Provision a vagrant box with PHP 7.0 - apache

I am trying to provision an ubuntu/trusty64 vagrant box with Apache 2.4 and PHP 7.0 but have not succeeded.
This is my provisions.sh script:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Vagrant instance provision script
# Php 7.0
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php -y
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php7.0 -y
# Apache 2.4
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/apache2 -y
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install apache2 -y
if ! [ -L /var/www ]; then
rm -rf /var/www/html
ln -fs /vagrant /var/www/html
fi
When I vagrant up, apache works fine but PHP does not. However, if I remove the PHP installation line,
sudo apt-get install php7.0 -y
and execute it from the command line after the VM is running, PHP works fine.
Any ideas why this is or how to fix the provisioning of the box so that PHP works from the start?

The initial question already contains the answer. It is the order in which the commands are being executed. If PHP gets installed before Apache is installed, then certain configuration files will not automatically be configured. This can be done manually, but requires certain know-how. I yet have to come across easy tutorials or manuals.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Vagrant instance provision script
# Php 7.0
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php -y
sudo apt-get update
# Apache 2.4
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/apache2 -y
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install apache2 -y
if ! [ -L /var/www ]; then
rm -rf /var/www/html
ln -fs /vagrant /var/www/html
fi
# Changed this line
sudo apt-get install php7.0 -y
I too have been facing this issue. So hopefully with this answer I provide some help to others.

How to install gearman extension in php7 running on ubuntu 18.04

I am currently required to setup the new server running php7.2 and the server will have many background process for sending emails to customer. the recommendation I got was to use Gearman Job Server.
I have been searching but seems to have only post about gearman-job-server with php5 and below.
The process of installing Gearman Job Server with php7 will be covered in like 4 steps
Install and update the Gearman PPA
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gearman-developers/ppa
sudo apt-get update
Install Gearman Job Server and some other required components and tools
sudo apt-get install gearman-job-server libgearman-dev php7.0-dev php-pear wget unzip re2c
sudo apt-get upgrade
Download, compile the gearman pecl module and add to php.ini
cd /tmp/
sudo wget https://github.com/wcgallego/pecl-gearman/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip
cd pecl-gearman-master
sudo phpize
./configure
sudo make
sudo make install
echo "extension=gearman.so" | sudo tee /etc/php/7.0/mods-available/gearman.ini
sudo phpenmod -v ALL -s ALL gearman
Restart webserver or PHP FPM
sudo service php7.0-fpm restart
sudo service apache2 restart
If you are running a different version of PHP make sure you make the appropriate changes to the commands or directories mentioned above. ie “/etc/php/7.0/” to “/etc/php/7.1/” etc.
Thanks to techearl.com for their tutorial which can be found
Here
The answer by Ruberandinda Patience is correct and will work but since the gearman pecl module is packaged for Ubuntu there is a much simpler way to achieve the same thing:
apt install gearman-job-server php-gearman

Cannot start apache automatically with docker

I made a simple custom docker setup for php development. So far everything works as expected. The only thing that I cannot figure out is why apache2 does not start automatically.
Here is my dockerfile:
FROM ubuntu:latest
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y apache2 php libapache2-mod-php php-mcrypt php-mysql php-cli php-curl php-xml php-intl php-mbstring git vim composer curl
COPY . /var/www/example
COPY vhost.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/example.conf
RUN a2ensite example
RUN chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/example/logs
RUN service apache2 restart
And here is my docker-compose.yml:
version: '2'
services:
app:
build:
context: .
dockerfile: Dockerfile
image: myexampleapp
ports:
- 8080:80
tty: true
And here is the output docker-compose up command:

It shows clearly that apache was restarted successfully. However it actually does not:

