Installing uAdmin on Ubuntu 24.04

Step-by-step panel installation on a fresh Ubuntu 24.04 VM — from SSH access to first login.

  1. Prepare the server

    Check system requirements (Ubuntu 24.04, min. 1 GB RAM, 20 GB disk). Update packages, set hostname and verify ports 22 and 10001.

    sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
    hostnamectl
    sudo ufw status
  2. Install the panel

    Run the official install script as root. Installation takes a few minutes.

    curl -fsSL https://enc-it.hr/uadmin/install-uadmin-from-release.sh | sudo bash
  3. First start

    Open the panel in your browser on port 10001. Default login: admin@localhost / changeme — change the password immediately.

    https://<hostname>:10001
    
    E-mail:   admin@localhost
    Password: changeme
    Tip

    MariaDB and other passwords are in /home/uadmin/INSTALL-PASSWORDS.txt and /root/uadmin-INSTALL-PASSWORDS.txt.

  4. Stack wizard

    In the panel: Web stack → Install. Select Apache and/or Nginx, PHP-FPM versions, MariaDB, Certbot, Adminer, vsftpd and UFW before creating projects.

  5. Basic security

    Change the admin password, enable UFW (ports 22, 80, 443, 10001), configure panel SSL and take a VM snapshot before production.
