Before beginning, a domain, an ESC or a VPS are needed. Once the ECS or the VPS and the domain are prepared, the following procedures can be conducted.
Detailed steps are as followings:
· Install LAMP services (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP).
input these commands:
1. Install Apache, MySQL, and PHP
yum -y install httpd mysql mysql-server php php-mysql php-gd php-xml

systemctl enable httpd.service

· Updated on 7.26.2018 mysqld.service failed to start.
yum install mariadb-server mariadb -y
systemctl start mariadb.service
systemctl enable mariadb.service
· Updated on 3.2.2019 Applying php7x, old method no longer used.
Install mariadb
yum install mariadb-server mariadb -y

mysql> create database wordpress; //create a database and name it as ‘wordpress’
· Getting MySQL Support In PHP
yum -y install php-mysql
yum -y install php-gd php-ldap php-odbc php-pear php-xml php-xmlrpc php-mbstring php-soap curl curl-devel
systemctl restart httpd.service
· Install phpMyAdmin
sudo yum install phpMyAdmin -y
vim /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf

yum install httpd
yum install httpd-devel
yum install php php-pear
· Install WordPress
wget http://wordpress.org/latest.zip
unzip latest.zip
cp -r wordpress/* /var/www/html/
cd /var/www/html/
cp wp-config-sample.php wp-config.php
vim wp-config.php
Press ‘i’ to write, insert database name, user name and user password. Others remain the same.
Press ‘Esc’ to exit writing mode. Double press ‘Shift’ + ‘z’ to exit the file.
Then, go to your domain to finish WordPress set up.
I used Wanwang to register a domain and Aliyun to set up an ECS. The discounts for students and Double 11th are very attractive. As for the other services in its store, I have not used them yet.
