I would never recommend that on Ubuntu or a Debain package based
systems. Use "sudo tasksel" and then select "LAMP Server".
Tasksel is a package management tool for the meta packages that
point to the most recent version of the software that exists in
the stack. That way you don't have to piece together PHP5, MySQL,
and Apache and their latest versions. Since learning about
tasksel I have been loving Ubuntu 9.10 server edition and rolling
out new instances.
Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I still install my server stack with
the old
./configure
make
make install
on both Linux and Mac machines. It certainly makes your machine grind
for a while, but it's not very intellectually challenge. It seems like
I often need to compile something a little weird into my PHP, and I
like the level of control over the configuration I get.
Now when I want to mess with the "AMP" stack on Windows, I use
XAMPP these days. I've never gotten around to figuring out how to build
the AMP stack on Windows.
