1. Install the epel repo by running yum install epel-release
2. Install the MariaDB 10.1 repo, use the repo generator here and put the contents in the repo file at /etc/yum.repos.d/MariaDB.repo
3. Install the remi repo by downloading and installing the remi RPM with this command: rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm

1. Install the required software for running MariaDB with the following command: yum install MariaDB-server MariaDB-client
2. Start MariaDB by running: service mysql start
3. Ensure MariaDB starts with the machine by running the following command: chkconfig mysql on
4. (Optional) You may wish to secure your MariaDB install by running the following command: /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation

1. Install nginx by running the following command: yum install nginx
2. Start nginx by running the following command: service nginx start
3. Ensure nginx is set to start with the server by running the following command: chkconfig nginx on

Next we need to make some changes to the nginx configuration files, the first is changing how many worker processes are started:

1. Edit the nginx.conf file with vi /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
2. Locate the worker_processes variable and change it from 1 to 4
3. Save and exit the file by pressing the ESC key and typing :wq

1. Edit the default.conf file with vi /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
2. Scroll down to the commented out PHP scripts section and add the following replacing the commented out PHP sections:

   1.     # pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000
          #
          location ~ \.php$ {
              root           /usr/share/nginx/html;
              fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:9000;
              fastcgi_index  index.php;
              fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME   $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
              include        fastcgi_params;
          }

3. Save and exit the file by pressing the ESC key and typing :wq
4. Restart the nginx process with service nginx restart

nginx is all setup and ready to go, now we just need to install PHP-FPM and your fast web server will be ready for content!

Install and Setup PHP-FPM

The following will vary depending on what version of PHP-FPM you want to install. Mean Servers always recommends a version below the most recent, non-beta release but your needs may vary. It is highly recommend to avoid any PHP versions that are EOL (end of life) since they no longer receive any updates, there WILL BE SECURITY RISKS that CANNNOT be avoided. Do not run a EOL PHP version on a production machine, you will be sorry!

Once you decide on a PHP version you wish to run, edit the remi repo and enable that version. If you would like to run PHP 5.5 or PHP 5.6 (as of January 14, 2016), you would run the following (If you want to run PHP 7, skip this section):

1. Edit the remi.repo file with vi /etc/yum.repos.d/remi.repo
2. Locate either the remi-php55 section if you want to run PHP 5.5 or the remi-php56 section if you want to run PHP 5.6 and change enabled=0 to enabled=1
3. Under the remi section, ensure you change enabled=0 to enabled=1 too.
4. Save and exit the editor by pressing the ESC key and typing :wq

1. Edit the remi.repo file with vi /etc/yum.repos.d/remi.repo
2. Under the remi section, ensure you change enabled=0 to enabled=1
3. Save and exit the remi.repo file by pressing the ESC key and typing :wq
4. Edit the remi-php70.repo file with vi /etc/yum.repos.d/remi-php70.repo
5. Under the remi-php70 section and change enabled=0 to enabled=1
6. Save and exit the remi-php70.repo file by pressing the ESC key and typing :wq

1. Install PHP-FPM and the most common libraries needed by running yum install php-fpm php-mysql php-common php-json php-pdo Note that depending on how you edited the repo files above, that version will be installed.
2. Edit /etc/php.ini and ensure cgi.fix_pathinfo=0 is set to 0 and uncommented as this is a security risk. Save and exit the file.
3. Start PHP-FPM with service php-fpm start
4. Ensure PHP-FPM is set to start with the machine by running: chkconfig php-fpm on

1. Edit the www.conf file with vi /etc/php-fpm.d/www.conf
2. Locate user = apache and change to user = nginx
3. Locate group = apache and change to group = nginx
4. Save and exit the file by pressing the ESC key and typing :wq
5. Restart the PHP-FPM service with service php-fpm restart
