About deploying a web project to Alibaba Cloud Server (5 steps to do it)

1. First log in to the Alibaba Cloud website to register an account, select the server type (I use the cloud server ECS), if you are still a college student, you can enjoy a preferential price, the lowest seems to be 9.9 yuan per month. Then check System Image.

2. After purchasing, log in to the Alibaba Cloud console.

Find your own cloud server instance, click Remote Connection and then enter the remote desktop to have a look.

You can also connect to the remote desktop on the Windows local terminal as shown below.

step:

1. Find Remote Desktop Connection under the Start menu

2. Enter the public IP address

3. Enter the username: Administrator Password: the password for logging into the window system

3. The connection is successful as shown below.

Note: When connecting remotely using the local Windows desktop, you must create a security group in the console. I failed to connect to the remote desktop because I had not created a security group before.

Steps to create a security group: In the Alibaba Cloud console, find Network and Security and click the Security menu below to create a security group. After creating a security group, remember to configure the rules as shown below.

Configure security group rules

*For configuration rules, please refer to Alibaba Cloud's help documentation

4. Configure the server environment. Install jdk and Tomcat.

Steps: We can use the local remote server desktop to copy the jdk and Tomcat installation packages directly from the local computer and paste them into the remote window. Remember to copy, not drag into the remote window, because you cannot drag it in! The installation process will not be explained here one by one.

5. After configuration. Copy the local project's war package to the webapps directory of the Tomcat directory on the server. Then start Tomcat. As shown in the picture.

When accessing the server project from the external network, just change the local address localhost to the public IP address. As shown in the figure
