Getting Ready

Choosing OS For Xtream UI Main Server:

First of all, select Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS (Bionic Beaver) Or Ubuntu 18.04 as the operating system of your dedicated server. Make sure its dedicated server not the VPS, VPS still can be used but is never recommended.

Install Necessary Software PuTTY and WinSCP:

Make sure to install PuTTY and WinSCP on your local machine which you’ll use to command your dedicated server like your home or work PC or laptop so we can run commands on PuTTY and transfer files using WinSCP. PuTTY is mostly used to this thing always but to make files transfers the WinSCP software is always useful.

Logging To Root User:

If your server company has sent you any other username except root then lets first make it let us login as root.

  • Open PuTTY
  • Paste it the IP or hostname of your dedicated server
  • Hit Enter
  • It will ask for some security concerns, ignore them and Yes
  • Now it will ask you to provide a username, provide your company provided username like I’m gonna use mine as lofertech
  • Enter provided password and after successful login command su root and hit enter
  • It will now ask you root password add same password that you used to login to your custom username and hit enter.
  • If login is success, we’ll next process to make our server enable for root login. Or if your login fails here, the fix is only contact your company and ask them to enable root and send you root password.
  • Now enter command
    apt-get install nano && nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config

    This will install nano and and open file /etc/ssh/sshd_config

In this file, you’ll see following lines:

# Authentication:
#LoginGraceTime 2m
#PermitRootLogin prohibit-password
#StrictModes yes
#MaxAuthTries 6
#MaxSessions 10

Where you can see

#PermitRootLogin prohibit-password

you need to edit it to

PermitRootLogin yes

. So, just remove # and replace

prohibit-password

with yes . When changed made, type

CTRL + X

then Y and hit enter.

Then run this command:

sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart

And finally change the password to anything by typing

passwd

So, we made root login enabled successfully.

After the complete installation of the operating system, now we need to make sure that you can login to server via root as username. If your server providing company has sent you username as root then direct add IP to PuTTY username as root hit enter and password then enter. Now we;re logged in as root into our dedicated server and now can proceed to Xtream UI IPTV Panel installation.

To install Xtream UI Admin UI, we need mirrors which make auto install for the Xtream UI installation script. Pls visit any of the mirror links bellow and there you need to copy scripts provided by them.

Xtream UI Installation Mirrors

There are 2 official mirrors still available for the installation files of the panel. Here is list of all available mirrors for the Xtream UI.

apt-get update ; apt-get install libxslt1-dev libcurl3 libgeoip-dev python -y ; wget https://lofertech.com/xui/install.py ; sudo python install.py

https://honey-panel.github.io/mirrors.html

https://github.com/emre1393/xtreamui_mirror

Installation Script

Pls copy the commands from any of above mirrors, make sure if there are many mirrors you need to copy 1 command not all. Let’s say we’re choosing following one, copy following command and on PuTTY right click to paste and hit enter to run.

apt-get update ; apt-get install libxslt1-dev libcurl3 libgeoip-dev python -y ; wget https://lofertech.com/xui/install.py ; sudo python install.py

After this you can keep running command sudo python install.py to get installation menu again.

After command process you’ll see following output:

TIP: In this menu, MAIN is core files installation for the panel, Update means updating your main panel to R22F version and LB goes for loadbalancer (an extra dedicated server for streams or VOD).

Now we need to go for MAIN, so type MAIN and hit enter, It will now ask to confirm type Y and hit enter and it will start installing core files of panel. The next stop will be at asking you for MySQL databases removal (make it Yes if you tried few other mirrors already to install the panel) or MySQL root password: Type any random password, hit enter then type Y and hit enter again to continue installation, so the end here is going to be like:

Installation completed!

Now your Xtream UI admin panel has been successfully installed, you need to apply following commands in order to make your panel professionally running. The new mirror does panel update automatically.

Configure

Upon first install, the script install the beta version that is available with very limited options which is Xtream UI R22E – Early Access but we need need to upgrade it to Xtream UI R22F – Early Access so we can access premium features. The owners of CMS suggested all users to upgrade to their most recent and free 22F beta version.

Update Xtream UI:

You can update on mirror by using UPDATE button or can do it manually by updating Xtream UI R22E – Early Access to Xtream UI R22F – Early Access run following command:

apt-get install unzip e2fsprogs python-paramiko -y ; rm -rf /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/admin ; rm -rf /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/pytools ; wget "https://lofertech.com/xui/update.zip" -O /tmp/update.zip -o /dev/null ; unzip /tmp/update.zip -d /tmp/update/ ; cp -rf /tmp/update/XtreamUI-master/* /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/

After this must run following commands:

rm -rf /tmp/update/XtreamUI-master ; rm /tmp/update.zip ; rm -rf /tmp/update ; sudo chmod +x /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/nginx/sbin/nginx ; sudo chmod +x /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/nginx_rtmp/sbin/nginx_rtmp ; sudo chattr -i /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/GeoLite2.mmdb ; sudo wget -q https://lofertech.com/xui/GeoLite2.mmdb -O /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/GeoLite2.mmdb ; chattr +i /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/GeoLite2.mmdb ; /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/start_services.sh

