LAMP stack built with Docker Compose

This is a basic LAMP stack environment built using Docker Compose. It consists following:

• PHP 7.4.16
• Apache 2.4
• MySQL 5.7.22
• phpMyAdmin
• Redis

Installation

Clone this repository on your local computer and switch to branch 7.4.x. Run the docker-compose up -d.

git clone https://github.com/Sensei85/docker-lamp-redis.git
cd docker-lamp-redis/
cp sample.env .env
docker-compose up -d

Your LAMP stack is now ready!! You can access it via http://localhost. If you already have another sever running on default port 80, change HOST_MACHINE_UNSECURE_HOST_PORT in env to 81

So your new LAMP stack address will be http://localhost:81
