Add following content to /var/www/html/test.php file.

<?php
    phpinfo();
  1. Check created page with browser

Access following address, with your browser. http://localhost/test.php

Enable Remote Connection to Apache HTTP Server (httpd) –> Open Web server Port (80) on Iptables Firewall (as root user again)

  1. CentOS/Red Hat (RHEL)

  2. Edit /etc/sysconfig/iptables file: nano -w /etc/sysconfig/iptables

  3. Add following INPUT rule: -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT

Install MySQL 5.5 using Yum

yum --enablerepo=remi install mysql mysql-server

After installing MysQL server packages, start the service and execute following command for applying initial security. Execute below command and follow the instructions.

service mysqld start

Execute mysql_secure_installation script and follow the wizard. It will prompt for root password. To get temporary root password check ‘/root/.mysql_secret’ file

/usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation

Autostart MySQL on boot

chkconfig mysqld on

Now you have successfully installed MySQL. Login to MySQL using root access and try to create a dummy database. The root user password can be found in /root/.mysql_secret.

mysql -u root -p

Create a dummy database using following command.

mysql> create database dummydb;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.01 sec)

Install phpMyAdmin

phpMyAdmin is a free open source web interface tool, used to manage your MySQL databases. By default phpMyAdmin is not found in CentOS official repositories. So let us install it using EPEL repository.

To install EPEL repository, follow the below link:

Now install phpMyAdmin

yum install phpmyadmin -y

Configure phpMyAdmin Edit the phpmyadmin.conf file.

vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf

Find and comment the whole / section as shown below:

[...]
Alias /phpMyAdmin /usr/share/phpMyAdmin
Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpMyAdmin

#<Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/>
#   <IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
#     # Apache 2.4
#     Require local
#   </IfModule>
#   <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
#     # Apache 2.2
#     Order Deny,Allow
#     Deny from All
#     Allow from 127.0.0.1
#     Allow from ::1
#   </IfModule>
#</Directory>
[...]

Open “config.inc.php” file and change from “cookie” to “http” to change the authentication in phpMyAdmin:

cp /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/config.sample.inc.php /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php 
vi /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php

Change cookie to http.

[...] 
/* Authentication type */
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'http';
[...]

Restart the Apache service:

service httpd restart

Now you can access the phpmyadmin console by navigating to http://server-ip-address/phpmyadmin/ from your browser.

Enter your MySQL username and password which you have given in previous steps. In my case its “root” and “centos”.

Now you will able to manage your MariaDB databases from phpMyAdmin web interface.

Install Redis cache on CentOS and Redhat

wget http://download.redis.io/releases/redis-2.8.6.tar.gz
tar -zxvf redis-2.8.6.tar.gz
cd redis-2.8.6
make

Once you installed it without any error move two Redis files into the /usr/local/bin/ directory...

cd src
cp redis-server /usr/local/bin/
cp redis-cli /usr/local/bin/

Now time to move default init script and configuration file's.

cd utils/
cp redis_init_script /etc/init.d/redis
cd ..
cp redis.conf /etc/

After that edit the redis.conf file and make certain changes.

vi /etc/redis.conf
  • Set daemonize yes
  • Set bind to loop back ip address[127.0.0.1]
  • Set logfile /var/log/redis.log default set to /dev/null
  • Set pidfile /var/run/redis.pid
  • Set LogLevel to Debug to debug issue
  • Set the number of databases on a per connection basis. The default value is 0
  • Set maxmemory as per requirement.

Now download install and configure phpredis

git clone git://github.com/nicolasff/phpredis.git
cd phpredis
phpize
./configure
make && make install

Edit create redis.ini into the /etc/php.d/ directory. Add extensions redis.so in file.

extension=redis.so

Redis installation is completed

Restart Apache

service httpd restart
