# Install Jenkins on AWS EC2
2+
Jenkins is a self-contained Java-based program, ready to run out-of-the-box, with packages for Windows, Mac OS X and other Unix-like operating systems. As an extensible automation server, Jenkins can be used as a simple CI server or turned into the continuous delivery hub for any project.

### Prerequisites
7+
1. EC2 RHEL 7.x Instance [Get help here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDtS6BzJo3A)
8+
- With Internet Access
9+
- Security Group with Port `8080` open for internet
10+
1. Java v1.8.x
11+
12+
## Install Java
13+
We will be using open java for our demo, Get latest version from http://openjdk.java.net/install/
14+
```sh
15+
yum install java-1.8*
16+
#yum -y install java-1.8.0-openjdk
17+
```
18+
19+
### Confirm Java Version
20+
Lets install java and set the java home
21+
```sh
22+
java -version
23+
find /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8* | head -n 3
24+
#JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.191.b12-1.el7_6.x86_64
25+
export JAVA_HOME
26+
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME
27+
# To set it permanently update your .bash_profile
28+
source ~/.bash_profile
29+
```
30+
_The output should be something like this,_
31+
```
32+
[root@~]# java -version
33+
openjdk version "1.8.0_151"
34+
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_151-b12)

36+
```
37+
38+
## Install Jenkins
39+
You can install jenkins using the rpm or by setting up the repo. We will setup the repo so that we can update it easily in future.
40+
Get latest version of jenkins from https://pkg.jenkins.io/redhat-stable/
41+
```sh
42+
yum -y install wget
43+
wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/jenkins.repo https://pkg.jenkins.io/redhat-stable/jenkins.repo
44+
rpm --import https://pkg.jenkins.io/redhat-stable/jenkins.io.key
45+
yum -y install jenkins
46+
```

48+
### Start Jenkins

```sh
50+
# Start jenkins service
51+
systemctl start jenkins

# Setup Jenkins to start at boot,
54+
systemctl enable jenkins
55+
```
