Comments on How to install Wordpress 4.5 on Ubuntu 16.04 LAMP
This document describes how to install and configure Wordpress 4.5 on Ubuntu 16.04. WordPress started in 2003 with a single bit of code to enhance the typography of everyday writing and with fewer users than you can count on your fingers and toes. Since then it has grown to be the largest self-hosted blogging tool in the world, used on millions of sites and seen by tens of millions of people every day. This tutorial explains the process of installing Wordpress 4.5 on Ubuntu 16.04 in the form of a simple-to-follow guide.

I wanted to thank you for a well written article. Just FYI this will not work on Comcast. Well not on the average Comcast service anymore. You can thank them for blocking port incomming port 80. I was trully confused why my server was not being port forwaded on an incomming 80 to internal ip 80 when all was well internally.
It turns out comcast blocks incomming 80 now. I changed the incomming port to 6969 and added :6969 to the end of the url and it worked.
Just an FYI on those that become confused like I did. You might add that little tidbit to your article. It is what I used to build my webserver in the first place.
Kind Regards to you all

Very good how to install WordPress on a new system. The only problem was when WordPress wanted to link up to the Database. I know the name and password to the database was right but it was the Database name had to ad the db at the end. I guess you should say this or when making the database don't add the db at the end.
Thank you.
O yes I install this on a super small Nanopi. Tested out this WordPress on it some and don't see a slow down on this little board. They did a good job on this think.
I had to hook up a RS232 to it till it got a IP address. Then could just go to it's IP.
Thank you.
Hello my wordpress has been installed here http://94.177.241.212/wordpress/ how can I make it to http://94.177.241.212/?Thanks

Good job! Everything works nicely under Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa
Getting this error. "The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini." I've tried adding the following to .htaccess but it does not work.
php_value upload_max_filesize 64M php_value post_max_size 64M php_value max_execution_time 300 php_value max_input_time 300I modified the php.ini file in /etc/php/7.0/cli and still not working. Why is it so difficult to fix this issue. WP should ask you to change this during the install. With the size of media today 2MB is just a rediculously small file size to default too.
The file /etc/php/7.0/cli/php.ini id for the commandline php. Edit /etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini instead and then restart the web server.
thank you for this easy to read article. everything works great and without any problems...
thank a lot :D
Thanks for posting this tutorial. I was able to setup wordpress by following your instructions. I found a few very good tutorials on how to do this but yours is the best and easiest to understand.
Hi, it's one of the best explanation I found. But now I have a question: My IP changed unfortunately. I thought I had it fixed. Instead of 192.168.1.2 its now 19.168.1.6 and nothing is working anymore. How can I fix this?
Thnak for the tutorial, but I'm stuck in he part 3 the url http://192.168.1.100/wordpress/: does'n work.
