocs # tar zxpf /<path>/phpMyAdmin-3.3.4-english.tar.gz # mv phpMyAdmin-3.3.4-english phpMyAdmin # cd phpMyAdmin # cp config.sample.inc.php config.inc.php fill up the blowfish_secret for cookie, /* * This is needed for cookie based authentication to encrypt password in * cookie */ $cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'mysqladmin'; /* YOU MUST FILL IN THIS FOR COOKIE AUTH! */ then you can launch phpMyAdmin from web browser: http://localhost/phpMyAdmin
So far the complete apache+php+mysql is ready.
