Once you have the path, navigate to that parent directory and use the rm command to delete the folder. For example, if it's in /opt:

sudo rm -rf /opt/jdk-22

Step 3: Clean Up Environment Variables

You likely set up JAVA_HOME in your profile files. You need to remove these lines to avoid system errors. Open your profile file (like /etc/profile or ~/.bashrc):

sudo nano /etc/profile

Find the lines referencing JDK 22, delete them, save the file, and then reload the variables:

source /etc/profile

Step 4: Update the Alternatives System

If you manually added JDK 22 to the Linux alternatives system, remove the entries for java and javac using:

sudo update-alternatives --remove "java" "/opt/jdk-22/bin/java"
sudo update-alternatives --remove "javac" "/opt/jdk-22/bin/javac"

Step 5: Verify the Uninstallation

Finally, confirm that JDK 22 is gone by checking the version:

java -version

If it was your only Java version, you will see a "command not found" error, confirming a successful removal!

Installing Apache Tomcat 9 on Amazon EC2 Linux

Setting up a web server on the cloud is a fundamental skill for any modern developer. Apache Tomcat 9 is a reliable, powerful choice for hosting your Java applications. In this guide, we will walk through the exact steps to get Tomcat running on an Amazon EC2 Linux instance, even if you are just starting your cloud journey.

Step 1: Prepare Your EC2 Instance

First, log in to your Amazon EC2 instance using SSH. Ensure your system is up to date and that you have a Java Development Kit (JDK) installed, as Tomcat requires Java to run. Without Java, the server simply won't start!

Step 2: Download the Tomcat 9 Package

Navigate to the official Apache Tomcat website to find the download link for the latest version of Tomcat 9. Use the wget command in your Linux terminal to download the tarball directly to your server. This ensures you are getting the original, unmodified files.

Step 3: Extract and Set Permissions

Once the download is complete, use the tar -xvf command to extract the files. It's common practice to move the extracted folder to /opt/tomcat. Make sure to give your user permission to execute the scripts in the bin folder.

Step 4: Configure AWS Security Groups

By default, AWS blocks traffic on the ports Tomcat uses. You must go to the AWS Management Console and add an Inbound Rule to your Security Group to allow traffic on Port 8080. This is what allows you to access the server from your browser.

Step 5: Start Your Server

Navigate to the Tomcat bin directory and run ./startup.sh. To verify it's working, open your web browser and enter your EC2 instance's public IP address followed by :8080. If you see the Tomcat welcome page, you have succeeded!

Introduction

MariaDB is one of the most popular open-source relational databases. In this guide, we will walk through the entire process of installing MariaDB on an Amazon EC2 Linux instance and show you how to set up a secure root password.

Step 1: Install MariaDB

First, connect to your EC2 instance via SSH. To check for available MariaDB packages and install the server, run these commands:

# Check available packages
sudo yum list mariadb*

# Install MariaDB Server
sudo yum install mariadb-server

Step 2: Start and Enable the Service

After installation, you need to start the MariaDB service and enable it so that it starts automatically when the server boots up.

# Start MariaDB
sudo systemctl start mariadb

# Enable MariaDB to start on boot
sudo systemctl enable mariadb

Step 3: Setting the Root Password

By default, MariaDB installs without a root password. To set a new password, follow these specialized steps:

  1. Stop the service: sudo systemctl stop mariadb
  2. Start in safe mode: sudo mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables &
  3. Log in without a password: mysql -u root
  4. Update the password:
    UPDATE mysql.user SET password=PASSWORD('your_new_password') WHERE User='root';
    FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
    exit;

Step 4: Verify the Installation

Restart the service normally and log in using your new password:

# Log in with password
mysql -u root -p

# Once logged in, show databases
SHOW DATABASES;

Conclusion

You have successfully installed MariaDB on your AWS EC2 instance! You now have a robust database ready to power your applications. Stay tuned for more tutorials on how to connect your Java applications to this database.
