Answer 1

1) first download some SSH client, I recommend Putty (http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html). Choose the version that suits your operating system.

2) login to your VPS via SSH. In putty under "hostname your IP adress" put your VPS's IP or a domain name you have configured for that server. Check that the port number on the right to the hostname is 22. Click OPEN button in the bottom.

3) after providing your root username/password combo. follow all the steps from this page: http://www.servermom.org/install-ajaxplorer-file-manager-module-zpanel-cp/951/

Step 1 – Login to your server as root. I assume you knew how to do this.

Step 2 – Then add additional repo for zPanel:

shell> zppy repo add zppy.alineofcode.co.uk

Step 3 – Now issue this command to update the repo:

shell> zppy update

Step 4 – Finally, here it is the main command to download and install Ajaxplorer on your server:

shell> zppy install ajaxplorer

Step 5 – Open up your favorite web browser, visit the login page of your zPanel server then login as zadmin.

• login zpanel

Step 6 – Go to Server Admin >> Module Admin menu.

• enable ajaxplorer

Step 7 – Next, enable Ajaxplorer module for Administrator, Reseller and Client then hit the Save Changes button.

• activate module

Step 8 – Before you test it, you better do some necessary checks. Now go to Putty / Terminal window again then issue this command;

shell> nano /etc/zpanel/configs/apache/httpd.conf

Step 9 – Make sure the following line as below:

"php_admin_value upload_tmp_dir /var/zpanel/temp"

and not as below (the wrong one):

"php_admin_value upload_tmp_dir /etc/zpanel/temp"

Otherwise you might find some errors.

Step 10 – Go back to zPanel configuration page in your browser. Click on File Management menu >> then Ajaxplorer >> followed by clicking the Launch Ajaxplorer button.

• launch ajaxplorer

Step 11 – You’ll notice that a new browser window appears launching Ajaxplorer main UI up. Wait for few seconds till the interface fully loaded.

• loading

And Voila!

4) back to your original instructions page and continue from step 5
