Use Virtualmin/Webmin without Apache to use Node.js

Hello,

I am already using Virtualmin (Wordpress website), Now i would like to use Virtualmin Server only for updating OS, SSH server, Webmin Modules. I will move Wordpress site to another server. Can i run Virtualmin without Apache? So that Node.js Application can run without proxy requests from Apache.

Server: Node.js + Virtualmin/Webmin

Usage: Mysql, SSH server, OS updates, Webmin Modules (CSF/LFD), Backups,

Thanks.

Howdy,

Virtualmin actually doesn't need Apache -- it runs on Webmin, which contains a built-in webserver.

In Virtualmin, you can disable the "Apache website" feature in System Settings -> Features and Plugins.

Once you do that, you can disable the Apache service, and then start up the services you're looking to use instead.

I went with Webmin instead of Virtualmin for hosting Node.js Apps and it works fine. :)

I'm new to Virtualmin and I'd like to know the steps to setup Node.js on Webmin.
