Before we begin, ensure that the following requirements are met:

  • You have root access to your FreeBSD Latest server.
  • PHP is installed and running on your server.
  • Apache or Nginx web server is installed and configured on your server.

Step 1: Install Required Packages

We need to install some required packages before installing PhpSysInfo. To install them, run the following command:
