====Project 3 - setting up a LAMP server on a VM====

====Objective==== 
Setup a Linux Apache2 Mysql and PHP server on a Virtual Machine.

====Prerequisites====
Linux VM server install
VM install

====background====
With virtualization we can make one system preform multipul services. A workstation can also be a web-server without the services ever overlapping and that's very powerful, minimalist and green.

====Procedures==== 

  - Before we begin let's update our packages with an <cli>root@awesomeso:~# aptitude update</cli> followed by an <cli>root@awesomeso:~# aptitude upgrade</cli>
  - We're going to get apache: <cli>root@awesomeso:~# apt-get install apache2</cli>
  - Then mysql: apt-get install mysql-server Once mysql installs we're going to configure it: <cli>root@awesomeso:~# mysql_secure_installation</cli> 
  - After you configure your Mysql with your proper credentials, let's login: <cli>root@awesomeso:~# mysql -u root -p</cli> Then we need to create a Database: </cli>create database dataBASE;</cli> followed by a: <cli>grant all on dataBASE.* to 'foreman' identified by '5t1ck';</cli> to grant permissions on Mysql
  - quit out of the Mysql shell and enter this command to grab some PHP goodies: <cli>root@awesomeso:~# apt-get install php5 php-pear php5-suhosin</cli> and: <cli>root@awesomeso:~# apt-get install php5-mysql</cli>
  - Finally we'll restart our apache server and everything should be working: <cli>root@awesomeso:~# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart</cli>

Enter your ip into a web browser and you should see great success!

====Conclusion====
So if everything went correctly you should have a full functional web server. Drop in an index.html you've built and you're good to go!
