What Is Magento ?

Magento is an open-source e-commerce platform that allows businesses to create and manage online stores. It provides a flexible and customizable framework for building robust and feature-rich e-commerce websites.

Here are some key features and characteristics of Magento:  E-commerce Functionality, Scalability and Flexibility, Multi-Store Capabilities, Themes and Customization, SEO-Friendly, Community and Marketplace

Magento is widely used by businesses of various sizes, from small and medium-sized enterprises to large corporations, to create and manage their online presence and drive e-commerce sales.


Step 1) Install Apache2

$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install apache2

Step 2) Install MySQL and Create Database for Magento2

$ sudo apt install mysql-server -y
$ sudo mysql

  • Change Root User Password


ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY '123456';

  • Create User & Database for Magento2


CREATE USER 'mysql_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '87gjksbhstJHRH675FSEgh46g';
create database mysql_db;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON mysql_db.* TO 'mysql_user'@'localhost';
EXIT;

Step 3) Install PHP and required extensions

Note: Create php.sh name script file and paste all below content on it.



$ sh php.sh

  • In php.ini file, search and change the following values as below

$ sudo vim /etc/php/7.4/apache2/php.ini

max_execution_time=18000
max_input_time=1800
memory_limit=4G

  • Save the file. Reload Apache2.

$ sudo systemctl reload apache2

Step 4) Install and configure Elasticsearch

Note: Make sure your Machine has morethen 4GB of RAM.

  • First, we will install Openjdk17 (Java) as Elasticsearch runs on Java:

$ sudo apt install openjdk-17-jdk
$ java -version

$ curl -fsSL https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/elastic.gpg
$ echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/elastic.gpg] https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/7.x/apt stable main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elastic-7.x.list
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install elasticsearch


  • Configure Elasticsearch

Once the elasticsearch has been installed on your system, open the elasticsearch.yml configuration file.

The Elasticsearch configuration files are in the /etc/elasticsearch directory. The ones we’ll review and edit are:

  • elasticsearch.yml - Configures the Elasticsearch server settings. This is where most options are stored, which is why we are mostly interested in this file.
  • jvm.options - Provides configuration for the JVM such as memory settings.

$ sudo vim /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml

  • Uncomment and Edit below lines:

node.name: "My First Node"
cluster.name: my-application
network.host: 127.0.0.1
http.port: 9200

  • If your server only has 4GB of RAM, you must edit this setting.

$ sudo vim /etc/elasticsearch/jvm.options

  • Now change the Xms and Xmx values to 2GB

-Xms2g
-Xmx2g

  • Finally, you can use the following commands Start and enable the Elasticsearch service:

$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo systemctl enable elasticsearch.service
$ sudo systemctl start elasticsearch.service
$ sudo systemctl status elasticsearch.service

Step 5) Install Composer

$ cd ~
$ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer -o composer-setup.php
$ sudo php composer-setup.php --install-dir=/usr/bin --filename=composer
$ composer


Step 6) Download and Install Magento2

$ cd /var/www/html
$ sudo composer create-project --repository-url=https://repo.magento.com/ magento/project-community-edition=2.4.3 magento2

  • Create an account on Magento marketplace and Click Here to get private and public access key,

Create Access keys here. If you have access keys, you can use those.

Now enter Username  and password to start downloading

  • Username: Example public Key  2fc966a913d4e83b28041eeb3c3b72e5
  • Password: Example private key. 48e05400d17ca1bcb4e693825c45416e


  • Set file permissions

$ cd /var/www/html/magento2
$ sudo find var generated vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc -type f -exec chmod g+w {} +
$ sudo find var generated vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc -type d -exec chmod g+ws {} +
$ sudo chown -R $USER:www-data .
$ sudo chmod u+x bin/magento


  • Install Magento 2

$ cd /var/www/html/magento2

  • You must use the command line to install Magento.

$ php bin/magento setup:install --base-url=http://your_domain_name.com --db-host=localhost --db-name=mysql_db --db-user=mysql_user --db-password=87gjksbhstJHRH675FSEgh46g --admin-firstname=Admin --admin-lastname=Admin --admin-email=admin@admin.com --admin-user=admin --admin-password=admin@123 --language=en_US --currency=USD --timezone=America/Chicago --backend-frontname=admin --search-engine=elasticsearch7 --elasticsearch-host=localhost --elasticsearch-port=9200

  • Replace the following information with your information

  1. --base-url : your domain, eg: http://your_domain_name.com. You can change this base URL later if you make mistake.
  2. --db-host : Database host, input localhost if you follow my tutorial
  3. --db-name : name of the database we created in step 2
  4. --db-user : name of the database user we created in sep 2
  5. --db-password : password of your mysql user

Now composer will start installing Magento 2.4. The process will take a while (approximately 15 minutes)


  • Change Domain & DocumentRoot of Virtualhost file.

Edit your virtual host file

$ sudo vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/magento2/pub
        ServerName your_domain_name.com
        
    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

    <Directory "/var/www/html">
    AllowOverride all
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

  • Restart Apache for the changes to take effect:

$ sudo systemctl restart apache2

Note : If you are performing this task on your local machine then only use below one.

$ sudo vim  /etc/hosts

Add line at the last of this file

127.0.0.1 your_domain_name.com

  • Next, you will need to run these command to upgrade the database and deploy static view files


$ cd /var/www/html/magento2
$ php bin/magento indexer:reindex && php bin/magento se:up && php bin/magento se:s:d -f && php bin/magento c:f && php bin/magento module:disable Magento_TwoFactorAuth


  • Hit the URL http://your_domain_name.com in the browser. This is Magento 2 Home page
