While we have taken every effort to make the installation process and the control panel interface as friendly as possible (even for new users), it is assumed that you will have some prior knowledge and understanding in the basics how to set up a Linux server before continuing.
To start the installation, you will need to be logged in as root or a user with super-user privileges. You can perform the installation either directly from the command line console or remotely via SSH:
Download the installation script for the latest release:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hestiacp/hestiacp/release/install/hst-install.sh
If the download fails due to an SSL validation error, please be sure you've installed the ca-certificate package on your system - you can do this with the following command:
apt-get update && apt-get install ca-certificates
To begin the installation process, simply run the script and follow the on-screen prompts:
bash hst-install.sh
You will receive a welcome email at the address specified during installation (if applicable) and on-screen instructions after the installation is completed to log in and access your server.
You may specify a number of various flags during installation to only install the features in which you need. To view a list of available options, run:
bash hst-install.sh -h
Alternatively, @gabizz has made available a command-line script generator at https://gabizz.github.io/hestiacp-scriptline-generator/ which allows you to easily generate the installation command via GUI.
Automatic Updates are enabled by default on new installations of Hestia Control Panel and can be managed from Server Settings > Updates. To manually check for and install available updates, use the apt package manager:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
