Week 6.3—initial_ec2

Completing the Set-Up by Yourself!!

1 min readOct 10, 2021

Last time, we downloaded and ran the EC2 code to prepare our server for uploads. However, this time, we will do it manually, running every single component by our hands.

Setting Time Zone (Korea)

sudo ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Seoul /etc/localtime

Python

sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3 10

PIP (PIP3 -> PIP)

# downlaod pip3 
sudo apt-get update 
sudo apt-get install -y python3-pip  # command for pip instead of pip3 
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/pip pip /usr/bin/pip3 1

MongoDB

Download MongoDB

wget -qO - https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-4.2.asc | sudo apt-key add -  echo "deb [ arch=amd64,arm64 ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu bionic/mongodb-org/4.2 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-4.2.list  sudo apt-get update  sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org

2. Run MongoDB

sudo service mongod start

3. Create an Account for MongoDB

# change account type to admin
use admin;  # create account and set passwords
db.createUser({user: "test", pwd: "test", roles:["root"]});

Port Forwarding (80 -> 5000)

sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 5000

Done! Next time, we’ll finally upload our projects to the server.

Fin.
