Installing CloudLinux on cPanel:

1. Check Compatibility:

   • Connect to your server via SSH as the root user.
    

   bash command

    

   wget https://repo.cloudlinux.com/cloudlinux/sources/cln/cldeploy sh cldeploy -k
   • This command installs the CloudLinux kernel.

4. Install LVE Manager:

   bash command

    

   yum install lvemanager -y

5. Register Your Server:

   • Register your server with CloudLinux using your activation key.
    

   bash command
