1. Get a license: purchase a Synconix Hosting Manager license from my.synconix.com/store/synconix. Your key will look like shm-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX (16 alphanumerics).
2. Download the installer:
   curl -sO https://download.synconix.com/install
3. Run the installer as root:
   bash install --license=shm-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
   

   Optional channel: --channel=stable|release|beta (default: stable)

What the installer does (behind the scenes)

• Strict & safe: runs with set -euo pipefail; validates your license format (shm-[A-Za-z0-9]{16}) and channel (stable, release, beta).
• Preps the system: enables CRB, installs EPEL, then installs required packages: gcc, make, curl, tar, libyaml/libyaml-devel, libpng/libpng-devel, oniguruma/oniguruma-devel, libicu, libxslt, libzip, letsencrypt, certbot, python3-certbot-nginx.
• Fetches version info: reads version.yaml from the selected channel and determines the exact release to install.
• Deploys SHM: downloads shm-<channel>-<version>.tar.gz to /opt/shm, extracts it, and removes the archive.
• Hands off to PHP payload: the shell script self-extracts and executes the bundled PHP installer to complete setup.
• Logs everything: all output goes to /root/install.log (you can tail -f /root/install.log while it runs).
