Setup WordPress on OpenShift with Domain

Advertisement

Here is a full guide to rightly setup WordPress on OpenShift PaaS with domain name and avoid any possible problem with OpenShift’s App Name. There is no meaning of repeating the initial steps to Setup WordPress on OpenShift, we have two years old guide plus one year old video guide to setup WordPress on OpenShift. Google search claims to become bias free, you need improvement of hosting. OpenShift is Free PaaS but highly scalable and you can use the paid service for full support.

 

Setup WordPress on OpenShift with Domain : First Steps

 

PaaS, by default will have issue with naked domain name pointing. Take that, your domain name is jima.in. You should use www.jima.in. First, create a free account on CloudFlare and point the naked domain to the IP written here :

Vim
1
2
http://wwwizer.com/naked-domain-redirect
# 174.129.25.170

A Record against the domain jima.in will be that IP with 5 minutes TTL. You can do a nslookup with debug flag :

Vim
1
nslookup -debug jima.in

When you’ll get a right response, add a www as CNAME and add the already created OpenShift PaaS App URL to point towards it. Now, go to naked domain’s page rules and add 301 redirect (with pattern match). So, your working domain is www.jima.in not jima.in as you do not have a dedicated IP.

Setup WordPress on OpenShift with Domain : Managing WordPress Problems

 

It is better to have two gears for your WordPress setup. You should login to MySQL instance and run MySQL Queries to like we have shown to change WordPress URLs rom HTTP to HTTPS. You’ll change from OpenShift APP url to www.jima.in in our example. You actually should force WordPress to engulf www.jima.in as the main address. This can be set from /wp-admin/options-general.php or by adding snippets on wp-config.php. You can use Search and Replace Plugin if you fear to use MySQL from command line. Everything should work rightly.

Basically, we should point the domain name first, then install WordPress with the domain name, this problem happens with installing WordPress with IP address on Cloud IaaS. We pointed towards two approaches, first one is easy, second one we have not explained here and any advanced user can follow the second way.
