Help Creating a Web server

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Hi

I'm having some problems with setting up phpmyadmin and mysql with Ubuntu and apache2. I think I've setup apache2 correctly... I can access the server on using the local ip but not using the static ip...I'm pretty sure i'm supposed to open some ports but I can't seem to find a config file for it like in windows....The whole purpose of this is to setup a phpbb forum. I followed this http://www.flexbeta.net/main/article...ge=1&pagenum=3 guide but got lost at "4. Test your installation by going into /var/www/phpmyadmin in Firefox and creating a database. You will need to log in with the user root and the password.." When I test that, all i get is the index of file :///var/www/phpmyadmin/, no gui to make a database..

Any help would be great.

Sounds like Apache isn't passing the php code through the interpreter module. Make sure php is installed correctly and being used by Apache. Alas, I haven't the time right now to help more, but hopefully that will give you somewhere to start.
