Recommended: Docker
For the simplest deployment use the prebuilt Docker image on an amd64/x86-64 host. Docker or Plesk Docker keeps Apache, PHP, Python/Pillow, Java and Android build tools inside the release image.
A practical starting point is:
- amd64/x86-64 host.
- Docker Engine / Docker Compose v2, or Plesk Docker.
- Around 4 GB RAM recommended.
- Stable disk storage for MariaDB and MediaHub data.
- A dedicated HTTPS hostname such as
panel.example.com.
Alternative: native Ubuntu
The native package supports Ubuntu Server 24.04 LTS amd64 with root or sudo access. It installs Apache, PHP 8.3, MariaDB, Python/Pillow, JDK 21 and Android SDK build tools directly on the host.
Not currently supported
Ordinary shared PHP hosting is not a supported Management target. APK generation needs shell execution, Java, Android SDK tools, Python/Pillow and private writable storage that shared hosting often cannot provide.
