Step 1 – Install and Enable Remi Repository
Firstly, we will add the Remi repository to the CentOS 7 system. The Remi repository provides the latest version of Redis package for our installation.
Before adding the Remi repository, let’s install the EPEL repository and yum utility packages.
sudo yum install epel-release yum-utils
Now add the Remi repository for CentOS 7 using the yum command below.
sudo yum install http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm
After that, enable the ‘remi’ repository using the yum-config-manager tool as below.
sudo yum-config-manager --enable remi
The Remi repository has been added and enabled on the CentOS 7 system, check using the yum command Continue reading “Install and Secure Redis on CentOS 7” »
Follow the steps below to install the latest stable version of MongoDB on your CentOS server :
Enabling MongoDB repository
To add the MongoDB repository to your system, open your text editor and create a new YUM repository configuration file named mongodb-org.repo inside the /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory:
nano /etc/yum.repos.d/mongodb-org.repo
[mongodb-org-4.0] name=MongoDB Repository baseurl=https://repo.mongodb.org/yum/redhat/$releasever/mongodb-org/4.0/x86_64/ gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 gpgkey=https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-4.0.asc
If you want to install an older version of MongoDB, replace each instance of 4.0 with your preferred version. Continue reading “Install MongoDB on CentOS 7” »
Couldn’t find any article that explained step by step how to resize the main disks volume in a CentOS 7 vm. In my example I started witha single disk of 8GB and expanded to 20GB. I have two partitions on disk sda
sda1 type Linux for boot
sda2 type Linux LVM for the remaining logical volumes
Space utilisation as following:
[root@vcd-c1-s1 ~]# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on devtmpfs 3.9G 0 3.9G 0% /dev tmpfs 3.9G 0 3.9G 0% /dev/shm tmpfs 3.9G 8.8M 3.9G 1% /run tmpfs 3.9G 0 3.9G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup /dev/mapper/centos-root 6.2G 1.9G 4.4G 31% / /dev/sda1 1014M 179M 836M 18% /boot tmpfs 783M 0 783M 0% /run/user/0

Create and open this new file using your text editor:
sudo vi /etc/yum.repos.d/webmin.repo
Then add these lines to the file to define the new repository:
nano /etc/yum.repos.d/webmin.repo
[Webmin] name=Webmin Distribution Neutral #baseurl=http://download.webmin.com/download/yum mirrorlist=http://download.webmin.com/download/yum/mirrorlist enabled=1
Save the file and exit the editor. Continue reading “Install webmin on Centos 7 using Yum” »
Installing Development Tools
Development tools are required for building Python modules. To install the necessary tools and libraries type:
sudo yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'
Enable Software Collections (SCL)
Software Collections , also known as SCL is a community project that allows you to build, install, and use multiple versions of software on the same system, without affecting system default packages. By enabling SCL you will gain access to the newer versions of programming languages and services which are not available in the core repositories.
CentOS 7 ships with Python 2.7.5 which is a critical part of the CentOS base system. SCL allows you to install newer versions of python 3.x alongside the default python v2.7.5 so that system tools such as yum will continue to work properly.
To enable SCL, you need to install the CentOS SCL release file. It is part of the CentOS extras repository and can be installed by running the following command:
sudo yum install centos-release-scl

OpenDKIM is method to digitally sign & verify emails on the mail servers using public & private keys. In other words opendkim implements the DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail) standard for signing and verifying email messages on a per-domain basis. DomainKeys are implemented to reduce the chances of outgoing mails to be marked as SPAM.
In this post we will demonstrate how to install & configure DomainKeys with postfix (MTA) on CentOS 7, i am assuming Postfix is already installed with following domain and hostname.
Hostname = mail5.freshdaymall.com Domain = freshdaymall.com
Step:1 Set EPEL Repository using below rpm command
OpenDKIM package is not available in the default yum repositories but available in CentOS 7 EPEL repositories
[root@mail5 ~]# rpm -Uvh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
Step:2 Install OpenDKIM Package using yum
[root@mail5 ~]# yum install -y opendkim
Step:3 Run below Command to create keys
Execute the below command to create public & private keys under folder “/etc/opendkim/keys” Continue reading “Configure DomainKeys- DKIM (OpenDKIM) with Postfix on CentOS 7” »
Installing packages
Step 1 » Assign hostname for the server using the below command.
[root@krizna ~]# hostnamectl set-hostname mail.krizna.com
Step 2 » Make a host entry with your IP in /etc/hosts file.
172.27.0.51 mail.krizna.com
Step 3 » Now start installing packages.
[root@krizna ~]# yum -y install postfix dovecot
After package installation continue with postfix configuration. Continue reading “Setup mail server on centos 7 using postfix and dovecot” »
Step 1 – Setup Yum Repository
In the first step install all the required yum repositories in your system used in the remaining tutorial for various installations. You are adding REMI, EPEL, Webtatic & MySQL community server repositories in your system.
CentOS / RHEL 7
yum install epel-release rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm rpm -Uvh http://repo.mysql.com/mysql-community-release-el7-7.noarch.rpm
Step 2 – Install PHP 7.4
Now install php 7 packages from webtatic rpm repository using following command.
yum --enablerepo=remi-php74 install php
Now install required php modules. Use following command to list available modules in yum repositories.
yum --enablerepo=remi-php74 search php
Now check all listed modules in above command and install required modules like below.
yum --enablerepo=remi-php74 install php-mysql php-xml php-soap php-xmlrpc php-mbstring php-json php-gd php-mcrypt
For additonal php function to install use the command syntax below-
yum --enablerepo=remi-php74 install <your-php-funciton>
