ISPConfig is an open-source control panel that allows website owners to manage their servers, websites, email addresses, and more. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the steps to install ISPConfig on Alpine Linux latest.
Before we get started, there are a few things you'll need:
The first step is to update the system to the latest version to ensure that you have all the necessary packages and dependencies.
sudo apk update && sudo apk upgrade
ISPConfig requires certain packages to run correctly. Install them using the following command:
sudo apk add apache2 apache2-utils mariadb mariadb-client mariadb-server postfix postfix-mysql dovecot dovecot-mysql openssl opendkim opendkim-utils php7 php7-apache2 php7-common php7-ctype php7-curl php7-dom php7-gd php7-iconv php7-imap php7-json php7-mbstring php7-mysqlnd php7-opcache php7-openssl php7-pdo php7-pdo_mysql php7-session php7-simplexml php7-sqlite3 php7-xml php7-xmlreader php7-xmlwriter php7-zip php7-mcrypt
You can download ISPConfig from their website, but we'll use the curl command to download and extract the file.
cd /tmp
curl -LO https://github.com/servisys/ispconfig_setup/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip
Now we'll run the ISPConfig installation script.
cd ispconfig_setup-master
sudo ./install.sh
The installation process will take some time. Make sure you read and follow the instructions carefully.
Once the installation is complete, you can access ISPConfig by opening your web browser and typing your server's IP address followed by ":8080". For example:
http://your_server_ip_address:8080/
You'll be prompted to create a username and password. Enter your desired details and click "Save".
That's it! You have successfully installed ISPConfig on Alpine Linux latest.
ISPConfig is a powerful tool that can help you manage your server and websites efficiently. Installing it on Alpine Linux latest is a simple process that can be accomplished even if you have a basic knowledge of the command line interface.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
