How to Install Traccar server on AWS Amazon step by step (Tutorial)

First that nothing, I want to thank all those who made possible this project "Traccar" in particular the Lord Anton Tananaev many thanks.

• the first is that we must acquire a VPS of your choice, in my case I use Ubuntu Server 14

• we need to access our VPS using putty here you have a tutorial on how to do it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8EVfkEGbpE

• Once inside our vps using Putty we proceed with the installation of the Traccar Server

• steps to follow once inside our VPS

# sudo your
# apt - get update
# wget https://github.com/tananaev/traccar/releases/download/v3.1/traccar-linux-64-3.1.zip
(In case you use VPS 64-bit (recommended)
# wget https://github.com/tananaev/traccar/releases/download/v3.1/traccar-linux-32-3.1.zip
(VPS 32-bit)
#unzip traccar-linux-64-3.1. zip
#apkg - configure - a
#apt-get install mysql-server phpmyadmin unzip
#vi /opt/traccar/conf/linux.cfg

<entry key="database.driver"> com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</entry>
<entry key="database.datasource"> com.MySQL.JDBC.jdbc2.optional.MysqlDataSource</entry>
<entry key="database.url"> jdbc:mysql://localhost/anyusername
allowMultiqueries = true & autoreconnect =</entry>
<entry key='database.user'> anyusername</entry>
<entry key='database.password'> youphpmyadminpassword</entry>

Press ESC

: wq

# sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre
# sudo /opt/traccar/bin/traccar start

Now we access the browser with the ip of our server, to open the ports of our vps on AWS, follow these steps;

Finally, in the client installed on the device, we will put our IP and port 5055.

Your topic got into spam folder for some reason. Sorry about that.

can you plase post video tutorial ?
just created a vps instance with ubuntu and logged via putty using key from amazon.

Step 4 is not clear, can you explain one by one..i just copy paste that inside putty ?

can anyone explain please :(

As far as I understand you need to connect to your VPS through SSH and execute given commands.

Anton, you tried in amazon free tier too, which linux used and can you explain by steps ?
now i am able to connect using ssh, next step.

Next step is to download installation package (https://www.traccar.org/download/), unzip it and follow installation instructions.

Installed centos in amazon vps...will start instance and try in ssh.
