I like to learn about generating a Hardware Pairing key and Checksum key. 
Any simple introduction of these two keys in Hex format and way to generate it ?
Here is the simple example of these keys which demanding for a program i like to be install into my VPS. 

HWPAIRING KEY: 4A7478ECC5AE04B6D413795A7789DDC6DC857039FED5925119FF3A0364F961F4A7DC8398FCBF8B157D4DDAEB4F0245F7A54959AD6CE12A3F2A86B98D7708B058

CHECKSUM: A06D39534FDCE7D561CB3B29108B4E56


These dummy keys is just for a format and i like to know about purpose of these keys because during installation i got a error message at the end that these keys are not matching with existing hardware. 

Help me if anyone know about it. how to generate a valid HW keys for my VPS. or hardware machine. 

Thankyou.]]>

My issue is not with installing WP from the command line.  My issue is with setting permissions.  It may also have to do with my VPS security settings with SELinux and requirement for having the correct side script language in an .htaccess page.  And also having more than one .htaccess in more than one location.  Preferably I don't want to use .htaccess at all, as like the SELinux cop out for disabling it, I think .htaccess is also an overrider of security.

I've done basically everything with the permissions.  Like I always disable SELinux as standard.  I've learned how to open all of the ports.  How to check how to listen to them.  How to set up users and CHOWN them.  How to set up the right permissions for the folders and files. Yet I've been unsuccesful with setting up WP. I must be doing something wrong.

I'm comfortable with how VestaCP set up its filing system.  I have success with WP every time with VestaCP.  I can do it with eyes closed.  I install WP with VestaCP from the command line and basically only use the database and file setup and server of VestaCP.  I only need to add the command below at the end of the installation so I can install plugins and themes in WP directly from the WP Dashboard.

chown admin -R *

However  when I install WP from the command line in a non-panel environment in Apache and use the above chown command for admin, it says no such user.  When I try to create a user admin in a non-panel environment I can't do so. I can create non-admin name users, but not admin.  I  get it that the file path to the domain in apache and nginx is /var/www/html and the virtual host .conf files in etc/conf. I've worked through tons of step to set up permissions for those folders. I get how they are set up but am obviously missing something as in most cases I can't get WP admin set up right.  Even when I nano the content of index.html, it fetches the generic Apache index.html from somewhere else. When I delete index.html from the root of the domain apache still gets another index.html that is the generic Apache page.  I know about cache and deleting it everywhere including in your OS. Whatever I do the index.html stays with the default original Apache index file, and if I fiddle too much everything breaks and it goes to 404 or cannot find.

I need a really good tutorial for getting the folder and file structure, and permissions as well as users right.  There has to be something that one does to for example create one's own folder structure like VestaCP does under home/admin/web/domain.com/public_html/ and then get it pointed to the var/www/html direction (where in VestaCP there are no sub-folders and files) but where Apache wants it to be, and ditto with the dot.conf virtual host files, of getting the permissions and users right.  A step by step tutorial with no steps missed.  I get it how to create .htaccess.  But the standard wording provided does not make any difference.  Looks like .htaccess has to be copied to other Web folders and not only the root folder of the domain.  

Installation of php is also an issue.  There are millions of ways of doing it.  But I think that may be an issue too.  I know how to do the initial installation to set it up for a specific version of php before one installs php. But I'd like to get a simpler way of doing it. I don't feel as in control with php as i do with MariaDB.

Until I get the above right, I'm sticking with the Debian Fork by dpeca of myVestaCP as it works OK for me.  But I'd be really happy with myself if I could find a simple minimalist way of getting to use WordPress with no panel at all from the command line.  I know how to use MariaDB, I can create a database and user from the command line. I can give the database a user and permissions.  I know my way into phpmyadmin. I can do some edits in phpmyadmin, import databases, create new one. I can create WP from the command line.  I can create a static Website from the command line.  But the permissions of the Administrator of WP as well as where Apache fetches everything has me at a loss. I don't get it when I delete index.html why and where Apache fetches its default page.  Even when cache and everything associated with cache has been removed.]]>

I installed a LAMP Stack on CentOS 7:

Webserver httpd
Disabled SELinux
MariaDB server
phpmyadmin
php 7.3
Ioncube
WordPress

Felt quite funny to be working from var/www/html instead of home/admin/web/..... The first part went OK. I was able to get a Website up easy.

Challenge came with Wordpress. I was happy I could get it up and running. Once installed, when the install windows came up promptly when I typed in my URL. With the database info I provided (installed with MariaDB from command prompt), WordPress was not too happy - it could not create the config file automatically but prompted me to create and upload it manually. And that worked out OK. Problem came with trying to download plugins. The plugins wouldn't come up for selection. I was able to install them manually through uploading zipped folders from my computer. But was unable to update them, or create new ones directly from WordPress. Something went wonky with the permissions.

