When I have installed Ubuntu Karmic on my laptop, I lost Lampp the application of web server and has included Apache2, Php5, MySQL and Phpmyadmin on Lampp. I need the application to finish my work making a web site. So, I decide to install another application except Lampp. I install Apache2, Php5, MySQL and Phpmyadmin on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic. This article will explain how to install Apache2, Php5, MySQL and Phpmyadmin on Ubuntu Karmic. Let's do it on Ubuntu Karmic.

Make sure your pc has connected on local or internet repository. We will need the ubuntu repository to install apache2, php5 and mysql on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic.

1. Install apache2.
   We will use the synaptic manager to install apache, cos Synaptic can help us to install apache2.
   
   • Go to System >> Administration >> Synaptic Package Manager, press Ctrl + F then type apache2.
     Select apache2 >> run.
   
   
   • Edit fqdn file to access your site. We usually use localhost to be connected on our site.
     
$ sudo pico /etc/apache2/conf.d/fqdn

     Copy bellow code then paste into fqdn
     
ServerName localhost

   
   
   
   • Check connection, Open your browser and go to http://localhost, If your browser displays as below, You has been successfully to installed apache2.
     
     
   
   
2. Install Php5.
   
   
   
   • Use Synaptic Package Manager
     We will do the same way like install apache2. Press Ctrl + F on Synaptic Package Manager then type php5. Select php5 >> run.
   
   
   • Activation of php5 via terminal
     
$ sudo a2enmod php5

   
   
   • Increase limit_memory
     Edit the /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini file and increase the memory_limit value. The default is 16M, I was changing 256M on memory_limit.
     
$ sudo gedit /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

     press Ctrl+F then type memory_limit on gedit
   
   
3. Install MySQL on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic
   
   
   
   • We will use terminal to install MySQL, please close your Synaptic Package Manager.
     
$ sudo apt-get install mysql-server libapache2-mod-auth-mysql php5-mysql

     Follow the instruction of MySQL until finish.
     
     
   • Install phpmyadmin through Synaptic Package Manger , so We can use MySQL via browser.
     
     
     
     • Search phpmyadmin on Synaptic Package Manager then select phpmyadmin.
       Configuration apache2.conf to use phpmyadmin via browser.
       
$ sudo gedit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

     
     
     • Insert bellow code into apache2.conf at bottom page.
       Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
