    Hello guys. A little bit about the problem. I have my website with custom plugins (engine Wordpress). I were hosting it on Shared hosting and had no problems at all, website grow big, lots of traffic and I decided to move to dedicated server. Took server OS Centos latest version. Installed ZPanel (free control panel), pointed my domains. The problems started when Im trying to install wordpress and add my plugins and theme. One problem after another. I've done it many time on my shared hosting and never had problems.
    I dont know much about dedicated servers, so I used google for solving most of thing....

    After first installation I had white blank pages in admin panel. I removed DB and reinstalled wordpress. After 3 installation it wordpress worked. I installed my plugins. Everything was fine, I made plugin set-up's (most of pages and widgets works on short codes)... when I finished I wanted to see main page if everything was right and found that most short codes not working.... I tried to find the problem and couldnt, as I told before I installed (reinstalled) wordpress with this plugins many times and had no problem at all.

    When I moved to dedicated server problems poping up one after another. Wordpress admin panel not working properly, cant open sometime page quick edit, widgets... After last installation I think I removed most of prolems, but now I have problems with my short codes and I dont know what to do... The only thing on my mind is that maybe something not installed on the dedicated server and thats why its so many problems with wordpress... maybe some settings haven't been set-up....

    So can any one suggest what to do and what it might be?

    Hello there,

    I've not used ZPanel, so I cannot comment on its functionality, but I can suggest that you start taking a look at the error logs for the web server. They will help you to track down the issues. From reading above, I would also suggest looking at your PHP configuration to ensure that the memory_limit value is at least 128mb (I typically set this to 256mb) and make sure that the max_execution_time is set to 30s minimum as well.

    Regards,
    Chris

    Yes, check your error logs first. What is the PHP version? Is mod_security in place? Suhosin, Zend Guard and etc. enabled?

    Your server has:
    - Suhosin v0.9.29
    - mod_rewrite (see loaded modules)
    - Zend Engine v2.3.0

    Just look into your phpinfo (the link you gave us) and use the search function of your browser. If it's listed there (for example search for 'zend' or for 'mod_rewrite') it's installed on your server.
