#LAMP Stack on CentOS 6.4 Built with Vagrant/Puppet#

For anyone wanting to try out Vagrant, here's some sample code to help you setup your own LAMP dev sandbox quickly. It runs on CentOS 6.4 and the internal setup is done with Puppet.

Do note that the first run might take a while. Depending on your speed, 10 minutes to download the base VM (CentOS 6.4) and 5 minutes to startup and provision the VM. But subsequent startup should be quite fast.

You can spin up new boxes very easily. Just put your PHP scripts in the project folder and add a new vhost. If you are lazy, just throw your PHP files into the project/webroot folder.

Pre-Requisite Software

• VirtualBox (>= 4.3.2) (https://www.virtualbox.org/)
• VirtualBox Extension Pack (https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads)
• Vagrant (>= 1.3.5) (http://vagrantup.com/)
• Librarian-Puppet (https://github.com/rodjek/librarian-puppet)

##Installation Instructions##

1. Install Puppet & Librarian-Puppet

$ sudo gem install puppet $ sudo gem install librarian-puppet

2. Clone this Git Repository

	```bash
$ git clone git@github.com:sgphpug/vagrant-lamp-centos64.git
$ cd vagrant-lamp-centos64

3. Install Puppetfile dependencies

4. Start Vagrant

5. Once startup in complete, point your browser to http://localhost:8080 to make sure Apache is running.

* Whenever you make any changes to `Vagrantfile`, run:

	```bash
$ vagrant reload --provision

Customization
