How to install VestaCP on a VPS or Dedicated Server

Vesta Control Panel (VestaCP) is an open-source web hosting control panel. It is similar to cPanel and Plesk, but it is free to use. VestaCP is a popular choice for web hosting providers because it is easy to use and has a wide range of features.

To install VestaCP, you will need a virtual or dedicated server. We recommend using a fresh installation of Linux for the best results. VestaCP is compatible with CentOS, Debian, and Ubuntu.

Once you have your server set up, you can begin the installation process. We will assume that you are using a fresh installation of CentOS 7 for this tutorial.

1. First, you will need to install some dependencies. Run the following commands:

yum install epel-release yum groupinstall "Development Tools"

2. Next, you will need to download the VestaCP installation script. You can do this with the following command:

curl -O http://vestacp.com/pub/vst-install.sh

3. Now, you will need to make the script executable. You can do this with the following command:

chmod +x vst-install.sh

4. Finally, you can run the script to install VestaCP. We recommend using the '--nginx' flag to install the Nginx web server. You can do this with the following command:

./vst-install.sh --nginx

The installation process will take a few minutes to complete. Once it is finished, you will be able to access the VestaCP web interface by going to http://your-server-ip:8083 in your web browser. The default username and password are 'admin'. We hope this tutorial has helped you to learn how to install VestaCP on your server.
