LAMP Stack with Vhosts and Git Setup Script

This script installs a LAMP stack, configures virtual hosts, and sets up Git for version control on your Ubuntu server. The script is reusable; simply change the domain name at the beginning of the script to set up new projects.

Instructions

1. Set the DOMAIN_NAME Variable

At the top of the script, set the DOMAIN_NAME variable to the desired domain name.

```bash DOMAIN_NAME="yourdomain.com" ```

2. Save the Script

Save the script as install_lamp_vhosts_git.sh:

```bash nano install_lamp_vhosts_git.sh ```

3. Make the Script Executable

Make the script executable by running:

```bash chmod +x install_lamp_vhosts_git.sh ```

4. Run the Script

Run the script to install and configure the LAMP stack, virtual host, and Git:

```bash ./install_lamp_vhosts_git.sh ```

Create a sample index.php file in the vhost directory

echo "" > /var/www/$DOMAIN_NAME/public_html/index.php

Create a new virtual host configuration file

VHOST_CONF="/etc/apache2/sites-available/$DOMAIN_NAME.conf"

echo "Creating virtual host configuration file..." sudo cat <<EOL | sudo tee $VHOST_CONF <VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin webmaster@$DOMAIN_NAME ServerName $DOMAIN_NAME ServerAlias www.$DOMAIN_NAME DocumentRoot /var/www/$DOMAIN_NAME/public_html ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

echo "Initializing a Git repository in the vhost directory..." cd /var/www/$DOMAIN_NAME/public_html git init echo "Initial commit" > README.md git add . git commit -m "Initial commit"

Test if Apache is running

APACHE_STATUS=$(systemctl is-active apache2) if [ "$APACHE_STATUS" = "active" ]; then echo "Apache is running successfully." else echo "Apache failed to start." fi

Test if PHP is working

PHP_TEST=$(curl -s http://$DOMAIN_NAME | grep -o "Hello, World!") if [ "$PHP_TEST" = "Hello, World!" ]; then echo "PHP is working correctly." else echo "PHP is not working. Please check your configuration." fi

Display MySQL root password and other details

echo echo "LAMP stack installation with vhosts and Git setup completed!" echo "MySQL root password: $MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD" echo "You can access your web server at: http://$DOMAIN_NAME/" echo "Your Git repository has been initialized in /var/www/$DOMAIN_NAME/public_html"

echo echo "NOTE: For security, consider creating a new MySQL user with limited privileges instead of using the root account for your web applications." ```

Notes

• This script is reusable for different projects. Just update the DOMAIN_NAME variable to match the domain you are working with.
• Ensure that your DNS is correctly configured to resolve the DOMAIN_NAME to your server.

Enjoy your LAMP stack setup with virtual hosts and Git!
