To test if your web server is running properly:
Check that apache is running
Create a test web page and put it into /var/www/index.html of your server
Find the ip address if your server
Paste the server ip address into firefox on your laptop.
If everything is working properly, you should see “This is a test” in firefox.
These instructions only work on Cent OS. Ubuntu/Debian use different package names and file locations.
If you are new to LAMP, I would highly recommend setting up a turn key solution.
