I just got my first vps which i will use for an online game. However, I have only worked with normal webhost so far (with control panel, mysql, php, phpmyadmin already installed), and I have no idea what to do now. The only thing I have is the ip adress, username and password to the vps.
I would like to have some kind of control panel to login to see some stats, phpmyadmin to control the mysql database, and the ability to upload and store the .php files thats talks with the mysql db. I read a little about LAMP (apache), is that good?
Where do I start?
Many thanks
VPS os is debian 6.
Im using a mac
Linode library and Slicehost articles are good places to start.
perhaps check out webmin (http://www.webmin.com/) for a control panel, and howtoforge (http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_debian_lamp_server) - there are tons of tutorials out there to get you started (google is your friend), and no one simple answer. NARKOZ suggestions are very good too.

I am looking for a way to host a webpage and a mySQL data base but in internal network, like an intranet for example.
When I was working on the website and the database, I used MAMP to emule a server on my PC but this work only on one PC. I'm looking for a way to share this website on different PC but only on my internal network.
Sorry for bad english. If there's something not understandable, please ask.
If it's a "repost question", please lead me to the answer I'm looking for. If you need more information, be pleased to ask them.
Thanks.
Unless it is very sensitive I would go for an external webhotel like godaddy.com or similar in your country. And add password protection on the site.
If you want to host it you need a computer that is on 24/7 and install your setup there, but then you are required to handle hardware failures, updating the software and so on.
MAMP and others should work. You might be visiting http://localhost:1234/index.php on your machine so on your network on other device, try http://yourmachinename:1234/index.php. As long as the ports are open, this should work.

Please I need help, I have a project, but i'm tired of making my code and uploading it to the server, I need a localhost to make it more faster and I was thinking of apache but I don't know how to download it correctly
Well if you are going to install them one by one it will be a bit tricky (for beginners).
If you have never done it before I recommend Zend Server Community edition. The installer is pretty good it sets up everything for you.
http://www.zend.com/en/products/server/free-edition
But if you are an adventurous kind the minimum I would imagine you would need to install is
Apache Httpd => http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi
PHP => http://php.net/downloads.php
MySQL => http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
As you haven't mentioned which OS you want to configure it on. But I think you will find a lot of tutorials for any platform for each.
man just download XAMPP, a few click install.. and done.. since you sound like you have no idea of how to start... then this would be perfect.. just check it out for your self.

I have inherited a little database driven PHP site.
I am a C# programmer, and have almost zero experience with PHP, although I have great experience with databases and some html / web design.
My boss tasked me to create a staging and production environment for this php site.
Environment: Win 7, 64 bit. Sql Server 2012. PHP 5.2. There are a couple hundred users. We only the need the site to work with explorer. Dreamweaver latest version. There would not be more than 1 user working on the project at a time.
Which code repository should we go with?
For now we are not going with a code repository yet. Besides having separate folders for staging and production, would we need any other folder structure?
I also would be very grateful for your help in formulating the right questions to ensure that I have everything that a "professional" developer needs to set this up.
Maybe.. You're looking for http://www.xampp.org, its an all in one solution :)
You can however customize the environment once installed.
Even the PRO's use it :) because it makes it all very simple and quick :)

I am new to programming field. The company which I work with has assigned me a task to develop a sample project which contains login of members and a forum. I have developed it using mysql, php and apache server. So my question is "how to transfer it onto the LMS server. Should I transfer the project from the server system itself or can I do it through my pc via internet?" My question may look very simple to ask but I am still in the learning stage. Please help me. Thank you..
You need Internet connection in order to connect target server by FTP.
Also you will need to connect MySQL to push your database dump to server.
You can find more information about deployment strategy here.
To transfer all the files you will need an ftp program and the login information for the ftp server on the LMS server.
And for the mysql it depends, the easiest way is if you have a phpMyAdmin interface for it, mot of the time you can find this # http://thesite.com/phpMyAdmin or trough an admin panel.
Then you copy (or export) you mysql database and import it on the new server.
How you go about this exactly depends greatly from platform to platform.
Hope this helps.

I'm in need of some sort of software based way to reserve the use of a couple machines. There about 5 different machines used in a lab that are shared among everybody but people need to schedule the days/times they want to use these machines. This is currently handled with pen/paper and you need to physically walk place to place to see when they're free and available for sign-up. I've been tasked with moving this system to a private webserver that currently runs an installation of mediawiki.
I've looked for extensions for mediawiki itself, but I couldn't find any kind of scheduler/planner/queue system that is premade that allows users to reserve a time frame/day to use machine. Additionally it would be nice if anyone could sign up but users were restricted from removing others from the queue(which is why a traditional calendar software with the honor system wouldn't exactly work). The solution doesn't need to be embedded within medawiki itself but must be able to be hosted off of a webserver, do you guys have any suggestions on how I can approach this? The best I can come up with is to buckle down and write my own php/django based site to handle this(I'm not very experienced with either). While I do have time I want to make sure there isn't something available I missed before dedicating my time to writing a custom application, and would appreciate anyone who could help.
While I've not used this:
