::Installation::
1 Run the following command to check if Apache, PHP, MySQL, Bind or Cyrus are pre-installed by the OS:
|
1 |
rpm –qa | egrep ‘(http)|(php)|(cyrus)|(mysql)|(bind-utils)’ |
2 If any are installed they can cause issues with installing cPanel, although I have seen cPanel attempt to import settings. I would rather remove them:
|
1 2 3 4 |
yum remove http* yum remove php* yum remove mysql* yum remove bind–utils* |
3 Open the /home directory
|
1 |
cd /home |
4 Fetch the latest installation file from the cPanel servers
|
1 |
wget –N http://httpupdate.cpanel.net/latest |
::NOTE:: If you want to install the STABLE release, further details found here, as apposed to latest, run the following command:
|
1 |
>echo “CPANEL=stable” > /etc/cpupdate.conf |
5 Run the installation files
|
1 |
sh latest |
Once done, it is time to configure this bad boy!
::Configuration::
1 Touch this file to tell cPanel it is being automatically setup.
|
1 |
touch /etc/.whostmgrft |
2 Configure the 3 main services for the server.
|
1 2 3 |
/scripts/setupmailserver dovecot /scripts/setupnameserver disabled /scripts/setupftpserver pure–ftpd |
3 Replace the following strings [Server’s Main IP], [user@example.com], [Servers FQDN Hostname], [hostname 1], [hostname 2], [hostname 3] with their appropriate values.
::NOTE:: Keep in mind this should be ONE line once you have updated the string below.
