Have you ever wanted to setup a web server, but thought it would be costly and time consuming? If you thought this, things have changed. With the arrival of many modern SoC and ARM devices the abilitiy to cheaply and easily build, setup, and deploy a home web server has become easier than ever. Setting up a Raspberry Pi as a home web server is a great way to learn about web design and server administration. A Raspberry Pi uses much less power than a PC, and takes up much less space

Setup Web Server on Raspberry Pi:

Step 1 of 2: Start the Raspberry Pi Operating System and Login: Login to the Raspberry Pi. If you have not configured your Raspberry Pi please visit the following link if you need any assistance: How to setup and configure a Raspberry Pi.

Step 2 of 2: Install Apache, PHP, and MySQL .: This is a fairly straight forward task. Type "sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5 mysql-server mysql-client php5-mysql" in the terminal window.

Step 3 of 3: Restart the Apache and MySQL services and verify PHP is installed: Once installation is complete. Type "sudo service apache2 restart" then "sudo service mysql restart" in the terminal window. Next type "php --version" and "mysql--version" to ensure that the services are installed.
