Step 1: Login via SSH to the Server

If you are using a private key to login, use the following command:

bashCopy codessh -i path_to_your_private_key root@yourIpAddress

If you are using a password to login, use the following command:

bashCopy codessh root@yourIpAddress

Step 2: Update the System and Install Required Packages

Before running the installer, update your system and install the necessary packages:

bashCopy codeapt update && apt -y upgrade && apt -y install curl wget sudo

Step 3: Run the Installer with Your Preferred Database Engine

CloudPanel supports multiple database engines. You can choose between MySQL 8.0 and MariaDB 10.11.

For MySQL 8.0, use the following command:

bashCopy codecurl -sS https://installer.cloudpanel.io/ce/v2/install.sh -o install.sh; \
echo "2aefee646f988877a31198e0d84ed30e2ef7a454857b606608a1f0b8eb6ec6b6 install.sh" | \
sha256sum -c && sudo bash install.sh

For MariaDB 10.11, use the same command since the installer will prompt you to choose the database during the installation process.
