How to Install zPanel on CentOS 6

About zPanel


zPanel is a php-based free control panel for windows, mac, and linux servers. The program runs on top of an Apache, MySQL, PHP stack on whichever platform is used. zPanel should be installed on a fresh server, as all of the programs that zPanel requires are set up automatically through their installation process.

Step One—Download the Zipped Installer File.

LOG INTO YOUR SERVER AS THE ROOT USER, do not use sudo.
  1. Download the correct installer for your system:
  2. 64 Bit Installer wget http://www.zvps.co.uk/sites/default/files/downloads/centos-6-3/package/installer-x86_64-install.sh.x.tar.gz
    Or
    32 Bit Installer wget http://www.zvps.co.uk/sites/default/files/downloads/centos-6-3/package/installer-x86-install.sh.x.tar.gz
  3. Unzip the tarball


    64 Bit Installer tar -xf installer-x86_64-install.sh.x.tar.gz
    Or
    32 Bit Installer tar -xf installer-x86-install.sh.x.tar.gz
  1. Change the script to be executable
  2. 64 Bit Installer chmod +x installer-x86_64-install.sh.x
    Or
    32 Bit Installer chmod +x installer-x86-install.sh.x
  3. Install pre-required packages:
  4. yum install ld-linux.so.2 curl
  5. Run the ZPanelX installer
  6. 64 Bit Installer ./installer-x86_64-install.sh.x
    Or
    32 Bit Installer ./installer-x86-install.sh.x
  7. Follow the on screen instructions during the installation.
  8. At the end please record down the mysql root password. (you will need this to access mysql via the root user and also for running future updates to zpanel) All Passwords are stored in /root/passwords.txt
Once the zPanel installation completes, the server will reboot.

Step Two—Access Your zPanel Installation

After your server reboots, you can access zPanel by going to your domain or IP address in the browser.

Your login credentials are:
username: zadmin
password: your password

As soon as you log in, be sure that you change your password. You can do this by clicking on the key in the right hand “Account Information” section and inputting a new password. All Passwords are stored in /root/passwords.txt
