Requirements

Before going through this tutorial, I recommend you to setup:

Installation

Apache 2

This will install web server + PHP + Perl + all required libraries.

Apache2 core

apt install apache2 apache2-utils 
apt install ssl-cert

Since Ubuntu 16.04 apache2-mpm-prefork is not required

Doc

apt install apache2-doc

Perl

apt-get install libapache2-mod-perl2 libapache2-mod-perl2-doc

SNMP

Sometimes you might encounter some SNMP errors on latest Debian based distributions.

In that case you have to install a new package and run it.

apt-get install snmp-mibs-downloader
download-mibs

source: http://www.podciborski.co.uk/miscellaneous/snmp-cannot-find-module/

PHP 8

2021-11: PHP 8 is not included in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

Source article: http://www.daxiongmao.eu/wiki/index.php?title=Apache_2&action=edit

Add PHP 8.0 repository

apt install software-properties-common
add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
apt update

Install core packages

To install the latest version of PHP:

# PHP core
apt-get install php
apt-get install php-cli
# Apache2 support
apt install libapache2-mod-php

Modules PHP

apt-get install php-cgi 
#apt-get install php-opcache
apt-get install php-gd 
apt-get install php-bz2 
apt-get install php-curl 
apt-get install php-xmlrpc
apt-get install php-json 
apt-get install php-mysql 
apt-get install php-imap 
apt-get install php-mbstring
# Performances
apt install php-fpm libapache2-mod-fcgid

Enable modules

sudo a2enmod proxy_fcgi setenvif
sudo a2enconf php8.0-fpm

Utility

apt install php-pear

Configuration

Edit PHP config file:

vim /etc/php/8.0/cli/php.ini

Let CGI behaves like before: set cgi.fix_pathinfo=1
Adjust file upload size upload_max_filesize = 32M
Adjust post size post_max_size = 32M
Adjust time zone date.timezone = Europe/Paris
Save path: session.save_path = "/tmp"

Check PHP version and configuration

To ensure PHP 8.0 is well-installed just type:

php -v

Image Magick

apt install php-gd php-imagick imagemagick

Configuration

Edit PHP config file:

vim /etc/php/8.0/apache2/php.ini

Add / uncomment the following lines in Dynamic extensions area

// PHP 8  (~ line 904)
extension=bz2
extension=curl
extension=gd
extension=imap
extension=mysqli

!! Note this is NOT required on Ubuntu 20.04 because these modules are enabled by default !!

Firewall

see Firewall INPUT filters#Web server

Restart the firewall

/etc/init.d/firewall restart

Test your installation

Restart the Apache2 server

service apache2 restart

Create a simple PHP script

vim /var/www/html/phpinfo.php

Put the following:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

Adjust rights

chown www-data:www-data /var/www/html/phpinfo.php
chmod 755 /var/www/html/phpinfo.php

You can now test your installation by going to 'http://localhost/phpinfo.php' or 'http://myServer/phpinfo.php'. You should see the default page.

+Create a simple PHP script
-=Apache 2 configuration # Redirect HTTP to HTTPS=
-The safer way to redirect HTTP to HTTPS is use to adjust the virtual host configuration.
-Edit configuration
 <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
-vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/myServer
+vim /var/www/html/phpinfo.php
 </syntaxhighlight>
-Make it looks like:
+Put the following:
-<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+<syntaxhighlight lang="php">
-<VirtualHost *:80>
+<?php
-	ServerAdmin guillaume@qin-diaz.com
+phpinfo();
+?>
-	ServerName dev.daxiongmao.eu
-	ServerAlias *.dev.daxiongmao.eu dev.qin-diaz.com www.dev.qin-diaz.com
-	### LOG ###
-	ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/daxiongmao/error.log
-	LogLevel warn
-	CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/daxiongmao/access.log combined
-	## Redirect all traffic to HTTPS website
-	redirect permanent / https://myServer/
-	## No need of a document root anymore as everything is redirect
-</VirtualHost>
 </syntaxhighlight>
-You can remove:
+Adjust rights
-* Document root
-* CGI url
-* All the alias
-Restart your server
 <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
-service apache2 restart
+chown www-data:www-data /var/www/html/phpinfo.php
+chmod 755 /var/www/html/phpinfo.php
 </syntaxhighlight>
+You can now test your installation by going to 'http://localhost/phpinfo.php' or 'http://myServer/phpinfo.php'. You should see the default page.
-=Apache 2 # redirections using mod_proxy=
-Thanks to Julien Rialland for his insight regarding this part!
-==Principle==
-The proxy module allow you to redirect remote user to a specific server that can be host on a different machine or port through a clear URL.
-===Current limits===
-Some application are not available from outside…
-For security reasons [default URL is not allowed]
