Thread: Setting up a website, need some help

I want wants me to set up a website for my business by means of Joomla. I'm presently receiving into this sort of material, so I need some help. (I know this isn't actually Linux connected but I'd rather just ask you guys)

Quote :

These are the minimum requirements needed before installation of Joomla! 1.0.12 can be successful.

* PHP 4.2.x or above - * MySQL 3.23.x or above - * Apache 1.3.x or above -
You must ensure that you have MySQL, XML, and Zlib functionality enabled within your PHP installation.


No sign what these are, which I ought to use, where to obtain them, as well as how to set them up. Any sight?

Fedora 11 as well as Ubuntu 9.04 together has all that and they're completely free. You can install, test as well as develop the site on any Fedora 11 plus Ubuntu 9.04 installation. When you're prepared to go live go discover a polite hosting company to host it. You should look for a corporation that's using php 5.3.0 apache 2.2.11 and a latest edition of MySQL.
