| − | === Learn About Linux ===
| |
| | | | |
| − | Linux is an open-source operating system based on UNIX. Linux is highly versatile and is used in a wide range of applications.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | If you are not a Linux guru, read the Linux guide to get started: [[Linux]]
| |
| − |
| |
| − | === Create an AWS EC2 Instance ===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Once you understand [[Linux]], you need to set up your Amazon EC2 Instance. Use the AWS article to guide you through the process: [[Amazon Web Services]]
| |
| − |
| |
| − | === Configuring Your Instance ===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ==== Installing Essential Packages ====
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Recall that software installation in Linux instances is usually handled through '''apt''' (Debian) or '''yum''' (RHEL). For more information, refer to [[Linux#Repository-Based Package Managers|the Linux guide]].
| |
| − |
| |
| − | To make sure everything is working properly, '''install your first package(s) according to the ''Essential Packages'' subsection in the Linux guide above.'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ==== Add your Own User Account ====
| |
| − |
| |
| − | On your EC2 instance, set up your own personal account.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | For information on how to add a user account, see the Linux guide: [[Linux#User Management]]
| |
| − |
| |
| − | You need to do the following things once you've created your account:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | # '''Add your account to the Sudoers list.''' Instructions are in the Linux guide.
| |
| − | # '''Allow your user to log in via SSH.''' Instructions are in the Web Server Configuration guide: [[Web Server Configuration]]
| |
| − |
| |
| − | From now on, you should log into your EC2 instance using only your own username and not the default username that Amazon gives you (''ec2-user'' or ''ubuntu'').
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ==== Set the Timezone ====
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Set your server to use US Central time.''' Instructions are in the Linux guide: [[Linux#Synchronizing Date and Time]]
| |
| − |
| |
| − | === Set Up the Apache Web Server ===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | You need to '''install the Apache web server on your EC2 instance'''. Instructions are in the Web Server Configuration guide: [[Web Server Configuration#Apache]]
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In order for your web server to be accessible, you need to '''open up Port 80 on your EC2 instance'''. Instructions are in the AWS guide: [[Amazon Web Services#Enabling Web Access to your EC2 Instance]]
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Enable the UserDir module in Apache.''' Instructions are in the Web Server Configuration guide: [[Web Server Configuration#Enabling the UserDir Module]]
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Remap the UserDir module to .html''' Instructions are also in the Web Server Configuration guide in the same section as above.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | === Set Up Subversion ===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | You need to '''set up subversion on your EC2 instance as well as your desktop'''.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''This semester's Subversion repository is: <nowiki> https://shell.cec.wustl.edu:8443/cse330_fl12/svn/Lastname-studentid </nowiki>'''
| |
| − | * Replace Lastname with your last name (capitalize the first letter in the last name) and studentid with your student ID
| |
| − | * Do not forget the underscore between cse330 and fl12 (NOT A SPACE)
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Instructions for configuring Subversion are in the Web Server Configuration guide: [[Web Server Configuration#Subversion]]

| |
| − |
| |
| − | Make sure to read the Web Server Configuration wiki for more specific instructions on tasks 3 and 4: [[Web Server Configuration]]

| |
| − | # Connect to your ec2 instance
| |
| − | # Display the current time on your ec2 instance
| |
| − | # Show the test file at http://ec2-xxx-xx-xx-xxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com/~yourUserName/hello.txt (note that ~yourUserName cannot be ec2-user!)
