Use Amazon Linux

[ec2-user ~]$ sudo yum update

[ec2-user ~]$ sudo yum install -y httpd24 php56 php56-mysqlnd

[ec2-user ~]$ sudo service httpd start

[ec2-user ~]$ sudo chkconfig httpd on

To set file permissions for the Apache web server

[ec2-user ~]$ sudo groupadd www


[ec2-user ~]$ sudo usermod -a -G www ec2-user
[ec2-user ~]$ exit
[ec2-user ~]$ groups
ec2-user wheel www

[ec2-user ~]$ sudo chown -R root:www /var/www

[ec2-user ~]$ sudo chmod 2775 /var/www


[ec2-user ~]$ find /var/www -type d -exec sudo chmod 2775 {} +

[ec2-user ~]$ find /var/www -type f -exec sudo chmod 0664 {} +

Connect your Apache web server to your RDS DB instance

[ec2-user ~]$ cd /var/www


[ec2-user ~]$ mkdir inc
[ec2-user ~]$ cd inc

[ec2-user ~]$ >dbinfo.inc


[ec2-user ~]$ nano dbinfo.inc

<?php
define('DB_SERVER', 'endpoint');
define('DB_USERNAME', 'huzefa');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'sansdb');

?>

Save and close the dbinfo.inc file.

Change the directory to /var/www/html:

[ec2-user ~]$ cd /var/www/html

Create a new file in the html directory named


SamplePage.php, and then edit the file by calling nano
(or the editor of your choice).

[ec2-user ~]$ >SamplePage.php


[ec2-user ~]$ nano SamplePage.php
