Preparation

Before starting the installation, make sure that your server meets the system requirements.

Ispmanager installation 

1. Connect to the server via SSH with the superuser permissions.

2. Download the installation script:

   wget https://download.ispmanager.com/install.eu.sh -O install.eu.sh

   If wget is not installed

   Install it using one of the commands: 

   For Debian-based systems

   apt install wget

   For RH-based systems

   yum install wget

3. Run the script:

   sh install.eu.sh

   If you want to activate the ispmanager license during the installation or skip the step-by-step software selection, use the installation parameters.
