Welcome to Magenest Offical Tutorials
In this video I will show you how to install Magento 2 in Ubuntu
Before installing Magento 2, you should read it's requirements first
Check the Description below for the link to this page
In this video i'm using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
We will install Composer
Apache
MySQL 5.6 and above
PHP 7.0 and all the necessary extensions
There's a text file in the Description, you can download it
So, you dont have to type the command manually, if you like.
Okay, let's start with Apache. Open up your Terminal
Type or paste sudo apt-get install apache2
Input your Password
Enter
Press Yes
When it's done, go to your browser
Navigate to localhost
If you see this page then Apache is installed correctly
Next is MySQL
Agian in your Terminal
type sudo apt-get install mysql-server
When it's completed you will have to create a password
You will use this later so type in some thing you will remember or write it down
Continue with this command to secure your MySQL
Type in the password u created before
After that it will ask you to do some configuration
If you are installing for a live server
you will have to do this, but we are doing this for localhost so i will skip this part
Now let's install PHP and it's extensions
Again you can type or paste the command in your terminals
We also need to install the mod rewrite
After that edit this file
If you do not have sublime text you can use gedit or nano
Open up the file and find the line with Directory /var/www then change the AllowOverride to All
Restart Apache
Now, the Composer
Type composer in the Terminal and press Enter, If this show up
Then the Composer is installed
Next, download phpmyadmin
and, extract the file you have just downloaded
Then copy it to computer
var/www/html
Oh, I forgot to give this user permission
Chang the name of the folder you have just posted there to phpmyadmin
In your terminal navigate to phpmyadmin folder and copy this configuration file
type cp config then press tab
then config.inc.php
open the file you have just copy
And find the line with blowfish
Then input 32 random characters, it can be less than 32
but there will be a warning that you'll see later
In your browser navigate to localhost/phpmyadmin
The username and password here will be your MySQL username and password
Because i did not input 32 characters so it will have a warning here
Now create a database for Magento 2
Let's name it magento2
click Create
After that, download Magento 2.1
Again the link is in the description. Select the newest Branch then download the zip file
copy the zip file to Computer/var/www/html then extract it
Rename the folder to magento2 the same name with your database
In your Terminal Navigate to magento2 folder
Then type composer install
Because we did not install all the necessary extension before
So this command will return some errors
now we have to install the remaining extensions
okay, so we lack dom, xsl and simplexml
After we install these extensions
Run composer install again
When done, in your browser navigate to localhost/magento2/setup
click Check readiness
Oh, we forgot to restart the apache server after installing the extensions so we have to restart it
after that, give permission to these folders
Press Try agian
We're good
The Database Name is magento2 as we just created
The password is your MySQL password
Change this link to "admin" only for the ease of use
configure these if you like then create an admin account
Okay,now you can check your brand-new installed Magento 2 at your browser, both backend and frontend
