basic steps for a clean installation of cPanel/WHM in the most simplified steps. What I will mention below is applicable to any dedicated server that runs CentOS 4.x/5.x, has minimum 512mb Ram and more than 4GB hard disk available. cPanel is, indeed, a powerful platform, but demanding as well in terms of resources.
The first thing you need to do is login as root and then disable SELinux. Just type /etc/selinux/config and make sure the following values exist in the file:
SELINUX=disabled
SELINUXTYPE=targeted
Lets begin…
STEP 1
cd /home | wget -N http://httpupdate.cpanel.net/latest
The above command will download the installer in your home directory. Now lets run the installer:
STEP 2
sh latest
The Step 2 will initiate the installation process which takes approximately 2 hours, depending on your server’s speed. Once it finishes, you need to active your cPanel/WHM application:
STEP 3
/usr/local/cpanel/cpkeyclt
…and you are done! cPanel/WHM use the port 2086, so to access it just go to http://your-server-ip:2086/
I hope this was helpful to everyone who attempted for the first time to install cPanel/WHM.
