Installation Guide - Experimental Installation on Unsupported Operating Systems
Overview
This document describes how to install cPanel & WHM on an unsupported operating system. This method disables most cPanel OS detection and assumes the distribution version you provide at installation. We added this feature in cPanel & WHM version 102.
We do not recommend using unsupported operating systems. This is an experimental feature and may result in cPanel & WHM behaving in unexpected ways. We do not provide support for experimental operating systems.
Installation procedure
To install cPanel & WHM on an unsupported operating system, run the following command, where operatingsystem
is one of cPanel & WHM’s supported operating systems:
sh latest --experimental-os=operatingsystem
For example, the following command forces the system to assume the operating system in use is AlmaLinux OS version 8:
sh latest --experimental-os=almalinux-8.4
If you attempt to use CloudLinux, the attempt will fail.
