Hello. I am looking for free hosting panel and found ISPConfig 3. I know VestaCP and CWP Panel and try to find diferences. What I am lookin at hosting panel with out of the box function: - Apache + Nginx as reverse proxy [CWP, VestaCp] - MariaDB + PostgreSQL [CWP, VestaCP] - Many different PHP Version: 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2 [CWP] - Possibility to set up different PHP version per domain and per directory via htaccess [CWP] - API [VestaCP] - OpenSource [VestaCP] Is ISPConfig good for me ? What is the best free hosting panel in 2018 year ?
ISPConfig supports Apache and real Nginx setups, not just proxy setups. It supports MySQL and MariaDB, multiple PHP versions, the ability to select the PHP version from within ISPConfig, no manual .htaccess file editing required, it has an API, supports multiple servers and mirroring, is deployed by many ISP companies and you can use it for large-scale setups, it is OpenSource and many more features, see details on ispconfig.org.
Multiple PHP versions are part of the ISPConfig core, so it is a feature that is always included in ISPConfig and it works out of the box if the underlying system that you installed ISPConfig on has multiple PHP binaries installed. Software that you want to use on your server needs to be installed on your server, I guess that should be obvious to you if you installed a server before.
But where can I found install script that I run and install all things ? I sse some tutorials where I see I have to do many thing to run different versions of PHP with ISPConfig. The same if I want run nginx as reverse proxy I need to configure it manually. As I understend. First I install Apache. Then I need to install manually nginx and manually change configuration.
ISPConfig does not use nginx as proxy. As I explained above, ISPconfig has real nginx support. You can find many different installation tutorials for all kind of ISPConfig configurations and also for the installation of additional PHP versions on the ispconfig.org documentation page and here on howtoforge.com. If you compile PHP versions yourself or if you obtain them from a repository is up to you.
