Connect to EC2 instance with SSH
Run this command, if necessary, to ensure your key is not publicly viewable.
chmod 400 <certificate_name>.pem
Connect to your instance using its Public DNS
ssh -i <certificate_name>.pem ec2-user@public_dns
Install Apache Server
To ensure that all of your software packages are up to date, perform a quick software update on your instance.
sudo yum update -y
Use the yum install command to install Apache web server
sudo yum install -y httpd
Start the Apache web server.
sudo systemctl start httpd
Use the systemctl command to configure the Apache web server to start at each system boot.
sudo systemctl enable httpd
You can verify that httpd is on by running the following command:
sudo systemctl is-enabled httpd
Now if open the public IPv4 address inside a browser you can see Apache home page
Setup Apache Permissions
Apache httpd serves files that are kept in a directory called the Apache document root. The Amazon Linux Apache document root is /var/www/html, which by default is owned by root.
To allow the ec2-user account to manipulate files in this directory, you must modify the ownership and permissions of the directory.
Add user (in this case, ec2-user) to the apache group.
sudo usermod -a -G apache ec2-user
Log out and then log back in again to pick up the new group, and then verify your membership.
Change the group ownership of /var/www and its contents to the apache group.
sudo chown -R ec2-user:apache /var/www
To add group write permissions and to set the group ID on future subdirectories, change the directory permissions of /var/www and its subdirectories.
sudo chmod 2775 /var/www && find /var/www -type d -exec sudo chmod 2775 {} \;
To add group write permissions, recursively change the file permissions of /var/www and its subdirectories:
find /var/www -type f -exec sudo chmod 0664 {} \;
Install PHP
For installing Mautic 3 you need to install atleast php7.2 as per the time of writing this article
you can get current requirements here
you can use amazon-linux-extras commands to install php
sudo amazon-linux-extras install -y php7.2
To test PHP, create a PHP file in the Apache document root.
echo "<?php phpinfo(); ?>" > /var/www/html/phpinfo.php
In a web browser, type the URL of the file that you just created. This URL is the public DNS address of your instance followed by a forward slash and the file name. For example:
http://`my.public.dns.amazonaws.com`/phpinfo.php
