What are the System requirements for ISPProtect?

ISPProtect requires PHP (command line PHP) on the server, PHP versions from 5.3 to 7.4 are supported. The first Scan-Level uses the ClamAV Scan engine with our malware signatures plus the ClamAV antivirus signatures, so ClamAV has to be installed as well. Most web servers have PHP already installed. If you are unsure if your server has PHP, run the command:

php -v

it will return the PHP version when PHP is already installed, otherwise it will return „command not found“.
