thank you!
(you have a typo: "Git Depoly" should be "Git Deploy") 😄

sudo yum install -y php55-mysqlnd php55 php55-xml php55-mcrypt php55-mbstring php55-cli mysql55 mysql55-server httpd24

sudo yum groupinstall -y "Web Server" "MySQL Database" "PHP Support"

What are the difference between these two scripts? currently, I'm using ec2 to host a Wordpress site with your server script to setup which is nice, but the script looks missed sth that "groupinstall" has. How can I do the groupinstall to connect the RDS plus install the phpmyadmin?? cuz I tried the groupinstall and it failed to connect the RDS and install phpmyadmin, please help.

Thank you =)

This is awesome, thank you! I've been struggling with getting php 5.5 running on ec2 and this process worked flawlessly.

So cool! thank you.

Very helpful, thank you.

Tyvm! On the last step, I tried http://YOUR_SERVER_IP/db_test.php with my ec2's url. The browser returns: object(mysqli)#1 (19) { ["affected_rows"]=> int(0) ["client_info"]=> string(79) "mysqlnd 5.0.11-dev - 20120503 - $Id: 15d5c781cfcad91193dceae1d2cdd127674ddb3e $" ["client_version"]=> int(50011) ["connect_errno"]=> int(0) ["connect_error"]=> NULL ["errno"]=> int(0) ["error"]=> string(0) "" ["error_list"]=> array(0) { } ["field_count"]=> int(0) ["host_info"]=> string(61) "rackspace.cakmjmk8ufvv.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com via TCP/IP" ["info"]=> NULL ["insert_id"]=> int(0) ["server_info"]=> string(10) "5.6.23-log" ["server_version"]=> int(50623) ["stat"]=> string(134) "Uptime: 8363 Threads: 2 Questions: 4473 Slow queries: 0 Opens: 81 Flush tables: 1 Open tables: 74 Queries per second avg: 0.534" ["sqlstate"]=> string(5) "00000" ["protocol_version"]=> int(10) ["thread_id"]=> int(74) ["warning_count"]=> int(0) }

Install PhpMyAdmin from the Amazon EPEL Repository, after Enabling EPEL:

yum-config-manager --enable epel
yum install phpmyadmin

Edit the file /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf and replace 127.0.0.1 with the ip address of the client.

nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf

Restart the web server

service httpd restart

Test to see if it works
