Command to install Cpanel on digital ocean

To install cPanel/WHM on a DigitalOcean droplet running a supported Linux distribution (usually CentOS, AlmaLinux, or Rocky Linux), follow these steps. Keep in mind that cPanel is a paid product, and you’ll need a valid license.

Step-by-Step Installation:

1. Log in to your DigitalOcean Droplet: Use SSH to access your droplet.
   bash

   Copy code

   ssh root@your_droplet_ip

2. Update your system: Ensure your system is up to date before installation.
   bash

   Copy code

   yum update -y

3. Set the hostname: Set a valid hostname for your server. Replace yourdomain.com with your actual domain.
   bash

   Copy code

   hostnamectl set-hostname server.yourdomain.com

4. Disable Network Manager (Optional for CentOS 7 or earlier): cPanel requires NetworkManager to be disabled on CentOS systems.
   bash

   Copy code

   systemctl stop NetworkManager
systemctl disable NetworkManager

5. Install Perl: cPanel requires Perl to be installed on the server.
   bash

   Copy code

   yum install perl -y

6. Download and install cPanel: Download and run the cPanel installer script.
   bash

   Copy code

   cd /home
curl -o latest -L https://securedownloads.cpanel.net/latest
sh latest

7. Wait for the installation to complete: The installation process can take 30-60 minutes depending on the server. The script will handle the installation of all necessary components.
8. Access cPanel/WHM: Once installed, you can access WHM (the admin side of cPanel) through your browser. Use the following URL:
   arduino

   Copy code

   https://your_droplet_ip:2087


   Log in with the root user and your root password.

Post-Installation:

• After logging into WHM for the first time, you’ll go through the initial setup wizard.
• You’ll also need to purchase a cPanel license if you don’t already have one.

Note:

Make sure your droplet meets the minimum requirements for cPanel, and ensure ports 2083, 2087, and 2086 are open in your firewall for cPanel/WHM access.
