cd /usr/ports/databases/mysql55-server

2. Build the port by typing:

make BUILD_OPTIMIZED=yes BUILD_STATIC=yes

and  start  the installation with :

make install clean

3. Open /etc/rc.conf with your editor and add the line shown below to  enable starting  mysql server  on boot.

mysql_enable="YES"

4. Start mysql manually


/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server start

5. Set a password for the MySQL root user by executing the command


/usr/local/bin/mysqladmin -uroot password 'new-password'

  • Install Apache

1. Go to the apache22 port directory by entering the following command:

cd /usr/ports/www/apache22

2. install apache by typing:

make install clean

3. Open /etc/rc.conf with your  editor and add the line shown below. to  ensure  that apache  with  start on boot

apache22_enable="YES"

#

  •  Install PHP

1. Go to the php5 port directory by typing the command:

cd /usr/ports/lang/php52

2. Build and install the port by typing

make install clean

Make sure the APACHE (Build Apache module) option is ticked when configuring the build,

3. Go to the php52-extentions meta port :

cd /usr/ports/lang/php52-extentions

4. Build and install the  port  (Just accept the defaults )

make install clean

5.Copy  the php.ini file:

cp /usr/local/etc/php.ini-dist /usr/local/etc/php.ini

6. Edit your Apache configuration file (/usr/local/etc/apache22/httpd.conf) and add  this:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

7.  in  the DirectoryIndex  add php  extentions  like:

DirectoryIndex index.php index.html

  • Install PhpMyAdmin

Got to the phpmyadmin port directory by typing the command:

cd /usr/ports/databases/phpmyadmin

2. Build and install the port by typing:

make install clean

3. phpMyAdmin is now installed in /usr/local/www/phpMyAdmi, we have to  create Alias and Directory entries in /usr/local/etc/apache22/httpd.conf. add the following lines to the <IfModule alias_module> section .

Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/local/www/phpMyAdmin

4. As /usr/local/www/phpMyadmin is outside of the Apache <DocumentRoot> you will have to make a <Directory> entry for it too, like :

<Directory "/usr/local/www/phpMyAdmin">
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

save  and exit

5- last

cp /usr/local/www/phpMyAdmin/config.default.php /usr/local/www/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php

Done  .

you can  access  your  phpmyadmin panel from http://hostname/phpmyadmi

{module user9-footer|none}

Larry Page is not being completely honest! The manner in which the PRISM program/project works does not need access from company administrators or owners, so called “direct access”; the access to the information is already there. These tech company CEOs take for granted the actual intelligence of most end users of their products. All it takes is a little digging and reading to go from ignorant to informed on these things especially on exactly how the internet works/functions in the U.S.A. I find Larry Page’s remarks just as laughable as Al Gore’s claim to “inventing” the internet/world wide web!

If you, as an end user, are reading this post; I challenge you to research these matters yourself. It really is quite simple with all the “information sites” that exist on the web today ie Wikipedia, & other online encyclopedias that actually list source material, as well as highly respected tech sites and blogs that also list their source material. Be warned: this is only the tip of the iceberg and these tech CEOs know and understand this; they are scrambling in attempt to perform DAMAGE CONTROL to save the company and what little trust thay have left from their products end users/consumers.

Am I a skeptic? I believe someone has to be or needs to be at this point in time! If your not just a little skeptical of the government, tech companies, and the people that are in charge of these agencies and companies; you need to be, even if just a little skeptic. For your own personal protection and security! I know I was a part of this community for over 14 years!
