Plasma Gaming Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I bought a droplet, set it all up. Installed apache, mysql, and php. I'm now trying to figure out if its possible to put cpanel on. If its not possible, then what can I use to manage files and databases online? Pretty stuck here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See here for how to install cPanel. There are a lot of alternatives to cPanel. Just to list a few; zPanel Plesk See more To manage databases, and I assume you are talking about MySQL (?) I personally like navicat. To manage files, you could just use WinSCP. Removing the bloat of cPanel (or any other interface) and working with FTP and remote MySQL connection is a preferred method, in my books, anyway.
