How to install Pterodactyl on Swayfloat

Step 1/1

Setup the ubuntu subsystem, please refer to the swayfloat manual on how to set it up, and then enter it's shell to continue this guide.

Step 2/1

bash <(curl https://pterodactyl-installer.se)

- type in your domain/subdomain, for me it's testpanel.swayfloat.cloud
- no ufw
- HTTPS using Let's Encrypt? type n
- Assume SSL? type y
- agree HTTPS request? type n

##############################################################
* Hostname/FQDN: sub.domain
* Configure Firewall? false
* Configure Let's Encrypt? false
* Assume SSL? true
##############################################################
    

Step 3/1

openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout /2.pem -out /1.pem -subj "/CN=localhost"
sed -i 's|^\s*ssl_certificate\s\+.*|    ssl_certificate /1.pem;|' /etc/nginx/sites-available/pterodactyl.conf
sed -i 's|^\s*ssl_certificate_key\s\+.*|    ssl_certificate_key /2.pem;|' /etc/nginx/sites-available/pterodactyl.conf
sed -i 's/\b443\b/8443/g; s/\b80\b/8000/g' /etc/nginx/sites-available/pterodactyl.conf
systemctl restart nginx
    

no output is OK

Step 4/1 - Cloudflare Tunnel

Go to one.dash.cloudflare.com

• Network → Tunnels → Create Tunnel
• Select cloudflared, name it whatever you want
• Choose Debian → click under "If you don’t have cloudflared installed on your machine"
• Paste the copied install command into the VPS shell
• Then click under "After you have installed cloudflared on your machine, you can install a service to automatically run your tunnel whenever your machine starts"
• Again, Paste the copied install command into the VPS shell.
• Now click next, use the same subdomain Enter Your Subdomain
• Service Type: https
• Service URL: localhost:8443
• Additional Settings → TLS → enable "No TLS Verify"
• Click save hostname

Go to https://sub.domain (or whatever your subdomain is) and check if it works.

if it works; Congrats, You've setup the panel properly.

Step 1/2 (Wings)

• Do step 1 again, but select 1 this time
• Say y to "Unsupported type of virtualization"
• n to UFW, DB user, Let's Encrypt
• Refer to step 4, but in Cloudflare: tunnel name → edit → public hostnames → add new
• Use the node subdomain enter your subdomain)
• Service URL: localhost:443
• Additional Settings → TLS → enable "No TLS Verify"
• it's wings setup time

Step 2/2 (Still Wings)

• Login to panel
• Admin → Locations → Create one (for me: US1)
• Admin → Nodes → Add node (name it whatever)
• Daemon Port: 443
• SSL: Not Behind Proxy
• Use the node subdomain as the FQDN (for me: node.domain)
• Copy config token and run the command as usual

If panel and node are on different hosts:

openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout /2.pem -out /1.pem -subj "/CN=localhost"
sed -i 's|^\(\s*cert:\s*\).*|\1/1.pem|' /etc/pterodactyl/config.yml
sed -i 's|^\(\s*key:\s*\).*|\1/2.pem|' /etc/pterodactyl/config.yml
systemctl restart wings
    

If panel and node are on the same host:

sed -i 's|^\(\s*cert:\s*\).*|\1/1.pem|' /etc/pterodactyl/config.yml
sed -i 's|^\(\s*key:\s*\).*|\1/2.pem|' /etc/pterodactyl/config.yml
systemctl restart wings
    

See if there is a green heart, if yes; congrats, you've setup wings properly.