I am new to docker, so all suggestions (even if they are not answering this specific question) to improve what I am doing so far are welcome.
Thanks
Docker services have to be running in the foreground. In your Dockerfile, RUN service apache2 restart will start apache as background process. Hence the container will exit.
To run apache in the foreground, add the following to the Dockerfile.
CMD ["/usr/sbin/apachectl", "-D", "FOREGROUND"]
FROM ubuntu:latest
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y apache2 php libapache2-mod-php php-mcrypt php-mysql php-cli php-curl php-xml php-intl php-mbstring git vim composer curl
COPY . /var/www/example
COPY vhost.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/example.conf
RUN a2ensite example
RUN chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/example/logs
CMD ["/usr/sbin/apachectl", "-D", "FOREGROUND"]
The above answer is probably correct that mentioned that you can start it with:
CMD apachectl -D FOREGROUND
With docker it is sometimes a good idea to use the absolute path to a binary. So for example maybe do this instead:
/usr/sbin/apache2 -D FOREGROUND
I had a look a bit on google to see what other people are doing. I found this example of a dockerfile where the guy mentions a script start.sh:
From here: https://github.com/jacksoncage/apache-docker/blob/master/Dockerfile
EXPOSE 80
ADD start.sh /start.sh
RUN chmod 0755 /start.sh
CMD ["bash", "start.sh"]
Here is the start.sh script: https://github.com/jacksoncage/apache-docker/blob/master/start.sh
Which simply just does:
#!/bin/bash
# Start apache
/usr/sbin/apache2 -D FOREGROUND
Unrelated tip:
Your dockerfile you need to pin the version for Ubuntu.
See: https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/docker-tip-18-please-pin-your-docker-image-versions
Let me know if this helps.
If it help you or anybody, i was preparing working example with complete docker-composer:
https://github.com/marekz/docker-composer-example
FROM ubuntu:18.04
EXPOSE 80
ENV TZ=Europe/Warsaw
RUN ln -snf /usr/share/zoneinfo/$TZ /etc/localtime && echo $TZ > /etc/timezone
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get upgrade -y
RUN apt-get install -y libapache2-mod-php7.2 php7.2 php7.2-cli php7.2-gd php7.2-intl php7.2-mbstring php7.2-mysql php7.2-xml php7.2-xsl php7.2-bcmath php7.2-zip php-apcu npm lynx
RUN apt-get install -y mysql-client composer screen tmux vim nano iputils-ping
ENTRYPOINT service apache2 restart && bash
By analyzing the statements, I found a solution to my error
File: Dockerfile
FROM debian
RUN apt-get update -qq >/dev/null && apt-get install -y -qq procps telnet apache2 php7.3 -qq >/dev/null
RUN useradd --user-group --create-home --shell /bin/false app
RUN mkdir /data && chown -R app /data && chmod 777 /data
COPY php.conf /etc/apache2/mods-available/php7.3.conf
RUN a2enmod userdir && a2enmod php7.3
Error:
To activate the new configuration, you need to run:
service apache2 reload
Solutions:
FROM debian -> FROM debian:10
The reason was some conflict between the debian system and the php version. The latest version of debian has a newer version of PHP (PHP 7.4 at that time).

Unable to login to guacamole

I am very new to the guacamole project. I installed it following instruction online. But I am not able to login to the guacamole application. The instructions I followed are,
sudo apt-get update
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw allow 22 && sudo ufw allow 8080
sudo apt-get install fail2ban build-essential htop libcairo2-dev libjpeg62-dev libpng12-dev libossp-uuid-dev tomcat7 -y
sudo apt-get install libfreerdp-dev libpango1.0-dev libssh2-1-dev libtelnet-dev libvncserver-dev libpulse-dev libssl-dev libvorbis-dev -y
sudo wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/guacamole/files/current/source/guacamole-server-0.9.8.tar.gz
tar -xzf guacamole-server-0.9.8.tar.gz
cd guacamole-server-0.9.8/
sudo ./configure --with-init-dir=/etc/init.d && sudo make && sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
sudo update-rc.d guacd defaults
sudo mkdir /etc/guacamole
sudo gedit /etc/guacamole/guacamole.properties
sudo gedit /etc/guacamole/user-mapping.xml
sudo mkdir /usr/share/tomcat7/.guacmole
sudo ln -s /etc/guacamole/guacamole.properties /usr/share/tomcat7/.guacmole
sudo wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/guacamole/files/current/binary/guacamole-0.9.8.war
sudo mv guacamole-0.9.8.war /var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/guacamole.war
sudo service guacd start
sudo service tomcat7 start
My user-mapping.xml file is configured as below,
<user-mapping>
<authorize username="sandesha" password="sandy" >
<connection name="RDP">
<protocol>rdp</protocol>
<param name="hostname">103.5.133.3</param>
<param name="port">22</param>
</connection>
</authorize>
</user-mapping>
When I hit localhost:8080/guacamole, I am getting one login screen, but if I enter the credential information I configured in user-mapping.xml, it is throeing invalid-credential error. How to resolve this?
The error you are getting indicates that the Guacamole application cannot find user-mapping.xml file. Normally, this file is stored in the following locations:
directory specified by system property guacamole.home
directory specified by environment variable GUACAMOLE_HOME
directory .guacamole located in the tomcat home directory
From the instructions you have posted it looks like you are using the last option. However, your directory is '.guacmole' with one 'a' missing. The two lines from your instructions should be:
sudo mkdir /usr/share/tomcat7/.guacamole
sudo ln -s /etc/guacamole/guacamole.properties /usr/share/tomcat7/.guacamole

