Softaculous Webuzo is a single user LAMP stack control panel that allows you to deploy a growing number of applications and scripts on your server with a single click.

Deploying the Webuzo Marketplace App

The Linode Marketplace allows you to easily deploy software on a Linode using the Linode Cloud Manager.

  1. Log in to the Cloud Manager and select the Marketplace link from the left navigation menu. This displays the Linode Compute Create page with the Marketplace tab pre-selected.

  2. Under the Select App section, select the app you would like to deploy.

  3. Fill out all required Options for the selected app as well as any desired Advanced Options (which are optional). See the Configuration Options section for details.

  4. Complete the rest of the form as discussed within the Getting Started > Create a Linode.

  5. Click the Create Linode button. Once the Linode has provisioned and has fully powered on, wait for the software installation to complete. If the Linode is powered off or restarted before this time, the software installation will likely fail. To determine if the installation has completed, open the Linode’s Lish console and wait for the system login prompt to appear.

  6. Follow the instructions within the Getting Started After Deployment section.

Software installation should complete within 2-10 minutes after the Linode has finished provisioning. This time frame depends on a variety of factors, including which data center has been selected.

Configuration Options

Webuzo Options

The Webuzo Marketplace form includes advanced fields to setup your Webuzo server’s limited user account and DNS records. These are optional configurations and are not required for installation.

FieldDescription
The limited sudo user to be created for the LinodeThis is the limited user account to be created for the Linode. This account has sudo user privileges.
The password for the limited sudo userSet a password for the limited sudo user. The password must meet the complexity strength validation requirements for a strong password. This password can be used to perform any action on your server, similar to root, so make it long, complex, and unique.
The SSH Public Key that will be used to access the LinodeIf you wish to access SSH via Public Key (recommended) rather than by password, enter the public key here.
Disable root access over SSH?Select Yes to block the root account from logging into the server via SSH. Select No to allow the root account to login via SSH.

General Options

For advice on filling out the remaining options on the Create a Linode form, see Getting Started > Create a Linode. That said, some options may be limited or recommended based on this Marketplace App:

  • Supported distributions: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
  • Recommended minimum plan: All plan types and sizes can be used.

Getting Started after Deployment

The Webuzo application is now being served on your Linode, however it still requires a few additional steps to fully complete the installation process.

  1. The Webuzo setup wizard is served on port 2004. To access it, navigate to the IP address of your server followed by port 2004. For example, http://203.0.113.0:2004, replacing the IP address with values for your server. If you do not see the initial setup screen (shown below), you may need to restart your Compute Instance.

  2. At the setup screen, fill in the fields and click the Install button. The installation may take a few minutes to fully complete.

  3. Once installation is completed, Webuzo Congratulates you on completing the setup and displays a confirmation screen.

    Here you find two links. One for the Admin Panel and one for the page where you can begin installing applications. The second is called the Enduser Panel, which can also be accessed from the Admin Panel. Both require you to login using the username and password you just created on the setup screen.

    • Admin Panel: http://your.ip.address:2004
    • Enduser Panel: http://your.ip.address:2002
  4. The Admin Panel allows you to change settings for what scripts and apps you are able to install and provides the option to update them as needed.

  5. The Enduser Panel allows you to install a number of applications. It is sorted into sections based on application category.

Note
Currently, Linode does not manage software and systems updates for Marketplace Apps. It is up to the user to perform routine maintenance on software deployed in this fashion.
