How to install LAMP on centos 6.2

I am very new to this. I am trying to install LAMP on centOS 6.2 using yum -y install php

but I am getting this error

Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6&arch=x86_64&repo=os error was
14: PYCURL ERROR 6 - "Couldn't resolve host 'mirrorlist.centos.org'"
Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base

Is there something I have to do before installing?

below error shows that your DNS configuration is not working as expected. check your internet connection

Could not resolve host 'mirrorlist.centos.org'



if you can ping or dig in the result like below.

ping mirrorlist.centos.org

dig mirrorlist.centos.org

had the same problem, i am using centOS7 but i will tell you how i fixed it if it helps.

try changing your network config file:

vi etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

eth0 is the default name, but it doesn't always have to be like my

vi etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s3

Note: when you open a file with vi, you need to press i (insert mode) to be able to enter and edit eddit.



When you open it, you will see multiple lines with yes - no assertions

I moved ONBOOT=yes

toONBOOT=no

Note: when you're done, you need to press ESC to exit insert mode and type the following: :wq

press enter and save.

You will be returned to the terminal, from here type dhclient

hit enter and try running the command againyum -y install php

If you get the same type of error reboot

to reboot the system and when it comes back again, enter dhclient

and try again.

This worked for me for now, hope it works for you too.
