Easy-Wi can be installed on pretty much all web servers that support PHP and provide a MySQL or compatible database. Because Platform is independent, the web interface could also be installed on a web space running on Windows.
The software is being tested on the current stable releases of Debian, Ubuntu and CentOS.
A current version of PHP is needed. Requires 5.5 or newer, 7 including. On Ubuntu, Debian or CentOS the following extension is needed:
- php-common
- php-curl
- php-gd
- php-mcrypt
- php-mysql
- php-cli
- php-xml
- php-mbstring
- php-zip
In addition, the following enhancements are required on CentOS 7 or later:
- libsodium-devel
Every halfway current MySQL or MariaDB is supported. From this, a UTF-8 compatible database must be provided.
In the best case, the webspace should support cronjobs. This is not mandatory, as the PHP scripts can also be called by an external server, which controls cronjobs. The latter, however, may be error prone.
The installation script, which can install and install all the components mentioned here, supports Debian 8 and newer, Ubuntu 16.04 and newer as well as CentOS 7 and newer.
For safety reasons it is recommended to use the latest stable or LTS versions Debian 9, Ubuntu 18.04 or CentOS 7.
If you want to use another os distribution, you have to set up the master user and order manually.
Most Linux distributions are supported.
An essential part of the Game Server module is the FTP access. Since other web interfaces often nestle deeply in the system and adjust the FTP configuration continuously, compatibility is not given. In particular, Plesk or Onix should be mentioned here, which provide ProFTPd with their own software and make incompatible changes to the configurations.
Most Linux distributions are supported.
The user under which the TS3 server was installed must be able to use the Bash shell for Easy-Wi to be able to restart the Deamon if necessary. Similarly, the access is used for bash scripts that manage the backups.
Most Linux distributions are supported.
Default configurations are available for Apache2 and Lighttpd. By customizing the templates, other HTTP servers like the Hiawatha can be used. The only requirement is that the HTTP server supports Virtual VHosts.
Supported are MySQL and compatible servers like MariaDB. The operating system on which the server has been installed is irrelevant, since the management is done using SQL.
Easy-Wi is a comprehensive Web Interface and CMS. It does not matter if it is a Game Server, Voice Server, TSDNS Server, Webspace or MYSQL Databases, everything can be managed with just a few mouse clicks.
Another focus is automation. Forms are prefilled with the optimal values. As a rule, it is sufficient to always click on "continue". Furthermore, servers are automatically monitored and possibly traded. Manual reboots, or exhorting customers, are a thing of the past with Easy-Wi.
The future lies in the cloud and linked heterogeneous system landscapes. For this reason, Easy-Wi offers a REST API and can use external APIs, such as the Steam API. Easy-Wi can be integrated into existing shops or user clouds through its REST API. The complete freedom of design of the templates makes it possible to preserve the corporate identity.

Easy-wi works with so-called symlinks. This means that most of the files are only linked and the user only exists as a link. The single Game Server consists of all folders, the symlinks and the files that the user should be able to edit. Files that can be edited are e.g. .cfg, .ini, .txt and the like.
The use of symlinks has many advantages:
- A server is created within seconds. The same applies to the start of protection mode.
- Updates need to be recorded centrally only once per root server.
- If there are problems with server software you can solve them centrally and do not have to edit every customer installation.
- A bare server installation is about 1 megabyte in size. Therefore, you have a significant space savings.
- The user only sees the files, which concern him some. In this way he can do less damage by technical ignorance.
The files for Game Server, Maps and Addons are stored and kept in the master directories only once per root server. The folder structure is always the same:
masteraddons/
- css-eslplugin/
- metamod/
-- addons/metamod/
- sourcemod/
-- addons/sourcemod/
mastermaps/
- css-eslmaps/
-- maps/
masterserver/
- css/
- dods/
- cod4/The folder structure is uniform on the customer side. Each server gets its own user. This also if the customer has multiple servers on a root server. For each game and port, the customer has 3 templates or installations between which he can switch back and forth. The additional templates are only installed when the user starts it for the first time.
The Absolute Path is always: /home/username-ServerID/server/Game-Shortcuts-Template/
Using the example of an installation with the games Counter-Strike: Source and Call of Duty 4 you would theoretically have 6 installations to choose from, from which you can start. However, only the primary installation is created. For the example, suppose that the server from the customer ''customerxy'' exists with the ServerID 12. Furthermore, he has the Template 2 for CSS sporadically in use. After an installation, the folder structure would then look like this:
/home/customerxy-12/server/css/
/home/customerxy-12/server/css-2/
/home/customerxy-12/server/cod4/
