First of all, Siberian CMS is a self-hosted platform. That means you must have a web hosting, and it has to meet the requirements to install Siberian CMS correctly.
The installation, step by step
Installation of Siberian CMS on a VestaCP
Unzip the installation zip file. There is just one small index.php file, it is normal, all the files needed to install Siberian will be downloaded from our servers to your server thanks to this file. Connect to your hosting panel:
To create the webspace for Siberian, click on 
in the “Web” section:
Then click on “Advanced options” and tick “Additional FTP” to create a ftp access to the webspace:
Finally, click on

Now that your webspace is created, you will have to change some PHP Settings. First, click on 
> 
in the “httpd Web server” section > 
:
- “memory_limit“: Set it to 512M
- “max_execution_time“: Set it to 120
- “post_max_size“: Set it to 100M
- “upload_max_filesize“: Set it to 100M

Click on

:
Type the name, the user and the password, then click on
To upload index.php in the webspace, we will use FileZilla:
To connect to your webspace, use the FTP you just created. The “Host” is the IP address of your server. Leave the port as default (blank).
Delete all of the files in the folder “public_html” on the right (it’s the webspace).
Find index.php on the left (it’s your computer) and drag it to the right in the “public_html” folder:
