Apache, Samba and mysql

From ComputingPlugs

Jump to: navigation, search

Installing Apache, Samba and mysql is very easy, they are all in the repository. So just type:

apt-get install apache2 samba mysql-server mysql-client

The packages will be installed and there are already way too much documentations about setting up these servers so I will not go into them. They are standard Ubuntu packages in case you need to locate their config files.

    After following your instructions, I get the following error:

    Could not open lock file /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (2 No such file or directory)

    Any idea why?

    thanks,

    Eric

    sounds similar to the apt-get problem listed here: http://computingplugs.com/index.php/Fixing_apt-get. Try that and see if it works.

    Trying to setup samba got the following error

    smbpasswd -a smbuser

    New SMB password:

    Retype new SMB password:

    ltdb: tdb(/var/lib/samba/group_mapping.ldb): tdb_mmap failed for size 77824 (Invalid argument)

    and the password is not appended to passwd file, any suggestion

    how to proceed?

    Have you done any optimization of mysql or php caching to speed up your hosting? I recently installed apache/mysql/php on my tonido plug and page loads using wordpress are horribly slow. I'm wondering if I need to kill the tonido software, or if you've done something else to get mediawiki running rather well.

  • Kenny Says:

    no, I have not done any optimization on system. It is pretty much a stock setup from apt-get.

    I have a blog that is hosted on the same sheevaplug as computingplugs which runs wordpress. You can take a look at it and see if it is faster than your setup. The address is http://frustratedastronomer.com/

  • MM Says:

    Interesting. Seems marginally faster. I'm planning on trying the myriad of wordpress caching options to see if I get better performance out of my sites, thanks for the info!
