DirectAdmin(DA) is a Commercial Hosting Control Panel and is used for selling shared and reseller hosting accounts.

We are going to install DirectAdmin on CentOS 7.


What are the requirements?
- Fresh CentOS 7, installed on your VPS/Server.


How to install DirectAdmin?

Step 1:
  The first step is to login to your root account using SSH or any other way and enter these commands:

Then enter these 3 commands:

wget http://www.directadmin.com/setup.sh
chmod 755 setup.sh
./setup.sh

DirectAdmin will ask you to install the required pre-install packages, Type €œY€ and then press Enter.


Step 2:  Now, it will ask you to enter your Client ID of DirectAdmin, your DA license ID and then you will need to type in your hostname, for example server1.example.com

Once you will enter this, it will ask you for confirmation. If you  entered the correct details, press €œY€. Then type in €œY€ two more times.


If you want to install the default settings of Apache and PHP then press €œY€.

Once the installation starts, it may take from 20 to 30 minutes to complete.


Step 3:  After the installation is complete, you can access your admin control panel directly via http:// ip-address:2222

Encode and I had a very useful discussion about Wordpress and related issues at no cost to myself. He gave me some very helpful information and answered the questions I had.

I learnt quite a lot! Thank you.

I am very excited to work again with Neil. His attention to detail is second to none. I have seen his work in action in the past and he is great. I love his calm approach and his patient guidance to non-tech people like me. I would highly highly reccommend him!

Neil is the best! He has sorted out all our business emails and everything runs a great deal better now. Website issues are now a thing of the past as Neil has introduced a maintenance programme to ensure the site is always working optimally and any content changes are actioned pretty much immediately.

Highly recommended!!

'Encode' provided my hosting and domain transfers. They were able to deal with the technicalities of the transfer in a particularly speedy manner, taking all the worry of the transfer, domain issues DNS and nameserver headaches as well as the migration. A couple of emails, and phone call meant it was done smoothly, swiftly and efficiently. All I can say is I'm really please they were recommended to me. Thank you
