From Debian 9, <a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/MariaDB">Mariadb</a> is the default mysql server. But you can also choose <a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/Mysql">mysql</a> for installation. It is the counterpart of more popular LAMP stack except instead of Apache httpd we use nginx. Earlier we have tried LEMP stack on Ubuntu and docker container. </span><br />

<div>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Django is a free and open source web application framework, written in Python, which follows the model–view–controller architectural pattern. It is maintained by the Django Software Foundation (DSF) and its primary goal is to ease the creation of complex, database-driven websites.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">This tutorial applies to <a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/Debian">Debian 7</a>. (but might work on the similar distributions). Before we start with the installation, we need to make sure that our system and our repositories are up to date and then we need to install and create <b>virtualenv</b></span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); line-height: 15.6px; margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><span style="color: white;"># sudo apt-get update
# sudo apt-get upgrade
</span><span style="color: lime;"># sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv
# sudo virtualenv /opt/virtuale</span></pre>
</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">
We have now created the directory which will be the home for <b>virtualenv</b>. Before we proceed with Python packages installation, we need to activate our virtualenv.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 26px;">
<div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; line-height: normal;">
<span style="color: lime; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); line-height: 15.6px; margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"># source /opt/virtualenv/bin/activate</pre>
</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; line-height: normal;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: large;"></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">We will now notice that see that (<b>virtualenv</b>) has been appended to the beginning of the terminal prompt. This will help us know when our virtualenv is active and which virtualenv is active Now it is time to install <b>Django</b>. To do this, we will use pip, a Python package manager much like easy_install:</span></div>
<div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># pip </span><span style="color: lime;">install django</span></span></pre>
</span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">We now have Django installed. The next step is the database. Most Django users prefer to use <u><a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/PostgreSQL">PostgreSQL</a></u> as their database server. It is much more robust than MySQL and the Django ORM works much better with PostgreSQL than <a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/Mysql">MySQL</a>, MSSQL, or others. We don’t need Virtualenv active for PostgreSQL installation, so we can deactivate it:</span></div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="color: white; font-size: large;"><pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"># deactivate</span></pre>
<div style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: large;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Then we need to install dependencies for PostgreSQL to work with Django and install PostgreSQL database service:</span></div>
</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># sudo apt-get install libpq-dev python-dev
# sudo apt-get install </span><span style="color: lime;">postgresql postgresql-contrib</span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;"><a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/PostgreSQL">PostgreSQL </a>is now installed. Next thing to install is <a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/NGINX">nginx</a>. We will use nginx as web server, since it fast, light-weight server and compatible with Python. To install it, we simply execute:</span></div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># sudo </span><span style="color: orange;">apt-get install nginx</span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Gunicorn is a very powerful Python WSGI HTTP Server. It is a Python package we need to first activate our virtualenv to install it. With our virtualenv active, we are going to run this command:</span></div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># source /opt/myenv/bin/activate
</span><span style="color: lime;"># pip install gunicorn</span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Gunicorn is now installed in our virtualenv. At this point we have everything we need installed. Now, we need to proceed with the services configuration process. We will start our configuration with <b>PostgreSQL</b>. With PostgreSQL we need to create a database, create a user, and grant the user we created access to the database we created. Start off by running the following command:</span></div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># sudo su – </span><span style="color: lime;">postgres</span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Then, we run this command to create your database and once we have now a database that is named newdb, we will create database user:</span></div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: lime;"># created newdb
</span><span style="color: white;"># createuser –P</span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">We will get a series of 6 prompts during the process. The first one will ask you for the name of the new user. The next two prompts are for our password and confirmation of password for the new user. For the last 3 prompts just enter “n” and hit “enter”. This just ensures your new users only has access to what you give it access to and nothing else. Now we can start <b>PostgreSQL</b> console and set access for the new user that we just created:</span></div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: orange;"># psql
</span><span style="color: lime;"># GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE newdb TO newuser;</span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Now that we have database with user that is able to access it, we need to set those parameters in our Django project. We are going to create new Django project. In order to do that, we need to change to virtualenv directory, activate it and then create new project:</span></div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># cd /opt/myenv
</span><span style="color: lime;"># source /opt/myenv/bin/activate
</span><span style="color: white;"># django-admin.py startproject newproject</span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">We should be able to see a new directory called “newproject” inside our virtualenv directory. This is where our new Django project files live. In order for our project to be able to talk to our database we need to install a additional packages with using pip (while virtualenv still active).</span></div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># pip install </span><span style="color: lime;">psycopg2</span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Now, we change into our new project’s directory and edit <b>settings.py</b> file using our favorite editor. The database settings in the file should look like:</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<pre style="background-color: whitesmoke; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: Menlo, Monaco, Consolas, 'Courier New', monospace; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.42857; margin-bottom: 10.5px; overflow: auto; padding: 10px; word-break: break-all; word-wrap: break-word;"><code style="background-color: transparent; border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: inherit; font-family: Menlo, Monaco, Consolas, 'Courier New', monospace; font-size: inherit; padding: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">   DATABASES = {
        'default': {
            'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2', # Add 'postgresql_psycopg2', 'mysql', 'sqlite3' or 'oracle'.
            'NAME': 'newdb',                      # Or path to database file if using sqlite3.
            # The following settings are not used with sqlite3:
            'USER': 'newuser',
            'PASSWORD': 'password',
            'HOST': 'localhost',                      # Empty for localhost through domain sockets or           '127.0.0.1' for localhost through TCP.
            'PORT': '',                      # Set to empty string for default.
        }</code></pre>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Now, we should move to our main project directory and make sure virtualenv is activated. Once we make sure that virtualenv is active, we can run the following command so that Django can add its initial configuration and other tables to our database:</span></div>
<div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: orange;"># cd /opt/virtualenv/newproject
</span><span style="color: white;"># source /opt/myenv/bin/activate
</span><span style="color: lime;"># python manage.py syncdb</span></span></pre>
</div>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">We should get some output describing what tables were installed, followed by a prompt asking if you want to create a superuser. This is optional and depends on if we want to use Django’s authentication system or the Django admin.</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Gunicorn configuration is very specific to our applications needs. First we will go over running Gunicorn with default settings. Here is the command to just run default Gunicorn:</span></div>
<div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># gunicorn_django --bind </span><span style="color: lime;">**your-fully-qualified-domain-name.com**:8001</span></span></pre>
<div style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman';">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">If we now point our browser to our-fully-qualified-domain-name.com:8001, we should get the Django welcome screen. Using the command above, we started one worker process only. In production environment we will need more than one. We can control the number of processes from the command line, so if we want to start 5 worker processes, the command will be:</span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="color: white;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"># gunicorn_django –workers=5 --bind **your-fully-qualified-domain-name.com**:8001</span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">If we want to rung Gunicorn and user other than root, then we have:</span></div>
<div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># gunicorn_django -</span><span style="color: lime;">-workers=5 --user=nobody --bind **your-fully-</span><span style="color: white;">qualified-domain-name.com**:8001</span></span></pre>
</div>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Since we might end up having a lot of different input parameters, it is better if we just create configuration file and use that when starting Gunicorn. We can create our configuration file in virtualenv directory for example (<b>/opt/virtualenv/gunicorn_cfg.py</b>), and put the following configuration for the setting we used before:</span></div>

