Detailed step-by-step guide to creating an Azure Linux VM with Ubuntu, installing a web server, and deploying a full website using Azure CLI and shell scripting.
git clone https://github.com/atulkamble/AzureWebsiteProject.git
cd AzureWebsiteProject
- Install Azure CLI: If you haven't installed the Azure CLI, follow the instructions here.
- Login to Azure: Open your terminal and run:
az login
First, create a resource group to hold your resources:
RESOURCE_GROUP="MyResourceGroup"
LOCATION="eastus"
az group create --name $RESOURCE_GROUP --location $LOCATION-
Create VM:
VM_NAME="MyUbuntuVM" IMAGE="UbuntuLTS" ADMIN_USERNAME="azureuser" SSH_KEY_PATH="$HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub" az vm create \ --resource-group $RESOURCE_GROUP \ --name $VM_NAME \ --image $IMAGE \ --admin-username $ADMIN_USERNAME \ --ssh-key-value $SSH_KEY_PATH \ --output json \ --verbose
-
Open Port 80 for Web Traffic:
az vm open-port --resource-group $RESOURCE_GROUP --name $VM_NAME --port 80
-
Get Public IP Address:
PUBLIC_IP=$(az vm show --show-details --resource-group $RESOURCE_GROUP --name $VM_NAME --query publicIps -o tsv) -
Create Website Files:
Create a directory for your website files:
mkdir mywebsite cd mywebsiteCreate an
index.htmlfile:<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>My Azure VM Website</title> </head> <body> <h1>Hello from Azure VM!</h1> <p>Welcome to my website hosted on an Azure VM with Ubuntu and Apache.</p> </body> </html>
-
Deploy Website to VM:
Upload your website files to the VM:
scp -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" -r * $ADMIN_USERNAME@$PUBLIC_IP:/tmp/
-
Install Apache and Move Website Files:
Connect to the VM and install Apache, then move the website files to the Apache directory:
ssh -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" $ADMIN_USERNAME@$PUBLIC_IP <<EOF sudo apt update sudo apt install apache2 -y sudo systemctl start apache2 sudo systemctl enable apache2 sudo mv /tmp/* /var/www/html/ EOF
- Open a Web Browser:
- Navigate to the public IP address of your VM:
http://<PUBLIC_IP> - You should see the website content you created in
index.html.
- Navigate to the public IP address of your VM:
-
Install Certbot and Obtain SSL Certificate:
ssh $ADMIN_USERNAME@$PUBLIC_IP <<EOF sudo apt install certbot python3-certbot-apache -y sudo certbot --apache --non-interactive --agree-tos --email your-email@example.com -d your-domain.com EOF
-
Update DNS Records:
- Ensure your domain's DNS records point to your VM's public IP address.
Here’s a complete script that automates the above steps:
#!/bin/bash
# Variables
RESOURCE_GROUP="MyResourceGroup"
LOCATION="eastus"
VM_NAME="MyUbuntuVM"
IMAGE="UbuntuLTS"
ADMIN_USERNAME="azureuser"
SSH_KEY_PATH="$HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub"
DOMAIN="your-domain.com"
EMAIL="your-email@example.com"
# Create Resource Group
az group create --name $RESOURCE_GROUP --location $LOCATION
# Create VM
az vm create \
--resource-group $RESOURCE_GROUP \
--name $VM_NAME \
--image $IMAGE \
--admin-username $ADMIN_USERNAME \
--ssh-key-value $SSH_KEY_PATH \
--output json \
--verbose
# Open Port 80
az vm open-port --resource-group $RESOURCE_GROUP --name $VM_NAME --port 80
# Get Public IP
PUBLIC_IP=$(az vm show --show-details --resource-group $RESOURCE_GROUP --name $VM_NAME --query publicIps -o tsv)
# Create website files
mkdir mywebsite
cd mywebsite
echo '<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>My Azure VM Website</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello from Azure VM!</h1>
<p>Welcome to my website hosted on an Azure VM with Ubuntu and Apache.</p>
</body>
</html>' > index.html
# Deploy website to VM
scp -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" -r * $ADMIN_USERNAME@$PUBLIC_IP:/tmp/
# Install Apache and move website files
ssh -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" $ADMIN_USERNAME@$PUBLIC_IP <<EOF
sudo apt update
sudo apt install apache2 -y
sudo systemctl start apache2
sudo systemctl enable apache2
sudo mv /tmp/* /var/www/html/
EOF
# Optionally secure the website with HTTPS
ssh -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" $ADMIN_USERNAME@$PUBLIC_IP <<EOF
sudo apt install certbot python3-certbot-apache -y
sudo certbot --apache --non-interactive --agree-tos --email $EMAIL -d $DOMAIN
EOF
echo "Website is available at http://$PUBLIC_IP"- Save the script to a file, e.g.,
create-azure-vm-with-website.sh. - Make the script executable:
chmod +x create-azure-vm-with-website.sh
- Run the script:
./create-azure-vm-with-website.sh
By following these steps and running the provided script, you will have an Ubuntu server running on an Azure VM with Apache installed, hosting a complete website. You can further customize the script and your website as needed.