In all of my previous installations all I had to do was to provide the following simple chown command after installation of WP so that plugins could be installed and updated from the dashboard:

chown admin -R *

However with the installation of Apache through command line, it can't find the user "Admin". So I now wonder what I need to do to be able to use:
chown admin -R *

I then Googled this to death - tried all kinds of other things - none of which helped:

chown apache:apache /var/www/html
chown -R apache /var/www/html/

I finally followed the suggestion in this recommendation - which I think broke my WP site in the end:
https://www.ryadel.com/en/set-file-syste...s-7-chmod/

Created a script file that I uploaded to the root of my var/www/html folder with this bash command:

Code:
bash set-wordpress-permissions.sh /var/www/

And I think it broke the WordPress installation as I was no longer able to get in.

So does any one know what I need to do to get chown admin -R* to work? I.e. create admin?

I'm going back to VestaCP temporarily, so I can check the conf files.

I need some command for mariadb I think to make wordpress happy. Give it permissions. At least WP had a workaround with getting me to upload the wp-config.php manually. But that was the first hickup.

I also need a command for setting up admin to work with wordpress.]]>

These are the steps I followed for changing the port:

yum install nano
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
I removed the #comment before Port 22 and changed the 22 to 6382
Then successfully saved it - ctrl X - Y - Enter
Then tried to restart ssh: service sshd restart

An error came up and it wouldn't allow me to restart the service.  Unfortunately I didn't copy the error wording but it basically said that sshd was unavailable.  Of course when I tried to get in again via SSH there was an error.  I then reinstalled the OS again.  Googled the issue.  Tried alternative commands.  But same results.  Once I've done a change in /etc/ssh/sshd_config I can't get in any longer.  At one point I even tried to change back to #Port 22 - the way it was before. I was still unable to get in again.]]>

I've been using VestaCP since the day I started with VPS 9 in 2018. It's still working great, but I can't recommend it as the original script has not been updated since January of last year. Why I like VestaCP is because of how light and fast it is.  You need very few specs to run the panel.

who also has VPS 9 has been using a fork of VestaCP (from Belgium) very successfully but with CentOS 7.  So if you are interested to use his fork of VestaCP, you will have to change to CentOS 7.

If you want to try VestaCP for Debian specifically, there is another VestaCP fork that is fully up to date that has been created for specific use with Debian. You can check it out here:

Today in my VPS control panel i found an option of installation. There are three different options including Control Panel. I clicked and found that i can directly install control panels on my VPS. I saw that cPanel is also available in list. So my question is that by installing cPanel from VPS's Control Panel. Can i directly use it for free? or do i have to make a purchase?
If its free it will be very great. Wink  but i don't think its free as we normally requires its License to use.]]>                    I have a question in my mind. is cPanel free ?

Not sure whether you can help in this. I Googled the issue almost to death and didn't get anywhere. I'm a real noob with tinkering under the phpmyadmin dashboard. My limits are editing user and domain info and passwords.

Today I was testing the functionality of cpanel. So while doing that I thought to reinstall an old phpBB Forum I'd rolled up a few months ago. I thought that would give a few functions of the panel a good workout.

Add on domain worked great. Folders were fine. Except interestingly, in this particular cpanel the folder for the add on domain was created on the same level as public_html and not as a sub-directory inside public_html.

Next workout was to create an empty mysql database and to import my old phpBB database into it. And that's where I got stuck. I did everything correct. According to the book. However an error came up about using "pass" instead of "password" (refer exact wording below). I get it that the wording has changed in more recent databases to full password. However, how does one fix that error in the backup SQL database one imports. I tried to tick a box during the import so it would ignore the error, and it did complete the import then (or so it looked), however when I checked there was zero MB content in it - it basically only imported the structure of the database. Is there a way that I could edit an old database where "pass" is used instead of "password", or is there a database checker somewhere where one can fix errors before one imports the database?

BTW I tried this in two different host's cpanels and the exact same errors came up. This is the error that came up:

Quote:Warning: Using unique option prefix pass instead of password is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please use the full name instead.

I was just notified today that my cPanel host is closing their doors Dec 7 so I am in the process of moving my main domain over to my VPS. I am currently running into an issue where tbelldesign.co is redirecting to dev.tbelldesign.co and I am not sure how to remedy the problem. I have cruised around the internet for a bit and I am not fining any viable solutions, so I am wondering if anyone else has seen this issue and know how to fix it. Thanks!]]>

The general consensus I found was do NOT use a repository to install the package, as many people have been hitting a 403 Forbidden error and the packages tend to be out of date. I opted for the manual install, per Hidden's recommendation and I am still having issues. Here is what I have done thus far:

- I downloaded phpMyAdmin 4.9.5 from their site using wget
- Extracted the the tar ball in /var/www/html (Web Server Document Root for CentOS)
- Edited and renamed the config.sample.inc.php file to config.inc.php
- Modified the permissions of the folder and contents to be owned by root

I am still hitting a 403 error and I am not sure what what my options are or where my mistake lands. Any help would be appreciated so I can get up and running!
