Questions about Vesta
Questions about Vesta
Heya,
I've been looking for a panel for webhosting for quite some time..and stumbled on Vesta last night.
Questions:
1. What does Vesta best run on? CentOS or Debian?
2. Is there anyway to make it pure Nginx with no Apache? or the other way straight Apache with no Nginx?
3. Can someone explain what the different templates are for when creating a package? e.g Apache Templates, Nginx templates, DNS templates.
4. Can you use a subdomain for different customers? like website1.example.org for one customer and website3.example.org for another?
5. What are all the ports needed for the firewall to unblock?
thanks so much!

Hey David
1. CentOS was the first platform so it's kinda well tested. But it looks like Ubuntu and Debian works fine too.
2. Nginx-only configuration is not yet supported. Apache-only setup is possible
3. First of all predefined templates were created to show that control panel is flexible and can be tuned in every possible way. However, bundled templates aren't ephemeral at all. They cover real user scenarios. Like for example you can host your emails on a google app and there is special template called "gmail" which automatically create necessary MX records for proper config. If you like to limit memory for specific domain you can assign hosting template. If you like to use python you can download wsgi template. If you have some legacy project which requires php4 then you can customize phpcgi template. And so on and so on. Templates are located in the /usr/local/vesta/data/templates folder feel free to modify them. In most cases default template is the best choice.
4. Yeah, no problem with that
5. Well, nothing special here FTP, SSH, MAIL, DNS, POP, IMAP, HTTP, HTTPS, MySQL if you want to have remote access and 8083 for vesta webinterface.

Thank you Skid :)
Everything will run fine on OpenVZ correct? Just double checking on this :)
& is there a good way to disable mail totally from users?
Re: Questions about Vesta
Yes vesta is working smoothly on OpenVZ.
To disable email support, run following commands
service exim stop
chkconfig exim off

#/etc/init.d/exim stop
#update-rc.d exim disable/off
Hopefully it helps someone.

Hi there,
I've followed the steps in http://vestacp.com/docs/#how-to-remove- ... ian-ubuntu but the step 5 returns and error and nginx is running anyway.
How can I proceed?
Thank you.