</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Now, if we want to run the server, we should execute the following command:</span></div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="color: white;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"># /opt/myenv/bin/gunicorn -c /opt/myenv/gunicorn_config.py myproject.wsgi</span><span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;">
</span></span></span></pre>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">The “-c” flag, tells gunicorn that we have a config file we want to use, which we pass in just after the “-c” flag. We also pass in a Python dotted notation reference to our WSGI file so that Gunicorn knows where our WSGI file is. For further information about Gunicorn, please read the Gunicorn documentation found at gunicorn.org for more on this topic.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">The last thing we need to do is to configure nginx. Since we are only setting <b><a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/NGINX">NGINX</a> </b>to handle static files we need to first decide where our static files will be stored. We should open our <b>settings.py</b> file for our <b>Django </b>project and edit the <b>STATIC_ROOT</b> line to look like this:</span></div>
<div>
<pre style="background-attachment: scroll; background-clip: initial; background-color: #3c3c3c; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: repeat; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(229, 229, 229); margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; overflow: auto; padding: 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: orange;">STATIC_ROOT</span><span style="color: white;"> = "/opt/virtualenv/static/"</span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">Now that you’ve set up where your static files will be located, we need to configure NGINX to handle the static files and be able to connect to Gunicorn. We should create a new file named <b>/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/newproject</b> and put the following content inside:</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">

</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;">In order to apply settings, we need to restart Nginx and we are good to go:</span></div>

