apt-get install wordpress and Cloud Installation of WordPress on Ubuntu

Advertisement

WordPress can be installed via apt-get install wordpress command as package through the universe repositories. We have explained the method for Rackspace Cloud Server. Actually, the command is easy to run than our described method to Install WordPress on Rackspace Cloud Server (Ubuntu 14.04 PVHVM). We do not use apt-get install wordpress command to install WordPress (on Debian and Ubuntu) as by default, for a new user, this is not the standard way of serving dynamic webpages – moving, shifting might get complicated or some plugin might not work properly. As not all the Plugins are created or maintained by WordPress dot ORG, we actually can not give any warranty of standard way how WordPress plugin works. For example, you might have to change the path manually in some plugins.

Apart from using apt-get install wordpress function, there is also alternative Cloud Installation of WordPress available on Ubuntu via Juju Charm. To make the clear difference to the new users, we are not describing the Cloud Installation of WordPress on Rackspace Cloud Server. That way is more complicated as you’ll need to edit the settings file. That way is good for installation of WordPress en mass, i.e. for the clients.

However, there are other methods to automate installation more precisely using OpenStack specific usages. These methods require advanced knowledge on OpenStack itself, we do not want to make a new user confused. We are describing the apt-get install wordpress function to install WordPress as readers often search for this method.
