Docker LAMP

Mar, 2023

Install Docker

apt install docker docker-compose apt-utils

docker --version

docker run hello-world

Create a folder on desktop

cd ~/Desktop

mkdir docker-app

cd docker-app

Manage Docker as a non-root user otherwise you have to use sudo

# 1. Create the docker group.
$ sudo groupadd docker

# 2. Add your user to the docker group.
$ sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

# 3. Log out and log back in so that your group membership is re-evaluated.

# 4. Verify that you can run docker commands without sudo.
$ docker run hello-world

Now:

git clone https://github.com/sprintcube/docker-compose-lamp.git

cd docker-compose-lamp

cp sample.env .env

// modify sample.env as needed

docker-compose up -d

// visit localhost

Now Wait!

Restart apache service:

sudo systemctl restart apache2.service

Edit .env file and change ports (I set apache port to 8000. Goto:

localhost:8000

You should be greeted with the LAMP STACK page.

Create a test.php file inside the www folder within the docker-compose-lamp directory  with sample text and echo statement.

localhost:8000/test.php

If you rename or move sirectory just cd to that and run:

docker-compose up -d

Note: the hostname to connect to MySql is database
