Deploy a WordPress Blog using Bitnami

Carinnan

Update: It seems that the Linux .run file used below is no longer provided by Bitnami. Sad…

WordPress usually requires a LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) or LNMP environment, which can be complicated to deploy and migrate. Bitnami provides an easier way to handle those tasks.

Download the .run file from the official website, then run chmod +x *.run to make it executable and follow the official instructions. On some Linux distributions, it may report that libtinfo.so.5 is missing. Install it with:

1
sudo apt install libtinfo5

Use bncert-tool to obtain a TLS certificate and configure it automatically. The tool is usually located at /opt/wordpress/bncert-tool.
