⚙️ Configuration

You can edit OV Panel by configuring the .env file to match your environment. This file controls admin credentials, panel settings, SSL options, and developer options.

During installation the installer will prompt for the main values (admin username/password, port path) and populate the .env automatically. Editing the file manually is optional — use these steps if you want to change values after installation:

Open the .env file in a text editor (example):

sudo nano /opt/ov-panel/.env

Make your changes and save the file.
Restart the panel service (example for systemd):

sudo systemctl restart ov-panel

The .env file is located in the root of your installation directory (for example: /opt/ov-panel/.env).

🧾 Example `.env` file

# Admin credentials
ADMIN_USERNAME=admin
ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin

# Panel settings
URLPATH=dashboard
PORT=9000

# SSL settings (optional)
#SSL_KEYFILE=/path/to/keyfile
#SSL_CERTFILE=/path/to/certfile

# Developer options (optional)
#DEBUG=INFO
#DOC=True
