Step 1 – Prepare a fresh CentOS 6 VPS. Log in to your server via SSH (use Putty or Terminal) as root.

Step 2 – Now try to stop Apache and MySQL service (just in case if you have them installed and running already).

service httpd stop

service mysql stop

in my case I only have Apache running so I stop it:

Step 3 – Then remove Apache and MySQL service:

yum remove httpd

yum remove mysql

Hit Y to confirm. Screenshot:

Step 4 – Now lets download the installer file:

# for 64-bit use:

wget -O installer-10-1-0-centos-64.sh.x <code>https://github.com/zpanel/zpanelx/releases/download/10.1.0_orig/installer-10-1-0-centos-64.sh.x</code>

# for 32-bit use:

wget -O installer-10-1-0-centos-32.sh.x <code>https://github.com/zpanel/zpanelx/releases/download/10.1.0_orig/installer-10-1-0-centos-32.sh.x</code>

Step 5 – Now you have to make the installer executable:

# For CentOS 64-bit:

chmod +x installer-10-1-0-centos-64.sh.x

# For CentOS 32-bit:

chmod +x installer-10-1-0-centos-32.sh.x

Step 6 – Also install required packages:

yum install ld-linux.so.2 curl

You may need to type Y twice for confirmation:

Step 7 – Finally, issue this command to start installing zPanel:

# for CentOS 64-bit:

./installer-10-1-0-centos-64.sh.x

# for CentOS 32-bit:

./installer-10-1-0-centos-32.sh.x

You have to answer few simple questions. The process should take few minutes, so sit tight and wait till it finishes:

Step 8 – At the end of the process you’ll see all generated passwords displayed, write that down. Also, the process requires restarting your server hence you’ll automatically be logged out from your server.

Step 9 – Now open up your favorite web browser then access your server by typing its ip address. Voila, you’ll now see default zPanel login page. Use zadmin as username and use generated password (step 8 above) to login. Once logged in, you can then change default generated password to something easier to remember but make sure it still uses strong combination.

Step 10 – That’s it. Now you can do some necessary tasks in zPanel control panel area once you logged in. Don’t be worry, all settings inside zPanel are really easy to understood so you’ll be familiar in no time. If you can use cPanel then you should also be able to use zPanel.
