    How to Install?

    Prerequisites :

    • A Private Server maybe a VPS
    • Internet Connection on VPS
    • Freshly Installed Ubuntu 14.04

    Installation :

    We are using 1GB VPS Package from Godaddy which is completely self managed with no CPanel or anything, just a freshly install Operating Server, so we are going to install Vesta Control Panel Using Putty and SSH access, if you are on Ubuntu with GUI then you can also use these commands with Terminal.

    Step 1 : Make sure that you have a freshly install Ubuntu 14.04 with root Access.

    Step 2 : If you are also doing it on a VPS same as me then you need to download and Open Putty (Putty is a SSH Client), you can download putty from the below link, and if you are on Ubuntu where you can use Terminal then skip these steps and head directly to Step 7.

    Step 3 : Now head over to your Server Control Panel and note down you IP Address.
