Localhost LAMP on Ubuntu

[lstables]

Hi all,

I just wondered if anyone can help me.
I have installed LAMP on Ubuntu but when i put my websites into the var/www and try and update the sites using jEdit the updates doesn't take place when viewing the url http://localhost/mysite in my browser.

Have I done something wrong ?
Yes I ALWAYS save before refreshing in browser

Thanks in advance
Lee

Hi,

It could be a cache issue. Try clearing it. :)

Follow the documentation to the letter...

http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html


Also your webpages go in <lampp directory>/htdocs
create a new folder in here with...


sudo mkdir <lampp directory/htdocs/<name of folder>

Then give it permissions with...


sudo chown <your username> <lampp directory/htdocs/<name of folder>

Then goto your browser and go to http://localhost/<name of folder>


Of course replace <*> with proper names
