I started on clean centos-8 server, created from netinstall cd. It is minimal instalation. So, lets begun. Check the version, to be installed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
dnf info httpd
Name : httpd
Version : 2.4.62
Release : 1.el9<\/pre>\n\n\n\nSo, let install it and allow http port on firewalld. And start apache server itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
dnf install httpd
firewall-cmd --add-service=http --permanent
firewall-cmd --reload
systemctl enable httpd.service --now<\/pre>\n\n\n\nNow, you can point you web browser to IP on this server and you should see the welcome page of apache web server on centos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now create a directory, where we place our content and simple web page to test, if its working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
mkdir -p \/var\/www\/vhosts\/com.example.www\nvim \/var\/www\/vhosts\/com.example.www\/index.html<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<html>\n <head>\n <title>Welcome to www.example.com!<\/title>\n <\/head>\n <body>\n <h1>Success! The www.example.com virtual host is working!<\/h1>\n <\/body>\n<\/html><\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\nAnd now, create for this page own configuration in httpd:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
vim \/etc\/httpd\/conf.d\/com.example.www.conf<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<VirtualHost *:80>\n ServerAdmin admin@example.com\n DocumentRoot \"\/var\/www\/vhosts\/com.example.www\"\n ServerName www.example.com\n\nErrorLog \/var\/log\/httpd\/com.example.www-error_log\nCustomLog \/var\/log\/httpd\/com.example.www-access_log common\n<\/VirtualHost><\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\nAnd now, gracefully restart your web server and point your browser to you domain: www.example.com (I edit my \/etc\/hosts to point this domain at my internal IP).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
apachectl graceful<\/pre>\n\n\n\nIf you test page is working, lets begin with more thinks. We must install additional packages (software) for wordpress. Its mysql server and php. As mysql server, I use mariadb. Then create an initial configuration for mysql and create database for wordpress. I set no password for mysql.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
dnf installmariadb-server mariadb<\/code>systemctl enable mariadb<\/code> --nowmysql_secure_installation<\/code>
Switch to unix_socket authentication [Y\/n]
Change the root password? [Y\/n] n
Remove anonymous users? [Y\/n] y
Disallow root login remotely? [Y\/n] y
Remove test database and access to it? [Y\/n] y
Reload privilege tables now? [Y\/n] y
mysql -u root -p
CREATE DATABASE wordpress;<\/code>
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON wordpress.* TO wordpressuser@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'BESTpassword';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit;<\/pre>\n\n\n\nWhen we find, which version of php will be standard installed, I decided to use another package sources and install newer php version 8.3<\/p>\n\n\n\n
dnf info php
Available Packages
Name : php
Version : 8.0.30
dnf install dnf-utils http:\/\/rpms.remirepo.net\/enterprise\/remi-release-9.rpm
dnf update
dnf module list php
dnf module reset php
dnf module enable php:remi-8.3
dnf info php
Available Packages
Name : php
Version : 8.3.11
Release : 1.el9.remi
Architecture : x86_64
Size : 1.8 M
Source : php-8.3.11-1.el9.remi.src.rpm
Repository : remi-modular
dnf install php php-mysql php-gd php-pecl-zip php-intl php-pecl-imagick
php -v
...
PHP 8.3.11 (cli) (built: Aug 27 2024 19:16:34) (NTS gcc x86_64)<\/pre>\n\n\n\nNow, create simple test php page, to view php by apache if its working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
vim \/var\/www\/vhosts\/com.example.www\/foo.php<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<?php\n phpinfo();\n?><\/pre>\n\n\n\nRestart apache web server and point your browser to php:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
systemctl restart httpd.service\nwww.example.com\/foo.php<\/pre>\n\n\n\nAnd now you can see informationa page about php on system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now we can download wordpress and unpack it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
cd ~ <\/code>\nwget http:\/\/wordpress.org\/latest.tar.gz<\/code>\ntar xzvf latest.tar.gz<\/code>\nrsync -avP wordpress\/ \/var\/www\/vhosts\/com.example.www\/\nchown -R apache:apache \/var\/www\/vhosts\/<\/pre>\n\n\n\nNow, we edit configuration and add directory variables about default loding index.php. And remove test files \u2013 foo.php, index.html.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
rm \/var\/www\/vhosts\/com.example.www\/foo.php\nrm \/var\/www\/vhosts\/com.example.www\/index.html\nvim \/etc\/httpd\/conf.d\/com.example.www.conf<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<Directory \/var\/www\/vhosts\/com.example.www>\nDirectoryIndex index.php\n<\/Directory><\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\nAnd restart apache web server<\/p>\n\n\n\n
systemctl restart httpd.service<\/pre>\n\n\n\nNow we can continue with setting our wordpress via web browser and our www.example.com page (click refresh in your web browser). Follow the instructions and fill your variables (database name, user, password\u2026).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My installation step 2 tells me, that it cannot write config.php in our content directory. So, I can manually creaty config.php, or find out, what happens. Install selinux troubleshoot packages and run command sealert, which tell us what happend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
dnf install setroubleshoot\nsealert -a \/var\/log\/audit\/audit.log<\/pre>\n\n\n\nI can see this messages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SELinux is preventing \/usr\/sbin\/php-fpm from write access on the directory \/var\/www\/vhost\/com.example.www.\nIf you want to allow php-fpm to have write access on the com.example.www directory\nThen you need to change the label on 'com.example.www'\nDo\n# semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t 'com.example.www'\n# restorecon -v 'com.example.www'\nAdditional Information:\nSource Context system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0\nTarget Context unconfined_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0\nTarget Objects com.example.www [ dir ]<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\nSo I do, what it want. I adapt permissions, that apache\/php can write into this directory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '\/var\/www\/vhosts\/com.example.www(\/.*)?'\nrestorecon -Rv \/var\/www\/vhosts\/com.example.www\/<\/pre>\n\n\n\nNow I can continue with installation. And everything works fine. Have a nice day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