How to start apache2 automatically in a ubuntu docker container?

I am trying to create a Dockerfile that will start apache automatically. Nothing has worked. But If I log into the container and run service apache2 start it works. Why can I not run that command from my Dockerfile?
FROM ubuntu
# File Author / Maintainer
MAINTAINER rmuktader
# Update the repository sources list
RUN apt-get update
# Install and run apache
RUN apt-get install -y apache2 && apt-get clean
#ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/sbin/apache2", "-k", "start"]
#ENV APACHE_RUN_USER www-data
#ENV APACHE_RUN_GROUP www-data
#ENV APACHE_LOG_DIR /var/log/apache2
EXPOSE 80
CMD service apache2 start
The issue is here: CMD service apache2 start When you execute this command process apache2 will be detached from the shell. But Docker works only while main process is alive.
The solution is to run Apache in the foreground. Dockerfile must look like this: (only last line changed).
FROM ubuntu
# File Author / Maintainer
MAINTAINER rmuktader
# Update the repository sources list
RUN apt-get update
# Install and run apache
RUN apt-get install -y apache2 && apt-get clean
#ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/sbin/apache2", "-k", "start"]
#ENV APACHE_RUN_USER www-data
#ENV APACHE_RUN_GROUP www-data
#ENV APACHE_LOG_DIR /var/log/apache2
EXPOSE 80
CMD apachectl -D FOREGROUND
For me last line with CMD was wrong:
# it helped me
CMD ["apachectl", "-D", "FOREGROUND"]
My project was slightly different where I installed a bunch of other stuff, but the apache start portion matched above. Once I built this image and used it, my server started fine.
FROM ubuntu:latest
#install all the tools you might want to use in your container
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install curl -y
RUN apt-get install vim -y
#the following ARG turns off the questions normally asked for location and timezone for Apache
ARG DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
RUN apt-get install apache2 -y
#change working directory to root of apache webhost
WORKDIR var/www/html
#copy your files, if you want to copy all use COPY . .
COPY index.html index.html
#now start the server
CMD ["apachectl", "-D", "FOREGROUND"]
FROM ubuntu
RUN apt update
ARG DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
RUN apt install apache2 -y && apt-get clean
ENV APACHE_RUN_USER www-data
ENV APACHE_RUN_GROUP www-data
ENV APACHE_LOG_DIR /var/log/apache2
EXPOSE 80
CMD ["apachectl", "-D", "FOREGROUND"]
Adding the ARG DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive should do the trick.
FROM ubuntu
RUN apt-get update
ARG DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
RUN apt-get -y install apache2
ADD index.html /var/www/html
CMD ["apachectl", "-D", "FOREGROUND"]
Simple docker file for run ubuntu with apache server
RUN apt-get update
ARG DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive # for remove time zone
RUN apt-get -y install apache2
ADD . /var/www/html
ENTRYPOINT apachectl -D FOREGROUND
ENV name Vishal # anything you can give

Apache2 not installing /etc/apache2 ubuntu 12.04

I'm trying to recover from a recent problem upgrading to apache2.4 and php 5.5. I've uninstalled apache2 and deleted the /etc/apache2 folder but when I install apache2.2 it's not creating /etc/apache2 folder so doesn't start.
Do as below:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get remove apache2
sudo apt-get purge apache2
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install apache2
Do as following
sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2 apache2-utils
sudo apt-get install --reinstall apache2 apache2-utils
