Software Requirements
You must have a clean/fresh installation of supported operating systems:
- CentOS 7 MINIMAL is recommended version. (RECOMMENDED STABLE)
- CWP-CentOS 8 MINIMAL or BOOT Stream-Delayed. (RECOMMENDED LATEST)
- CentOS 8 Stream MINIMAL or BOOT
- Rocky Linux 8 MINIMAL or BOOT
- Alma Linux 8 MINIMAL or BOOT
- Oracle Linux 7 & 8 MINIMAL or BOOT
First, prepare the server for CentOS Web Panel
yum -y install wget yum -y update reboot
Set Hostname
After the reboot is finished you would need a hostname for the server you are installing CWP on.
To do that log into your server and type in the following:
hostname srv.example.com
As you have noticed the hostname is recommended to be a subdomain rather than the main domain.
Download CentOS Web Panel
For CentOS 6 :
cd /usr/local/src wget http://centos-webpanel.com/cwp-latest sh cwp-latest
For CentOS 7 :
cd /usr/local/src wget http://centos-webpanel.com/cwp-el7-latest sh cwp-el7-latest
After the screen has stopped moving which takes around 30-40 minutes you need to reboot your server to complete the installation:
reboot
That is it now you have CentOS Web Panel on your Server.
To Log into your control panel as root use the following link:
http://serverIP:2030
Username: root
Password: your root password.
Now you need to Set up name server
DNS Functions > Edit Nameserver IP
Set one hosting package so it is available to be assigned
Go to package>add package>fill in the info and limits of the package
Set up root email
Got to CWP settings> Edit Settings>write the root email for the CWP
