− | * Data that is often modified is typically stored in a database.
| + | [http://wiki.littlesvr.ca/wiki/OPS345_Lab_4 This page has moved.] |
− | * AWS provides database services via RDS, though you could install your own DBMS like MariaDB on your own VM.
| |
− | * In the AWS console go to RDS. Create ops345db, with a long password that's different from other passwords. Put it in ops345sgprivate. This one will be used/seen in plain text sometimes.
| |
− | ** It will complain about not having two subnets in different availability zones.
| |
− | * In VPC/Subnets, create a new one in vpc-ops345 named subnet2-ops345, in us-east-1b instead of 1a. 10.3.45.128/25
| |
− | * Go back and try again to create the database.
| |
− | * Assign temporary elastic IP to yum install mariadb, no need for server.
| |
− | ** Disassociate and release the elastic ip.
| |
− | * Do the rest of the lab as the regular user, don't use root.
| |
− | * In the AWS Console go to RDS, and find the FQDN ("Endpoint") for the database. Such as ops345db.cobdogt5aykb.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com - record that.
| |
− | * Try to connect: mysql -u root -plongdbpassword -h ops345db.cobdogt5aykb.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com
| |
− | ** It won't work, the firewall (SG) won't allow it. Modify ops345sgprivate to allow incoming TCP port 3306 (MySQL) from ops345sgprivate.
| |
− | * Should be able to log in now. If you get something like this: "ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'10.3.45.11' (using password: YES)" then double-check the master username under RDS/ops345db/Configuration and you can reset the password via Modify (might take a few minutes to propagate).
| |
− | ** See also https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/CHAP_Troubleshooting.html

− | * Most mysql commands need to have a semicolon at the end.
| |
− | * The mysql commandline is nothing like the linux shell. Have to use mysql (or plain SQL) commands.
| |
− | * Out of the box show databases; shows 4 databses, all of which are used internally by mysql, they are not for you to store data.
| |
− | * use mysql; show tables; select * from user; select user from user;
| |
− | * mysql root is not the same as the linux root, but it is an administrator and you should only use it for creating users, databases, and assigning permissions.
| |
− | * Typically you would use something like this: " MariaDB> grant all privileges on DATABASE_NAME.* TO 'USER_NAME'@'%' identified by 'PASSWORD'; " but that won't work on AWS RDS because your root user doesn't have ALL PRIVILEGES, so can't grant them to another user.
| |
− | * Instead create a user first: CREATE USER 'andrewdb'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'andrewdbpassword';
| |
− | * Find what privileges your root has: show grants for 'root';
| |
− | * Give the most important ones to your db user: " GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, INDEX, ALTER, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, LOCK TABLES, EXECUTE ON firstdb.* TO 'andrewdb'@'%'; "
| |
− | * Log out from root
| |
− | * mysql -u andrewdb -pandrewdbpassword -h ops345db.cobdogt5aykb.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com
| |
− | * show databases; - note that the list is shorter.
| |
− | * use firstdb;
| |
− | * show tables;
