npmanager

npmanager is the super easy way to install and manage NGINX, PHP and MariaDB on your debian-based linux server.

Prerequisite for installation

• You need a debian-based linux distribution – I recommend you to get Ubuntu LTS releases.
• This requires up to 1GB of data, and up to 500MB of space for its operation.
• Python is needed – You don't need to install python at all to get started on Ubuntu.

npmanager does not support the end-of-life Ubuntu releases.

What's inside?

• NGINX (stable or dev)
  • includes simple performance tweak by configuration
• PHP (5.5 or 5.6)
  • php5-cli
  • php5-fpm
  • php5-gd
  • php5-mcrypt
  • php5-tidy
  • php5-curl
  • php5-xdebug
  • php5-sqlite
  • php5-intl
  • php5-mysql
  • php5-apc (for performance improvements)
• MariaDB (stable only)

Installation

This installation guide is written as if Ubuntu 14.04 LTS was just installed.

Text guide

Tip: The dollar sign($) just means you are a normal user. I would recommend login as a normal user to work, and use sudo command instead of login as root(#).

$ sudo apt-get install python-pip -y
$ sudo pip install npmanager
$ sudo npmanager install
If you want to continue press RETURN(Enter) key or CTRL + C to exit:  # press enter
# select nginx, php and mariadb version you want to install and take a coffee break :)

After installation

You have to know a few things, as follows:

Go ahead

Go to the index page then check "Here are the details you need to know to go ahead with secure" section.

• As explaned in the index page, you must set your MariaDB password FIRST!
• Also, configuration files are located in the following directories:
  • NGINX: /etc/nginx
  • NGINX Web: /etc/nginx/conf.d (check the default config in the file named localhost)
  • PHP: /etc/php5/fpm
  • MariaDB: /etc/mysql
• The default web directory is /var/www/html, and the owner is set to your username as installation default.
