How to install CyberPanel
Installing CyberPanel does not take much time and is very easy. First we have to login to our server and then execute the command to update the packages on our server:
apt update -y && apt upgrade -y
After we’ve run the first command to update the packages on our server, it’s time to install the panel itself. To install it, run the command below:
sh <(curl https://cyberpanel.net/install.sh || wget -O - https://cyberpanel.net/install.sh)
You can immediately notice that curl is not installed with us, but there is a wget command that worked after the first curl command failed to complete its action.
The script has started and we will answer a couple of questions and the installation will begin.
After some time, the panel will be installed and we will receive login data, but the panel will notify us that we need to restart the server, and we do this. We write the letter “Y“, press Enter and wait for the server to rise.
To enter the panel, use the link that we have already saved:
https://IP-ADDRESS:8090
After successfully logging in, you will be redirected to the CyberPanel Web GUI as shown below:
How to Install WordPress in CyberPanel
To install WordPress we must first add our domain to the panel.
We add the site by clicking on the Websites button, and then on Create Website:
Enter all the data, and then click on the Create Website button.
We have created a site with such features, but you can add the site data as you wish:
The installation process will take 1-2 minutes if you, like us, indicated that we need SSL.
Next, we are going to install WordPress itself. To do this, you must click on the “Websites” button, then on “List Websites“. After the list of sites has opened, click on “Manage” next to our site, and then go down and install WordPress.
On the new page, specify all the necessary data and click on the “Install now” button.
Let’s wait a couple of moments and you’re done! We have installed WordPress and now we can go to our site, try to log into our account and make sure everything is fine.
