Usage Instructions: Thank you for using the Classmethod LAMP Stack. This AMI is based on Ubuntu 24.

1. Once the instance is running, you can connect to the operating system via SSH using your Amazon private key and the username 'ubuntu.'
2. For the DB server password, you can find it in the EC2 management console System Log. Select your instance -> Actions -> Monitor and troubleshoot -> Get System log. Alternatively, you can SSH into your instance and find the login credentials using the following command: $ cat /home/ubuntu/credentials.
3. You can access phpMyAdmin after creating an SSH tunnel. For example, create an SSH tunnel by executing the following command: $ ssh ubuntu@{ipaddress} -i {ssh-key-file.pem} -N -L 8080:localhost:80. After creating the SSH tunnel, you can access the phpMyAdmin Welcome page at http://localhost:8080/phpMyAdmin/ . Please review the steps below to confirm SSH tunnel connection. For clarity, you can also refer to a private YouTube link for video recording of the same. https://youtu.be/PBRqDnTMIzk 
4. If you want to use a MySQL user 'debian-sys-maint,' please set up the password with the MySQL root user. mysql> ALTER USER 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'YOUR_PASSWORD'; mysql> flush privileges;
5. If you are installing additional required PHP modules, install them with the PHP version. For instance, $ sudo apt install php8.2-mbstring.
