KrayinCRM AMI allows you to quickly deploy a CRM system on an AWS EC2 instance using the built-in KrayinCRM auto-installer script (krayincrm_installer.sh).
Just like our other AMIs such as the Magento AMI Installer, it comes pre-packaged with all the necessary components to simplify deployment, including Apache, MySQL, PHP, and SSL.
Prerequisites For KrayinCRM AMI Installer
This AMI comes pre-configured with all required software and the KrayinCRM source code. Before using the installer, ensure the following:
- You must launch the EC2 instance using the KrayinCRM AMI.
- The auto-installer script is located at:
/home/ubuntu/krayincrm_installer.sh - The system pre-installs and configures Apache, PHP (8.3), MySQL, and all required PHP extensions.
- The KrayinCRM source code is available under:
/var/www/laravel-crm/ - DNS Requirement: Your domain should point to the EC2 instance’s public IP using an A record.
Installation Steps
Step 1: Run the Script
Login and run KrayinCRM AMI Installer script
|
1 |
sudo bash krayincrm_installer.sh |
The system will prompt you to enter the following inputs:
- MySQL Credentials
- Database user (e.g. krayin_user)
- Database password
- Database name (e.g. krayin_db)
- Database user (e.g. krayin_user)
The script will automatically create the MySQL database and user if they do not already exist.
Domain Validation
- Enter your domain (e.g. crm.example.com)
- The script checks if the domain correctly points to this instance’s public IP
If the domain is valid, the installation will continue.
If not, you’ll be asked to enter a valid domain again.
Step 2: KrayinCRM Installation
Once domain validation is successful, the KrayinCRM AMI Installer proceeds with the automated installation of KrayinCRM.
- The KrayinCRM setup script runs silently in the background.
- A spinner on the terminal will indicate ongoing progress.
- The installation typically completes within a few minutes.
This automated process ensures a smooth and hands-free setup of your CRM system using the KrayinCRM AMI.
For comparison, you can also check out our Magento AMI auto-installation workflow, which follows a similar approach to streamline deployment.
Step 3: Apache Virtual Host & SSL Path
As part of the KrayinCRM AMI installation, Apache VirtualHost configuration files will be automatically created for both HTTP (port 80) and HTTPS (port 443).
- Apache will be reloaded to apply the new configurations.
- An SSL certificate will be issued and installed automatically using Let’s Encrypt (Certbot).
- Once completed, your KrayinCRM instance will be securely accessible over HTTPS.
Step 4: Credentials File Location
At the end of the KrayinCRM AMI installation, all admin credentials will be saved securely to:
/home/ubuntu/krayincrm_admin_credentials_.txt
This file will include:
- KrayinCRM Admin Username
- KrayinCRM Admin Password
Be sure to download or store this file safely, as it contains sensitive login information required to access your CRM.
