Installation and Configuration of FastPanel on Linux based Operating Systems

FastPanel is a powerful web hosting control panel that simplifies server management. In this guide, we'll walk you through the installation process on various operating systems.

Step 1: Download the FastPanel Script

wget http://repo.fastpanel.direct/install_fastpanel.sh
Step 2: Run the Script
sudo bash install_fastpanel.sh

The script will perform pre-installation checks and install necessary components, including MySQL, web services (nginx, apache, php), ftp service (proftpd), and mail services (exim, dovecot). Additionally, it installs recommended software like Roundcube and phpMyAdmin.

Step 3: Configuration

FastPanel uses port 8888 on your server. Allow access to this port through your operating system's firewall. Examples are provided for different OS.

Example for Ubuntu/Debian:

sudo ufw allow 8888

Example for CentOS:

sudo firewall-cmd --add-port=8888/tcp --permanent sudo firewall-cmd --reload

Check the current rules to ensure the port is allowed.

Example for Ubuntu/Debian:

sudo ufw status

Example for CentOS:

sudo firewall-cmd --list-all

Visit your server's IP or linked domain name on port 8888.

http://SERVER_IP:8888 OR http://example.com:8888

You'll be prompted to enter your email address to receive a free license key for your new server. After approval, revisit your server IP, enter the admin username and password to accept the license agreement.
