Latest WordPress Installation On Latest Centos 7 Without Cpanel/WHM - Onlive Server

This article will walk you through How to install WordPress on CentOS7 server.

1. Start with your server login via SSH or KVM, via root.

2. Disable selinux.

setenforce 0

sed -i ‘s/enforcing/disabled/g’ /etc/selinux/config

3. Now run the following command to install all the needed packages for your LAMP stack, which will host the WordPress website.

yum install httpd php php-common php-mysqlnd php-mbstring php-gd mariadb-server mod_ssl -y

4. The  next step is updating the Apache config to allow for htaccess to be used.

sed -i ‘s/AllowOverride none/AllowOverride all/g’ /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

5. Now start Apache & MySQL on the server.

systemctl start httpd && systemctl start mariadb

6. You should now be able to confirm that Apache is started by going to either the domain name you have pointed to the server or your server IP address. In this example, we are using the server IP address.

7. Create the MySQL database and user for WordPress, enter the mysql command to get to a prompt ( select a different password to the below one, just make sure it is safe!).  

mysql

CREATE DATABASE wordpress;

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON wordpress.* TO ‘wordpress’@’localhost’ IDENTIFIED BY    

‘Eh4wph8WItSO’;

8. Download and put into place the newest version of WordPress.

curl -O https://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz

tar zxvf latest.tar.gz

mkdir /var/www/html/

mv wordpress/* /var/www/html/

9. Update the permissions so that we can upload files through the WordPress control panel.

chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html

10. To complete the WordPress installation, go to your website URL or IP address in the browser. There will be following pages you should go through to complete the install. On the following page you need to enter the details that you used earlier when creating the MySQL database.  

        

11. Your website is now setup and ready to login to. If you go to your URL or server IP   address you can see a basic WordPress installation. You can login to your WordPress admin control panel at http://IP-ADDRESS/wp-admin/.
