    Hello,

    I was told to buy a VPS in order to access SSH on my web host. But because I bought the VPS from a third party, they wont give me the support I need, which is understandable. I want to install Composer onto my cPanel but need to do this via SSH. Is it possible to access my web hosts cPanel via my VPS? Or will I need to host the website on my VPS?

    Thanks!

    Do you wish to access a individual cPanel account via SSH ?

    You will need to buy a cPanel license for your VPS and install that first, then host the website on your VPS and then install Composer. Let me know if you need any more help.

    You should ask your hosting provider to install Composer. Also if you have full root access to your vps, you can install Composer on your vps yourself.
