Hi,
today i bought a vps with windows 2012 and it came with solusvm and i didn't knew i can't install any websites using it :P as this is my first vps.

Now i need a way to install any software which can work as cpanel to manage my websites on this cpanel.
I tried installing xampp but the apache didn't loaded so it didn't worked.

so please help me out with a solution asap.

Thanks in Advance.:sun:

You can try plesk for windows for a Control Panel or Websitepanel will also do the task. Check the requirements for the 2012 Server first.
 
Everyone is so against Windows, I have a dedicated server with Windows Server 2012 running on it and Xampp next to it and it runs my forum just fine. It is just much easier for a noob (like me) to control the server.

Never thought about it. I already have a Win VPS, will try to setup Xampp on it. :-=
 
Now i have migrated to Linux vps as my intention to run RDP on it as i have bought another rdp account.

Now i need help to configure the vps based on Centos 6.4 64 bit.

I found some command but need a proper tutorial on how to configure the vps and how to run ftp on it.

the commands i knew are as follows

sudo yum install httpd
sudo service httpd start
sudo yum install php
sudo service httpd start
sudo yum install httpd
sudo nano /var/www/html/info.php


<?php
phpinfo();
?>

sudo service httpd restart

but i still doubt on using so please guide me to it properly.
 
If you don't know how to do it, get a shared hosting account for your websites.
Then learn to admin your vps before trying to host websites on it.

I already have shared hosting account but they all come with cpanel in them and the vps i am using is unmanaged so both things are far different to each other.

I know it's different, perhaps you should look into installing ISPConfig3 or webmin/virtualmin on your vps to start with.
google them and look at the guides that are available on the internet.
 
Several things you can use.

Centmin has an easy menu to add websites after it is installed.

Webmin /virtualmin is a little more difficult but lots of documents around to help.

Kloxo is another you can use.

If you are planning this vps for your personal use I suggest centmin.
