VPS help!
Recently, I brought my first VPS it's on CentOS. I was using Plesk Panel and decided to go with Cpanel. So I Cleaned and installed new centOS template. The problem is I just brought Cpanel as Cpanel automatically install on to your hostname, for some reason my domain is not updating with Cpanel I can only see the Apachi page. It's confusing I've logged in my Putty and nothing is happening. I'm using a Domain that VPS company provided. Also I am still running Parallels Power Panel that was provided by my host company Cpanel brought by ( buycpanel.com) it says it's active my Cpanel

As I understand you have uninstalled all your templates and plesk panel and then you made fresh installation of CentOS and cPanel but cPanel isn't working yet.
First is your VPS managed or unmanaged?
When the new cPanel installation was made?

I was asleep when he tried to hit me up via Skype, I did mention to him that you guys did do installation with license purchase, I'm guessing he got stuck shortly after refreshing his VPS with a clean CentOS installation. (and may be confused bout how power panel isn't the same thing as plesk as seems like he was asking how to 'disconnect' power panel from puTTY).

Once you've licensed cPanel for your IP address either from cPanel directly, your VPS provider, or the likes of BuycPanel...
1. Reinstall CentOS. For cPanel, you always want to start with a clean install of the OS. Have your VPS provider reinstall it for you.
2. Follow the instructions that I've linked to below directly at the cPanel website. They are detailed and will walk you through the whole process.
http://docs.cpanel.net/twiki/bin/vie...nGuide/WebHome
Edit: You can start at step 5 from that link.
When BuycPanel said 'its active' they are talking about the license. As in, your IP is ready for a cPanel installation, not that cPanel is already installed.Last edited by SajanP; 05-31-2012 at 07:36 AM.

512MB *bare minimum* , he's away at the moment so I'm disabling stuff like dns, ftp, mail (dns and mail can be done externally, ftp not needed if single user [ie: ssh/sftp], disabled spamassasin if not using email) but yea needs to upgrade ram for sure.
Figured can offer suggestions here (cpanel/whm isn't a control panel I use personally on a day to day basis, but I know my way around it).
Edit: yea disabling those cut the memory down to about 40% used. But when the server actually gets traffic that's going to be a different story. (that and apache isn't even running yet, no accounts yet).IonVz - Nginx/FreeBSD/VPS Consulting | VPSNodeBox - Managed Support Representative

Well if he had the ram I'd say use em all (he's doesn't know Linux CLI and such).
But yea he needs more memory, can't even recompile apache with that restraint, I had to check Skype log to see who his provider is, and these are the specs
0.33ghz
160MB ram
10GB hdd
150gb traffic

Just figured since they already installed plesk on that VPS prior (since plesk is what they give) that he had enough memory to handle whm/cpanel.IonVz - Nginx/FreeBSD/VPS Consulting | VPSNodeBox - Managed Support Representative
