How to enable fantastico in WHM/cPanel

Sunday, July 11th, 2010

Prior to start, make sure that the server has been licensed to use fantastico.

ssh to your server and log in as root and do the following commands:

# cd /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi
# wget http://www.netenberg.com/files/free/fantastico_whm_admin.tgz
# tar -xzpf fantastico_whm_admin.tgz
# rm -rf fantastico_whm_admin.tgz

Login to your WHM (if already logged in, just refresh the page)
From the menu, under Plugins, click Fantastico De Luxe WHM Admin (located at the bottom).

the rest should be self explanatory :)

Stop Cpanel
% /etc/init.d/cpanel stop

Create the following files to disable CPanel’s Exim, POP, and IMAP services:

/etc/eximdisable
/etc/imapdisable
/etc/cpimapdisable
/etc/cppopdisable
/etc/popdisable

Afterwards, restart your Cpanel services:

% /etc/init.d/cpanel restart

Alternatively, you can turn them off in the CPanel interface in the Service Configuration panel.
