VPS Guide: Your Go-To for VPS, Ubuntu & Command Line Success

Install Plesk on CentOS

Category: VPS Setup

Deploy Plesk on a CentOS VPS for a premium control panel experience—download the installer with

wget https://autoinstall.plesk.com/plesk-installer

make it executable via

chmod +x plesk-installer

and run

./plesk-installer

Select CentOS 7 or 8 during setup—Plesk supports both integrating MySQL FTP (via proftpd) and SSL management Post-install access it at https://ip:8443—ensure port 8443 is open with

firewall-cmd --add-port=8443/tcp --permanent && firewall-cmd --reload

Plesk’s GUI simplifies SSH key uploads and phpMyAdmin setup reducing CLI reliance Verify installation with

plesk version

expecting something like \"Plesk Obsidian 18 0 56\" Ideal for users needing a polished interface on CentOS though its license costs $10+/month—check hosting providers like Vultr for bundled options
