VPSSIM supports the AlmaLinux, CentOS Stream, RockyLinux, and Oracle Linux operating systems, versions 8 and 9, on servers using Intel/AMD/ARM CPUs, allowing you to choose the operating system that best suits your needs.
When setting up a server with VPSSIM, you can choose the following versions:
PHP: The minimum version is PHP 7.2, depending on the operating system version you select. For example, with RHEL 9 (like AlmaLinux 9), PHP is available from version 7.4. With RHEL 8 (like AlmaLinux 8), PHP starts from version 7.2. After completing the server installation, if you want to change to another PHP version, use the “Change PHP Version” feature in VPSSIM.
Preparing the Server:
- A VPS (Server) running AlmaLinux, CentOS, RockyLinux, or Oracle Linux, version 8 or 9. While VPSSIM still supports CentOS Stream, I do not recommend using it for general users.
- PUTTY software for connecting to your VPS via SSH if you’re using Windows. On Linux/Mac, you can use the built-in Terminal. Simply log in to your server via SSH and copy the command from VPSSIM.Net to start the installation.
- VPSSIM includes an automatic swap creation feature. Therefore, after installing VPSSIM, you can quickly and easily create a swap without needing to set it up beforehand.
Set Up VPSSIM by Using Command:
curl https://get.vpssim.net -o install && sh install
then choose the language:
========================================================================= Powered by VPSSIM.COM & VPSSIM.NET ————————————————————————- Vietnamese: VPSSIM.COM | English: VPSSIM.NET ========================================================================= Select Language / Chon Ngon Ngu: ————————————————————————- 1. English 2. Vietnamese (Tieng Viet) ========================================================================= Type in your choice / Nhap lua chon cua ban [1-2]: 1
You can select English by typing 1 and pressing Enter. Next, VPSSIM will ask you to confirm disabling SELinux. Simply press Enter and VPSSIM will handle this process automatically.
VPSSIM will disable SELinux on the server before installation. ————————————————————————- After disabling SELinux, the server will reboot. ————————————————————————- Once the reboot is complete, please log in again using the root account. ————————————————————————- Then run the installation command again to continue installing VPSSIM. ========================================================================= Press [[ Enter ]] to begin disabling SELinux.
After disabling SELinux, whether the VPS needs to reboot depends on the system.
If a reboot is not required, you can skip the step of rerunning the installation command.
If your VPS does require a reboot, log in again and run the installation command as before:
curl https://get.vpssim.com -o install && sh install
After that, you will need to enter your email address and select the PHP version.
========================================================================= You can choose to install one of the following PHP versions: ————————————————————————- PHP: 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4 ========================================================================= Server Information: ————————————————————————- Server Type: kvm CPU Type: Intel Xeon Processor (Skylake, IBRS, no TSX) CPU Core: 2 CPU Speed: 2294.608 MHz Memory: 3562 MB IP: 95.216.187.190 ========================================================================= Currently, a valid email address is required to register for Free SSL. ————————————————————————- You only need to update your email address once, no password required. ========================================================================= Enter your email address: [email protected] ========================================================================= On this server, VPSSIM supports the following PHP versions: ========================================================================= 1) PHP 7.4 2) PHP 8.0 3) PHP 8.1 4) PHP 8.2 5) PHP 8.3 6) PHP 8.4 ========================================================================= Please enter the corresponding number for the PHP version you want to install. ————————————————————————- (Example: To install PHP 8.0, enter 2.) ————————————————————————- Enter your choice: 6 ========================================================================= Are you sure you want to install PHP 8.4?

The installation process will now begin:
————————————————————————- Preparing to set up the server … ————————————————————————- Please wait …
Once the installation is complete, VPSSIM will display the basic information such as the management link, username, and password for access:
