It is fast, secure, reliable, and can be easily customized depending on your needs. On top of that, it&#8217;s fairly easy-to-use, making it more accessible to<\/p>\n<p>To install Apache on your Ubuntu 18.04 server, run the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>sudo apt-get install apache2<\/pre>\n<p>Once the installation is complete, enable the Apache service to start automatically upon system boot. You can do that with the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>sudo systemctl enable apache2<\/pre>\n<p>To verify that Apache is running, open your web browser and enter your server&#8217;s public IP address, (e.g. <code>http:\/\/12.12.12.12<\/code>). If Apache is successfully installed, you should see a message saying &#8220;It works!&#8221;.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-3-Install-MySQL\"><\/span>Step 3: Install MySQL<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The next step is to install MySQL. It is one of the most popular database management systems and offers a lot of functionality with managing and configuring databases.<\/p>\n<p>To install MySQL on your system, type the following command and enter Y when prompted:<\/p>\n<pre>sudo apt-get install mysql-server<\/pre>\n<p>During the installation, you will be asked to enter a password for the MySQL root user. Make sure you enter a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/generate-password-linux-command-line\/\">strong password<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Once the installation is complete, in order to improve the security of your MySQL server, we recommend you to run the following script:<\/p>\n<pre>sudo mysql_secure_installation<\/pre>\n<p>First, you will be asked about setting up the validate password plugin.<\/p>\n<pre>Would you like to setup VALIDATE PASSWORD plugin?(Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) :<\/pre>\n<p>This plugin checks the strength of a password and allows the users to set only passwords which are secure enough.<br \/>\nWhether to enable this or not is entirely up to you, but do not forget to use strong passwords.<br \/>\nIf you choose &#8216;yes&#8217;, you will be asked to choose the level of the password validation policy:<\/p>\n<pre>There are three levels of password validation policy:\r\n\r\nLOW Length &gt;= 8\r\nMEDIUM Length &gt;= 8, numeric, mixed case, and special characters\r\nSTRONG Length &gt;= 8, numeric, mixed case, special characters and dictionary file\r\n\r\nPlease enter 0 = LOW, 1 = MEDIUM and 2 = STRONG:<\/pre>\n<p>Next, you will be asked to change the root password, but since we already created it during the MySQL installation, we can skip this step by pressing Enter.<\/p>\n<p>After this, you will get asked a couple of more questions and it is recommended that you answer &#8216;yes&#8217; to all of them:<\/p>\n<pre>Remove anonymous users? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) :\r\n\r\nDisallow root login remotely? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) :\r\n\r\nRemove test database and access to it? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) :\r\n\r\nReload privilege tables now? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) :\r\n<\/pre>\n<p>Again, we can enable MySQL to start on boot with the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>sudo systemctl enable mysql<\/pre>\n<p>That&#8217;s it MySQL has been installed and secured.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-4-Install-PHP\"><\/span>Step 4: Install PHP<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The last step in this tutorial is to install PHP.<\/p>\n<p>PHP is a programming language mostly used for developing dynamic websites.\u00a0 Ubuntu 18.04 comes with PHP 7.2 available for install in its default software repositories.<\/p>\n<p>We will also install some of the most common PHP modules:<\/p>\n<pre>sudo apt-get install php7.2 libapache2-mod-php7.2 php7.2-mysql php7.2-opcache php7.2-gd php7.2-curl php7.2-cli php7.2-imap<\/pre>\n<p>To test whether the PHP is working correctly we will create a file called info.php.
