Problem installing LAMP

[kedar5]

Hello,

I am installing LAMP server using the following page.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP

I have installed tasksel.
But when I try to install lamp-server using tasksel, I get the following error -

#sudo tasksel install lamp-server
tasksel: aptitude failed (100)

Kindly help. Thanks.

You can take a shortcut with apt-get

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install lamp-server^
