Build WordPress website on a CentOS 6.5 server.
-
I usually connect to my linux server via FTP and edit the files in Windows using Notepad++
-
@joyfano Yeah, notepad++ on windows or sublime text on MAC. You can connect to the server using SFTP and directly edit the files using the tools mentioned.
Or you can use VI editor to edit the file directly from the command http://www.cs.colostate.edu/helpdocs/vi.html

@ambarishrh Thank You so Much. I will try this very soon. Ill get back for the result
-
Good luck!
-
@ambarishrh I just realize that i already used the vi when i edit files in command
-
Yes, vi is a supported editor in most linux distributions. You just need to understand the editor and know the various commands for using vi. But to be on the safe side, make it as a practice to backup any file before you edit. I normally use the cp command to copy the original file as .back before making any changes. Saved me a lot of times!
-
Understanding and familiarizing the command is one thing that i need to do right now. I am really having fun working with this. Though I am done installing everything, I want to make sure that i really did, Is there any chance that i can view or use command in checking the application if its already installed?

@Joyfano What exactly you want to check? Are you able to browse the admin page of your wordpress installation?

I want to check if my WordPress is Successfully Installed.
Well as of this time i only have access in command No GUI. -
@Joyfano I believe this is a machine connected to network. If so, you just need to browse the wordpress server http://domainname/wp-admin/install.php from another computer. It will walk you through the next installation steps and then you can access wordpress admin page http://domainname/wp-admin/
-
If there are any installation errors, it would be shown on the wordpress page.

I got this after I'm done editing for correct substitute
// ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress');/** MySQL database username */
define('DB_USER', 'wordpressuser');/** MySQL database password */
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password');as per this instruction = http://www.cs.colostate.edu/helpdocs/vi.html
Usually the new or modified file is saved when you leave vi. However, it is also possible to quit vi without saving the file.
So is it ok if i type exit command of i need to Press specific command to save my files? -
If you've made the changes on vi editor, press the "Esc" key, then ":" key and then type "wq" (write and quit)
You can then check the changed using the command "cat filename"

Learning to use vi is one of those really important UNIX admin tips. You will need it your entire career. I've used vi literally for twenty years now and it is available everywhere, on every platform and most pros will just expect you to know it. You can work around it, but not easily in most shops. I've never worked a UNIX job where I would have been comfortable not using it - it is simply expected for everything that you do. Fellow admins would honestly be confused if you used anything else. And some jobs, like supporting Solaris at IBM, there was no other option and anyone who didn't know vi could not even start to work on the servers. It was a line in the sand between those that could and those that could not.

After working with Linux for few days mostly using command I can say honestly that's its easy to do any task using command. In my case I just need to be more familiar and of course to learn about different command line. I wish I knew this before.
