Run the following command as root user:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hestiacp/hestiacp/release/install/hst-install.sh
sudo bash hst-install.sh

For customized installation, run this script to generate an extensive list of variables to apply with ‘sudo bash hst-install.sh‘ command. Here’s a customized install command that I generated for my installation:

sudo bash hst-install.sh --apache yes --phpfpm yes --multiphp yes --vsftpd yes --proftpd no --named yes --mysql yes --postgresql no --exim yes --dovecot yes --sieve no --clamav yes --spamassassin yes --iptables yes --fail2ban yes --quota yes --api yes --interactive yes --password no --with-debs no --port '8083' --hostname 'hestiacp.raddemo.host' --email 'admin@hestiacp.raddemo.host' --lang 'en'
