I've been dreaming long of a LAMP server that can be kept updated without EVER being stopped. So I would vote for the packages in LAMP pattern.
which version of the LAMP packages would you want to be included? the basic packages are already in the standard repos (OSS). the latest versions of apache2, mysql, postgresql can be found under /repositories/server:/.
i'm not running a production LAMP server, but use it for development to be deployed on a webhost. therefore i need the same versions that are used on that webhost, and often these are earlier than those included in OSS. a while ago i had to compile PHP from source therefore, which isn't a huge problem, but a nuisance.
from my point of view, different versions of apache2, php, etc., would be useful to choose from. what's your use case?
I just run my home web server. I try to keep my system as default as possible to avoid updating problems, so I install basically from OSS. I do other basic stuff on this single machine so I need some stuff from NON OSS and Packman, too, but all the server software is from the default repos. I also run a few guest OS:s on VirtualBox on this machine Current repos are just those mentioned. I would just like to have a "continuously rolling" up-to-date server with no need to big upgrading steps. In my dreams the kernel is also updated on-the-fly, without booting, I just dream of once "installing it and then forgetting about it" -- Vahis -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
