Installation

File Permissions

Set correct ownership for the Southactyl panel files.

File permissions

The web server user must own the panel files.

For NGINX, Apache, or Caddy:

Terminal

chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/southactyl/*

Terminal

chown -R nginx:nginx /var/www/southactyl/*

Terminal

chown -R apache:apache /var/www/southactyl/*

Terminal

ls -lah /var/www/southactyl
ls -lah /var/www/southactyl/storage

If the panel shows a blank page or 500 error later, bad permissions are one of the first things to check.

Migrations and Admin User

Run Southactyl migrations and create the first administrator account.

Scheduler and Queue Worker

Configure cron and systemd queue worker for Southactyl.
