Looking to quickly launch a LAMP or LEMP stack on your VPS without spending 30+ minutes manually installing packages?
We’ve built a simple, open-source Bash script that lets you auto-install LAMP (Apache + MariaDB + PHP) or LEMP (Nginx + MariaDB + PHP-FPM) on Ubuntu or Debian — all in just a couple of minutes.
🔧 What This Script Does
Once executed, the script:
- Prompts you to choose between LAMP and LEMP
- Detects PHP version and system OS
- Installs:
- Apache or Nginx
- MariaDB (MySQL-compatible)
- PHP with popular extensions
- UFW (Uncomplicated Firewall)
- Sets up:
- System services (auto-start on reboot)
- info.php test file to validate PHP install
- Basic firewall rules (SSH, HTTP, HTTPS)
✅ Supported Systems
This script works out-of-the-box on:
- Ubuntu 20.04, 22.04
- Debian 11 and above
Whether you’re a developer, sysadmin, student, or just want a fast web stack for testing — this script is for you.
