Description:
Hello ,
I was using older version of PHP(5.*), I wanted to use the latest version so I installed the latest version of LAMP using steps:
1. Stopped the server.
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop

2.Took Backup of the application, compressed and downloaded:
sudo mv /opt/bitnami/ /opt/bitnami.bak
zip –r backup.zip /opt/bitnami.bak

Downloaded the latest Lamp installer:
wget https://bitnami.com/redirect/to/770107/bitnami-lampstack-7.4.7-0-linux-x64-installer.run
4.Installed the Lamp on the instancer:
sudo ./bitnami-lampstack-7.4.7-0-linux-x64-installer.run --prefix /opt/bitnami

it worked fine till here, Now applying the configuration from old application ie changing root for application which was "/opt/bitnami/apps/joomla/htdocs" which is currently "/opt/bitnami/apache2/htdocs", to do that I followed the process from the link:

but when I restart, it give me errors:

/opt/bitnami/config/monit/conf.d/mysql.conf:2: Service name conflict, mysql already defined '"/opt/bitnami/mysql/data/mysqld.pid"'
/etc/monit/conf.d/apache.conf:2: Service name conflict, apache already defined '"/opt/bitnami/apache2/logs/httpd.pid"'
/etc/monit/monitrc:290: Include failed -- Success '/etc/monit/conf-enabled/*'

Also my SSL stopped working after installing new lamp.

Any body please help me to resolve these errors.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @euphoriatek2010,

It seems there is a conflict between the old version of monit we included in our stacks and the new one we are including in the solutions. You can try to stop and disable the old version by running these commands

sudo service monit stop
sudo service monit disable
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart

However, I suggest you launch a fresh Bitnami LAMP 7.4.8 instance in AWS and migrate your data from the old server to the new one.

https://bitnami.com/stack/lamp/cloud/aws/amis
https://docs.bitnami.com/aws/get-started-console/

This guide will help you access the information and move it from one server to the other one

Happy to help!

Hello jota,
Thanks for reply,
When I run : sudo service monit disable

I get this message:

Usage: /etc/init.d/monit {start|stop|reload|restart|force-reload|syntax|status}

Seems like older version of monit does't have disable option so trying the second thing you suggested.
