How To: Install AMPPS Into Ubuntu / Xubuntu And Fix Post-Installation Problem

 

.

The Linux installation of AMPPS runs on a package manager. Below are the steps for successfully loading all elements onto your server.

1) Run "sudo apt-get update" to automatically update all existing software packages installed on Ubuntu.

2) Run "sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1 libxrender1" to add the necessary dependencies that are required for the AMPPS to proceed.

3) Run "wget http://s4.softaculous.com/a/ampps/files/Ampps-3.8-x86_64.run" to download and launch the AMPPS installer package directly from the Softaculous host. This may take a few minutes depending on your network speed.

4) Run "sudo chmod 0755 Ampps-3.8-x86_64.run" to allow your Ubuntu account to execute the installation steps.

5) Run "sudo ./Ampps-3.8-x86_64.run" to proceed through the setup wizard.

6) Run "/usr/local/ampps" to navigate to the root of the new AMPPS directory.

Run "sudo ./Ampps" to enable all AMPPS elements.

Once installation is complete, the individual AMPPS elements will be located in separate directories. Apache will be under "www", MySQL will be under "var", and PHP will be under "php-5".

If the following error is encountered when Ampps command above is executed

/usr/local/ampps/apache/bin/httpd: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/ampps/apache/lib/libapr-1.so.0: undefined symbol: dlopen

Try running update commands

1) cd /usr/local/ampps/apache/lib

2)sudo mkdir bck

3)sudo mv ./libapr* ./bck/

4)sudo apt-get -y install libaprutil1 libaprutil1-dev libapr1 libapr1-dev
