A LAMP stack is a combination of at least 4 different technologies used in tandem to create a fully functioning web server or web application.
The complete components of a LAMP stack include:
Linux machine (Ubuntu)
Apache web server
MySQL database
PHP
The installation of this stack will be done using a executable bash script that can be used on any debian based linux distro.
First create a file named LAMP.sh which is the file where our bash script will be stored, and will also be later executed.
Next make the file executable by executing the following command
We can now begin scripting the installation file
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install -y mysql-server mysql-client expect apache2 php libapache2-mod-php php-mysql php8.2 php8.2-curl php8.2-dom php8.2-xml php8.2-mysql php8.2-sqlite3 php8.3 php8.3-curl php8.3-dom php8.3-xml php8.3-mysql php8.3-sqlite3
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
echo “Done with installations”
sudo systemctl start mysql.service
sudo systemctl start apache2.service
sudo expect <<EOF

send “0r”
}

send_user “Skipping VALIDATE PASSWORD section as it is already installed.n”
}
}
