1. Challenge

   Add the File Provisioner(s)

   Please give the lab an extra three minutes before starting the lab activity. After that, log in to the provided Ubuntu Workstation server using the credentials provided.

   Note: There are multiple ways to complete this lab. We'll be using two file provisioner blocks objects. You could alternatively upload the entire files directory in one object and then move all files via script.

   Create an object to move the website files to /var/www/html/bookapp. Place it between the two shell provisioners.

   Add a second file object to move the Apache configuration to /tmp/. Since /etc/apache2 requires elevated privileges, we'll need to move the bookapp.conf file from /tmp/ via shell provisioner.

2. Challenge

   Update the Scripts

   We'll need to update both the initial inline shell provisioner and the scripts provisioner that follows our file objects.

   Update the inline list to create the /var/www/html directory and grant ubuntu temporary ownership of it.

   Then, update the webdeploy.sh script itself to move our bookapp.conf Apache configuration.

3. Challenge

   Test the Build

   Return to the packer.json file and update the variables for access key, secret key, and subnet ID. Save and exit, and then test the build.
