How to install Bright Game Panel in Debian - Dynamo - 10-04-2015

Hello Guys,
Today I am going to show you how we can install a Bright Game Panel in debian , I am making this tutorial as one of my Friend had asked "How I can install BGpanel ? "

Introduction

Bright Game Panel is a free and open source game server control panel. "BGPanel" utilizes many standard technologies available on many shared hosting platforms which gives all communities the ability to remotely control their game servers.

Lets Start:

First yous to do update & upgrade:

Code:
apt-get install sudo

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get upgrade

then going to install some utilities which bgpanel needs in order to get installed like apache, php, mysql server,etc.

Code:
sudo apt-get install -y apache2 php5 mysql-server php5-mysql php5-curl php5-gd screen zip php5-mcrypt

It will prompt for MySQL password,simplly fill password of your choice.

now restart the apache by typing this in console

Code:
sudo service apache2 restart

Now create a Database in MySQL for bgpanel by tyyping this

Code:
sudo mysql -p -r

this will prompt root password,fill it and hit enter then type this

Code:
create database brightgamepanel;

quit;

download bgpanel files by typing

Code:
wget https://github.com/warhawk3407/bgpanel/archive/develop-047.zip

then unzip the files by typing this

Code:
unzip <zip name>

now clear the web directory..

Code:
rm -rf /var/www/*

now move the bgpanel directory to /var/www/ by typing this

Code:
mv /<bigpanel folder name> /var/www/

Now open /var/www/configuration.php by typing this

Code:
sudo apt-get install nano

nano /var/www/configuration.php

and in 21st line u can see something like this "define('DBPASSWORD', '');" write MySQL password in '' then it should look like define('DBPASSWORD', 'yourmysqlpassword'); where yourmysqlpassword is your MySQL password and save the file.'

Now point the site directory to your files like

Code:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www

now open your browser and type your VPS ip then it will redirect you to install page,just install bgpanel and then delete install directory from /var/www/

thats it,Your BG Panel is ready for use.

Note: if you face Wrong Datase detection ERROR-
just remove old .version folder from your web files

Code:
rm -rf /var/www/.version

then just unzip the bgpanel files again and copy the .version folder from there to your /var/www/

I will try to reinstall it by following this method. I like the design of the panel.

Thanks Dynamo!
