How can i install CXS on my server?

To install cxs on using the Installer Script you must first register your server with us by sending an email to sales@waytotheweb.com together with your order details and your servers main IP address.

When we confirm that this has been done, you should perform the following in a root shell on your server via SSH:

wget http://www.configserver.com/free/cxsinstaller.tgz
tar -xzf cxsinstaller.tgz
perl cxsinstaller.pl
rm -fv cxsinstaller.*

You must the follow the installation instructions in /etc/cxs/install.txt from step 2 onwards.

Note: If you are simply changing your server's IP address (and have notified us of the change) or reinstalling on a licensed server for any reason, you do not need to register with us again before performing the manual install.
