Install the CodeDeploy agent for Amazon Linux or RHEL
Sign in to the instance, and run the following commands, one at a time. Running the
first command, sudo yum install, first is considered best practice when using
yum to install packages, but you can skip it if you do not wish to update
all of your packages.
In the fourth command, /home/ec2-user represents the default user name
for an Amazon Linux or RHEL Amazon EC2 instance. If your instance was created using
a custom AMI,
the AMI owner might have specified a different default user name.
sudo yum update
sudo yum install ruby
sudo yum install wget
cd /home/ec2-user
wget https://bucket-name.s3.region-identifier.amazonaws.com/latest/install
bucket-name is the name of the Amazon S3
bucket that contains the CodeDeploy Resource Kit files for your region. region-identifier is the identifier for
your region. For example, for the
US East (Ohio) Region, replace bucket-name with
aws-codedeploy-us-east-2 and replace region-identifier with
us-east-2. For a list of bucket names and region identifiers, see Resource kit bucket names by Region.
chmod +x ./install
