How to Install InlineCMS with LAMP Stack on AlmaLinux 9
At the time of reviewing this guide, the InlineCMS installation/files do not download anymore, and the website isn't available either. The guide listed below may not work.
The general idea behind InlineCMS is to allow web designers to create fully-functional content-managed websites using only HTML and CSS. Everyone who creates websites knows, that drawing a design and turning it into an HTML template is only half the battle. Next, you have to integrate your design with CMS. And this can be a tricky task, especially for people who don't too familiar with PHP code. InlineCMS simplifies this task as much, as possible. In this article, we are going to learn how to install InlineCMS on AlmaLinux 9. So, let’s get started.
Try this wiki on our VPS. Starting at just $5/month with 24x7 In-house customer support.
Pre-requisites :
-
A system with AlmaLinux 9 installed and running.
-
root
access to the system. - LAMP Stack installed and running, for this, you can refer to one of our guides on installing the LAMP Stack (Apache, MariaDB, and PHP).
Once you're all set, we'll proceed with InlineCMS installation and configuration.
Create Database
Let us begin with creating a Database and a user. We will then grant the required privileges to the user so it can interact with the Database.
mysql -u root
CREATE DATABASE crowncloud;
CREATE USER 'crowncloud'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'YOUR-PASSWORD-HERE';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON crowncloud.* TO 'crowncloud'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
QUIT
The above commands will give complete access to the user
crowncloud
. ReplaceYOUR-PASSWORD-HERE
with a safe and secure password.
Configuring Apache vHost
Create a new folder named InlineCMS under the public folder.
mkdir -p /var/www/html/inlinecms
Create a new apache configuration file blog.domainhere.info.conf
for the domain with the following command:
vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/blog.domainhere.info.conf
Add the following codes:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName blog.domainhere.info
ServerAlias blog.domainhere.info
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/inlinecms
<Directory /var/www/html/inlinecms/>
Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/blog.domainhere.info-error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/blog.domainhere.info-access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Change
blog.domainhere.info
withYour Domain Name
.
Now, press the Esc
key, type in :wq!
and press the Enter
key to save and exit the file.
Now, restart & check the apache with the following commands:
systemctl restart httpd
systemctl status httpd
Enable Firewall:
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=http
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=https
firewall-cmd --reload
Install Let's Encrypt SSL Certificate
Next, we will install the Let's Encrypt SSL cert so we can have the domain running on HTTPS.
You can refer to the following link for instructions on how to. Install Let's Encrypt.
