How do I install Bitnami Wordpress after downloading it?
I was a Windows User, and installing the Wordpress installer on Xampp is easy, just double click the installer and next until finished.
The Bitnami Wordpress Linux Installer is pretty much plug-and-play (depending on how you do it).
If you're installing from your bare OS, all you need to do is grab the install runfile from the download site and then do the following:
cd Downloads
and hit Enter.bitnami-wordpress-4.7.3-0-linux-x64-installer.run
). For all steps below, I will be assuming the filename is bitnami-wordpress.run
. Change this accordingly.Run the following command to start the install process:
chmod +x bitnami-wordpress.run && ./bitnami-wordpress.run
If the installer asks for root permission, run the following command instead (if needed):
sudo ./bitnami-wordpress.run
Alternatively, I would personally recommend you use the Docker setup for Bitnami Wordpress. How to is much simpler:
sudo apt install curl
.Bitnami-WP
in your home folder.cd
to the folder where you want the configs to go.Run these commands:
curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-wordpress/master/docker-compose.yml
docker-compose up
Whenever you are done, just cd
back to wherever the compose file exists, and run docker-compose down
to shut down the install.
Just rename your downloaded file to something easy like bitnami.run
, once you have done this, open the terminal on your computer and type:
cd Downloads
and press enter, once that is done, look for your Wordpress download and type
sudo ./bitnami.run
once that is done, you will be asked to put your password
enter your password and press enter
once that is done, your Wordpress installation will begin.
.run
extension? Open a terminal andcd
to theDownloads
file. Then dochmod +x [filename.run]
to make it executable. Finally, run the file by entering[filename.run]
. (Replace [filename.run] with the actual name of the file.)
