Install LEMP (Linux, Nginx, MySQL 5.5.29, PHP 5.4.11) on RHEL/CentOS 5-6 & Fedora 18-12
By Ravi Saive Under: CentOS, Databases, Fedora, Linux Distros, MySQL, Nginx, PHP, RedHat, Web Servers On: January 23, 2013
This howto guide explains more deeply on how to install LEMP (Linux, Nginx, MySQL, PHP) on pre-installed Linux servers and installation instructions can be used on various Linux distribution such as RHEL 6.2/6.1/6/5.8, CentOS
6.2/6.1/6/5.8 and Fedora 12,13,14,15,16,17,18 servers using Remi and Nginx repositories with YUM command.
In this guide we use latest MySQL 5.5.29 and PHP 5.4.11 versions with PHP-FPM modules with Nginx. So, before moving further for installation let’s discuss about Nginx and PHP-FPM.
► Install PHP ► Install RPM ► Apache ► Centos

Setup LEMP Stack in Linux
What is Nginx?
Nginx (Engine X) is open source robust light and high performance Web server, reverse proxy sever and also mail proxy server for HTTP, SMTP, POP3 and IMAP protocols. To know more about features visit
http://wiki.nginx.org/Overview
What is PHP-FPM?
PHP-FPM stands for FastCGI Process Manager is an alternative PHP FastCGI implementation with some additional useful features for heavily loaded websites. For more information visit http://php-fpm.org/
Install LEMP (Linux, Nginx, MySQL, PHP) on RHEL 6.2/6.1/6/5.8, CentOS 6.2/6.1/6/5.8 and Fedora 12,13,14,15,16,17,18
Step 1: Installing Remi Repository
## Install Remi Repository on Fedora 18, 17, 16, 15 ### rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm # rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm
## Fedora 18 ### rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/remi-release-18.rpm
## Fedora 17 ### rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/remi-release-17.rpm
## Fedora 16 ### rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/remi-release-16.rpm
## Fedora 15 ### rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/remi-release-15.rpm
## Fedora 14 ### rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/remi-release-14.rpm
## Fedora 13 ### rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/remi-release-13.rpm
## Fedora 12 ### rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/remi-release-12.rpm
## Install Remi Repository on RHEL/CentOS 6.3-6.0 ### rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm# rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm
7/29/13 Install LEMP (Linux, Nginx, MySQL 5.5.29, PHP 5.4.11) on RHEL/CentOS 5-6 & Fedora 18-12
www.tecmint.com/install-lemp-linux-nginx-mysql-php-on-rhel-centos-5-6-fedora-12-17/ 3/13
## Install Remi Repository on RHEL/CentOS 5.4-5.0 ##
# rpm -Uvh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm# rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-5.rpm
Step 2: Installing Nginx Repository
Nginx repository only needed in RHEL/CentOS distributions. So, create a file called /etc/yum.repos.d/nginx.repo and add the following lines to it.
For RHEL 6.3/6.2/6.1/6/5.8
[nginx]name=nginx repobaseurl=http://nginx.org/packages/rhel/$releasever/$basearch/gpgcheck=0enabled=1
For CentOS 6.3/6.2/6.1/6/5.8
[nginx]name=nginx repobaseurl=http://nginx.org/packages/centos/$releasever/$basearch/gpgcheck=0enabled=1
Step 3: Installing Ngnix, MySQL 5.5.29, PHP 5.4.11 & PHP-FPM
## Installing on Fedora 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 ### yum --enablerepo=remi install nginx mysql mysql-server php php-common php-fpm
## Installing on RHEL/CentOS 5-6 ### yum --enablerepo=remi,remi-test install nginx mysql mysql-server php php-common php-fpm
Step 4: Installing PHP 5.4.11 Modules
## Installing on Fedora 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 ### yum --enablerepo=remi install php-mysql php-pgsql php-pecl-mongo php-sqlite php-pecl-memcache php-pecl-memcached php-gd php-mbstring php-mcrypt php-xml php-pecl-apc php-cli php-pear php-pdo
## Installing on RHEL/CentOS 5-6 ### yum --enablerepo=remi,remi-test install php-mysql php-pgsql php-pecl-mongo php-sqlite php-pecl-memcache php-pecl-memcached php-gd php-mbstring php-mcrypt php-xml php-pecl-apc php-cli php-pear php-pdo
Step 5: Stopping Apache Service
Apache and Nginx both services are bind to same port (i.e. 80). So, you must stop turn-off Apache in order to use Nginx.
# chkconfig --levels 235 httpd off# /etc/init.d/httpd stop
Step 6: Starting/Stopping Nginx MySQL and PHP-FPM
