How to Install Sentora on POP! OS

Sentora is a free, open-source web hosting control panel that allows users to manage their website’s databases, emails, domains, and more. In this tutorial, we’ll guide you on how to install Sentora on a POP! OS system.

Requirements

Before we get started, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:

• A system running POP! OS.
• A sudo user account.

Installation Steps

Step 1: Update your System

First, make sure your system is up to date:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

Step 2: Install Required Dependencies

Sentora requires some packages to be installed. Run the following command:

sudo apt install wget nano ca-certificates

Next, add the Sentora repository key to the system:

wget -O - http://repo.sentora.org/apt/yiimp.asc | sudo apt-key add -

Step 3: Add Sentora Repository

Now add the Sentora repository to the system:

echo "deb http://repo.sentora.org/ $(lsb_release -sc) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sentora.list

Step 4: Update the System and Get Sentora

After adding the Sentora repository, update the system and get Sentora:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install sentora-core

Step5: Access the Web Interface

Sentora control panel runs on default port 8080, so you need to allow this port on your firewall. Run the following command to add a firewall rule:

sudo ufw allow 8080

Next, you can access Sentora on your web browser by visiting “http://your-ip-address:8080/”. When you open the page, you will see the Sentora login page. Use “admin” for username and “password” as your password to log in.

That’s it! You have successfully installed Sentora on your POP! OS system.
