Installing PHP and Zend Framework on Ubuntu
I had a lot of trouble setting up Zend
Framework. The installation procedure is very simple, but making the
custom controllers and routes work isn't that easy.
Installing a PHP and Apache server on linux is very easy: just find and install the following packages (or open the terminal and run sudo apt-get package_name for each package):
apache2 php5The directory for websites should be located at /var/www/ and the configuration files for apache in /etc/apache2/ and for php5 in /etc/php5/. To install Zend Framework, install the following package:
zend-frameworkNow let's create a Zend project. Open the terminal and run:
zf create project path_to_project project_name
As described on official Zend Framework
site, you should create a virtual host for your zend project. This way,
you'll access the site at subdomain.localhost. Open /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default (which is a symlink to /etc/apache2/sites-available/default) and add the following lines:
NameVirtualHost *:80The AllowOverride All option allows URL rewriting, which is required by Zend Framework. You should enable the mod_rewrite apache2 module (by default is disabled). This can be done by:ServerName subdomain.localhost DocumentRoot /path/to/zend_project/public /path/to/zend_project/public> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews DirectoryIndex index.php AllowOverride All Order allow,deny Allow from all
cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled sudo touch rewrite.load sudo gedit rewrite.loadand add the following line to the opened file:
LoadModule rewrite_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_rewrite.soFinally, restart the apache2 server to enable the new settings:
service apache2 restart
