I spent about two hours on installing LRR to a bare, remote Ubuntu server (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS). I spent about two hours on installing LRR to a bare, remote Ubuntu server (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS).
LRR needs Apache and MySQL to run. I followed [How To Install Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP (LAMP) stack on Ubuntu 20.04] (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-linux-apache-mysql-php-lamp-stack-on-ubuntu-20-04) to set up these server applications.

LRR uses a database called `lrr`. I need to export existing `lrr` to a plain text file (including many sql commands) and import that text file to the newly created `lrr` database on the new server.

The command for exporting the database is `mysqldump -u mnc -p lrr > lrr_database_dump.txt`. The command for exporting the database is `mysqldump -u mnc -p lrr > lrr_database_dump.txt`.
The command for importing is `mysql -u mnc -p lrr < lrr_database_dump.txt`.

LRR also needs to store assignment submissions. We store them in a folder called `../../lrr_submission`. Note that `lrr_submission` is two levels above the project folder (where many PHP files locate). I copied this folder from the existing one. I think it is also OK if you create an empty folder.
