LINUX configuration LAMP integrated environment XAMPP how to build, many novices are not very clear about this, in order to help you solve this problem, the following editor will explain in detail for you, people with this need can come to learn, I hope you can gain something.

XAMPP is a full-featured AMPP (Apache, MySQL, PHP, Perl) software package, which is one of several non-commercial AMPP middleware available on the Linux platform. With this tight integration, XAMPP can run anything from a personal home page to a full-featured product site (although this is for development purposes only; XAMPP is not yet suitable for use on a production server for security reasons).

XAMPP actually shines in the following areas:

Easy to install and set up.

Contains a number of useful software packages that simplify tasks such as generating traffic reports and accelerating PHP content.

Complete testing has been carried out on SUSE, Red Hat, Mandrake, Debian Linux distributions, and Windows ®and Solaris.

For this article, we will install XAMPP on Mandrake Linux 10.0. Now let's first look at the default packages available in XAMPP.

Basic software package

Basic software packages include system, programming, and server software:

Apache, the famous Web server

MySQL, an outstanding, free open source database

PHP, a programming language (versions 4.3.8 and 5.0.1 at the time of this writing)

Perl, a programming language

ProFTPD, a FTP server

OpenSSL, which can support secure socket layer

Graphic software package

XAMPP includes the following graphics-related software packages:

GD, "Graphics Draw" library

Libpng, the official PNG reference implementation library

Libjpeg, the official JPEG reference implementation library

Ncurses, character graphics library

Database software package

If you don't have the following database package, how can you call it integration software?

Gdbm, GNU implementation of the standard UNIX ®dbm library

SQLite, a fairly small SQL database engine that requires no configuration

FreeTDS, a database that allows UNIX and Linux programs to access Microsoft ®SQL and Sybase databases

XML software package

In order to develop XML programs, XAMPP should include the following software packages:

Expat, a XML parser library

Salbotron, a XML toolkit

Libxml, a XML C parser and GNOME toolkit

PHP software package

In order to develop PHP programs, XAMPP should include the following software packages:

PEAR,PHP library

A pdf class that can use PHP to generate dynamic PDF documents

TURCK MMCache, a PHP performance enhancer

Other software packages

Finally, the following software packages are included in XAMPP to demonstrate its power:

Zlib, a compression library

Mod_perl, which embeds a permanent Perl interpreter in Apache

Gettext, a toolset that helps GNU software packages generate messages in multiple languages

Mcrypt, an encryption program

Ming, a Flash (SWF) output library

Freetype2, a software front-end engine

IMAP C-Client, a mail programming API

Now let's talk about installing XAMPP.

Install and run as a daemon

To install XAMPP, download the latest binaries from the Apache Friends Web site (see Resources for a link). Unpack it to the / opt directory using the following command:

Tar xvfz xampp-linux-1.4.7.tar.gz-C / opt

okay! XAMPP is now installed in the / opt/lampp directory. Everything previously installed in the / opt directory has been overwritten. If you are running an older version of XAMPP and do not want to download the entire package again, an upgrade package is also available in Apache Friends to download the required package.

Now that all the software is installed, let's start a new daemon. Change the current working directory to / opt/lampp (cd / opt/lampp) and enter the following command:

. / lampp start

You should see the following results:

Starting XAMPP for Linux 1.4.7...

XAMPP: Starting Apache with SSL (and PHP5)...

XAMPP: Starting MySQL...

XAMPP: Starting ProFTPD...

XAMPP for Linux started.

XAMPP is up and running now. The best way to verify this is to open a browser and type localhost in the address bar and press enter. At this point, the browser is redirected to the welcome page of XAMPP.
