Day 45 Task: Deploy Wordpress website on AWS

Over 30% of all websites on the internet use WordPress as their content management system (CMS). It is most often used to run blogs, but it can also be used to run e-commerce sites, message boards, and many other popular things. This guide will show you how to set up a WordPress blog site.

Task-01

• As WordPress requires a MySQL database to store its data, create an RDS as you did on Day 44
  Login to the Aws console and go to RDS to create a database.

  

  Name your database.

  

  Created database.

  Now create an instance for WordPress.

  

  

  Now connect your instance and update the system then install MySQL
  sudo apt install mysql-client
mysql -h <endpoint-name> -P <port-name> -u <username> -p

  

CREATE DATABASE wordpress;
CREATE USER 'wordpress' IDENTIFIED BY 'wordpress-pass';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON wordpress.* TO wordpress;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Exit

Check whether your database was created or not

To configure this WordPress site, you will create the following resources in AWS:

• An Amazon EC2 instance to install and host the WordPress application.
  Now install Apache on your EC2 instance for WordPress run.
  use sudo apt-get install apache2

  

  Check whether your instance ip apache web server is working or not.

  

• An Amazon RDS for MySQL database to store your WordPress data.

• Set up the server and post your new WordPress app.
  Now Download and uncompress the software by using the below commands.

    wget https://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz 
    tar -xzf latest.tar.gz
  

  

  Now extract the tar file.

    tar -xvzf latest.tar.gz
  

  Now change the directory and copy the default configuration file

    cd wordpress
    cp wp-config-sample.php wp-config.php
  

  Now edit the wp-config.php file

    vim wp-config.php
  

  

  Now edit the Authentication Unique keys and salts.
  http://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt

    define('AUTH_KEY',         'N[D)?+J-}Wx<c*jX$AuW!pz>2{M[>_YT- 7tY`aT3y;*F! _LeM}Kj[t4o2v3qMm');
    define('SECURE_AUTH_KEY',  '9+>M!va% jq|B|f>kc9saFwE-cS|9-4B$xGu+2pI&3yis%-zzka =TAxq]+.Q7Fp');
    define('LOGGED_IN_KEY',    '>s4a)kHXSc(~i|$/P}SgvJPBiFp+tET.xdaW4Y%3mR~#P6;GK B)oADegQK#u)gV');
    define('NONCE_KEY',        'W-3_,k/oZcX.Mg6![$epnW@r/@z*9B@P=p#=mSIF-R9Z9X.Q+2-[+%L`]qBOQ++h');
    define('AUTH_SALT',        '<UFNBNl<x:%EuS#K+p-__>[EtE-tea]xP6-i_wz$8[%uU>>ia2_]z)-`MA}i,T8q');
    define('SECURE_AUTH_SALT', 'I`|%6X&* 0I-W%^^NlHN^{jg6`J;[^h))&?-R4&OfyF!U_^hh?P@+-:iqdgeI%AJ');
    define('LOGGED_IN_SALT',   'g96e[e61f|BG MUHkk~]Yoy%lyVHvS)5CAEjJ3]#^?ZB@~y2R<a/OM0d&ezwv.FN');
    define('NONCE_SALT',       ',FI>G~/$`NFqoAO?U~Lsw[Ko{ubrN&-]N$HT4s+U4<s0W(v9]f(bn1r_`OjV#LMH');
  

  

  Deploy the WordPress site and install dependencies.

    sudo apt install php libapache2-mod-php php-mysql -y
  

  Copy the WordPress file to the Apache root directory.

    cd ..
    sudo cp -r wordpress/* /var/www/html/
    sudo systemctl restart apache2
