Before we begin writing our code, we'll want to check the Forge for relevant supported or open source modules. WordPress requires an SQL server and a web host, which we'll provide via Apache HTTPD. Before we begin, we'll want to install the following modules from the Forge:

• puppetlabs-mysql
• puppetlabs-apache
• hunner-wordpress

[root@pe-puppet-master myapp]# puppet module install puppetlabs-mysql
