Text of the page (random words):
haps later on or tomorrow a server will be working so for now i will shut down ubuntu and to do so i will right click on the launch pad the bar at the top of the ubuntu desk top and i will choose to add an application to the launch pad and i will choose add to panel and click on shutdown which had a red icon with a circle in it and a notch at the top of the circle this way i can always click on that to power down a few hours later stupid me i did succeed in making ubuntu connect to my wi fi i said it was connected but i should have launched firefox to confirm that i can get to places like google com the reason the synaptic manager was acting funny was because it did not really have internet access i went out to do some errands and decided to leave ubuntu running just to see how long it stays stable when i came back i tried to use the browser and realize that i wasnt really connected i clicked the internet section of administration played around disconnected connected it prompted me again for the web key and now i had internet and now suddenly i could install all the apache php and mysql packages i wanted to verify that php works by using gedit directly from the menu to add a file to www var test php and gedit said i do not have permission but i remembered an earlier tutorial that had me do the same thing using the terminal which is as follows from terminal key in sudo gedit var www testphp php the sudo command automatically grants me admin rights super user i think su then type save the file then in firefox browser enter the address http localhost testphp php and if php is properly installed which it now is you see a detailed report of the status and settings of php i also installed phpadmin but i have to figure out how to launch it aha problem solved all i need to do is launch the firefox browser and enter http localhost phpmyadmin and i am in which i learned from this tutorial except now that i am in the phpmyadmin login screen it will not accept my password so i am following the tutorial at this link i tried a number of things and one of them which was a last resort wiped out a number of applications already installed including open office which is now no longer on the applications menu in the launch pad at the top of the screen so i am going through the huge list in the synaptic manager and marking what i think i need for reinstall and it is now downloading 300 packages for install i doubt that this will work but i want to see what happens and what its like i would even be curious to mark each and every package for install just to see how big the ubuntu installation would become but what i will probably have to do is uninstall and reinstall wubi ubuntu and work from my blog post notes to get it going again i found a bunch of links addressing the problems of phpmyadmin and not being able to log in with user password so i will keep on trying to keep on trying i am now entering ubuntu for first time after this install and my first task is to learn how to set up wi fi to recognize my belkin adaptor in an orderly fashion without the system freezing and necessitating a reboot at the upper left of the ubuntu desktop i click on system administration network tools which opens to the devices tab then drop down the network device can choose wireless interface next i close those and move to the right top of the ubuntu desktop and click on the left most wireless icon and click on create new wireless network it is asking me for the network name and that for me is a series of numbers but other people actually make up a name in their router one humorous one in my building is get away i am ready to enter my wep key and i am guessing that it is wep 40 128 bit rather than wep 128 bit but i am not sure i would like to see everyone who is interested in wubi installs in particular and ubuntu linux in general to collaborate in the production of a reliable step by step tutorial which anyone of average abilities can follow to 1 prepare a windows machine new or old for the ubi install 2 select with care which adapter they will use for connection to internet 3 how to may ubuntu talk to that internet adapter and wi fi by the way here is one example at dell s site of one persons solution to creating a driver for a wi fi adaptor i merely post this to point the way to dell ubuntu forums as just one example of how serious ubuntu is becoming as a choice in the marketplace also take a look at these digg posts regarding the moblin linux remix that is in the developer state 4 how to install lamp linux apache mysql php 5 if possible how to install a gui admin tool for mysql that appears on the desktop 6 step by step how to build a simple but complete application which includes member login email verification and all that is necessary to safeguard against sql injection into php if we can succeed in producing such a tutorial then many around the world shall benefit by being empowered to migrate to ubuntu and ubuntu itself as a community will grow stronger and more dominant in the workplace because our strength is in our users and the strength of each user is the tools and tutorials to build stable hardware software configurations which accomplish their tasks and goals in a sound and stable fashion preparing your old computer for wubi install 1 made certain that the computer is as clean as possible of trojans and viruses by using avira antivir and malwarebytes and then installing online armour firewall so that when you are in windows you will be protected against malware 2 be certain to boot into safe mode holding down the f8 key as the machine starts to boot and perform all virus scans a second time in safe mode 3 once you are certain that your machine is clean and your firewall is well trained in what is safe and trusted then delete or archive off line all unnecessary data so as to have the most disk space possible and then run chkdsk diskcleaner and then defrag it is important to run the defragger before you install wubi ubuntu because the root files in the ubunto folder will be marked as not moveable and hence not defraggable beginning the wubi install the following link is all you need in windows in your browser to start the wubi install of ubuntu linux unix onto your windows drive with no partitioning with all linux files located in one windows folder which may be deleted in the event of an uninstall and only a boot option to select windows or ubuntu i have installed and uninstalled ubuntu about 4 times in the past two days for reasons that i shall explain you may remove wubi installed ubuntu with the control panel add remove option just as you would remove any other program the uninstall does not remove the dual boot option but perhaps there is some way to do that if desired here is the link to the page which starts the wubi install http wubi installer org the install takes an hour using my verizon dsl the install is totally automatic only towards the end will it ask for a name for login and a password then it will reboot and you simply choose ubuntu instead of windows when you first boot into ubuntu the install continues for about 30 minutes if you have no intention of installing things like lamp linux apache mysql php then you are done because you have an ubuntu desktop with firefox open office and many sorts of utilities but your next task will be to get ubuntu connected to the internet i already have a belkin usb wi fi connector working in windows it took me several hours to figure out how to make this work but when you know it is rather simple if you look at the upper right of your desktop you will see a little icon which drops down to offer selections for internet connection one of which is wi fi you will see all the channels available you need to know the name of your channel and the wep key i click on my channel and then the whole system freezes i have to power down and reboot and reenter ubuntu once ubuntu reloads it will prompt me for the wep key and remember the key for furture sessions there is probably a better way to do this which would not involved rebooting but i found something that works and i dont feel like experimenting more right now note since this post i have decided to delete ubuntu and reinstall and determine an exact method of connecting to wifi with a wep key without have the machine freeze and having to reboot which might result in some damage to the more fragile file structure of ubuntu running on windows folders and files but in all my searching in google it seems to me that there is no one tutorial which addresses all the things i need to do to get ubuntu and wi fi working and then install apache mysql and php in fact part of my reason for posting this is so that i may document what i did over several days and remember it if i have to do it again in the future i am posting this right now from a foxfire browser running in ubuntu as i was typing the above sentence ubuntu froze up and i had to reboot now it is possible that part of the problem is the old compaq i am using with xp service pack 2 i tried to clean it up as much as possible before embarking upon this ubuntu experiment it is to the credit of wordpress that i did not lose a sentence of this post even though i had to reboot however i published and updated it frequently out of fear of losing my work i may be getting an old tower from someone so i will have a spare machine to install ubuntu from a cd and totally reformat the drive so that there will be no windows involved ubuntu impresses me enough to make me want to put in the effort to experiment and see if i can make it work i did google to see if there are any wi fi usb adaptors which come with linux drivers i did find one which i shall describe here and post one forum pointed out that there are wrappers that can wrap around the windows driver and be used in ubuntu but a native driver is preferable to a wrapper also if you put a wrapper around the windows driver then you are tied to the user agreement for that driver i mean it is not purely open source here is the link i found about a wireless wi fi adapter that supposedly works with no effort in an ubuntu machine http www airlink101 com products awll3028 php the awll3028 features a compact design and compatibility with usb 2 0 ports includes wireless encryption data with 64 128 152 bit wep also backward compatible with 802 11b here is the link which alerted me to the above airlink adapter i spent a lot of time a few years ago playing around with wamp which is apache mysql php under windows while lamp the same package under linux remember that ubuntu is a flavor of linux which in turn is a flavor of unix having wamp on your windows machine allows you to have your own private internet server even if you are not connected to the internet you can create sql databases using mysql and you can create webpages using php which query tables in your database and add modify delete records so my next task was to find out how to install apache and mysql and php on my new ubuntu install i will tell you up front what finally seemed to work for me and then i will backtrack and explain the ways that didnt seem to work this link explains how to install software in ubuntu using what is called system administration synaptic package manager i had to hunt around in that synaptic package manager and kind of guess which installs had words like apache php and mysql but once you find what you need you just click a little box and they install automatically i am positive that once i go to the huge barns noble store near union square i shall find books which talk one through these ubuntu installations once i had ubuntu installed and connected to the internet through the wi fi usb belkin adapter i was desperate to learn how to install anything at all and have it show up on the desktop i decided i would try to install avg for linux i downloaded the package named deb for debian which is what ubuntu is compatible with i downloaded the file under windows then i booted into ubuntu and navigated the file explorer to host which is actually drive c and all the windows folders once the avg deb file is downloaded you boot into ubuntu locate the file right click on it and it offers you the option to install it into ubuntu now the first great mystery after it installs is where did it install and the second great mystery is how might you place it as an icon on a desktop menu i never found out how to execute avg i now suspect that one gets into the shell and issues command lines to invoke these various programs i further imagine that there is some was to create a batch script file of all those commands and place that on a menu i tried so man diffent ways to install things that the files in the ubuntu windows director became corrupted and uninstall could not delete them i had to boot several times in windows and ubuntu and safe mode with the compute hanging until suddenly the computer informed me that it was doing chkdsk to repair whatever was wrong only then could i boot into windows and uninstall the corrupted version of ubuntu this is an illustration of the fragile nature of wubi ubuntu running under windows tonight before i go to sleep i am going to set defrag running which should take something like 5 or 10 hours after one succeeds in installing apache the test to see if it is working is very simple get into a browser and type localhost and it will pop up with a screen that says it worked the way to test out mysql is to click on a little black windowed terminal program and get into shell one must issue an su command and be prompted for the root password so that one may issue these commands in root with admin status here is the tutorial which helped me to ender the shell and issue mysql commands tags apache install mysql php tutorial ubuntu uninstall wubi posted in software technology ubuntu leave a comment post at bleepingcomputer com november 10 2009 i realize you are overwhelmed at times and could not get to my post please consider this solved my jhoos experience inspired me to dig deeply into avira antivir support forum part of my concern was that repeated scans by malwarebytes and avira both in normal windows mode and save mode did not seem to eliminate my problem avira support volunteers suspected that there were remnants of old mcafee and norton installations which can only be removed by special and two special and little know uninstall utilities provided by mcafee symantic once i ran those uninstall utilities avira and and malwarebytes were able to do their job and i had a clean system then i inquired which is the best firewall which would be compatible with avira and was directed to online armor online armor in turn periodically points a finger of suspicion at some file and i can then google on it and block it if i feel uncomfortable i feel that the worst that will happen is that some other important application will cease to function correctly and then i can unblock it and that it...
