Like cPanel and WHM which you regularly use it, Centos Web Panel (CWP) is used to manage everything on the server through using user interface without using command lines which can make you bored. Unlike virtualmin or Koloxo, the CWP has installed completely then you can run a WordPress site in a normal way without any further configuration.

CentOS web panel features:

- Preset different PHP versions, you can change the version in 1 click. PHP has also been optimized to increase performance by 20%.
- MySQL and phpMyAdmin preinstalled have been confidential.
- Preset Varnish cache, just turn up and running only. Used to accelerate, reducing server load (W3 Total Cache served with the great).
- Data Backup & Restore.
- Support SuPHP and Suexec for better security. Ie when installing the WordPress plugin you do not need to manually CHMOD, especially CHMOD 777.
- SSL Support Manager.
- Feature information of the server hardware.
- View your workflow server, CPU utilization information is extremely detailed.
- Web Mail and Exim preset.
- CFS FireWall preset for security.
- File Manager supports.
- Support bulletin board to remind tweak security, for example, you are to the SSH port is 22, it will make this port is not secure and guide you how to fix it.
- Less bugs, fast support forum.
- And other tiny features.

So you see, with such a control panel, you have completely replaced cPanelX completely free and very good use because their current use of the site visitors on the first server.

Although many features but CWP quite light, I was trying to measure on a VPS with 1GB of RAM, it only occupies 115MB and this includes the following software operating systems.

How to install

To install, you need a VPS / Dedicated Server spotless new following with CentOS 6.4 operating system or higher and 512MB of RAM or more. You can buy cheap and good from VPS https://forumweb.hosting/131-vps-hosting-offers because I also tried some hosting companies here and did not have a problem.

Start the installation, you just type this command line in turn 4 is finished:

Code:
cd /usr/local/src
yum install wget unzip -y
wget http://dl1.centos-webpanel.com/files/cwp-latest.sh
sh cwp-latest.sh
Wait for 15 minutes it will reach the installation is complete and MySQL Root Password display, remember to save this for later you are on the MySQL root account, then have that user.

Once installed, the screen will display the login address and you will be logged on at the address is:

Code:
URL: http://Your_IP:2030
User: admin
Password: root password of the server
And this is the interface of administration page:

Upgrading MySQL to 5.5

Default CWP is using MySQL 5.1, so if you previously used the website MySQL 5.5 will surely error occurred while importing data. So, update MySQL to 5.5 when installed just CWP.

To install, you first stop the MySQL running away.

Code:
service mysqld stop
Then load this package:

Code:
rpm -Uvh https://mirror.webtatic.com/yum/el6/latest.rpm
Code:
Then run 2 commands:
Code:
yum install mysql.`uname -i` yum-plugin-replace
yum replace mysql --replace-with mysql55w
Restart your MYSQL

Code:
service mysqld start
If you used Virtualmin, VestaCP, Kloxo then I would like to hear your personal opinion which one is best for you?

For me, CWP is a good hosting panel to install on your VPS.

Just my 0.2 cents!

Thanks for this clean tutorial. I have tested CWP few days ago but I'm waiting for a final version (and another template ^^) to work with it in production.
In the free control panels, after CWP, I will choose VestaCP for his clean interface and the hosting possibilities.
But it's always hard to find the perfect panel for free.

I will look for this settings tonight as I have to setup a VPS with CWP for a customer. I will come back to you if I found how to do ^^
I also used this hosting panel last month but I got the same problem like MooseLucifer, could not find details to configure email for email client program like outlook or gmail.

It lacks of file manager on web.
