Debian Lamp Setup

Hi There,

I understand that you need information on the steps to setup Debian LAMP extras file for the Debian image similar to the help found with Amazon Linux 2 extras command "sudo amazon-linux-extras install -y lamp-mariadb10.2-php7.2 php7.2".

I have found that Debian setup differs as there is no straight forward command to setup LAMP[1] and to add the package repository to Debian[2] since debian does not support linux extras to say , below I outlined steps that can be followed to Install LAMP on Debian, further more you can follow the documentation [1].



1. Updating the Debian Linux, run:


 sudo -- sh -c 'apt update && apt upgrade'

2. Install Apache, execute: 


sudo apt install apache2

3. Update the Firewall and open port 80 and 443, run:

sudo ufw allow in "WWW Full"

4. Set up MariaDB:


 sudo apt install mariadb-server

5. Secure your MariaDB server, type:

   
sudo mysql_secure_installation

6. PHP installation: 


sudo apt install php libapache2-mod-php php-gd php-mysql

I hope you find this information helpful.

Have a great day ahead.
