:~$ sudo apt-get install php5 | |
That will install the latest available release of the PHP package. Next, you should verify the version running the following command: | |
:~$ php -v | |
Be sure you get at least the 5.4 release, otherwise Grav will not work. | |
PHP 5.6.4-4ubuntu6.2 (cli) (built: Jul 2 2015 15:29:28) | |
Copyright (c) 1997-2014 The PHP Group | |
Zend Engine v2.6.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2014 Zend Technologies | |

with Xdebug v2.2.6, Copyright (c) 2002-2014, by Derick Rethans | |
When the installed version matches the requirements, just install the following libraries, to complete the installation:: | |
:~$ sudo apt-get install php5-gd | |
:~$ sudo apt-get install php5-curl | |
:~$ sudo apt-get install php5-xsl | |
Now, just download Grav, unzip the package everywhere in your home folder, then enter that directory: | |
:~$ cd my/grav/installation/path | |
Next, run then the PHP internal web server as follows: | |
:~$ php -S localhost:8080 | |
Now open your favorite browser and point it to: | |
http://localhost:8080 | |
and you can start playing with Grav. | |
At last, if you need to run the Grav gpm system, just run it from your Grav installation path: | |
~$ bin/gpm |
