在 Ubuntu 下安装“魔灯”教学平台

This is a step-by-step guide on how to install Moodle ("Magic Lamp") on Ubuntu 16.04. Moodle (abbreviation for Modular-object-oriented dynamic learning environment) is a free and open source learning management system for teachers, students and administrators Provide a personalized learning environment. Moodle is created by the Moodle Project and is led and coordinated by Moodle Headquarters[1].

Moodle has many very practical functions, such as:

In this tutorial, we will guide you to install the latest version of Moodle using Apache web server, MySQL and PHP 7 on Ubuntu 16.04 VPS. (LCTT Translation: The installation on subsequent versions of Ubuntu is also similar.)

1. Log in via SSH

First, use the root user to log in to Ubuntu 16.04 VPS via SSH:

ssh root@IP_Address -p Port_number

Copy after login

2. Update operating system software package

Run the following commands to update system packages and install some dependent software:

apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
apt-get install git-core graphviz aspell

Copy after login

3. Install Apache Web server

Use the following command to install the Apache Web server from the Ubuntu software repository:

apt-get install apache2

Copy after login

4. Start the Apache Web server

Once installed, start Apache and enable it to start automatically at system startup, using the following command:

systemctl enable apache2

Copy after login

5. Install PHP 7

Next, we will install some additional PHP modules required for PHP 7 and Moodle, the command is:

apt-get install php7.0 libapache2-mod-php7.0 php7.0-pspell php7.0-curl php7.0-gd php7.0-intl php7.0-mysql php7.0-xml php7.0-xmlrpc php7.0-ldap php7.0-zip

Copy after login

6. Install and configure the MySQL database server

Moodle stores most of its data in a database, so we will install the MySQL database server using the following command:

apt-get install mysql-client mysql-server

Copy after login

After the installation is complete, run the

mysql_secure_installation script to configure MySQL's root password to ensure MySQL security.

root user, and create a database for Moodle and a user who can access it. The following are the specific instructions:

mysql -u root -p
mysql> CREATE DATABASE moodle;
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON moodle.* TO 'moodleuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'PASSWORD';
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
mysql> \q

Copy after login

Be sure to remember to replace the above

PASSWORD with a strong password.

7. Get Moodle from GitHub repository

Next, switch the current working directory and copy Moodle from the official GitHub repository:

cd /var/www/html/
git clone https://github.com/moodle/moodle.git

Copy after login

Switch to the

moodle directory and check all available branches:

cd moodle/
git branch -a

Copy after login

Select the latest stable version (currently

MOODLE_34_STABLE) and run the following command to tell git which branch can be tracked or used:

git branch --track MOODLE_34_STABLE origin/MOODLE_34_STABLE

Copy after login

and switch to this specific version:

git checkout MOODLE_34_STABLE

Switched to branch 'MOODLE_34_STABLE'
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/MOODLE_34_STABLE'.

Copy after login

Create a directory for storing Moodle data:

mkdir /var/moodledata

Copy after login

Set its ownership and access rights correctly:

chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/moodle
chown www-data:www-data /var/moodledata

Copy after login

8. Configure Apache Web server

使用以下内容为您的域名创建 Apache 虚拟主机：

nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/yourdomain.com.conf

    ServerAdmin admin@yourdomain.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/moodle
    ServerName yourdomain.com
    ServerAlias www.yourdomain.com

    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    allow from all

    ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/yourdomain.com-error_log
    CustomLog /var/log/httpd/yourdomain.com-access_log common

Copy after login

保存文件并启用虚拟主机：

a2ensite yourdomain.com

Enabling site yourdomain.com.
To activate the new configuration, you need to run:
 service apache2 reload

Copy after login

最后，重启 Apache Web 服务器，以使配置生效：

service apache2 reload

Copy after login

9、接下来按照提示完成安装

现在，点击 “http://yourdomain.com”（LCTT 译注：在浏览器的地址栏里输入以上域名以访问 Apache WEB 服务器），按照提示完成 Moodle 的安装。有关如何配置和使用 Moodle 的更多信息，您可以查看其官方文档[2]。

如果您使用我们的优化的 Moodle 托管主机服务[3]，您不必在 Ubuntu 16.04 上安装 Moodle，在这种情况下，您只需要求我们的专业 Linux 系统管理员在 Ubuntu 16.04 上安装和配置最新版本的 Moodle。他们将提供 24×7 及时响应的服务。
