Whilst we’re here, you also need to integrate PHP into the Apache server so that PHP files will be prioritized.
This time, the command is as follows: sudo apt-get install php5 libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mcrypt You guessed it time for more commands! Much like with the MySQL command, we’ve included some really nifty helper packages, so don’t worry about setting up a server with limited resources.
This will perform a number of incredibly useful tasks, such as processing code and passing it to your web server to display. You’re on the final package of LAMP installation now you need to install PHP.
Sudo apt update Give the new account root privileges Test if the new user has the root privileges granted, by logging in to the system and run the apt update command prefixed with sudo. Sudo command must be used before writing the command needed for execution, as shown in the below example. sudo usermod -a -G sudo ubuntu_userīy default, all users belonging to the “ sudo” group are allowed to execute commands with root privileges via sudo utility. To grant this new user account with administrative privileges you should add the user to “ sudo” system group by issuing the below command. In order to create a new account on the system, log in to the system with the account user with root privileges and create a new account with the below command.įor now, the new added user cannot perform administrative tasks via sudo utility. sudo adduser ubuntu_userīy default, as a security measure, the root account is completely disabled in Ubuntu. Follow the adduser prompt to setup the user details and password.
Make sure you setup a strong password to protect this account. This is due to deploying ProposedMigration in the Ubuntu archive.This new account will be granted with root powers privileges via sudo command and will be used to perform administrative tasks in the system.
Because these two areas of development are relatively new, they still require new features to satisfy the original reasons for their creationĬutting Edge: Starting with the 14.04 LTS development cycle, automatic full package import is performed from Debian unstable 1ġ.
Exceptions for priority projects will be documented.Ģ. More Tested: We will shorten the development window and extend the Beta cycle to allow for more testing and bug fixingĪ Feature-Based Release: We will focus on hardening functionality of existing features, versus introducing new ones 1, except for in the areas of Online Services and Desktop Experience 2.ġ. We will choose which features we package into the LTS release, versus which ones we leave out and allow for users to optionally download and use from a separate archive.Īvoid structural changes as far as possible, such as changing the default set of applications, lots of library transitions, or system layer changes (example: introducing KMS or hal → DeviceKit would not have been appropriate changes in a LTS).Įnterprise Focused: We are targeting server and multiple desktop installations, where the average user is moderately risk averse.Ĭompatible with New Hardware: We will make point releases throughout the development cycle to provide functional support for new server and desktop hardware. We start stabilising the release early by significantly limiting the number of new features.To see the latest information on releases, please look at Ubuntu release end of life page on Release Plan Details The project will decide which flavours will be LTS and the support duration for each, early in the LTS development cycle. In 10.04, the Netbook Edition was not an LTS. For example, for 8.04 LTS, Kubuntu chose to move to KDE 4.0 and didn't issue an LTS release. The LTS may not apply to all flavours and remixes of Ubuntu. The LTS designation applies only to specific subsets of the Ubuntu archive.
Upgrades to new versions of Ubuntu are and always will be free of charge. There is no extra fee for the LTS version we make our very best work available to everyone on the same free terms. Starting with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, both versions received five years support. In previous releases, a Long Term Support (LTS) version had three years support on Ubuntu (Desktop) and five years on Ubuntu Server.
You get free security updates for at least 9 months on the desktop and server.Ī new LTS version is released every two years. Ubuntu is designed with security in mind. That means you'll always have the latest and greatest applications that the open source world has to offer. We produce a new Ubuntu Desktop and Ubuntu Server release every six months. LTS is an abbreviation for “Long Term Support”.
