Update System Packages<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To start, log in to your Alma Linux 10 VPS using SSH:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>ssh root@IP_Address -p Port_number<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Replace &#8216;IP_Address&#8217; and &#8216;Port_number&#8217; with your server&#8217;s IP address and SSH port number. If needed, replace &#8216;root&#8217; with the username of your sudo account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once logged in, you must ensure that all AlmaLinux OS packages installed on the server are up to date. You can do this by running the following commands:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>dnf update -y &amp;&amp; dnf upgrade -y<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-2-Install-LEMP-Server\"><\/span>Step 2. Install LEMP Server:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Afterwards, install the Nginx web server, MySQL server, and PHP using the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>dnf install nginx mysql mysql-server php php-{json,mysqlnd,curl,dom,exif,fileinfo,hash,intl,mbstring,openssl,pcre,xml,zip,fpm} python3 augeas-libs<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>After installing all packages, start the Nginx and MySQL services and enable them to start automatically at system boot by running the following commands:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>systemctl start nginx\nsystemctl enable nginx\nsystemctl start mysqld\nsystemctl enable mysqld<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-3-Create-WordPress-Database\"><\/span>Step 3.

Create Nginx Server Block File<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, create a new Nginx server block for your WordPress website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can do this by creating a new configuration file in the \/etc\/nginx\/sites-available\/ directory:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>nano \/etc\/nginx\/conf.d\/wordpress.conf<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Paste the following into the new file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>server {\n\n    listen 80;\n\n    server_name wordpress.yourdomain.com;\n    root \/var\/www\/wordpress;\n    index index.php index.html index.htm;\n\n    location \/ {\n        try_files $uri $uri\/ \/index.php?$args;\n    }\n\n    location ~ \\.php$ {\n        include fastcgi_params;\n        fastcgi_pass unix:\/run\/php-fpm\/www.sock;\n        fastcgi_intercept_errors on;\n        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;\n    }\n\n    location ~ \/\\.ht {\n        deny all;\n    }\n\n    access_log \/var\/log\/nginx\/wordpress.yourdomain.com_access.log;\n    error_log \/var\/log\/nginx\/wordpress.yourdomain.com_error.log;\n\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Save and close the file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, test the Nginx configuration for syntax errors and reload:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>nginx -t\nsystemctl reload nginx<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-5-Install-SSL-Certificate\"><\/span>Step 5: Install SSL Certificate<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, WordPress will be installed using the secure protocol (HTTPS). Therefore, we must install an SSL certificate before proceeding with the remaining steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before generating a new SSL certificate for your wordpress.yourdomain.com, ensure the domain\/subdomain&#8217;s DNS A record already points to your server&#8217;s IP address. If Certbot cannot generate a free SSL certificate, the DNS update has likely not fully propagated yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, you need to install certbot from the source code using the following commands:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>sudo python3 -m venv \/opt\/certbot\/\nsudo \/opt\/certbot\/bin\/pip install --upgrade pip\nsudo \/opt\/certbot\/bin\/pip install certbot certbot-nginx\nsudo ln -s \/opt\/certbot\/bin\/certbot \/usr\/bin\/certbot<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>To run certbot with the Nginx plugin, specifying the name of your domain, execute the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>certbot --nginx -d wordpress.yourdomain.com<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>After executing this command, you must fill in a few entries, such as your email address, agreement to the terms and conditions, whether you want to share your email address, and your preferred redirect options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>&#91;root@wordpress ~]# certbot --nginx -d wordpress.yourdomain.com\nSaving debug log to \/var\/log\/letsencrypt\/letsencrypt.log\nEnter email address or hit Enter to skip.\n (Enter 'c' to cancel): admin@wordpress.yourdomain.com\n\n- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -\nPlease read the Terms of Service at:\nhttps:&#47;&#47;letsencrypt.org\/documents\/LE-SA-v1.5-February-24-2025.pdf\nYou must agree in order to register with the ACME server.

