In this tutorial, I will show how you can have a LAMP server in seconds with a program calls bitmana which is:

Scalable: you can upsize & downsize with ease. It also has automatic scaling. Low costs (from less than $1/month): https://bitmana.io/pricing Fast and secure but easy to operate Download

Open Laragon's Terminal and type:

bitmana

If you see an error, you need to download bitmana:

curl -OL https://github.com/bitmanahq/bitmana/releases/download/1.1.20210422/bitmana-windows-386.exe && move bitmana-windows-386.exe C:/laragon/bin/bitmana.exe

Change C:/laragon/ to your Laragon's installation dir if needed.

Steps: Open Laragon's Terminal, and type: bitmana link YOUR-EMAIL

YOUR-EMAIL: You need to register an accout at: https://app.bitmana.io
Input your password and press Enter
It will authenticate your system with bitmana.io

Create a LAMP server: bitmana cs lamp

lamp = LAMP stack. Just a few seconds, you have a server with Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP, composer

Note your NODE_ID -> Id: xxxxx

By default, your server is secure, to expose port 80, type: bitmana expose NODE_ID 80

Note the exposed Url

Browser the exposed Url, you'll see something like this: Welcome to Bitmana! If you see this page, the web server is successfully installed and working.

It's cool, huh.
Because your system is authenticated with bitmana.io, you can also ssh to the server with ease: bitmana ssh NODE_ID
or run commands without accessing your server bitmana exec NODE_ID "service apache2 status; composer --version"
or type bitmana info to list your servers.

You can type: bitmana for more commands.

I will help to create a similar system like Laragon on Linux in next tutorials.

Hi leokhoa, first of all thank you SOOO much you have ended 3 months of spending half my time tweaking local settings in 4 other setups. (Windows 10)

I added Laragon's SSL certificate by using Menu > Apache > SSL > Add to Trust Store

But, FireFox still gives error:

mysite.test uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because it is self-signed. Error code: MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_SELF_SIGNED_CERT

I can see the certificate in Windows' Certificate Manager under "Trusted Root Certification Authorities/Certificates". Might not be a problem while working in WordPress.

TIA

heidisql should have intellisence !

How can I set up a proper or simulated cron job for WordPress every 5 minutes?

*/15 * * * * wget -q -O - http://yourdomain.com/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron

Alternatively, I'd settle for a way to run a Cavalcade Runner via profilec autorun.

https://github.com/humanmade/Cavalcade/blob/master/docs/install.md

Both would be best so I can simulate the real environments our code would run on.

PS. I love 💕 Laragon, great work. As a plugin developer who has nearly 600k sites using our products, its always been hard setting up local testing environments with mutliple versions of apache/mysql/php, have never had that issue with Laragon in the past 2+ years.

Hi, first of all thanks for this awsome work.

As you know seting CRON jobs are pain on windows. Is there a way to make it easy with laragon?

And for example on laravel you can create queue's as you know,
When you want to use need to run artisan command(s) and in real world example (as far as i know) on linux systems you need to set up supervisor service's for this type of things.

If is it possible laragon has able to handle with these it would be awsome ?

Again thanks for awsome work.
God Bless You.

Sorry for that, but I'm just new to creating MySQL databases locally..
Please, give step-by-step hint how to create a MySQL base using terminal or PHPMyAdmin..
Sorry for such questions, before I created databases on a real server by PHPMyAdmin, and it is quite simple there.
In laragon, when trying to create a database in terminal by the command "mysqladmin -u root create 'homestead" , I got this:

mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'

Please, explain how to set a password for a new database?
And where may I find the ".env" file ?
Thank you so much!

Hi guys,
I tried to type IPv4 and yes it can get to the localhost.
But how can I get to project.dev?

I'd made several local sites, some with very complicated localhost configurations. Then today I needed to make one of them run on HTTPS. I turned on SSL in Apache in the Laragon control panel, and it deleted all of my virtual hosts — my 00-default.conf has just the root site in it and there are no other files. I don't know if it damaged anything else. Is there any way to get them back?

It is very simple to use FFMpeg with Laragon. Here's how:

Download the binaries:
https://github.com/BtbN/FFmpeg-Builds/releases/download/autobuild-2021-06-01-13-18/ffmpeg-n4.4-19-g8d172d9409-win64-gpl-4.4.zip Unzip and move the 3 files in bin to C:\laragon\bin ffmpeg.exe ffplay.exe ffprobe.exe Open Laragon's Terminal Menu > Laragon > Terminal and check: ffmpeg -v

You should use FFMpeg in your PHP code with library like:
https://github.com/PHP-FFMpeg/PHP-FFMpeg

Hello in the round and good morning...

Last Friday I shut down my machine with win 10x64 prof 19041.985 and laragon normally after work. On Monday morning laragon no longer starts. to be more precise, the db server no longer starts. I am also unable to fix the error or find the cause.

