Installation

Install ArcPanel on a fresh server.

Pick the services you want below and copy the command. The installer sets up everything else and prints your login when it is done.

A fresh OS

Debian 12 / 13 or Ubuntu 22.04 / 24.04 / 26.04 LTS. There is no in-place upgrade from HestiaCP or ArcPanel 1.x.

amd64 or arm64

64-bit only. KVM or LXC virtualization is recommended.

Root access

Log in over SSH as root, or as a user that can run sudo.

A hostname

A fully qualified name, such as panel.example.com, pointing at the server.

1 · Download the installer

Log in to your server, for example ssh root@your.server, then download the script:

wget https://arcpanel.top/install.sh

2 · Run it with your options

Check you are root, adjust the options below, then run:

sudo bash install.sh

The installer asks for the admin password. Do not put passwords on the command line: they stay in your shell history.

Configure options

Defaults suit most web hosting servers. Only changes from the default are added to the command.

Web server
FTP and DNS
Databases
Mail
Security
System

3 · Log in

When the installer finishes, open https://your.server:8083 and sign in with the account it printed. The details are also emailed to the admin address.
