How to setup AEM on a ubuntu VM for a POC of website

Hi All,

 

Currently I am trying to setup an AEM website on a ubuntu VM machine. What steps I need to follow for doing this:
1. I have Apache tomcat installed on port 8080
2. Apache httpd server on port 80 (for dispatcher) Not sure how to setup this. Did not find proper instruction for setting up dispatcher using Apache httpd on Linux. (Where I can download dispatcher file, Do I need to request dispatcher file from Adobe for Linux??)
3. AEM 6.5 standalone install jar file.
 
Thanks in Advance!

My below articles will give you an overview of the setup:

Setting up Dispatcher: Try using docker for easy setup but you'll get an idea from this article if you want to setup dispatcher by itself.
