How do I upload my site to my LAMP server?

1. In the panel, open My servers and click your server.
2. On the Overview tab, wait for the App row to say "LAMP is ready". The page refreshes itself.
3. Open the link in the Site address row. The "Your server is ready" page shows that PHP is working.

Uploading your site

Your site root is the /var/www/html folder. Upload your files over SFTP, using the root user and password shown in the panel. Then give them the right owner:

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

The index.php in that folder is only a welcome page, so you can delete it. .htaccess files work. The PHP upload limit is 64 MB.

Database

Installation creates a database called site and a user with the same name. The Login and Password rows in the panel belong to this user. Connect from your site using localhost as the host. The database is not open to the outside.

Your own domain

1. Point your domain's A record to your server's IP address.
2. Connect over SSH and get the certificate: certbot --apache -d yourdomain.com

Certificates renew by themselves.

Only 80, 443 and 22 for SSH are open to the outside.

No server yet? Order a server with LAMP installed: you choose the size and pay for what you choose.
