Apparently 20.04 has changed enough since you wrote this that it no longer works. mariadb no longer installs, mysql-mariadb fails to start after installation. I'm aborting here. Nice thought though, wish it would have worked.
That's not an issue in the tutorial, MariaDB installs fine using the commands from the guide, tested it right after you posted your comment. Have a look at the /var/log/syslog file of your system to find out why it fails on your server. It might be that you don't have enough RAM or something similar. If you need help to set up your system, please make a post in the forum here at howtoforge with the detailed error message from syslog file.
I so wanted this to work, but it doesn't. Three show stopper issues mostly having to do with authentication or lack therof. Found answers to one of them via Google and one just looking up the program using synaptic to find the version that will actually install. In the end, apache will not contact the database and I'm uninstalling all of it.
Thank you for trying, it is a very cool thing and I wish it had worked for me.
Hey! Great installation instructions. Trouble is I failed at the end with certbot because I don't have a domain name open to the Internet i.e. my server is behind my ISP. Do I need to sort a domain name and/or DNS server or is there a workaround? I'm just using it within the LAN.
But thanks again. I can see it all working fine.

Dear Hitesh,
Thank you for your nice tutorial. After a couple of attempts, I succesfully installed ampache.
Good job!
This no longer works for Ampache 5.3.1. mv rest/.htaccess.dist rest/.htaccess
does not exist at the location specified in the instructions.
