In order for the webserver to be able to server the files, the owner must be set correctly. Note: If you're using FCGID/PHP-Fpm for the Froxlor-Vhost, you have to replace the webserver-user with your local froxlor-user.
chown -R [webserver-user]:[webserver-user] /var/www/froxlor/
(the 'webserver-user' on most systems is 'www-data' or 'apache')
Now that you have extracted all the files you are ready to (re)start the webserver. You should now be able to access froxlor via http://{your-ip-address}/froxlor Just follow the installation-process and froxlor will be installed in no time.
It is very important that you first adjust all settings according to your needs before configuring the services. This is because some configuration-templates/commands change dynamically depending on the settings you chose.
To adjust settings, login as admin and click on 'Settings' in the menu on the left side.
If you now chose to use PHP via FCGID or FPM, then you should also read our fcgid/php-fpm handbooks: @TODO add wiki page link
On of the most important parts of froxlor's setup-process. Froxlor shows you all needed commands and configuration files in the panel. You just have to copy and paste. Note: Please keep in mind that froxlor just facilitates your work, but it cannot think for itself (yet). Please read carefully (you actually just doing that, thanks) and do things slowly.
