docker-lamp-base

A basic LAMP image for dependant images such as dell/wordpress.

This blueprint installs a basic LAMP stack - a popular combination of open source software components, used to build dynamic web sites.

Components

The stack comprises the following components:

Name	Version	Description
Ubuntu	Trusty	Operating system
MySQL	5.5	Database
Apache	latest	Web server
PHP	latest	Scripting language

Usage

Basic Example

Start your image binding host port 8080 to port 80 (Apache Web Server/HTTP), 443 to 443 (Apache Web Server/HTTPS) and 3306 to 3306 (MYSQL) in your container:

sudo docker run -d -p 8080:80 -p 3306:3306 -p 443:443 dell/lamp-base

Test your deployment:

curl http://localhost:8080/

Administration

Connecting to MySQL

The first time that you run your container, a new user admin with all privileges will be created in MySQL with a random password. To get the password, check the logs of the container.

sudo docker logs <container_id>

You will see some output like the following:

===================================================================
You can now connect to this MySQL Server using:

    mysql -u admin -p47nnf4FweaKu -h<host> -P<port>

Please remember to change the above password as soon as possible!
MySQL user 'root' has no password but only allows local connections
===================================================================

In this case, 47nnf4FweaKu is the password allocated to the admin user.

Remember that the root user has no password but it's only accessible from within the container.

You can now test your deployment:

 mysql -u admin -p47nnf4FweaKu -h127.0.0.1 -P3306

Connecting to MySQL from the Application

The bundled MySQL server has a root user with no password for local connections. Simply connect from your PHP code with this user:

<?php
$mysql = new mysqli("localhost", "root");
echo "MySQL Server info: ".$mysql->host_info;
?>
