We’re using Magento 2.4 with Hestia, PHP 7.4, ElasticSearch, MariaDB 10.5 and NGINX 1.19 only (forget using Apache) on Debian 10.
We installed Hestia: bash hst-install.sh -n yes -w yes -t no -c no -x no -z yes -b yes -i yes -m yes -l en \ -s server.domain.com -e [email protected] -p (password) -a no -k no -o no -v no -k no We don’t use our Hestia server for email so email wasn’t installed.
Install Magento 2.4.2 using as your domain user and choose the Magento template from the Hestia panel. Setup your typical Magento 2.4 optimizations and you’ll have your M2 store running in no time. Under 300ms page load time with the M2 FPC running in production mode is easily obtainable.
Wish we had left our old paid panel and CentOS years ago
