Hi my CakePHP project works fine. I have pushed it to my server #www.zeyeland.com/register. So the cake app works great but I am not sure how to get my Apache2 server to run the app automatically. I have to log into my server and type bin/cake server to start it.
Some time ago, When I uploaded my NodeJS app to server I had to edit the .bashrc file and use the bash script command "cd/var/www/html/zeyeland-website/bin && pm2 start npm1 -- start and cd". This command starts my nodejs app automatically
Do I need a similar bash command with bin/cake server to run my Cakephp project automatically too?
You need to look for upstarting apache and mysql so that whenever your server reboots the services will start automatically.

I have installed several services for web apps (memcache, tomcat and mongodb).
They works fine, but I should start or stop it manually.
For example (cmd): memcached.exe -d start
I need these services only during running WAMP server, so i don't want to run these services during starting windows...
How to run these commands automaticaly duiring starting and stoping WAMP server (do the same thing with third part services as it do to Apache and Mysql services)?
Thank you.
I have not found right answer yet, but I have some lifehack (on memcache example):
Install any app as a windows service. (cmd: memcached.exe -d install)
Config your service: Start > Manualy (standart windows services routine)
Creat file "start.bat" and write down starting commands for all your services and launche it after starting WAMP server. (net start memcached)
Creat file "stop.bat" and write down stoping commands for all your services and launche it after stoping WAMP server. (net stop memcached)
It's not a solution, but save some time and resources for you.
Does someone knows how to run these files (start.bat & stop.bat) automaticaly during starting and stoping WAMP server?
My company have a cloud dedicated server, hosted in google cloud, running centos 7 with apache2, php5.5 and mariadb running.
The webserver is running a private application for business clients and companys. Every client has his own database and subdomain, so they, and their own clients can access his applicacion going to http://theirname.example.net/
I've created an interactive command line script for client creation. It creates user and secure password, ftp custom folder, create mysqldatabase and populate it with a sql file, create subdomains and other thing. Also i've made another version of this script with no user interaction, receiving parameters as the client name via command line arguments ( /path-to/script.sh usertocreate mysqluser mysql pass).
So, here is the deal, i want to create a web interface, password protected, just available for my company IP address, this interface should be able to run these SH scripts (not the interactive ones) with sudo permissions.
I was thinking on create a subserver in other port (like http://example.org:2501) using another instance of apache (or other webserver) which runs with a specified user with sudo permissions enables only in the neccesary folders.
Before doing anything, i've created a PHP script which runs commands to console, and tried to run SUDO commands with that. Allowing apache user to sudoers list (just to make it work during develop). I could run these scripts from my web app without SUDO permissions, but they where not working at 100% (since some commands require SUDO). When i try with sudo i receive a code 127 error responde (permission problem).
I stopped there and decided to investigate the best way to do this.
I have full control of the server machine. Apache2 and everything normal is running well. (mariadb, proftpd with passive mode active -100 ports added- )
SELINUX is DISABLED. Firewalld Running
SSH is available for use
I can install another webserver in another port to accomplish this. If a lot of HTTPD configurations should be changed to accomplish this, i will preffer to install another webserver
I can also install any 3rd party software.
I'm a PHP Developer with low experience in other programming languages, if it's necesary to invoke any other programming language to do this (maybe like Python) i would love some docummentation links
Access to this web application would be limited only to my company's static ip address and will be protected
Any thoughts/ideas ? Thanks in advance
PS: If someone want to edit my text and add some colours and format, edition will be aprovved
EDIT TLDR: I want to run another httpd in another with a webapi. This webapi should can run console commands as SUDO. Access to this webserver will be limited to my company's IP. I'm not sure if this is the best way to do it and i want opinions. Also, i'm not pretty sure if its possible to run sudo commands from php without any trouble.
I am currently creating a computer management intranet site using a LAMP web server and PHP running on an Ubuntu server. To remotely shutdown domain connected machines, I usually run a shutdown command in command prompt on my machine, that tells the PCs to shutdown via Active Directory.
Is there a way to connect to a remote Windows machine from Apache on Ubuntu and run the command under an account with domain admin privileges? If possible, I would not like to have a password in plain text in the PHP script, so can this be achieved using public keys or something like that?

Will let you run command line programs that will help you automate this process, it could let you execute a batch file to do what you're looking for
In my application i have to deploy my application on client system.
So is there any way to run my php application without installing xampp...
Because the client should access it as a readymade app without installing anything...
This is the description of my project...
We have to develop an application where the client will have our application he will connect to remote server
Then he will download the data from remote server...
Then he uses that downloaded data using that app
Here my requirement is the user may not have the knowledge of installing the xampp...
So is there any way to run the application in user system just by copying some files
U may suggest me a one click solution (like using installer which will include installation of xampp and copying my data into user system)
I really dont want to use any external software to render no database PHP pages so I did some digging and found that if you run php -S localhost:port in your working directory you basically start a server there.
S is a capital S and not s
I'm a big fan of server2go. I've used it to deploy PHP applications on CD/DVD. It comes with MySQL and is relatively easy to configure. I've even replaced their splash screen with my own so no one knows I'm using it. It's donationware, but I was impressed enough to donate:
server2go-web
With this application, you don't have to install all that other stuff. It's self-contained in this executable and directory.
EDIT: To clarify, server2go does not install anything on the client machine. It runs as an exe only when you specifically want it to. When you click on the .exe file, it launches your PHP application in a browser window, then you can right-click on the server2go icon in the system tray and close it when you're done.
EDIT2: One gotcha: if you want to save data to the MySQL db on the client machine, you'll need to copy serve2go to a directory on the client machine or run it on a writable USB stick. If you run this application off CD/DVD, it will be able to read data from the database, but not write.
The better way is to use PHP Desktop Application. It will allow you to run your PHP Script like a Desktop application and you don't need to install Xampp or any other web server to run.
PHP Desktop Application
After downloading the .Zip file unzips it to any folder that you like. After unzipping, Go to the folder, and there you can see a folder "www". Delete all the files contained in it and move all your php script to it.
Once you moved all your files into it. Run the .Exe file named "PHP desktop-chrome"
It will open your PHP Script really like a Desktop Application.
This script doesn't require any kind of server software like Xampp, Wamp, Etc installed in your PC.
You can either host the php application or install the application into one system as server and call in client system using the ip of the server system like the following
http://**ip address/php file name
If you don't want your client to install anything then you should create Client Server architecture, there is no another way.
PHP Application are not meant to be deployed on multiple clients. It's meant to be deployed on a webserver (your own server with sth. like IIS or XAMPP) so the clients can access it via their browser and doesn't have to install anything more.
If you want to deploy applications on the client pc's i recommened an other programming language like Java or C/C++.
I simply used xampp zip version so i copied my application into htdocs and the whole xampp is given to the customer so he simply running the application eazily without installation.
Make sure you have installed php from https://www.php.net/downloads.php. Once installed add it to path. Lastly type php -S localhost:8000
PHP needs to be installed on the machine it is running at in order to make sure it works. Since the app may grow and may require extension installing, PHP upgrading over time, hosting this on a client machine is not a very easy task in terms of management. You may want to host your project on a server and write a small bash script sending requests to the API.
If, for some reason you cannot host this on a server where your clients would send requests via the bash scripts, then you may want to install only PHP. If it does not need to listen to HTTP requests, then you do not need a server, you can just implement the PHP application and create a bash script so the user will be able to run it from the UI of their operating system.
No, you need some kind of server - Wamp, Xampp, etc.
You can host it online, and then he can just browse it from his PC.
