Recently, I have been spending my time on VPS. The free Xen VPS system I applied for has been reinstalled N times. I have also tried lnmp several times. The same goes for KLOXO. I originally wanted to get the D version of the DA panel, but it has never been successful (successful). Later, I will write a tutorial), today we will talk about installing WHMCS on VPS.
After searching on the Internet, the current WHMCS XX version that is newer and easier to use is 5.0.3, as well as 4.41 and 4.31 (at the end of the article, I will update and share the download links of these versions in time) , I have installed all these versions, they are similar. Today we will go through the installation process with 4.41.
First, of course, upload the file. Use the FTP tool to transfer the downloaded compressed package to the VPS (or server). You can choose which directory to transfer to. Here I created a whmcs folder in the root directory of the website and prepared to install WHMCS4.41 here.
After uploading the compressed package, go to Putty and decompress it online. Since I uploaded the compressed package to /home/wwwroot/whmcs/, I will take this as an example.
#cd /home/wwwroot/whmcs
#unzip whmcs4.41.zip
OK, decompression is complete. Next we need to set the 777 attribute in configuration.php, as well as the folder attachments, downloads, and templates_c. This can be done directly with an FTP tool (FlashFXP is recommended), or of course, with direct commands.
Ok, now the installation begins. (Before installation, first ensure that a database has been established)
The installation process is relatively simple. Enter your IP address (or your domain name) /whmcs/install/install.php in the browser to start the installation (here it starts with The location of the folder I uploaded is taken as an example).
We need to enter the Key during installation. Because it is a cracked version, just enter it casually and everything will pass.
Other things that need to be used during installation are the email address, database name, database username, password, and setting the administrator account and password. The entire installation process is very fast, basically fill in the database information and the next step is completed immediately.
After the installation is completed, use the FTP tool to delete the install folder (if you do not delete the installation folder, you can open the WHMCS installation address and there will be a prompt). The following is the XX version of each version that has been updated in time...

Everyone should note that of the two versions I provide here, version 4.41 is already available by default. Chinese (Chinese on the front desk) interface, all English interface on the backend. Version 4.31 is installed in English by default, but the download package contains Chinese files for the frontend and backend. Just follow the instructions to upload them.
In fact, the installation of WHMCS is very simple, basically the same as how we install DZ and WP. However, the background settings of WHMCS are quite troublesome. In the next step, I will give some background setting guidelines, including adding the Alipay interface.
☆☆☆Finally, I would like to remind you that since many cracked versions may have backdoors, I strongly recommend that you only use them for testing and not for sales to avoid losses. If you need to use it for commercial purposes, it is recommended that you purchase the genuine version from VPSAA, starting from only RMB7 yuan/month: WHMCS (free genuine authorization) host ordering link (click to go directly)→☆☆☆
