The only difference between this realease and our previous package (0.3.0_R5) is the support for australian dollars.

All colaborations will be added to the code for public usage.

Please follow these steps to perform a translation:

1) Unpack lang_gnupanel.tar.gz in a directory. You will find there three different files for each supported language. For english language for example these files are:

botones-en.lang
login-en.lang
mensajes-en.lang

“en” means english, “es” spanish, etc.

2) Open each file with your favorite editor.

3) Replace each line of the last field (“mensaje” field) with the equivalent one in the desired language.

4) Save each file with the same name and extension, you should change the two letters in red and nothing more (use “it” for italian, “pt” for portuguese or the letters corresponding to the code of the country.

5) Send us the files so we can add them to the package !!

On a Debian system the installation script will use these directories:

/usr/share/gnupanel (control panel)

/usr/local/gnupanel (all daemons and cron scripts)

/var/www/sitios (virtual hosting)

DEBIAN ETCH

DEBIAN LENNY

NOTA: Los repositorios “non-free” desaparecerán en la próxima version. Lenny ya tiene incluido el repositorio volatile, la llave pblica de los repositorios volatile para etch: http://www.debian.org/volatile/

UBUNTU 8.04

UBUNTU 8.10

Requirements: Debian Etch system

First of all you need a minimal Debian Etch installation (GNUPanel is designed to be installed on new Debian installations with no hosted sites). You can get a “netinst” image (100-150 MB) from here.

Once the base system is ready you should follow these steps to have GNUPanel working properly:

0- Edit /etc/hosts to add this line:

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx my_domain.com my_machine

(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your public IP and “my_domain” is the domain where the panel listen)

1- Log in to your shell as root.

2- Run dpkg-reconfigure locales and mark all “en_US”, “es_ES” and “es_AR”.

3- Edit /etc/apt/sources.list and modify to looks like this:

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ etch main contrib

deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib

(this two lines)

4- Update the system running:

apt-get update

apt-get dist-upgrade

5- Download the last stable version of GNUPanel and unpack on a directory.

mkdir /directory

tar -xzvf fichero.tar.gz -C /directory

o

tar -xjvf fichero.tar.bz2 -C /directory

6- Change to the previous directory and run these scripts in order:

./install-debian-dep.sh

./gnupanel-install.sh

gnupanel-config.sh

7- When the process is finished you will find the GNUPanel administrator interface in:

http://public_ip/admin

Now you should add all IP addresses for the server:

Main menu –> Add IP

and any secondary servers you may have.

8- Create the first reseller plan and the first reseller associated to your main domain (the corresponding user will be automatically created).

9- From now on you can enter all GNUPanel levels:

https://gnupanel.main_domain/admin

https://gnupanel.main_domain/reseller

https://gnupanel.main_domain/users

https://gnupanel.main_domain/mail
