- 1. Forget MAMP and WAMP, Use Virtual Box to Have a Real Ubuntu Server DrupalCamp Wisconsin July 23 rd 2010
- 4. Drubuntu
- 5. LAMP
- 6. Why VirtualBox? Advantages: Cross-platform
- 7. Large user-base / documentation
- 8. You are using the real deal!
- 9. Difficulty
- 10. Networking
- 11. Why Drubuntu? Takes care of LAMP package installation
- 13. Cooking time Downloading and installing VirtualBox (30 minutes)
- 14. Downloading and installing Ubuntu (60 minutes)
- 15. Configuring LAMP (60 minutes)
- 20. Bridged vs. NAT NAT hides behind the IP address of the VM host
- 21. Bridged creates its own virtual network interface
- 22. Connecting to Your VM Add SSH to your ubuntu vm “apt-get install ssh”
- 23. If you are using bridged adapter type “ifconfig” to find your host ip address
- 24. ssh to your devm using that ip address (using putty in windows)
- 25. Port Forwarding If you are using NAT adapter in Windows you must use port forwarding to connect through ssh
- 26. For instructions google “ssh port forwarding virtualbox”
- 27. Package management in Ubuntu Using apt or aptitude
- 28. To get updates type “apt-get update” and “apt-get upgrade”
- 29. To install new packages type “apt-get” package-name
- 30. Installing Drubuntu See http://drupal.org/project/drubuntu
- 31. Copy and Paste “ wget 'http://drupalcode.org/viewvc/drupal/contributions/modules/drubuntu/drubuntu-bootstrap.sh?view=co' -Odrubuntu-bootstrap.sh ; cat drubuntu-bootstrap.sh ; read -n1 -p "Run above script? (y/n)" ; bash drubuntu-bootstrap.sh ”
- 32. Managing Your LAMP Webroot is /var/www
- 34. To access mysql type “mysql”
- 36. Installing Drupal on Your VM Go to webroot “cd /var/www”
- 37. Make sure you have ownership of webroot (root does by default)
- 38. “sudo chown username:username /var/www
- 40. Adding a database “mysql -e” from the command line
- 41. 'mysql -e “creat database NAME”'
- 42. “create user 'USERNAME'@'localhost' identified by PASSWORD”
- 43. “grant all privileges on *.* to 'USERNAME'@'localhost'”
- 45. Add Virtual Host Should be able to start off with http://vboxipaddress/folder
- 46. Virtual hosts allow you to user internal site names (ie mysite.local)
- 47. Add a Virtual Host cont. “cd /etc/apache/sites-available”
- 49. Update vhost file with internal hostname
- 51. change hosts file in host OS
- 52. What Does Drubuntu Do? LAMP Packages: curl php5-curl php5-xdebug php5-gd php-apc php5-mcrypt php5-dev php-pear libmagic-dev dnsmasq cvs subversion svn-load git-core bzr meld mysql-query-browser mysql-admin phpmyadmin ghex siege gworldclock konqueror wine cabextract opera google-chrome-beta
- 53. Running Headless Turn on: VBoxManage startvm VMNAME -type headless Turn off: VboxManage controlvm NMNAME poweroff
- 54. Using NAT with Host-only adapter Add network interface in ubuntu /etc/network/interfaces
- 55. Vim! Settings in /home/username/.vimrc
