# PHP APM with AWS Elastic Beanstalk

Instructions on how to install the Retrace Linux Agent and PHP APM on [AWS Elastic Beanstalk](https://aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk).

### Installing Stackify Linux Agent

1. Create a new file named **stackify.config** in your application’s **.ebextensions** folder. [Learn More about .ebextensions](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/ebextensions.html).
2. Add the following to your **stackify.config** file: Replace `[INSERT ACTIVATION KEY]` with your activation key value. Optionally you can include the device name by replacing the `[aliasname]` with the desired device alias. You can find your activation key under [Settings: Account](https://s1.stackify.com/Manage/AccountInfo).

```yaml
sources:
  /home/ec2-user: https://s1.stackify.com/Account/AgentDownload/Linux
    
commands:
  01:
    command: sudo ./agent-install.sh --key [INSERT ACTIVATION KEY] --environment "Production" --devicealias [aliasname]
    cwd: /home/ec2-user/stackify-agent-install-32bit

files:
  "/etc/php.d/99stackify.ini" :

    content: |
      extension=stackify.so
      stackify.application_name=PHP Elastic Beanstalk Application

Note: **stackify.application_name** and **stackify.environment_name** fields can be adjusted per the name and environment of your application
