I am trying to configure LAMP on a local Ubuntu dev box. I cannot seem to find any reliable docs about:
How to configure MySQL login info to support WordPress, and
How to set up a database suitable for WordPress.
If I google WordPress, I get hundreds of commercial links selling themes, plug-ins, and what-not, but no concise configuration info.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
First, install lamp server and configure it: https://do.co/2P9WBxn
Then install WordPress: https://do.co/2vMnnDU

I developed a wordpress site locally using WAMP with MySQL ver. 5.6.17.
While trying to take the website live (using the Duplicator wp plugin), I am not able to as I got an error for version incompatibility.
The shared hosting that i have purchased to take the site live cant upgrade the MySql version from 5.5.36 to 5.6.n.
Is there something I can do now with the wp site locally developed to take it live? looking for any possible solutions...
Duplicator has a mode where it uses mysqldump to write out your database contents when preparing the package for duplication. That mode is enabled on Duplicator's settings page. If you write your package with that tool you may, or may not, be able to persuade your cheap and nasty hosting service to import it.
The reason for me posting this is I am really tired and wasted days trying to properly install a web server in amazon AWS Amazon Linux AMI 2015.03 (HVM), SSD Volume Type instance.
I have tried to install LAMP as mentioned in Tutorial: Installing a LAMP Web Server on Amazon Linux and found I am still not able to access PHPMyadmin.
Now for days I am trying to setup Apache, Apache Tomcat, MySQL, PhpMyAdmin and I always face troubles because 99% of the tutorials are written in 2012 and 100% outdated by now. Amazon tutorials are incomplete as they always are, so something is always left to find.I have almost opened and closed more than 4 instances, due to heavy "mess ups".
Can someone please point me to an "updated" tutorial which has the information of installing Apache, MySQL, PhyMyAdmin, PHP ? And of course I need to access these services from a URL, so remote access instructions also required.
Maybe you should consider running your setup on an Ubuntu instance, there are tons of tutorials for running a lamp stack on Ubuntu 14.04.
For instance, Digital Ocean Tutorials are a great resource: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-linux-apache-mysql-php-lamp-stack-on-ubuntu-14-04

I create Web role with Drupal from gallery. How to download database which created automaticaly?
I have't used Azure yet, but I think you can solve that easily by installing Adminer (free).
What is the best practice for creating an installer for a winform application.
The application is supposed to install the following without connecting to internet.
.Net Framework 3.5sp1
MySQL Server
My SQL Connector
Restore Mysql db
Update Config file with the MySQL uname/pwd.
I have all the msi files for installing the above mentioned items. But am wondering about the best practice to create the installer.
Thanks in advance,
Hi I came up with a similar situation. Firstly you should have .NET framework offline installer which can be downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=992cffcb-f8ce-41d9-8bd6-31f3e216285c. I assume you are using visual studio installer. There are couple of choices but I prefer to copy the offline .NET installer to the setup projects output directory and from requirements on target machine tab I set the install URL property of .NET framework the exact name of offline setup file. As described in the figure.
So the installer does not try to connect to a remote computer to download .NET framework and install it however I think it is more appropriate that it connects to a Microsoft server and installs it. Anyways the next step is to configure the MySQL server. MySQL is really generous for me since they support a fully documented noinstall files. You can find the document here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/windows-install-archive.html
Using a noinstall zip archive you can copy the dbengine core files to any folder on the clint machine. And change the configuration parameters of MySQL. You can name the MySQL service anything you want. Start the the service and create tables. You can do all of this stuff from custom actions tab of the setup project choosing the appropriate script files or you can write code for it. The beautiful thing is that your customer does not need to know that he/she is installing a database engine on the target machine. I hope this helps. Thanks.
Is this a right thing to do? I am using the Apache/Tomcat that comes with the liferay portal bundle and I used the MySQL that comes with WampServer at home but now I want to transfer my portal to a real Server and I wanted to know whether I could still use the Wamp's MySQL or should I install a real MySQL (What's the difference?)
Thanks in advance.
WAMPS MySQL server is not artificial, its the real deal. WAMP just bundles these softwares together and lets you deploy easily for development purposes. In a production environment you would deploy MySQL as a separate software and tweak it according to your needs. You CAN you WAMP on production environment, however you will need to make sure that you do not have any security flaws in there.
