Type (in terminal): sudo tasksel
Select LAMP server and press enter. It will ask you
for a MySQL root password. That's it.

that was going to be my next blog. well, that and a few extras.
but thanks for mentioning it. i sort of knew someone would point it out.
now i will say i have had some issues with that install method hanging a lot. but when it doesn't hang, it is a very simple means of installing LAMP.

I typed "tasksel" in a terminal and it came back with a list and just do the up and down arrows and space bar to pick what ones to install.
Looked like this:
Package configuration
?????????????????????????? Software selection ??????????????????????????
? You can choose to install one or more of the following predefined ?
? collections of software. ?
? ?
? Choose software to install: ?
? ?
? [ ] Basic Ubuntu server ? ?
? [ ] DNS server ?? ?
? [ ] Edubuntu server ? ?
? LAMP server ? ?
? [ ] Mail server ? ?
? OpenSSH server ? ?
? [ ] PostgreSQL database ? ?
? [ ] Print server ? ?
? Samba file server ? ?
? ?
? ?
? ?
? ?
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Press the down arrow and it goes down the list showing more. Press the tab so it goes to the OK and press Enter on it to exit and it does nothing if you did not make a * with the space bar on any thing.
Stuff like this is why Ubuntu is a good Linux and why I use it.

It would be considerably easier, since you're using apt-get, to run the following:
sudo apt-get install lamp-server^
sudo apt-get install lamp-server^
Yeah but how much of a blog post would you
get with that?
Another really quick way to install LAMP with
a really fresh install is to use the Ubuntu
Server distribution and checking in that you
want LAMP when you install. Ah the ease of
Linux!

Install Ubuntu you can pick LAMP that = Linux Apache, MySQL, PHP that start of all them letters.
That's what so good about Ubuntu it will ask if you want a LAMP server. If you did not pick that can install them later with some command shown here.

From a lot of experience (though with Mandriva) it is a good idea to install and get apache working first, before installing the others. Never figured out why, but every failed install I've experienced I'd installed everything all at once, or loaded MySQL and/or PHP first...
you need to edit your test code for php5. Left me puzzled for hours until I figured it out. It should be:
Your code reads: ?php when it should be ?php
Your code reads: ?php when it should be ?php
I'm surprised the one angle bracket even shows up, but you may have used an entity for that?
you use an appeals to appliance users distro to deploy a web server?
That's like that IIS cut down they did for windows 95.
Personal web services, wasn't it?
