How to install Ghost CMS on my VPS

Developer help

To be sure, let’s update ghost-cli, and then create a folder for Ghost. Replace <user> with your user ID.

sudo npm install ghost-cli@latest -g
sudo mkdir boringdigital_com
sudo chown <user>:<user> /var/www/boringdigital_com
sudo chmod 775 /var/www/boringdigital_com
cd boringdigital_com

Okay, you’re all set to install Ghost.

ghost install 4.48.1

Note:

  • Blog URL is `https://boringdigital.com
  • MySQL hostname is localhost
  • Use MySQL database name, username, and password from earlier
  • Enter y to set up Nginx, SSL, systemd and start Ghost

You should be up and running once this is completed. Please let me know how this goes.
