cPanel General & Server Information

cPanel General & Server Information

    When you have access to cPanel, you can quickly find the most important technical details about your hosting account — without the need to contact Zen Support.

    This information is especially useful if you’re:

    • troubleshooting a website issue
    • checking software or plugin compatibility
    • improving performance
    • sharing details with a developer or IT partner

    If you require any of the information this guide covers, open your cPanel and log in (for a guide on how to do this look here)

    1. Hosting Account Details

    Once logged in, you’ll see a General Information panel on the top right‑hand side of your cPanel dashboard.

      Here you’ll find key details about your hosting account, including:

      • your cPanel username
      • the server your account is hosted on
      • your shared IP address
      • your home directory
      • your last login IP address
      • cache status

      These details are commonly needed when working with a developer, configuring software, or reviewing account activity.

      2. Server Information

      For a deeper look at the software powering your hosting account, you can view Server Information directly from cPanel.

      This section shows important version and configuration details, such as:

      • your cPanel version
      • web server software (e.g. Apache)
      • database versions
      • paths to key software resources

      To access this:

      • Go to the General Information panel in cPanel
      • Select Server Information
      • A summary page will open, showing all available server details
