Setting up web site with WHM/CPanel

[SecondSight]

Hello !

I'm new to WHM/CPanel and I'm reading articles about it (but I don't always know what to search for...).

I would like to know the different steps to set up web sites (CMS + databases) with WHM/CPanel.

Could someone explain this to me ?

Thank you !

Me too. I have been using shared hosting up to now, and was happy enough using cPanel and various other control panels that come with shared hosting.

Now I have got VPS that comes with WHM and cPanel together.

WHM is way over my head, and the cPanel section of it bears no resemblance to the shared hosting cPanel (apart from the logo!)

Where, for example do I sort out FTP access? What about password protected directories? Where's phpmyadmin?

I just don't get it!

The cPanel section is the same on a VPS as on a dedicated server. Perhaps your previous provider was using a custom cPanel theme.

FTP Access: Go to the "Files" section and click "FTP Accounts"
Password Protected Directories: Go to the "Security" section and click "Password Protect Directories"
phpMyAdmin: Go to the "Databases" section and click phpMyAdmin.

If you are not seeing any of this, please verify you are logging into the cPanel interface.

You can login by going to: example.com/cpanel (replacing example.com for any domain pointing to that server) or http://IP:2082 where IP is the IP address for your server.

There's a cPanel icon in WHM, but when I click it I get icons for:

Addon scripts (deprecated)
Branding
Enable/Disable Outlook AutoConfig
Install cPAddons
Manage Plugins
Manage cPAddons
Modify cPanel/WHM News
Reset a Mailman Password
Shopping Cart Reset
Synchronize FTP Passwords
Upgrade to Latest Version

I have no idea how to get to the actual cPanel interface you describe, and with which I am familiar.
