Script to install LAMP (PHP 7) on Debian 9

In this article, I will guide you to use the script to install the LAMP on Debian 9. I have successfully tested this script on Debian 9.3 64bit. Just a few lines of code you can install the LAMP stack quickly.

Server resource requirements

Server requirements are as follows:

• OS: Debian 9.x (in my demo, i use 9.3 Stretch) 64 bit.
• RAM: over 1GB memory.
• HDD: Minimum 1-2 GB of free space.
• IP: static IP, for example: 192.168.56.31
• User: root

Script to install LAMP on Debian 9

This script will automatically install the necessary software of the LAMP stack, the software version as follows:

• Apache 2.4.25
• MariaDB 10.1.26
• PHP 7.0.27-0+deb9u1

Steps to use the script to install the LAMP stack are as follows.

Step 1, you download the script from my repository.

wget https://gitlab.com/Danny_Pham/WriteBash.com/raw/master/Install/03-Script_install_LAMP_PHP_7.0_on_Debian_9.sh -O /home/install.sh

Step 2, you have to grant permission 700 for this script.

chmod 700 /home/install.sh

And the last step, execute the script, noting that the script must be executed by the root user. Script will automatically update, add the necessary repository and install the package.

bash /home/install.sh

Depending on the speed of your internet connection, you may have to wait 10 to 15 minutes to complete the installation process.
