LAMP Quicklist

Will it work on Ubuntu 11.10 ? Im still using 11.10. Your screenshot looks like you are on Ub 12.04 – Curious Apprentice May 10 '12 at 14:19

have a look at webmin
If you are using the DEB version of webmin, first download the file from the downloads page , or run the command :
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin_1.580_all.deb
then run the command :
dpkg --install webmin_1.580_all.deb
The install will be done automatically to /usr/share/webmin, the administration username set to root and the password to your current root password. You should now be able to login to Webmin at the URL https://localhost:10000/. Or if accessing it remotely, replace localhost with your system's IP address. [Make sure u prefix https and not http]
If Debian complains about missing dependencies, you can install them with the command :
sudo apt-get install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libpam-runtime libio-pty-perl apt-show-versions python
If you are installing on Ubuntu and the apt-get command reports that some of the packages cannot be found, edit /etc/apt/sources.list and make sure the lines ending with universe are not commented out.

You could try "Bootup-Manager", package name 'bum'. It's similar to the Services Manager for Windows. You can start and stop both MySQL and Apache from there. Click 'Advanced' and go to the services tab.
If I were you, I would create short and simple scripts to start and stop the services instead, then just add launchers for the scripts to your application launcher.

Bootup Manager is the easiest way to start/stop any service from starting automatically. Its similar to "msconfig" on Windows – Curious Apprentice May 13 '12 at 10:56

This is more of a remote control panel but it might work for your needs. It currently only states that it supports CentOS, Red Hat, and Fedora.

"only states that it supports CentOS, Red Hat, and Fedora", no Ubuntu :( – Braiam Oct 26 '13 at 15:12
