Step 1 – Install EasyEngine<\/h2>\n
EasyEngine currently offers support for Ubuntu and Debian based Linux systems. In this section, we will install the EasyEngine tool on Ubuntu 18.04 and Debian 8 server using the installer script.<\/p>\n
Log in to the server and update all repositories.<\/p>\n
sudo apt update<\/p>\n
Download the EasyEngine installer script and run it.<\/p>\n
wget -qO ee rt.cx\/ee && sudo bash ee<\/p>\n
The installer script will install all packages and dependencies needed.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nNow we will be asked about the name and an email.<\/p>\n
Type the name and the email address.<\/p>\n
![\"Enter](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-1.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nAfter the installation has been completed, you will get the result as below.<\/p>\n
![\"Install](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-2.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nAfter the installation, we need to apply the bash auto-completion for EasyEngine ee command.<\/p>\n
Run the following command.<\/p>\n
source \/etc\/bash_completion.d\/ee_auto.rc<\/p>\n
And check the version of EasyEngine that has been installed.<\/p>\n
sudo ee –version<\/p>\n
![\"Show](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-3.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nThe EasyEngine command-line tool has been installed on Ubuntu 18.04.<\/p>\n
Step 2 – Install WordPress with EasyEngine<\/h2>\n
EasyEngine comes with some features that make WordPress easy to deploy.<\/p>\n
EasyEngine features:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Supports for MultiSite WordPress site (through a domain-name or sub-directory).<\/li>\n
- Easy to enable cache settings for WordPress including, Memcached Nginx cache, Redis, W3 Total Cache, and WP Super Cache.<\/li>\n
- Easy to manage the server stack including basic LEMP stack, install additional packages such as phpMyAdmin, adminer, nginx pagespeed etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
In this section, we will learn basic WordPress installation using the EasyEngine ee command. And then installing WordPress using the PHP-FPM 7.0 and enable the SSL Letsencrypt for our installation.<\/p>\n
Install WordPress with Basic Configuration<\/h3>\n
Run the ee command below.<\/p>\n
sudo ee site create wp.hakase-labs.io –wp<\/p>\n
When it’s complete, you will get detailed info about the site, including WordPress login admin and password.<\/p>\n
![\"Install](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-4.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nAnd you will get the WordPress installed on ‘\/var\/www\/wp.hakase-labs.io’ directory and using the PHP-FPM 5.6.<\/p>\n
Check using ee command below.<\/p>\n
sudo ee site info wp.hakase-labs.io<\/p>\n
![\"Check](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-5.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nInstall WordPress with Cache Settings<\/h3>\n
EasyEngine provides automatic WordPress cache settings for the following software:<\/p>\n
- \n
- –wpfc: Nginx Cache<\/li>\n
- –w3tc: W3 Total Cache<\/li>\n
- –wpsc: WP Super Cache<\/li>\n
- –wpredis: WP Redis Cache<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Install WordPress with basic Nginx cache and W3 Total Cache using the ee command below.<\/p>\n
sudo ee site create wp.hakase-labs.io –wpfc<\/p>\n
And the following is the result.<\/p>\n
![\"Create](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-6.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nInstall WordPress with PHP 7.0<\/h3>\n
By default, the ee command will force to install PHP-FPM 5.6 for our WordPress installation. And if you want to install the site with the newest version PHP-FPM 7.0, use the ‘–php7’ option.<\/p>\n
Run the ee command below.<\/p>\n
sudo ee site create wp.hakase-labs.io –wpfc –php7<\/p>\n
Now check the stack details info.<\/p>\n
sudo ee site info wp.hakase-labs.io<\/p>\n
![\"Install](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-7.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nInstall WordPress with PHP-FPM 7.0, WordPress Cache, and SSL Letsencrypt<\/h3>\n
To install the WordPress using the PHP-FPM 7.0 with the WordPress Cache and SSL Letsencrypt, run the ee command below.<\/p>\n
sudo ee site create wp.hakase-labs.io –wpfc –php7 –letsencrypt<\/p>\n
![\"Install](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-8.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nAnd you will be asked about the SSL Letsencrypt configuration for the domain name.<\/p>\n
Type ‘y’ for yes and then press Enter.<\/p>\n
Following is the result.<\/p>\n
![\"Installation](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-9.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nThe WordPress installation with the PHP-FPM 7.0, SSL Letsencrypt, and Nginx Cache enabled has been completed successfully.<\/p>\n
Step 3 – Additional SSL Configuration (on Ubuntu 18.04)<\/h2>\n
In this step, we will add the SSL configuration for the Nginx web server.<\/p>\n
By default, EasyEngine stores the SSL configuration at the ‘\/var\/www\/domain.com\/conf’ directory.<\/p>\n
Go to the ‘\/var\/www\/domain.com\/conf’ directory.<\/p>\n
cd \/var\/www\/domain.com\/<\/p>\n
Now edit the Nginx configuration ‘nginx\/ssl.conf’<\/p>\n
vim nginx\/ssl.conf<\/p>\n
Add the ‘ssl_ciphers’ configuration below.<\/p>\n
ssl_ciphers 'ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:AES256+EECDH:AES256+EDH';<\/pre>\n
Save and exit.<\/p>\n
![\"Nginx](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-10.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nNow restart the EasyEngine stack using the ee command below.<\/p>\n
sudo ee stack restart<\/p>\n
SSL configuration for WordPress site under the EasyEngine has been completed.<\/p>\n
![\"Configuration](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-11.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nStep 4 – Testing<\/h2>\n
Open the web browser and type the WordPress URL installation, mine is:\u00a0http:\/\/hakase-labs.io\/<\/p>\n
And you will be redirected to the https connection and shown the default WordPress home page with the ‘twentyseventeen’ theme as below.<\/p>\n
![\"WordPress](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-12.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nNow open the WordPress login page, mine is:\u00a0http:\/\/hakase-labs.io\/wp-login.php<\/p>\n
Type the username and password given during the installation.<\/p>\n
![\"Wordpress](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-13.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nAnd you will get the WordPress dashboard.<\/p>\n
![\"WordPress](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-14.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\nInstallation and configuration of the WordPress site with Cache Configuration and SSL Letsencrypt using EasyEngine on Ubuntu 18.04 or Debian Jessie 8 have been completed successfully.<\/p>\n
Step 5 – Common Errors<\/h2>\n
SSL SPDY Error on Ubuntu 18.04<\/h3>\n
Error page on google chrome.<\/p>\n
![\"SSL](\"https:\/\/afaghhosting.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-easyengine-on-ubuntu-18-04-and-debian-15.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a><\/p>\n“ERR_SPDY_INADEQUATE_TRANSPORT_SECURITY”.<\/p>\n
Answer:<\/p>\n
Back to the ‘Step 3 – Additional SSL Configuration’<\/p>\n
Generate SSL Letsencrypt Error<\/h3>\n
Error messages:<\/p>\n
“Unable to setup, Let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Encrypt”<\/p>\n
Answer:<\/p>\n
By default, EasyEngine creates the nginx virtual host that contains domain name ‘domain.com’ and ‘www.domain.com’. So make sure you’ve added the ‘www’ CNAME on your DNS configuration.<\/p>\n