BEFORE UPDATE:

xtream ui version R22E

xtream ui version R22E

AFTER UPDATE:

xtream ui version R22F

xtream ui version R22F

GeoLite2.mmdb update – Fix Streams not running solution:

The file called GeoLite2.mmdb goes crashed upon starting up the panel and this cause streams not playing on your devices like VLC. Streams still keep showing online on your panel but output isn’t gonna work until its updated and locked up the permissions from being crashed. Run following commands to update and lock the file from further deletion.

sudo chattr -i /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/GeoLite2.mmdb && sudo wget -q https://lofertech.com/xui/GeoLite2.mmdb -O /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/GeoLite2.mmdb && sudo chattr +i /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/GeoLite2.mmdb

The error occurs due to re installing or re-configuring MySQL. So the simple solution is re install the main using our source, it will uninstall MySQL and re install it again. Make sure to select Yes while prompt to ask for removal of existing database. You can take your backup first.

Fixing servers_checker File:

If you’ve run above commands on this page, use following command:

sudo cp servers_checker.php servers_checker.php.orgl && rm servers_checker.php && wget https://lofertech.com/xui/servers_checker.php && sudo /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/start_services.sh

If you’re new user here to fix this issue, run following command:

cd /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/crons/ && sudo cp servers_checker.php servers_checker.php.orgl && rm servers_checker.php && wget https://lofertech.com/xui/servers_checker.php && sudo /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/start_services.sh

Fixing PID Monitor:

wget "https://lofertech.com/xui/pid_monitor.zip" -O /tmp/pid_monitor.zip -o /dev/null ; unzip /tmp/pid_monitor.zip -d /tmp/pid_monitor ; cp -rf /tmp/pid_monitor/* /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/crons/ ; rm -rf /tmp/pid_monitor/ ; rm /tmp/pid_monitor.zip

Fix EPG Cron Not Working:

First, backup original Cron file:

cp /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/crons/epg.php /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/crons/epg_bak.php

Now run this:

wget "https://lofertech.com/xui/epg-fix.ph" -O /tmp/epg.php -o /dev/null;sudo rm -rf /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/crons/epg.php; sudo cp /tmp/epg.php /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/crons/; chown -R xtreamcodes:xtreamcodes /home/xtreamcodes/; rm /tmp/epg.php;

Now run this to force update EPG:

sudo /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/php/bin/php /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/crons/epg.php

Make servers auto online after reboot:

By default the panel and server aren’t setup to start the panel automatically if server is rebooted. You must need to apply following steps in order to make panel always working even you reboot the server. Run following commands to run panel automatically after reboot.

Run command

sudo nano /etc/crontab

this should open up and editable file, in cause you get error

-bash: nano: command not found

run this command

sudo apt-get install nano && sudo nano /etc/crontab

Now be careful here, you do not need to touch any line that is already there ok? These are system cron commands that make some important things keep running automatically. Following is the image of original file to me:

So we just need to add a new rule there, go to end of the file and go on the # and hit enter. It will make space to add a new command there now go into above line and paste following command.

@reboot root /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/start_services.sh

Now Press

CTRL + X

then Y then Enter. it will save this up. To test make a reboot of server and see if panel auto restart upon server back up again. If things don’t work properly, pls leave us a comment bellow. Following is the screenshot of new file with added new rule or auto start Xtream UI panel.

Xtream UI Panel King Command:

The following command is the king command to Xtream UI, if you face any issue anytime over main server or LB you need to login as root and run following command. If there are no issues with server or panel it will make things up shortly or if there are errors with things it will show them up on PuTTY.

/home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/start_services.sh

Line 14, Line 15 Permission Error solution:

The following errors occur when there are invalid permissions for xtreamcodes user.

/home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/start_services.sh: line 14: /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/nginx_rtmp/sbin/nginx_rtmp: Permission denied
/home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/start_services.sh: line 15: /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/nginx/sbin/nginx: Permission denied

The fix is manually change permissions of these files to 777 or run following commands.

sudo chmod +x /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/nginx/sbin/nginx
sudo chmod +x /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/nginx_rtmp/sbin/nginx_rtmp
/home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/start_services.sh

“chown: changing ownership of ‘/home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/GeoLite2.mmdb’: Operation not permitted” solution:

You need to completely ignore this error. The reason is running the command

/home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/start_services.sh

is the reason of this file deletion and if this file is deleted then the streams are not going to play on any device. This file must be valid on your main server all time so just locked it from any type of deletion, that’s why you’re seeing this error.

Still following command is a fix to this:

sed -i 's|chown -R xtreamcodes:xtreamcodes /home/xtreamcodes|chown -R xtreamcodes:xtreamcodes /home/xtreamcodes 2>/dev/null|g' /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/start_services.sh
