Tech2Towards: Install Wordpress on ubuntu With Nginx

👉 In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing and configuring WordPress on a freshly set up Ubuntu server.

Why Nginx Use Additional PHP-FPM Configuration ?
Apache directly embeds the PHP interpreter within each request, whereas Nginx relies on an external program to process PHP and act as a bridge between the web server and the PHP interpreter.
This approach generally provides better performance for PHP-based websites, but it requires extra configuration. Specifically, you'll need to install php8.1-fpm (PHP FastCGI Process Manager), which utilizes the current PHP version (as of this writing). This configuration tells Nginx to forward PHP requests to php-fpm for processing.

Prerequisites:

Step 1) Install LEMP Stack (Linux, Nginx, MySQL, PHP)

Step 2) Install Wordpress

Step 3) Configure Nginx VirtualHost for WordPress

Step 4) Update /etc/hosts file

Step 5) Install phpMyAdmin

Step 6) Configure WordPress Installation

Step 1) Install LEMP Setup (Nginx, Mysql, PHP)

Install Nginx:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install nginx -y

sudo systemctl start nginx && sudo systemctl enable nginx

Install MySQL:

sudo apt install mysql-server -y

sudo mysql -u root -p -e "ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY '123456';" sudo service mysql restart

a) log into MySQL.

sudo mysql -u root -p

b) Create a database and user for WordPress.

CREATE DATABASE wordpress_db;
CREATE USER 'wordpress_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '123456';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON wordpress_db.* TO 'wordpress_user'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;

Install PHP: via bash script file.

#!/bin/bash

VERSION=8.1
PHP_VERSION=php$VERSION
PHP_VERSION2="$VERSION"
UPDATE="sudo apt-get update"
INSTALL="sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends"
$INSTALL -y software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ondrej/php

$UPDATE
$INSTALL -y $PHP_VERSION

sudo sed -i -e 's/max_execution_time = 30/max_execution_time = 300/g' /etc/php/$PHP_VERSION2/fpm/php.ini
sudo sed -i -e 's/max_input_time = 60/max_input_time = 600/g' /etc/php/$PHP_VERSION2/fpm/php.ini
sudo sed -i -e 's/post_max_size = 8M/post_max_size = 80M/g' /etc/php/$PHP_VERSION2/fpm/php.ini

sudo sed -i -e 's/max_file_uploads = 20/max_file_uploads = 200/g' /etc/php/$PHP_VERSION2/fpm/php.ini

Restart The Service:

sudo systemctl start php8.1-fpm
sudo systemctl enable php8.1-fpm
sudo systemctl status php8.1-fpm

Step 2) Install Wordpress

cd /tmp

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

tar -zxvf latest.tar.gz

sudo mv wordpress /var/www/html

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/wordpress

sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/wordpress

Step 3) Configure Nginx VirtualHost for WordPress

sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/tech2towards.local

Add the Following Configuration:

a) Activate your configuration by linking to the configuration file from Nginx’s sites-enabled directory:

sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/tech2towards.local /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/

b) Then, unlink the default configuration file from the /sites-enabled/ directory:

sudo unlink /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
sudo systemctl restart nginx php8.1-fpm

Step 4) Configure /etc/hosts file

sudo nano /etc/hosts

Add the following entry:

127.0.1.1 tech2towards.local

Step 5) Install phpMyAdmin:

Download Latest Version From : Here

cd /tmp

wget https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin/5.2.1/phpMyAdmin-5.2.1-all-languages.zip

sudo unzip phpMyAdmin-5.2.1-all-languages.zip

sudo mv phpMyAdmin-5.2.1-all-languages phpmyadmin

sudo mv phpmyadmin /var/www/html/wordpress/phpmyadmin

sudo echo "<?php phpinfo(); ?>" > /var/www/html/wordpress/info.php

Step 6) Configure WordPress Installation:

Now, you need to configure WordPress to connect to the database you created earlier.

a) Go to your WordPress directory:

cd /var/www/html/wordpress/

sudo cp -a wp-config-sample.php wp-config.php

b) Edit the wp-config.php file:

sudo vim wp-config.php

c) Find the following lines and update them with your database details:

define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress_db');
define('DB_USER', 'wordpress_user');
define('DB_PASSWORD', '123456');
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');

d) Save and close the file.

e) Now, Check In Web Browser

! END !

Install LEMP Via Single Script File:- Optional*

Note : Make Sure Your Machine Should Be Fresh Other Wise you will be get Error !!!!!
