When installing wordpress I get this error when adding a semi colon at the end CREATE DATABASE WP1; ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ': Is there any faster or less complicated way to install WP. I am used to cpanel 1-click install

With "faster or less complicated" you end up sacrificing performance. If that's what you want, check out One-Click Install WordPress on Ubuntu 12.10 with DigitalOcean.

If performance matters to you, check out a href="https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-wordpress-nginx-php-and-varnish-on-ubuntu-12-04">How To Install Wordpress, Nginx, PHP, and Varnish on Ubuntu 12.04.

How To Install Wordpress, Nginx, PHP, and Varnish on Ubuntu 12.04

Varnish is an HTTP accelerator and a useful tool for speeding up a server, especially during a times when there is high traffic to a site. It works by redirecting visitors to static pages whenever possible and only drawing on the server itself if there is a need for an active process. This tutorial covers installing wordpress on a LEMP stack (with nginx instead of apache), and then installing varnish.
