What is a LAMP Stack?

LAMP or LAMP stack is a very useful open-source development platform designed for Linux. 

LAMP stands for Linux as an OS, Apache as the webserver, MySQL as Relational DBMS and PHP as the scripting language.

Step 1: Update your system
sudo apt update -y
Step 2: Install Apache Webserver
sudo apt install apache2 -y

You can now start Apache by running below command:

sudo systemctl start apache2 && sudo systemctl status apache2
Step 3: Install MySQL
sudo apt install mysql-server -y

You can now start MySQL by running below command:

sudo systemctl start mysql && sudo systemctl status mysql

Step 4: Install PHP

Add apt repository and Update the System

sudo apt install software-properties-common -y && sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt update -y

Install the php 7.4 version with most required PHP modules for your website

sudo apt install php7.4 libapache2-mod-php7.4 php7.4-mysql php-common php7.4-cli php7.4-common php7.4-json php7.4-opcache php7.4-readline -y

Enable the Apache php7.4 module then restart Apache Web server.

sudo a2enmod php7.4 && sudo systemctl restart apache2

Check PHP version information.

php --version

Step 5: It’s also a good idea to enable services to automatically start at system boot time.
sudo systemctl enable apache2 && sudo systemctl enable mysql
