Zend Server 6 is the latest Application Server for PHP development supported and distributed by Zend, it's an awesome piece of software the lets you deploy and manage your PHP apps in no time.
There are tons of new features on this version compared to what we had previously on ZS 5. Totally recommended!
Below i'm describing how to install it on Ubuntu Server 13.04:
login on your server as root:
1) edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file and add the following entry:
deb http://repos.zend.com/zend-server/6.1/deb_ssl1.0 server non-free
*Note: this repo will also work with Ubuntu 12.04/12.10
update your repositories
# apt-get update
add the public key with this command:
# wget http://repos.zend.com/zend.key -O- |apt-key add -
and finally, install the packages :
# apt-get install install zend-server-ce-php-<PHP Version> (*it can be 5.3 or 5.4, running this command will also install apache)
that's all folks! easy, right?
To access the ZS admin interface, open a browser and type in http://127.0.0.1:10081
Enjoy!
