LampServer

Overview

The University of Leicester provides LAMP servers with a standard set of services, but some restrictions on what a user can do. For more information see the ​UoL LAMP Wiki.

Layout

All the files that a user requires to change are in the /local directory. This directory contains the perl, python, apache and tomcat config settings and log files. It is also where you must install new libraries for [Python] and [PHP]. This is documented in the ​UoL LAMP Wiki.

Backup and Restore

The LAMP servers are backed up automatically as part of the LAMP service, although no separate database back up is taken.

To restore from a back up, contact the ​University Helpdesk. AskNick
