Configuring software
VMs with LAMP, LEMP, and Node.js do not require any initial configuration. The pre-installed software is ready for use.
For VMs requiring the deployment of content management systems, such as Drupal, GitLab, Joomla, and WordPress, use a web setup wizard to perform the initial configuration.
Configuring software via a web setup wizard
To run the web setup wizard:
-
Get the VM's public IP address. You can find out the IP address in the management console by going to the Network section on the VM's page.
-
Type
http://<IP address>in the browser address bar. This will open the authorization window.Note
If you cannot connect to the VM, try again in a few minutes.
-
Complete the steps of the web setup wizard while following the developer recommendations for Drupal, GitLab, Joomla, or WordPress.
During software configuration, you may need the DB connection parameters. To find out these parameters, connect to the VM over SSH and run the following command:
sudo cat /root/default_passwords.txt
