Install DirectAdmin on CentOS 7.x step by step

For this we use a KVM VPS and we just have a clean CentOS 7.x installation.

Step 1
Install the prerequisites

yum install psmisc net-tools systemd-devel libdb-devel perl-DBI perl-Perl4-CoreLibs xfsprogs rsyslog logrotate crontabs file kernel-headers

Step 2
Download the setup.sh

wget https://www.directadmin.com/setup.sh

At this point you should have your DirecAdmin license handy since you will be requested for this during the installation.

Step 3
Prepare setup.sh

chmod +x setup.sh

Step 4
Run setup.sh

./setup.sh

./setup.sh
*** 64-bit OS ***

DirectAdmin requires certain packages, described here:

Would you like to install these required pre-install packages? (y/n):

You should proceed with "y" yes.

Once that's finished your license information is required, that you can obtain from our Client Area

Once the Installation finishes you are ready to use your server, you can access the DirectAdmin panel using your server external IP : https://xx.xx.xx:2222
