Vagrant provision script for php, Apache, MySQL, phpMyAdmin, Laravel, and javascript helpers. Tested with Ubuntu 16.04.

install_mysql.sh

#! /usr/bin/env bash

###
#
# install_mysql.sh
#
# This script assumes your Vagrantfile has been configured to map the root of
# your application to /vagrant and that your web root is the "public" folder
# (Laravel standard).  Standard and error output is sent to
# /vagrant/vm_build.log during provisioning.

@rrosiek

Can someone explain to me why he sets "phpmyadmin phpmyadmin/reconfigure-webserver multiselect none"? His script works and I'm able to load phpmyadmin, but just so I can understand whats happening here why doesn't he choose the apache2 flag instead? How does it still get configured to work in this case? Sorry im completely new at this.
