Thanks!
I added just a line to prevent execution if errors are fired.

I am new to scripting so please bear with me. I have created a script that installs httpd and mariadb but how do I get it so this part continues and creates database, user, etc automatically? my goal is to have the whole process of installing httpd, mariadb, and wordpress on my server automatically. Thanks!
