'''NOTE:''' These instructions, as they stand, set up WordPress as just a part of your existing web site. (eg.: www.foo.bar/WP)

==Install the LAMP Stack==

[[WebServer - Basic LAMP Stack Install|Basic LAMP Stack Install]]

==Install WordPress==

*<code>wget -c <nowiki>http://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz</nowiki></code>
*<code>tar -xzvf latest.tar.gz</code>
*<code>sudo rsync -av wordpress/* /var/www/html/WP/</code>
*<code>sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/</code>
*<code>sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/</code>
*<code>sudo mysql -u root -p</code>
**To wipe the database if needed...
**<code>DROP DATABASE wp_Someblog;</code>

CREATE DATABASE wp_Someblog;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON wp_Someblog.* TO 'somebody'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;

*<code>sudo mv /var/www/html/WP/wp-config-sample.php /var/www/html/WP/wp-config.php</code>
*<code>sudo vim /var/www/html/WP/wp-config.php</code>

// ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', 'wp_Someblog');
/** MySQL database username */
define('DB_USER', 'somebody');
/** MySQL database password */
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'somebody');
/** MySQL hostname */
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
/** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */
define('DB_COLLATE', <nowiki>''</nowiki>);

*<code>sudo systemctl restart apache2.service</code>
*<code>sudo systemctl restart mysql.service</code>

== Extra Notes ==
=== Thing you might trip over ===
Some plugins require mod_rewrite & won't work without AllowOverride being enabled in apache2.conf.

* <code>sudo vi /etc/apache2/apache2.conf</code>

Scroll down & find the '''<Directory /var/www/>''' block.

Change '''AllowOverride None''' to '''AllowOverride All'''

Save the file & restart Apache.

=Learning Proxmox=
==Installing==
==Configuring==
===Fixing oddities===
====Get rid of the bloody subscription notice====
[https://johnscs.com/remove-proxmox51-subscription-notice/ Remove Proxmox Subscription Notice]
====Get non-paid Proxmox to actually do updates====
By default, Proxmox enables '''http://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve''' as its update repository.

You have to have a '''PAID''' subscription to use this repository...

Updates '''FAIL''' if this repository is enabled.

To fix this, you must MANUALLY edit '''/etc/apt/sources.list''' (Don't know WHY it can't be added in the GUI...)

* <code>vi /etc/apt/sources.list</code>

& add in:

# PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com,
# NOT recommended for production use
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve bullseye pve-no-subscription

Then:

* Sign into the GUI
* Select your 'Node'
* Select 'Repositories'
* Select 'https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve'
* Hit the 'Disable' button

(Sure would be nice if this could either be completely done on the command line or done automatically during install...)

====Server addressing via DHCP instead of static====
Edit the interfaces file:
* <code>vi /etc/network/interfaces</code>

& change

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
address 192.168.8.12/23
gateway 192.168.8.1
bridge-ports eno1
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0

to

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet dhcp
bridge-ports eno1
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0

Then ignore the address it shows on the console. (Until I figure out where in hell it's storing that...)
