Self-hosted server control panel — built for hosting providers, agencies and developers running real production workloads.

This repository is the public feedback hub for Panelica. Panelica is commercial software with a proprietary core. This repo does not contain source code — it exists so users, customers and the wider community can report bugs, request features, ask questions and follow what we're working on, in the open.

Panelica is a modern Linux server control panel. It manages domains, websites, email, DNS, databases, SSL, FTP/SFTP, scheduled tasks, file storage, monitoring, security, and Docker workloads — all from one isolated, secure stack.

Highlights:

• 5-layer isolation architecture — cgroups v2, Linux namespaces, SSH chroot, per-user PHP-FPM pools, strict UNIX permissions
• Production stack — PostgreSQL 17, MySQL 8, Redis 7, NGINX + Apache, BIND, Postfix/Dovecot, ProFTPD, ClamAV, ModSecurity + OWASP CRS, Fail2ban, Prometheus
• First-class roles — ROOT / ADMIN / RESELLER / USER with granular RBAC and full impersonation
• Migration-friendly — first-class import paths from cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin and CyberPanel
• Built for English + 30+ languages — full i18n across panel, emails and templates

The full feature set lives at https://panelica.com/features.

Use the right channel — it makes triage faster and gets you a better answer.

Security disclosures stay private. If you've found a vulnerability, follow SECURITY.md — never open a public issue or discussion for it.

Every issue gets read. Here's roughly what happens after you open one:

1. Triage (within ~3 business days) — we label the issue with a status and, where useful, an area (area: dns, area: php, area: ui, ...).
2. Reproduction — bugs are confirmed against the current stable release. We may ask for logs, panel version, or environment details.
3. Status updates — labels track the lifecycle: triaged → confirmed → in-progress → fixed in vX.Y.Z (or won't-fix / needs-info / duplicate with an explanation).
4. Release — fixed bugs ship in the next patch or minor release. Watch the changelog or subscribe to changelog.rss.

We do not auto-close stale issues. If something matters to you and goes quiet, ping the thread.

• A specific, descriptive title (SSL renewal fails on subdomain with DNS-01 beats SSL bug)
• Panel version (Settings → About or footer)
• OS / distribution (Ubuntu 24.04, Debian 12, ...)
• Exact steps to reproduce — copy-pasteable commands beat prose
• Expected vs. actual behaviour
• Relevant log snippets from /opt/panelica/var/logs/ (redact secrets!)
• Screenshots for UI issues

The bug-report form prompts you for all of this — please don't strip it out.

• Source-code patches — Panelica's core is proprietary; we can't merge PRs to it. PRs to docs / examples / templates referenced in this repo are welcome.
• Account-specific support — license keys, billing, suspended accounts → use the customer portal.
• Personal config debugging beyond the panel — kernel tuning, custom kernel modules, exotic hardware.
• Pirated installations — we won't help with leaked or unlicensed copies.

• GitHub Projects board — current sprint and backlog (when we publish one)
• enhancement issues — community-requested features
• Changelog — what shipped in the last 30 days