<div style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 18px; line-height: 28px; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">EasyEngine (ee) is a <a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/Linux" target="_blank">linux </a>shell-script collection, which makes managing your WordPress and Nginx sites on an Ubuntu server easy and fun. EasyEngine makes it very easy to manage Nginx and we will no longer need to recall complex commands or depend on system administrators. As an interface for Nginx, EasyEngine is known to perform better and faster than Apache, particularly when the number of concurrent site visitors is on the rise.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 18px; line-height: 28px; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 18px; line-height: 28px; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Easy Engine would work on any <a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/Debian" target="_blank">Debian-based</a> distribution, but for these tutorial we are using Ubuntu. Most of the official tests are also done on Ubuntu. In order to install it our <a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/Ubuntu" target="_blank">Ubuntu server</a>, we need to have full root access. Installation process consists of several commands and it is actually pretty simple and straight forward:</span></div>
<pre style="background-color: whitesmoke; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: Menlo, Monaco, Consolas, 'Courier New', monospace; line-height: 1.42857; margin-bottom: 10.5px; overflow: auto; padding: 10px; word-break: break-all; word-wrap: break-word;"><code style="background-color: transparent; border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: inherit; font-family: Menlo, Monaco, Consolas, 'Courier New', monospace; padding: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: large;"># curl -sL rt.cx/ee | sudo bash
# ee system install</span></code><code style="background-color: transparent; border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: inherit; font-family: Menlo, Monaco, Consolas, 'Courier New', monospace; font-size: inherit; padding: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
</code></pre>
<div style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 18px; line-height: 28px; margin-bottom: 10.5px;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The first command will install easy engine, and the second command will install all other required packages. EE will always install the latest stable version of the packages (Latest PHP, MySQL, etc.) During the installation we will get few prompts where we need to answer “yes” in order for the installation to complete. Once we have it installed, we can create new wordpress with the command:</span></div>

<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;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># nano /etc/</span><span style="color: lime;">php.ini</span></span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
After its done, we'll need to change the ownership of PHP-FPM process from apache to lightpd. To do so, we'll need to open the configuration file /etc/php-fpm.d/www.conf using a text editor.</div>
<div>
<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;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># nano /etc/php-fpm.d/</span><span style="color: lime;">www.conf</span></span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
Then, we'll append the file with the following configurations.</div>
<div>
<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;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;">user = </span><span style="color: lime;">lighttpd</span><span style="color: white;">
</span><span style="color: lime;">group </span><span style="color: white;">= lighttpd</span></span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
Once done, we'll need to save the file and exit the text editor. Then, we'll need to include fastcgi module from /etc/lighttpd/modules.conf configuration file.</div>
<div>
<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;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># nano /etc/lighttpd/</span><span style="color: lime;">modules.conf</span></span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
Then, we'll need to uncomment the following line by removing # from it.</div>
<div>
<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;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: lime;">include </span><span style="color: white;">"conf.d/fastcgi.conf"</span></span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
At last, we'll need to configure our fastcgi configuration file using our favorite text editor.</div>
<div>
<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;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># nano /etc/</span><span style="color: lime;">lighttpd/conf.d</span><span style="color: white;">/fastcgi.conf</span></span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
Then, we'll need to add the following lines at the end of the file.</div>
<div>
<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;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: lime;">fastcgi.server</span><span style="color: white;"> += ( ".php" =>
((
"host" => "127.0.0.1",
"port" => "9000",
</span><span style="color: lime;">"broken-scriptfilename" => "enable"
</span><span style="color: white;">))
)</span></span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
After its done, we'll save the file and exit the text editor.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt; letter-spacing: -1px; line-height: 1.2em; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><u>On Ubuntu 15.04</u></span></h3>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
To enable fastcgi with lighttpd web server, we'll simply need to execute the following commands.</div>
<div>
<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;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># lighttpd-enable-mod </span><span style="color: lime;">fastcgi</span><span style="color: white;">

Enabling fastcgi: ok
Run /etc/init.d/lighttpd force-reload to enable changes

# lighttpd-enable-mod fastcgi-php

</span><span style="color: lime;">Enabling fastcgi-php: ok
</span><span style="color: white;">Run /etc/init.d/lighttpd force-reload to enable changes</span></span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
Then, we'll reload our lighttpd by running the following command.</div>
<div>
<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;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># systemctl force-reload </span><span style="color: lime;">lighttpd</span></span></span></pre>
</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18pt; letter-spacing: -1px; line-height: 1.2em; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;">
<u><span style="color: #0b5394;">Testing if PHP is working</span></u></h2>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
In order to see if PHP is working as expected or not, we'll need to create a new php file under the webroot of our lighttpd web server. Here, in this tutorial we have /var/www/html in Ubuntu and /srv/www/htdocs in CentOS as the default webroot so, we'll create a info.php file under it using a text editor.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
<strong><span style="color: #0b5394;">On CentOS 7</span></strong></div>
<div>
<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;"><span style="color: white; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"># nano  /var/www/info.php</span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
<strong><span style="color: #0b5394;">On Ubuntu 15.04</span></strong></div>
<div>
<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;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="color: white;"># nano /srv/www/htdocs/</span><span style="color: lime;">info</span><span style="color: white;">.php</span></span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
Then, we'll simply add the following line into the file.</div>
<div>
<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;"><span style="line-height: 15.6px;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: white;"><?php </span><span style="color: lime;">phpinfo</span><span style="color: white;">(); ?></span></span></span></pre>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
Once done, we'll simply save the file and exit from the text editor.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; word-break: break-word;">
Now, we'll open our running lighttpd using its ip address or domain name with the <b>info.php</b> file path as http://lighttpd.hackthesec.co.in/info.php. after that you can see the <b>phpinfo </b>page</div>
