Bitnami Coppermine Module is a free and multiplatform software project, a module for the Bitnami LAMP, WAMP and MAMP stack, specially designed for the Coppermine web-based application. Bitnami’s native installers and modules automate the setup of a Bitnami application stack on GNU/Linux, Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows operating systems.
What is Coppermine?
Coppermine is an open source, multi-purpose, full-featured web picture gallery script written in PHP using ImageMagick or GD as image library and MySQL as backend. It includes user management, private galleries, automatic thumbnail creation, an ecard feature and a template system for easy customization to match the rest of a website.
Installing Bitnami Coppermine Module
The Bitnami Coppermine Module product is distributed on Softpedia free of charge, as native installers for the mainstream operating systems, supporting both 32-bit and 64-bit (recommended) hardware platforms.
To deploy the Coppermine application on top of your existing Bitnami LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP) Stack, Bitnami WAMP (Windows, Apache, MySQL and PHP) Stack or Bitnami MAMP (Mac, Apache, MySQL and PHP) Stack, you should download the file that corresponds to your computer’s hardware architecture, run it and follow the on-screen instructions.
Run Coppermine in the cloud and virtualize it
In addition to deploying the Coppermine application on top of a Bitnami LAMP, MAMP or WAMP stack, you can also run it in the cloud using Bitnami’s pre-built cloud images for the Amazon EC2 and Windows Azure cloud hosting services, as well as to virtualize it, thanks to Bitnami’s virtual appliance for the VMware ESX, ESXi and Oracle VirtualBox virtualization software, based on the latest LTS release of Ubuntu Linux.
The Bitnami Coppermine Stack and Docker container
Besides the Bitnami Coppermine Module product reviewed here, Bitnami also offers an all-in-one solution that greatly simplifies the installation and hosting of the Coppermine application, as well as of its runtime dependencies, on personal computers. A Coppermine Docker container will also be available for download on the project’s website.
