How to install Mapserver on Ubuntu?

Question

I try to install MapServer on Ubuntu by follow this tutorial. I was installed libraries and apach. But have a problem with last command:

libtool: install: /usr/bin/install -c /home/user/mapserver /usr/local/bin/mapserv

I have libtool library in system. But its says that directory /home/user/mapserver not exist. When i try:

 libtool install /usr/bin/install -c /home/user/mapserver /usr/local/bin/mapserv

I get:

/usr/bin/install: omitting directory '/home/user/mapserver'

Whats wrong?
PS: first time see Linux OS.

If you are a first time user, you should definitely install mapserver using provided packages rather than compiling from source.

sudo apt-get install mapserver is what you need. If you want a more recent version of mapserver, you should consider adding the ubuntugis repository first:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable
sudo apt-get install cgi-mapserver

• Kliver Max: Its fine i do sudo apt-get install cgi-mapserver and get MapServer.
