Install LAMP Server on CentOS

First check httpd service is running or not

           /etc/init.d/httpd status


if its running, its ok else need to start

          /etc/init.d/httpd start


after starting httpd(apache) need to install mysql server

          yum install mysql-server

Now you need to start mysql daemon
         
          /etc/init.d/mysqld start

Now, log in to the mysql using
         
          mysql -u root -p
by default mysql root user doesn't have any password, when it asks for password just press enter and you will be logged in to the database.

if you want to create a password for root user,

UPDATE mysql.user SET Password = PASSWORD('password') WHERE     User = 'username';

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

after installing mysql-server you need to install php,
for installing php need to download some RPM files which contains additional YUM repository definitions.

 (1) wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-5.rpm
 (2) wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/x86_64/epel-release- 5-4.noarch.rpm

Now, open the file remi.repo
      vi /etc/yum.repos.d/remi.repo

find the enabled option and set it to 1 and save it.

Now run command

yum install php php-cli php-gd php-mysql php-mbstring  php-mysql

now you're  done.

restart the daemon of httpd and check the version of php.

/etc/init.d/httpd restart
php -v or php --version
