I have the goal of starting and running a LAMP server with the goal of running a Drupal site, maybe Wordpress.
I haven't even gotten through the apache step. I used sudo apt-get install apache2-bin
, which was suggested by terminal. Online recommends sudo apt-get install apache2
, without the -bin.
$ apache2 -v
Server version: Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu)
http://localhost/
yields; Unable to connect Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost.
http://my-ip-address
(from icanhazip.com) just thinks and thinks, completes nothing, blank page
$ sudo service apache2 restart
Apache2: unrecognised service
$ sudo apache2ctl graceful
sudo: apache2ctl: command not found
$ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload
sudo: /etc/init.d/apache2: command not found
$ sudo start apache2
start: Unknown job: apache2
$ sudo restart apache2
restart; unknown job apache2
It seems installed, but not operational, any suggestions?
Thanks in advance...
Edit: I don't know what I am doing, so I will pretend I am at reddit. I solved this problem with a simple solution, of adding servername.conf
, but then it didn't work again, backed up by purging and reloading, but I do not have enough reputation to say this. Thanks
