Hi...
Let's be a bit more objective... LAMP means Linux + Apache + MySQL + PHP.
At this point, you have the 'L' running.
Is Apache running too ? If so, create a simple file called test.php with the
following content:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
Put this file in the Apache's DocumentoRoot directory.
Open your browser and point it to the url
http://yourserver.yourdomain/test.php
A page generated by PHP should appear showing you how PHP was compiled, how
it is configured and what does it support (png, jpeg, zlib, ...)
If all these steps run ok, then you have L, A and P running.
Next step is to check your MySQL server installation and settings.
Take a look at the log files... they usually have helpfull information of
what is going on.
Good luck,
Ricardo 'j0k3r' Dalceno
