How to install Jenkins on Amazon AWS EC2 Linux | 8 Steps

Hi, I am Raghav & today we will learn:
1. How to download and install Jenkins on aws ec2 linux
2. How to access Jenkins from browser
3. How to start and stop Jenkins
4. How to start Jenkins on different port
5. How to uninstall Jenkins

Step 1 : Connect to your Linux machine
SetUp JAVA PATH
Set up Custom TCP port: 8080 in AWS Security Groups

Step 2: Update Packages
sudo yum update

Step 3 : Check Java is installed. If not install java
java -version
sudo yum install java-1.8.0

To check and select one out of multiple java versions available
sudo /usr/sbin/alternatives --config java

Step 4 : Download latest Jenkins code package

Step 5 : Import a key file from Jenkins-CI to enable installation from the package

Step 6 : Install Jenkins
sudo yum install jenkins

Step 7 : Start jenkins
sudo service jenkins start

Step 8 : Access Jenkins server using the public DNS of your ec2 on port 8080
http://{ec2-public-dns}:8080

Note : Here you might have to allow port 8080 in your security group settings
