==Install Apache2==



: This is the most popular web server software in the world. First see if it is already installed:



# Open Terminal

# Enter:

<code>sudo systemctl status apache2</code>

# If the status is "active", you're done -- Apache is installed and running.



: If the status is "not found", "not active" or words to that effect, proceed as follows:



: See if Apache2 is installed:



# Open Terminal

# Enter:

<code>ls /etc/</code>

# If apache2 is not listed, install it:

# Enter

<code>sudo apt-get update</code>



<code>sudo apt-get install apache2</code>



<code>sudo apache2ctl start</code>



==Your Home Website==



: First, try out your web browser



# Open a Web browser

# In the navigation window, enter "Localhost".

# The "Apache2 Debian Default Page" should be displayed.

# If not, review and repeat the installation steps.



===Where Are My Webpages?===



: Navigate to the ''html'' directory:



# In Terminal, enter:

<code>ls /var/www/html/</code>



: The only file in the /html directory should be ''index.html''. This is the "Apache2 Debian Default Page".



# If you want to save this file for reference, rename it or copy it to another location.

# Create your new homepage and save it as ''index.html'' in the /var/www/html/ directory

# Add whatever other pages and sub-directories you want on your site in this directory.



: You might find it useful to create a link to the ''html'' directory in your home directory.
