Installing Apache, PHP, MySQL and phpMyAdmin on Ubuntu 8.10

How to setup a web server on Ubuntu 8.10??
Now I'll be showing how to install Apache, php, MySQL and phpMyAdmin (one by one) on Ubuntu 8.10 using Terminal.

Installing Apache2
Open terminal to type this command

sudo apt-get install apache2

When the setup is complete you can check if the Apache is working properly by pointing your browser to http://localhost. If you see the text “It works!”, it means Apache is working.

Installing php5
sudo apt-get install php5

When setup is complete, you have to restart Apache so that php5 will work on Apache.

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Installing MySQL

sudo apt-get install mysql-server

Towards the end of the installation you will be prompted to set your root or admin password

Installing phpMyAdmin
phpMyAdmin is an interface for access mysql server. To install it, enter the following command from terminal

sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin

During the installation you will be asked to select the webserver that would be used to run phpMyAdmin. Select Apache2

Now you can go to the phpMyAdmin login page by pointing your browser to: http://localhost/phpmyadmin/index.php

I believed most of the Mac OS user see this screen before. Most of your will feel panic when u see this screen. After this screen appear, your just need to press power button off and on your Mac. Your system will back to normal. But i think your do not know what was happening. It is because the kernel of an operating system receives an instruction in an unexpected format, or that it fails to handle properly. A kernel panic may also follow when the operating system is not able to recover from a different type of error. A kernel panic can be caused by damaged or incompatible software or, more rarely, damaged or incompatible hardware.