Install WordPress:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, you will also need to install WordPress on your system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Method 1. Install WordPress with WP-CLI<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can download the latest version of the WP-CLI binary package to the \/usr\/local\/bin directory with the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>wget https:\/\/raw.githubusercontent.com\/wp-cli\/builds\/gh-pages\/phar\/wp-cli.phar -O \/usr\/local\/bin\/wp<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>The command above will download the wp-cli.phar file and save it as \/usr\/local\/bin\/wp, allowing you to run the wp command from anywhere in your terminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But first, let\u2019s make the file executable with the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>chmod +x \/usr\/local\/bin\/wp<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, you should be able to run \u2018wp\u2019, for example<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>wp --info<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>You should see the following output:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code># wp --info\nOS:     Linux 6.11.0-0.rc5.23.el10.x86_64_v2 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Nov 25 15:41:36 UTC 2024 x86_64\nShell:  \/bin\/bash\nPHP binary:     \/usr\/bin\/php\nPHP version:    8.3.10\nphp.ini used:   \/etc\/php.ini\nMySQL binary:   \/usr\/bin\/mysql\nMySQL version:  mysql  Ver 8.4.2 for Linux on x86_64 (Source distribution)\nSQL modes:      ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY,STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,NO_ZERO_DATE,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION\nWP-CLI root dir:        phar:\/\/wp-cli.phar\/vendor\/wp-cli\/wp-cli\nWP-CLI vendor dir:      phar:\/\/wp-cli.phar\/vendor\nWP_CLI phar path:       \/root\nWP-CLI packages dir:\nWP-CLI cache dir:       \/root\/.wp-cli\/cache\nWP-CLI global config:\nWP-CLI project config:\nWP-CLI version: 2.11.0<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, let\u2019s create a directory for our WordPress website\u2019s document root, then download the latest version of WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>mkdir \/var\/www\/wordpress \ncd \/var\/www\/wordpress \nchown -R nginx: \/var\/www\/wordpress\nsudo -u nginx wp core download<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>This will create the folder and download the latest WordPress files into it. Once downloaded, you can proceed with the configuration and installation steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s proceed with creating the wp-config.php file. Before running the command below, make sure to replace \u2018wordpress_db\u2019, \u2018wordpress_user\u2019, and \u2018Str0ngP4ssword\u2019 with your actual database details:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>sudo -u nginx wp core config --dbhost=localhost --dbname=wordpress_db --dbuser=wordpress_user --dbpass=Str0ngP4ssword<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>You will see a message that the wp-config.php file is generated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we have the wp-config.php file, we can install WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Run the following command to install WordPress. Make sure to modify the site URL, title, admin username, password, and email before executing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>sudo -u nginx wp core install --url=https:\/\/malves.rosehostingtest.com\/ --title=\"New WordPress Website\" --admin_name=MyWordPressAdminUser --admin_password=Str0ngP4ssword --admin_email=youremail@yourdomain.com<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Be sure to update &#8216;Str0ngP4ssword&#8217; with a more secure password.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will see a successful message like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>Success: WordPress installed successfully.<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Method 2. Download and install WordPress files<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Download the latest version of WordPress with the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>cd \/tmp\/ &amp;&amp; wget https:\/\/wordpress.org\/latest.zip\n\nunzip latest.zip -d \/var\/www\n\nchown -R nginx: \/var\/www\/wordpress\/<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, create the wp-config.php file by copying the sample file and then editing it to include your database credentials:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>mv \/var\/www\/wordpress\/wp-config-sample.php \/var\/www\/wordpress\/wp-config.php<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, open the wp-config.php file in your preferred text editor:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>nano \/var\/www\/wordpress\/wp-config.php<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Find the following lines and update them with your actual database name, username, and password:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>define( 'DB_NAME', wordpress_db);\n\ndefine( 'DB_USER', wordpress_user);\n\ndefine( 'DB_PASSWORD', Str0ngP4ssword);\n\ndefine( 'DB_HOST', 'localhost' );<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>After making the changes, save the file (CTRL+O and Enter) and exit (CTRL+X).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we have the wp-config.php file, we can install WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, open your web browser and go to https:\/\/wordpress.yourdomain.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Select your preferred language and click the \u201cContinue\u201d button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the next screen, fill in the required details such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Site Title<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Username<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Password<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your Email Address<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Then click \u201cInstall WordPress\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a few moments, you\u2019ll see a success message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You-have-successfully-learned-how-to-install-WordPress-on-AlmaLinux-10\"><\/span>You have successfully learned how to install WordPress on AlmaLinux 10<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s it!
