UoL LAMP Server
Overview
The University of Leicester provides LAMP servers with a standard set of services, but some restrictions on what a user can do. The servers sit behind a Pound proxy. For more information about LAMP servers see the UoL LAMP Wiki.
For advanced management, contact the University Helpdesk.
Layout
All the files that a user requires to change are in the /local directory. This directory contains the perl, python, apache and tomcat config settings and log files. It is also where you must install new libraries for [Python] and [PHP]. This is documented in the UoL LAMP Wiki.
Backup and Restore
The LAMP servers are backed up hourly automatically as part of the LAMP service, although no separate database back up is taken.
To restore from a back up, contact the University Helpdesk.
