    You did it wrong. It's supposed to be "/deadpool" for proper recognition :p

    @mpkossen agrees

    Don't ever use VestaCP in a production environment.

    With commercial, good, well known panels costing peanuts, I don't see why would you use buggy, unstable and vulnerable projects. That's asking for trouble.

    Security issues ? What is wrong with VestaCP? I was loving it :)

    mpkossen said: Please, no more VestaCP. It's a security disaster waiting to happen. The way that code is set up... Boy... I've seen people being fired for less.

    Doesn't mean I don't appreciate the author's effort, though. It's just not something I'd recommend people to use in a production environment.

  • I would choose Virtualmin over VestaCP

  • I always recommend cpanel for production environments, it's very well supported, documented and is easy to use.

    For personal projects I use ispmanager lite edition. At only €4 per month for a license it's significantly cheaper than cpanel yet quite fully featured.

    Everyone speaks for security issues but noone knows what issues are. Care someone to explain why should we not use VestaCP, zPanel, Senorita ;) etc..

    zPanel has countless issues, senatora is a zPanel disaster waiting to happeb

    Search let yourself.

  • Okay, there are plenty of reasons not to use zPanel or their new fork Senorita, but VestaCP seems to be fine. Unless mpkossen is an all knowing god, it would be best to take his opinion with a mountain of salt. (And yes, he'll cry all over it)

  • Spent $9 for late night New Year's Eve drive-thru. Same amount for a cPanel license.

    Easy kid, it's not good to keep holding such a grudge for such a long time. There's better things to do in life.

    It's time for a car analogy :-)

    VestaCP is like a Rover 100 (Rover Metro/Austin Metro). Very badly constructed and as soon as you hit something it (and you) disintegrates. It works, though. I just wouldn't want to take the risk of driving it.

    What you want is something like a Volvo, which has been built properly from the start and can take a few blows before it gets a scratch or a dent. That's something I would like to drive. I personally think Virtualmin falls into this category and probably cPanel as well (as far as we can judge that code).

    So, if you want my advice (and everybody is free to ignore this), please don't take the risk of running VestaCP for your own sake and/or that of your customers.

    Virtualmin/Webmin does take some getting used to , but its awesome ...It helmed me in getting better at managing my servers ...

    Bud, I'm not holding a grudge. But please, point out the actual flaws instead of just saying stuff.

    zPanel was not very secure, ISP Config is probably the best open source panel - I'd say there is not much need for panels though

  • @0xdragon said:

    I did several times, but you don't seem to understand them or you don't consider them flaws.

    What you must realize is that I'm just giving my advice (based on my experience as a programmer) and personal opinion in the hopes of helping others. The fact that you may not agree with that shouldn't be a reason for you to make juvenile remarks about what I say.

  • This was my _first _time checking VestaCP source on github, honestly it is just HORRIBLE.

    Doing stuff like "exec(blablabla.$_GET["something"])" is just not acceptable.

    Session management is <insert appropriate word here>.

    Please DON'T use it!

    Dont use it because the code is bad its same as do not drive it because the color is bad or the engine is bad (without pointing something). This is not fair for the developers. They spent months maybe years to do it for us and then as thank you for the developer someone is saying do not use it its bad coded. If you guys are programers you could start to contribute and write some peace of new code.

    Am using zpanel for a long time and I got more issues with cpanel then zpanel.

    Go ahead use it, just don't cry here when you get hacked.

    How can I get hacked? What part of the program have a backdor? Tell me or shut up.

  • @WHT said:

    Chill, almost every single PHP part is very very poorly coded.

    1) session management
    2) excessive usage of "exec" and directly passing $_GET
    3) templating
    4) no CSRF protection
    5) MANY more things

    but hey, if you like it go ahead and use it :>
