RE: How to install VPSSIM - A lightweight but simple control panel right on SSH - deanhills - 07-21-2020 NOTE OF CAUTION: @Wolf20482 I did some research on the script. Having a VPS Panel in SSH instead of with a browser was very attractive to me as I could well imagine that it would be a super lightweight panel to have. I was also attracted to the fact that VPSSIM works best with CentOS 7. I then discovered to my disappointment that although the script started strong in 2016, that possibly it is not as actively supported any longer, so members who want to try this script should do this with great caution. I found this post at LowEndTalk dated July 2019: "LowEndTalk - crossbin member Wrote:July 2019Source: https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/2995453/#Comment_2995453 I also found another discussion at LowEndTalk around 2016: https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/83340/has-anyone-using-vpssim-a-bash-script-auto-setup-nginx-php-fpm-mariadb-and-manage-vps-here Here is the main download site for the script: https://vpssim.com/ Looks like there is a strong Vietnamese influence here but with emphasis around 2016. Looks as though the script is not as actively supported any longer as it had been back then. I tried to access the Forum link from the vpssim.com website, but my browser came up with security concerns so together with the above feedback at LowEndTalk I thought to rather abandon the idea of trying the script: https://community.hostingaz.vn/ RE: How to install VPSSIM - A lightweight but simple control panel right on SSH - Wolf20482 - 07-22-2020 (07-21-2020, 09:13 PM)deanhills Wrote: NOTE OF CAUTION: I know the script isn't actively supported any more, but I still want to post a tutorial about it here so people can know about it and they can install it if they think that they can. Maybe I'll just place a warning here or make another script by myself. |
