Hangs for me @:
Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local) [OK]
Does nothing after that, been sitting there for at least 10 minutes. Any idea of the problem? I’m using VMware Player, downloaded yesterday.

It’s not “hanged”. It’s working. You should be able to access it via SSH (or any other service). If you press “Enter” or pressing alt-f? ( to change ttys) you should be able to see the user/password prompt.
At the moment, I don’t know what causes this behaviour but I’ve read about other Ubuntu users experiencing the same issue.

Thank you very much. It worked. Appreciate your work on these releases, I think they’re going to come in handy for me.

Thanks 4 your work.
I’m aproaching LAMP.
Have You ever thougth to make a tutorial/faq on installing/configuring a Lamp server?
Do you know any good (existing) faq?
How can I “play” with “UbuntuWebServer Virtual Appliance V1.2″ after starting it with vmPlayer? Example: testing a little php application.
thanks and congrats once again.

There are a lot of tutorials/faqs out there. Try howtoforge (http://www.howtoforge.com). Ubuntu server has an option for installing a LAMP server during the initial install so that’s easy. Whenever you need any particular piece of configuration you can just google it and the Apache, MySQL and PHP sites have documentation which is often helpful.
You might want to get v1.4 which includes an FTP server to make it easier to get your websites on the server. Some clients (such as dreamweaver) support automatic uploading to the server via http://FTP. Otherwise you’ll need an ssh client (for Windows try WinSCP). Copy your php files to /var/www on the server.
To check the (virtual) server IP address, login in the vmware window and type
# ifconfig eth0 | grep “inet addr”
Then you can use the address to connect via SSH (or FTP) to put the files on the server and view them in the browser using that IP address.
If you upload an index.php file to /var/www you can access it on your browser at http://IP_ADDRESS/
