How To Install WordPress With LAMP Stack | CentOS7

In this tutorial, I will be installing WordPress on my CentOS 7 server with LAMP Stack infrastructure.

A LAMP Stack is a set of open-source software that can be used to create websites and web applications.
The process starts when the Apache web server receives requests for web pages from a user’s browser — PHP file -loads the file and executes the code contained in the file — PHP connect with MySQL to get any data referenced in the code. 

LAMP stack typically consist of:
Linux operating system – (such as CentOS 7)
Apache HTTP Server ( Web Server)
MySQL (Relational database management system)
PHP programming language (Dynamic web sites)

Tips:

1. Make sure that the LAMP stack software versions are compatible with the release of WordPress, in order to fix issues like white pages on the installation page of WordPress. ( You have option to downgrade WordPress or update one or more of your old software such PHP, Apache, and Mariadb-server.

2. Use root user or user with sudo privileges.

3. Permanently or temporarily disable firewall on CentOS ( during this tutorial, I disabled the firewall permanently for educational purposes only. Servers must be protected in production environment).

4. Update your server with ” yum update” command, and restarted httpd server with ” systemctl restart httpd” command after moving WordPress installation files.

5 . SSH using apps such as putty to your server or direclty use the server’s terminal.
