    This document discusses converting from XAMPP to a LAMP stack and using Drupal as a content management system. It defines XAMPP and LAMP, noting that LAMP runs on Linux while XAMPP runs on Windows. It recommends moving to LAMP for cost savings, reliability, and to take advantage of open source software like Drupal. The document outlines installing Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP to configure the LAMP stack and then install and set up Drupal as the CMS. It describes the roles of each component in the LAMP stack and areas where a Drupal-powered LAMP site could be used.

    PRERNA BELLARA
    SAUDAMINI
    SHRIVASTAVA
    VIRAL B. SHAH
    Introduction
    XAMPP- cross platform LAMP- web server
    web server package. package on LINUX.
    Consists of Apache Consists of Apache
    HTTP Server, MySQL, HTTP Server, MySQL,
    PHP & Perl. PHP & Perl.
    Readily available as Has bundles of open
    package installation source softwares.
    Can be configured Configured seperately.
    seperately
    Current Scenario
    Most companies work on windows based
    systems.

    Choice of CMS framework varies from


    company to company(Drupal, Mambo,
    WordPress).
    Reasons:
    i. Simple to use OS,
    ii.Brand popularity of MICROSOFT.
    iii.Compatibility of most softwares with
    windows OS
    Programming Tools
    LINUX
    i. Modular Unix-like
    operating system.
    ii. Free & open source
    software.
    iii.Uses a monolithic
    kernel.
    iv.APACHE
    v. MYSQL
    vi.PHP
    Loopholes
    A windows based system is

    Costly.
    Relatively slower than LINUX based systems.
    Require proper maintenance.
    More prone to virus attacks.
    Not open source
    Problem definition
    To transfer a batch of system applications from
    one OS i.e. Windows to a LINUX based
    environment.

    To configure a LAMP STACK and use DRUPAL as


    the CMS or CMF.

    To create some functionalities for this LAMP


    STACK.
    Why use a LAMP STACK?
    i. Flexibility of LINUX
    ii. Reliability of LINUX
    iii.Basic requirement of a LINUX based system.

    Why use open source?


    i. Free
    ii. Easier to make change in the code.
    iii.Testing done globally by wide variety of users.
    iv.Bugs reported quickly.
    v. Provides better chance to improve existing software
    Working of project

    LINUX, Apache, MySQL, PHP. Is this


    enough?

    No!!
    Programming Tools
    Drupal
    i. Free and open source
    content management
    system(CMS) & CMF.
    ii. Written in PHP and
    distributed under the
    GNU General Public
    License
    iii.Allows publish, manage
    and organize variety of
    content on website.
    Features of Drupal
    Introduction to drupal
    i. Drupal as a CMS
    ii. Drupal as a CMF

    highly modular, open source web CMF.

    extensible, standards-compliant, and strives for clean


    code.
    Architecture of Drupal
    Position of Drupal in LampStack
    Components of Drupal
    Themes
    Blocks
    Comments
    Taxonomy
    Modules
    Types of Modules
    Core modules
    i. Block
    ii. Filter
    iii.Node
    iv.System
    v. User
    vi.Aggregator opt
    vii.Blog ion
    al
    viii.Color
    Contributed Modules
    They are not present with
    the initial installation.
    They need to be downloaded
    separately & installed.
    The contributed modules
    help in adding various
    functionalities to the system.
    There are around 1200
    known shared modules
    A very good example is the
    CCK module.
    Workflow of project
    Installing linux
    Installing Apache
    Installing MySQL
    Installing PHP
    Configuring PHP and MySQL with Apache
    Configuring Drupal.
    Establishing administrator for Drupal.
    Architecture of a LAMP STACK
    Role of different components
    Role of apache

    Role of php

    Role of mysql
    L-LINUX
    LINUX
    i. This is the OS we use in
    LAMP
    ii. LINUX is a free source
    open OS.
    A-APACHE
    Apache Web Server
    Was the first web server to
    have 100,000 milestone.
    Many web applications are
    designed keeping
    APACHE’s features in
    mind/
    M-MYSQL
    MySQL
    i. Is used to talk and
    connect to the database
    ii. a central component of
    the LAMP STACK.
    P-PHP
    PHP
    i. Hypertext Preprocessor,
    used to create dynamic
    web pages.
    ii. Now mostly used for
    server-side scripting.
    LAMP better than L,A,M,P!
    The Apache server running on Linux is an easy way of
    building a simple Web server, but the information
    provided by the Apache server will be "static" — that
    is, basic pages of information that the you must build
    and type yourself.
    For truly interactive and dynamic Web sites,
    however, what you need is a way of building pages
    composed of information in a database.
    Scope
    A lampstack along with drupal can be used to:
    Build an e-commerce site.eg Amazon
    An internet portale eg:facebook
    a personal, departmental, or corporate website
    a resource directory
     an online newspaper
     an image gallery
    intranet
    Reference
    Google
    DRUPAL documentation
    Wikipedia
    Php.net
