Brian Leonard and Marina Sum report on installing Sun Web Stack on the OpenSolaris OS.

• Apache software
• MySQL database
• PHP scripting language
• Python programming language
• Tomcat servlet container
• Subversion version control system
• Concurrent Versions System (CVS)
• Squid caching proxy
• memcached memory caching system
• NetBeans IDE
