LAMP with piCore-8.0

[bmarkus]

Now you can setup a LAMP environment with piCore-8.0, all necessary components are available in the repo:

- apache2.4
- mariadb (replacing MySQL)
- apache2.4-mod-php5 or apache2.4-mod-php7

Just tested, Joomla-3.5.1 runs fine with php7 on RPi3. If you try it, please share your findings. Other PHP apps my require different PHP settings or modules which are not built yet.

phpMyAdmin and Wordpress also working.

SMF doesn't find SQL driver, will fix in next round.

[bmarkus]

apache2.4-mod-php5.tcz updated with more MySQL drivers.

Hello Bela,
In Joomla setup on the second page database configuration, whats the password to Mariadb? Is it the same as when I log in with tc? I put user as root. It just says "Could not connect to MySQL".
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Before installing Joomla create a new database for Joomla and create a user with a password as usual with MySql.

Dont forget to make database persistent.

Hello Bela Markus,

Thank you in advance!
