How to install vbulletin on dedicated server or vps, where the operating system is linux / ubuntu.
in most cases you can search online but there is nothing specific about how it can be done. I tried to bring something to simplify your research
Step-by-step actions you will have illustrated with photos:
First open terminal and install Apache2
Check your web server in your browser by typing http://localhost or 127.0.0.1:80 if it works correctly
in the next step we will install php5
also we need client/server MySQL database :
and install mysql server
let’s try to change the old password to a new database password. you can set a password that you would like to enter:
we will now start the web server:
1) start 2) stop 3) restart
database management.
In order to login in to a database you should type this string mysql -u your-domain-name-in-linux -p
if you'd like to test your database you should type this one: show databases;
then we will go to the files and change the config.php.new to config.php and edit it:
which is located in /var/www/html/ your directory /upload/includes
enter the url just as it is written in the address bar in a web browser and try to start the installation process
You just have to change the title and email address to whatever you want
skip it
Set up your admin account
This means you should remove the install folder from the /forum folder
cd /var/www/html/forum and then find the directory 'install' and remove it by typing rm -rf
Refresh your web browser and try to login to admin panel

Code:
Then create a database called db
CREATE DATABASE db;
Create a database user called dbuser with new password
CREATE USER 'dbuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'new_password_here';
Then grant the user full access to the database.
GRANT ALL ON db.* TO 'dbuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'user_password_here' WITH GRANT OPTION;
Finally, save your changes and exit.
