I'm not using this or VestaCP anymore, so I can't confirm if still working or not.

I've made a new web template to make Laravel work easily on VestaCP, and so I wouldn't have to change my Laravel installation, if I ever wanted to deploy it elsewhere.

Each file should be put in /usr/local/vesta/data/templates/web/apache2

Then, when you edit your domain/site, you can change the web template to Laravel and just upload your whole project into public_html

This guide shows how to set up a PHP and MySQL development environment using OSX's built-in Apache, using Homebrew to install necessary components. With this strategy, you can use different versions of PHP for certain virtual hosts.

VirtualHostX is a convenient way to manage development sites, but not required.

Install PHP and MySQL with Homebrew

brew update
brew install php56
brew install php56-mcrypt
brew install mysql

I posted several talks about compiling PHP from source, but everyone was trying to convince me that a package manager like Homebrew was a more convenient way to install.

The purpose of Homebrew is simple: a package manager for macOS that will allow you to set up and install common packages easily and allows you to update frequently using simple commands.

I used a clean installation of macOS Sierra to ensure all steps could be recorded and tested. In most cases you already have done work on your Mac, so chances are you can skip a few steps in this tutorial.

Apache and PHP with homebrew

I’ve made this according to the installation instructions given on GetGrav.

XAMPP - Replacing MariaDB with MySQL

As of XAMPP 5.5.30 and 5.6.14, XAMPP ships MariaDB instead of MySQL. MariaDB is not 100% compatible with MySQL and can be replaced with the "orginal" MySQL server.

Requirements

• Windows
• XAMPP for Windows

WannaCry|WannaDecrypt0r NSA-Cyberweapon-Powered Ransomware Worm

• Virus Name: WannaCrypt, WannaCry, WanaCrypt0r, WCrypt, WCRY
• Vector: All Windows versions before Windows 10 are vulnerable if not patched for MS-17-010. It uses EternalBlue MS17-010 to propagate.
• Ransom: between $300 to $600. There is code to 'rm' (delete) files in the virus. Seems to reset if the virus crashes.
• Backdooring: The worm loops through every RDP session on a system to run the ransomware as that user. It also installs the DOUBLEPULSAR backdoor. It corrupts shadow volumes to make recovery harder. (source: malwarebytes)
• Kill switch: If the website www.iuqerfsodp9ifjaposdfjhgosurijfaewrwergwea.com is up the virus exits instead of infecting the host. (source: malwarebytes). This domain has been sinkholed, stopping the spread of the worm. Will not work if proxied (source).

update: A minor variant of the viru
