Build CyberPanel¶

Follow this guide to build a CyberPanel + OpenLiteSpeed image/template/snapshot.

Build Process¶

Launch a Server¶

Choose the Long Term Support version for the base image, e.g. Ubuntu 18.04.

Select a basic plan from the cloud platform.

Install CyberPanel¶

You can use a single command to install CyberPanel (with OpenLiteSpeed) easily. It is totally free and does not requires any kind of license.

sh <(curl https://cyberpanel.net/install.sh || wget -O - https://cyberpanel.net/install.sh)

This installation may take around 8-12 minutes to finish.

Set up Welcome Banner¶

This is just a basic SSH console welcome message template. Update the content if you need to. This banner will do the following:

• Check the public IP address

• Show the CyberPanel URL

• Display how to get panel login access

• Display how to get SQL access

• Check if the CyberPanel version is up to date.

For Ubuntu/Debian:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/litespeedtech/ls-cloud-image/master/Banner/cyberpanel \
-o /etc/update-motd.d/99-one-click

chmod +x /etc/update-motd.d/99-one-click

For CentOS:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/litespeedtech/ls-cloud-image/master/Banner/cyberpanel \
-o /etc/profile.d/99-one-click.sh

chmod +x /etc/update-motd.d/99-one-click.sh

systemctl restart sshd

Please verify the MYIP method captures the right IP for you

Install Upgrade Script¶

This script provides the system autoupdate function.

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/litespeedtech/ls-cloud-image/master/Setup/domainsetup.sh \
-o /opt/domainsetup.sh

chmod +x /opt/domainsetup.sh

Install Launch script¶

This script will do the following:

• Regenerate SSL Certificate

• Regenerate Django secret key

• Regenerate phpMyAdmin key

• Regenerate SQL password

• Regenerate CyberPanel password

• Regenerate PowerDNS password

• Regenerate pure-ftp password

• Clean up passwords

• Clean up SSH keys

• Clean up logs

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/litespeedtech/ls-cloud-image/master/Cloud-init/launch.sh \
-o /opt/launch.sh 

chmod +x /opt/launch.sh 

/opt/launch.sh

This step may clean up all SSH access methods, which means once you exit the server, you will not be able to SSH back

Clean History Log¶

history -c

Remove Data (Optional)¶

Remove CyberPanel dummy data:

rm -f /home/cyberpanel.sh
rm -rf /home/install*
rm -rf /usr/local/CyberCP/.idea/
rm -f /etc/profile.d/cyberpanel.sh

To make the banner cleaner, you can remove some existing messages from it:

rm -f /etc/update-motd.d/00-header
rm -f /etc/update-motd.d/10-help-text
rm -f /etc/update-motd.d/50-landscape-sysinfo
rm -f /etc/update-motd.d/51-cloudguest

Test (Optional)¶

There are many functions on the CyberPanel image. You can try some basic tests to make sure the important functions are working fine. For example:

• Build an image via the cloud platform's build function

• Launch a new server with same image you just built

• Check if both the .db_password and .litespeed_password files generated on root or the /home/ubuntu folder correctly

• Visit CyberPanel and try to access with the password found in the .litespeed_password file

• Create a domain and WordPress site

• Try PHP parameter

• Try to access phpMyAdmin

• Try Mail Service

• Try PowerDNS

• Try FTP Service

• Try Docker Service

• Try Security Service

• Try to switch OpenLiteSpeed to LiteSpeed Web Server

Maintenance¶

1. Launch the server from the snapshot/template/image
2. Upgrade system packages,
   • For Ubuntu:

     apt update
     apt -y upgrade
     apt -y dist-upgrade
     apt autoremove -y
     

   • For CentOS:

     yum update -y
     

3. Upgrade CyberPanel

   cd
   rm -f upgrade.py
   wget http://cyberpanel.net/upgrade.py
   python upgrade.py
   

4. Install Launch script
5. Clean history log
6. Test (Optional)
