Remastered Knoppix with apache and mod_php

**Stephan_M** · 02-10-2003, 10:54 PM

Hi Folks,
does anyone have a remastered Knoppix .iso (or a guide to make my own) with an apache server, mod_php and eventually mysql (LAMP) running for me? I need it to develop PHP Pages on a NTFS-System (that means i cannot create a swap-partition - only writing to /floppy)

Big thx,

Stephan

Hi Stephan,

the plain Knoppix has apache, php and mysql installed by default.
To get it running:
open a console
type "sudo su" to get root
type "apache" to start apache, HTML files are in /var/www
type "mysqld" to start apache
edit /etc/httpd.conf (delete the existing one and create a new one)

of course, all of the above can be included in a knoppx.sh script so that you don't have to do it over and over again.

Apache is already installed, all you need to do is apt-get install php, and you are done. Hopefully php will be added plus 50 of the best php applications.

As for a php knoppix, I don't believe there is one, but I could be wrong.

I use php with knoppix everyday.

Hmm, PHP would be fun in the morphix server module. Isn't even close to being workable, just gathering idea's and doing some initial installation, but every idea counts

*added to wishlist*

Yes, now it works!!
My problem was, that i only had a customized version of KNOPPIX (from a computer magazin) in which apache and mysql where missing. Now i get a complete Version and my server runs!

By the way... is there a version of PHPMyAdmin in KNOPPIX?

Big thanks to all!

It looks like Knoppix 6.0 no longer has Apache/PHP. It also appears to not have any compiler support (making it harder to build Apache/PHP/mySQL from Knoppix 6.0 on, say, a local harddrive or flash drive -- stuff I was hoping to do). Anybody have a way [i.e. know where Apache is hiding, or know of a compiler, or a version of Knoppix with all the latest web server goodies installed?)

I want to set up an Apache/PHP (and perhaps mySQL) test bed on an old laptop I have. I got this working with Knoppix ver 5.1.1 but it has PHP 4 and I want PHP 5.
