Introduction
This is probably an unrealistic scenario but it stemmed from a question asked in the forums and the results might be useful to others. This was done on Mythbuntu 10.10. Mythbuntu is one of the Ubuntu derivatives, in this case providing a Linux based TV package. It comes with PHP, Apache and MySQL installed having its own web-based controller.
There was no intention to provide a fully secured production server. This just gets basic Moodle working on 'localhost'.
Install Mythbuntu
- Install Mythbuntu using (if in doubt) default settings - Log in and exit MythTV application (using Escape Key) - Run Firefox and ensure that 'mythweb' is running at localhost (proving the web server is running)
Basic Setup
- Open a terminal window (from Applications>Accessories)
- become root, install some additional software (git and php extras Moodle needs):
sudo su (you will need to enter your password)
apt-get update
apt-get install git git-core git-doc
apt-get install php5-gd php5-curl php5-intl php5-xmlrpc
