[<a href="http://forum.phpwcms.org/viewforum.php?f=12">some references</a>]! phpwcms is supported across all shared and dedicated web hosting plans offered by the major hosting providers. 
Install phpwcms 
As usual, run the following command to update all installed packages 
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">yum -y update</pre>
Next, install Apache web server 
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">yum -y install httpd</pre>
Once the installation of the web server is completed, start it and set it to start automatically on boot. 
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">systemctl start httpd
systemctl enable httpd</pre>
phpwcms is a PHP based application and we need to install PHP with the 'mysql' extensions installed 
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">yum -y install php php-mysql</pre>
Run the following command on your terminal to install MariaDB server 
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">yum -y install mariadb mariadb-server</pre>
Once the installation is completed start the MariaDB server and set it to start on system boot 
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">systemctl start mariadb
systemctl enable mariadb</pre>
Then, run the mysql_secure_installation script. This script will help you to improve the security of your MariaDB installation and set your MariaDB root password. 
 
 
After that login to the MariaDB server with the root user and create a new user and database . 
<pre style="background-color: whitesmoke; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: auto; padding: 9.5px; word-break: break-all; word-wrap: break-word;">mysql -u root -p

CREATE DATABASE phpwcms;
CREATE USER 'phpwcmsuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'PASSWORD';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `phpwcms`.* TO 'phpwcmsuser'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit</pre>
Download the latest available phpwcms release from their official website 
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">wget https://github.com/slackero/phpwcms/archive/phpwcms-1.8.2.zip</pre>
Unpack the downloaded ZIP archive to the document root directory on your server 
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">unzip phpwcms-1.8.2.zip -d /var/www/html/</pre>
After that rename the folder 
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">cd /var/www/html/
mv phpwcms-phpwcms-1.8.2 phpwcms</pre>
Set the Apache user as the owner of the phpwcms files and directories 
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">chown -R apache: /var/www/html/phpwcms</pre>
On the next step we will create an Apache virtual host for your phpwcms based website. Create a '/etc/httpd/conf.d/vhosts.conf' file with the following content: 
<pre style="background-color: whitesmoke; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 10px; overflow: auto; padding: 9.5px; word-break: break-all; word-wrap: break-word;">IncludeOptional vhosts.d/*.conf</pre>
Create a ‘vhosts.d/’ directory and create the virtual host with the following content 
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">mkdir /etc/httpd/vhosts.d/</pre>
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">nano /etc/httpd/vhosts.d/yourdomain.com.conf

<VirtualHost YOUR_SERVER_IP:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@yourdomain.com
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/phpwcms/"
ServerName yourdomain.com
ServerAlias www.yourdomain.com
ErrorLog "/var/log/httpd/yourdomain.com-error_log"
CustomLog "/var/log/httpd/yourdomain.com-access_log" combined

<Directory "/var/www/html/phpwcms/">
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost></pre>
Save the file and restart the Apache web server. 
<pre style="background: none 0px 0px repeat scroll rgb(60, 60, 60); border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;">systemctl restart httpd</pre>
Now, open a web browser and navigate it to http://yourdomain.com/setup/index.php, accept their terms and conditions and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the phpwcms installation.
