Complete!
Step 6: Once all the packages are installed, start and enable Apache, PHP-FPM, and MariaDB services using the following command
[root@linuxhelp ~]# systemctl start httpd mariadb php-fpm
[root@linuxhelp ~]# systemctl enable httpd mariadb php-fpm
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/httpd.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.service.
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/mysql.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service.
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/mysqld.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service.
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/mariadb.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service.
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/php-fpm.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/php-fpm.service.
Step 7: Create a Database for WordPress by using the below command.First, connect to the MariaDB with the following command
[root@linuxhelp ~]# mysql
Welcome to the MariaDB monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MariaDB connection id is 8
Server version: 10.3.35-MariaDB MariaDB Server
Copyright (c) 2000, 2018, Oracle, MariaDB Corporation Ab and others.
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the current input statement.
Step 8: Once you are connected, create a database and user with the following command
MariaDB [(none)]> CREATE DATABASE wordpressdb;
MariaDB [(none)]> CREATE USER `wordpressuser`@`localhost` IDENTIFIED BY 'Linuxc#4';
Step 9 : grant all the privileges to the WordPress database using the following command
GRANT ALL ON wordpressdb.* TO `wordpressuser`@`localhost`;
Step 10: flush the privileges and exit from the MariaDB with the following command
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;
Step 11: Next, change the directory to the Apache default web root directory and download the latest version of WordPress with the following command
[root@linuxhelp ~]# cd /var/www/html
[root@linuxhelp ~]# curl https://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz --output wordpress.tar.gz
Step 11: Once the download is completed, extract the downloaded file with the following command
[root@linuxhelp ~]# tar xf wordpress.tar.gz
Step 12: change the directory to WordPress and rename the WordPress configuration file:
[root@linuxhelp ~]# cd wordpress
[root@linuxhelp wordpress ~]# mv wp-config-sample.php wp-config.php
Step 13: edit the WordPress configuration file and define your database settings:
[root@linuxhelp wordpress ~]# vim wp-config.php
Change the following lines
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define( 'DB_NAME', 'wordpressdb' );
/** Database username */
define( 'DB_USER', 'wordpressuser' );
/** Database password */
define( 'DB_PASSWORD', 'Linuxc#4' );
Step 14 : set proper ownership of the WordPress directory with the following command:
[root@linuxhelp wordpress ~]# chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/wordpress
[root@linuxhelp wordpress ~]# chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/wordpress
Step 15: Next, you will need to create an Apache virtual host file to host the WordPress. You can create it with the following command
[root@linuxhelp ~]# vim /etc/httpd/conf.d/wordpress.conf
Add the following lines:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin root@localhost
ServerName wordpress.linuxhelp.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/wordpress
<Directory "/var/www/html/wordpress">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/wordpress_error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/wordpress_access.log common
</VirtualHost>
Step 16: Save and close the file, then restart the Apache service to apply the configuration changes:
[root@linuxhelp ~]# systemctl restart httpd
Step 17:Access WordPress Installer Now, open your web browser and access the WordPress installer using the URL //wordpress.linuxhelp.com.
Step 18: Provide your site information and click on the Install WordPress button
Step 19: Click on the Log In button.
