In fact, the cloud products of large factories have now lowered the threshold to a very low level. Tengxunyun's
Lightweight Application Server Lighthouse
(industry commonly known as "lighthouse") is specifically for independent webmasters, developers and novice prepared to build a sharp weapon. It packs complex server operations into a "one-click switch" mirror image.
Today, we don't talk about big principles, don't pile up professional terms, and go straight to pure dry goods. Guiding you step by step
Complete the unpacking and initialization of tengxunyun Lighthouse in 3 minutes, and set up a beautiful blog of your own
.
Step 1: Purchase and server initialization (1 minute)
The principle of purchasing a server is:
On-demand selection, computer room nearby, mirror selection integrated
.
1. Find the entrance
Open Tengxun cloud official website and enter in the search box at the top after logging in.
"Lightweight Application Server"
(or search Lighthouse directly), click to enter the product home page.
2. How to choose the configuration?
Click "New" or "Buy Now" and you'll see a configuration selection screen. For personal blogs, the core parameters are checked like this:
Region: Choose the city physically closest to you or your target audience (for example, if you are in the south, Guangzhou or Shenzhen is preferred; Beijing is preferred in the north). The closer the distance, the faster the web page opens.
Application Mirror (Core): Tengxun Cloud has prepared the officially packaged environment very kindly. It is highly recommended to choose "WordPress".💡Popularization of science in the vernacular: WordPress is the world's number one blog website building program with extremely powerful ecology and numerous free themes and plug-ins. Choosing this application image means that Tengxun Cloud will automatically help you install Linux, Nginx, MySQL, PHP (that is, LNMP environment) and WordPress source codes in the background, thus avoiding the pain of manually typing and installing codes.
Package specifications: for personal beginners, choosing the most basic 1-core 2G or 2-core 2G package is completely enough, only a dozen dollars per month.
3. Set the password
After the purchase is successful, enter the lightweight application server console. Find the server you just bought in the instance list, click in, and find "reset password" in the basic information ".
Set a complex administrator password (the user name defaults
root
or
admin
, depending on the system), and then click Restart to make the password take effect.
Step 2: Release Tengxun Cloud "Firewall" Port (Key to Unpacking in 3 Minutes)
This is the novice station failure rate of the highest "first big pit". Many people found that they could not open the web page after following the tutorial, because tengxunyun locked the "gate" of the server by default.
in Lig
hthouse the instance details page and switch to the Firewall tab.
Click Add Rule ".
Application Type: Select HTTP (80) and HTTPS (443) ". This is the standard port for web access and must be released.
In addition, check whether port 8000 has been released by default in the list (some versions of WordPress mirror need it for background initialization). If not, add a limit manually.
Step 3: Get the blog background password with one click (1 minute)
The door is open, and next we are going to get the "initial administrator account and password" of WordPress blog ". Because the official image is fully automatically installed, the password is hidden inside the server.
In the upper-right corner of the instance details page, click the blue Login button. Tengxun Cloud will pop up a secret-free Web terminal window (OrcaTerm).
After coming in, you will see a line of warm tips, directly enter the following command in the dark window and hit enter:
Bash
sudo credential_util
The screen will instantly print out your blog background address, initial user name (usually admin) and a random initial password.
Take a small notebook and write down this string of passwords, then close the black window.
Step 4: Log in to the blog and complete the final configuration (1 minute)
Now it's time to witness the miracle.
Open your computer's browser, enter your server's "public IP" directly in the address bar, and press Enter.
What comes into view is already the WordPress default blog home page!
Add/wp-admin to your IP address (e. g. http
: // 123.45.67.89/wp-admin), you will jump to the background login interface of the blog.
Enter the username admin and the complicated initial password you just wrote down, and click Login.

Pit Avoidance Guide and Daily Operation and Maintenance
Why does the access prompt "not filed"? If you purchase
I bought servers in mainland China (such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou). According to regulations, domain names must be filed with Tencent Cloud for ICP before they can be bound and accessed publicly. If you don't want to put on record or are in a hurry to go online, you should give priority to the Lighthouse of Hong Kong, China or overseas nodes when buying servers. Those places don't need to put on record and can be used directly after analyzing the domain name.
Don't upload several G's of large video and lightweight server directly in the background of the blog. The system disk is usually 40G ~ 60G SSD, which is very precious. It's okay to write articles with pictures, but if you want to put high-definition videos, don't upload them directly to the blog media library. The correct way is to put the video in COS (Object Storage) of Tengxun Cloud, and then paste the video link in the blog, so that it does not take up server space, but also plays with CDN acceleration, which is an excellent experience.
Make good use of the "snapshot" function regularly to toss blog themes and install various plug-ins, which are the fun of independent webmasters. However, some plug-ins will conflict with each other and may crash the website. How to save your life: Before you want to change your website or upgrade your WordPress version, go to Tengxun cloud console and click "Snapshot" $\rightarrow $"Create Snapshot". This is your free time machine. In case the web page hangs up later, click "Roll Back Cloud Disk" and you can save it intact in 30 seconds.
This application mirroring mode Lighthouse by Tengxun Cloud has turned the originally boring bottom-level operation and maintenance into as simple as installing a mobile phone APP. 3 minutes out of the box, the rest of the time, left to you to concentrate on the production of high-quality content!
