Step 1: Update and Refresh Repository Lists

Open a terminal window, and enter the following:

Shell
sudo apt update

Step 2: Install Supporting Software

The software-properties-common package gives you better control over your package manager by letting you add PPA (Personal Package Archive) repositories. Install the supporting software with the command:

Shell
sudo apt install software-properties-common

Step 3: Add Deadsnakes PPA

Deadsnakes is a PPA with newer releases than the default Ubuntu repositories. Add the PPA by entering the following:

Shell
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa

The system will prompt you to press enter to continue. Do so, and allow it to finish. Refresh the package lists again:

Command
sudo apt update

Step 4: Install Python 3

Now you can start the installation of Python 3.8 with the command:

Shell
sudo apt install python3.8

Allow the process to complete and verify the Python version was installed successfully:

Shell
python3 --version

We are ready to install CyberPanel now. Enter this single command, then follow the installer step by step:

Shell
sh <(curl https://cyberpanel.net/install.sh || wget -O - https://cyberpanel.net/install.sh)

If you don’t know how to troubleshoot SQL errors, install it without remote SQL to avoid technical errors in future.

source /usr/local/CyberCP/bin/activate
pip install --ignore-installed -r /usr/local/CyberCP/requirments.txt
