cPanel and WHM requirements
Before starting the installation of cPanel/WHM using RealCloud Docker Hub you may want to understand the prerequisites on RealCloud. Have a look on them here:
- A cPanel/WHM Docker Image [We are using Jeleatic cPanel for this example, you may choose any image/version of your choice.]
- A Public IP [Public IP can be added anytime from RealCloud Dashboard, Available to fully active accounts only]
Hardware Requirements:
- A compatible operating system version of CentOS, CloudLinux or RHEL.
- Minimum 1 GB RAM
- Minimum 10 GB Disk Space
Other Key Considerations:
- cPanel/WHM is a commercial software designed to manage website hosting, it can only be licensed on a Public Static IP Address
- cPanel/WHM should always be installed on a clean server. No existing installations should be there.
- Log in as "root" user on server to perform all required actions.
Let's get started with a quick cPanel/WHM deployment on RealCloud. Here is how:
- Select "New Environment" or "Create New Environment" from RealCloud Dashboard.
- Select "Docker" at the top in the next step.
- Select "Select Image".
- In the Docker Hub search "jelasticdocker/cpanel"
- Choose "jelasticdocker/cpanel" image and click "Next".
- Attach Public IPs from RealCloud Dashboard.
- Select/Click "Create".
Hurrah!!! Your cPanel/WHM on RealCloud deployment is done.
You'll receive the cPanel/WHM "root" credentials in your mailbox within next minutes.
