Practical step-by-step instructions for developers and system administrators — installation, maintenance, PHP, projects and troubleshooting.

uAdmin installation

Preparing Ubuntu 24.04 server

Hostname, system update, SSH and resource check before panel installation.

Check resources

Verify RAM, disk and Ubuntu version. Minimum: 1 GB RAM, 20 GB free disk.
```
lsb_release -a
free -h
df -h /
```
Hostname and timezone

Set a meaningful hostname (e.g. vps01 or panel.example.com). Align timezone with server location.
```
sudo hostnamectl set-hostname vps01
sudo timedatectl set-timezone Europe/Zagreb
timedatectl
```
Update packages

Update the system before installing the panel. Taking a VM snapshot in the hypervisor is recommended.
```
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
```
SSH access

Log in as root or a user with sudo. uAdmin installation requires root.
```
ssh root@<server-ip>
```