## Enable Nginx, MySQL and PHP-FPM on Boot ### chkconfig --add nginx# chkconfig --add mysqld# chkconfig --add php-fpm
## Enable Nginx, MySQL and PHP-FPM on Run Levels ### chkconfig --levels 235 nginx on# chkconfig --levels 235 mysqld on# chkconfig --levels 235 php-fpm on
## Nginx Startup Commands ## # /etc/init.d/nginx start# /etc/init.d/nginx stop# /etc/init.d/nginx status
7/29/13 Install LEMP (Linux, Nginx, MySQL 5.5.29, PHP 5.4.11) on RHEL/CentOS 5-6 & Fedora 18-12
www.tecmint.com/install-lemp-linux-nginx-mysql-php-on-rhel-centos-5-6-fedora-12-17/ 4/13
## MySQL Startup Commands ## # /etc/init.d/mysqld start# /etc/init.d/mysqld stop# /etc/init.d/mysqld status
## PHP-FPM Startup Commands ### /etc/init.d/php-fpm start# /etc/init.d/php-fpm stop# /etc/init.d/php-fpm status
Step 7: Configuring Nginx and PHP-FPM
Creating Website Directory
Creating a directory structure for your website under /srv/www/. In my case I used www.tecmint.com. This way you can create for your real site.
## public_html directory and logs directory ### mkdir -p /srv/www/tecmint/public_html# mkdir /srv/www/tecmint/logs# chown -R nginx:nginx /srv/www/tecmint
Creating Website Logs
Creating log directories under /var/log.
## public_html directory and logs directory ### mkdir -p /srv/www/tecmint/public_html# mkdir -p /var/log/nginx/tecmint# chown -R nginx:nginx /srv/www/tecmint# chown -R nginx:nginx /var/log/nginx
Configuring Virtual Host Directories
Creating virtual host directoires under /etc/nginx.
# mkdir /etc/nginx/sites-available# mkdir /etc/nginx/sites-enabled
Add following line of code to /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file at the end, before closing (http block) tag.
## Load virtual host conf files. ##include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;
For reference see below red line of code, how i added to the file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf.
http { include /etc/nginx/mime.types; default_type application/octet-stream;
log_format main '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" ' '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" ' '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log main;
sendfile on; #tcp_nopush on;
keepalive_timeout 65;
#gzip on;
include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
7/29/13 Install LEMP (Linux, Nginx, MySQL 5.5.29, PHP 5.4.11) on RHEL/CentOS 5-6 & Fedora 18-12
www.tecmint.com/install-lemp-linux-nginx-mysql-php-on-rhel-centos-5-6-fedora-12-17/ 5/13
Bio Latest Posts
include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;
}
Creating Virtual Host file for Tecmint
Add the following lines of code to /etc/nginx/sites-available/tecmint file. This is a basic virtual host config file.
server { server_name tecmint; access_log /srv/www/tecmint/logs/access.log; error_log /srv/www/tecmint/logs/error.log; root /srv/www/tecmint/public_html;
location / { index index.html index.htm index.php; }
location ~ .php$ { include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params; fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /srv/www/tecmint/public_html$fastcgi_script_name; }}
Linking Tecmint Virtual Host
Linking tecmint virtual host to /etc/nginx/sites-enabled.
# cd /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/# ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/tecmint
Restarting Nginx Service
We need here restart for Nginx service to reflect all the configuration which we have done above.
# /etc/init.d/nginx restart
Adding Virtual Domain to Host File
Add the newly created virtual host domain to your local host file /etc/hosts.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost tecmint
Step 8: Testing Nginx, MySQL, PHP and PHP-FPM
Create a file called phpinfo.php under /srv/www/tecmint/public_html/ and add the following lines of code to it. For example (/srv/www/tecmint/public_html/phpinfo.php).
<?php
phpinfo ();?>
Now access the page with web browser using http://tecmint/phpinfo.php and verify all versions.

In step 7, why some of commands in “Creating Website Directory” and “Creating Website Logs” such as mkdir -p /srv/www/tecmint/public_html & chown -R nginx:nginx /srv/www/tecmint are duplicate?

Have you installed MySQL and php-cgi packages correctly? If not, install them correctly. Because the errors clearly saying you don’t have those files.

The 6-7 release is no longer active via the link in the first section of this post. Just a heads up in case someone encounters a 404 when attempting to install the RPM.

hello, I have the following problem in php-fpm. I set up nginx + php-fpm + mysql and it occurs, the processes of php-fpm are always running on Linux, even after the client close the connection, the processes remain active, the only way
to solve it by restarting the service php -fpm. Did this happen to you?