I tried the following

I tried to install a new db server version, (before that, mysql 5.7.24 and mariadb 10.5.9 was running properly), i've installed mysql 8.0.25 from zip -> without success i've installed new mariadb 10.5.10 from zip ->without success I followed these steps: https://forum.laragon.org/topic/1884/new-install-of-laragon-mysql-fails-after-a-few-seconds-on-startup ->no result I ran sfc /scannow ->there were a few errors I ran dsim ->with success I ran sfc again ->no errors I've installed mariadb 10.5.10 from zip -> no sucess I've removed the whole data folder -> no success I ran mysqld --tc-heuristic-recover=COMMIT -> no success I ran mysqld --tc-heuristic-recover=ROLLBACK -> no success

I am getting these errors at any time:

Hello, Leokhoa!
You know, I came upon the same problem, as 2 years ago..
I installed your new release of Laragon: https://github.com/leokhoa/laragon/releases/download/5.0.0/laragon-wamp.exe
And when starting Apache, I got the same error messages:
" libssh2.dll and icuuc66.dll are missing "
Last time I updated apache and php, it had solved the problem, but now updating didn't help.
What to do in that case, can you give an advice, please?

Windows 7 X64 Pro

Thank you!

Can not load phpmyadmin as it is giving an error when i enable opcache in php extensions

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class 'PhpMyAdmin\MoTranslator\Loader' not found in C:\laragon\etc\apps\phpMyAdmin\libraries\common.inc.php:96 Stack trace: #0 C:\laragon\etc\apps\phpMyAdmin\index.php(27): require_once() #1 {main} thrown in C:\laragon\etc\apps\phpMyAdmin\libraries\common.inc.php on line 96

Hi, I'm a new Laragon user. I was using Locals but now all that simplifications are not good to me.
One thing that I've loved of Locals was the ability to export a website (files+sql) and import it in another locals installation.
I used to work on two machine so this was a really handy feature.
Now.
I'm not afraid to use cmd line tool but the question is:

Is there a .bat, a command to export a wp website file and sql (maybe gzipped) and than import it without export the first the sq and then zip the www folder?

thank you in advance

In Laragon 3, I can change the default application for database to my preferred application (in my case is adminer) but in Laragon 4.0.13, it is missing this feature. Please help.

Here is my setting in usr\laragon.ini

[buttons] Database=Adminer: "http://localhost:8000/adminer/"

You can read about Procfile here at Heroku: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/procfile

However, Laragon makes Procfile more convenient to use with GUI. On Laragon all processes on Procfile will be displayed on Menu > Laragon
Some other differences on Laragon are:

A process name can have spaces. For example: My Cool App You can add autorun to make the process auto triggered when Laragon starts You can hide (don't show Console) a process if you quote its command. For example: "php artisan serve" You can set PWD=xxx - xxx is Path of current processs You can have env_file=yyy - yyy is Path to your Environment File.

Here is format of a Procfile:

# Format: ; Program Name: autorun COMMANDS env_file=PATH_OF_FILE pwd=PATH_OF_WORKING_DIR ENV_VAR1=VALUE ENV_VAR2="VALUE WITH SPACE" # Help: ; Program Name: Will be displayed on Procfile or Tools' Menu (can contains space) ; autorun: Your COMMANDS will be run automatically when Laragon starts ; COMMANDS: A command or a series of commands (separated by & ) ; env_file: You can set environment variables directly or put them to the file ; PWD: Current working directory - where the COMMANDS run # Examples: ; My Cool App: autorun node start $PORT PORT=9000 env_file=usr\my_file.env PWD=usr/proj/myapp DB_HOST=1.2.3.4 DB_PORT=9999 DB_USER=user DB_PASS="!$Ab.cs3cre1" DB_NAME=cooldb ; Awesome Tool: "PATH HAS SPACES SHOULD BE QUOTED LIKE THIS" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note:

pwd is case-insensitive. autorun is case-insensitive. Your env_file may look like this: VAR1="VALUE WITH SPACE" DB_HOST=1.2.3.4 DB_PORT=9999 DB_USER=user DB_PASS=!$Ab.cs3cre1

Re: Replace HeidiSQL I followed these exact same instructions, only for a different DB client and path (yes, I 'quoted' the path but it doesn't matter because there are no spaces). This no longer works, at least in Laragon 'Full' version 4.x. I put that command in laragon.ini but no button shows up. In a last-ditch effort to make it work, I then copied my DB client code into the 'heidisql' folder in Laragon to see if that would somehow work. The 'HeidiSQL' button then disappeared so I can confirm that won't work either.
So, how can we add our preferred DB clients to Laragon. I've also tried the Procfile way but that didn't work either. There are no messages in the laragon.log. As info, my ini entry is:
[buttons] Database=SQLyog: C:\laragon\bin\sqlyog\SQLyog.exe . That is pretty much identical to wht you told the person wanting Navicat to do.

I wanted to say Thank You for the upgrade BOSS !

Just curious though if you have anytime is it possible to include varnish ....
So then with all of them working together varnish, redis, memcached apache, nginx with mariadb, perhaps a quick youtube tutorial on getting them to work together would be awesome with a Domain with SSL

Re: Database prefix field during WordPress quick install.

Hello, I am quite new to Laragon and already like that you can use it in a portable mode and can install WordPress so quickly. I came across that on creating an environment via Quick app>WordPress, WordPress already gets the database details delivered, but always uses the usual wp_ prefix for tables. Is there a way to change that, i.e. give it a pattern or use the project name for the prefix?

Thanks for your help in advance!
