Here is a process of setting up a basic Apache web server on Ubuntu Server VM running on a linux machine. We'll go through the steps of installing Apache, configuring it to serve a simple HTML page, and then accessing that page from a web browser.
Step 1: Install Apache on Ubuntu Server
- Connect to your Ubuntu Server VM.
- Open a terminal window.
Run the following commands to install Apache:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install apache2This will update the package list and install the Apache web server.
Step 2: Start and Enable Apache
After installing Apache, you need to start the service and enable it to start automatically on boot. Run these commands:
sudo systemctl start apache2
sudo systemctl enable apache2Step 3: Create a Simple HTML Page
Now, let's create a simple HTML file to serve as your web page. You can use any text editor to create the file. For example, we'll use the nano text editor:
sudo nano /var/www/html/index.htmlIn the text editor, add the following simple HTML code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>My Simple Website</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome to My Simple Website</h1>
<p>This is a basic HTML page served by Apache on Ubuntu Server.</p>
</body>
</html>Save the file by pressing Ctrl + O, then press Enter, and exit by pressing Ctrl + X.
Step 4: Configure Firewall
If you have a firewall enabled on your Ubuntu Server, you'll need to allow HTTP traffic. Run the following command to allow HTTP traffic through the firewall:
sudo ufw allow 80/tcpStep 5: Access Your Web Page
Now, you should be able to access your simple web page from your Mac's web browser. Open a web browser and enter the IP address of your Ubuntu Server VM in the address bar. To find the IP address, you can use the following command:
ip aLook for an IP address associated with your server's network interface (usually "eth0" or "ens33").
Enter the IP address in your browser, for example, http://your_server_ip. You should see your simple web page displayed.
Step 6: Modify the HTML Page
If you want to modify the HTML page in the future, simply edit the /var/www/html/index.html file using a text editor like nano, save the changes, and then refresh the web page in your browser.
That's it! You've successfully set up an Apache web server on your Ubuntu Server VM and served a simple HTML page. You can now build and customize your website further as needed.
