It involves two aspects - launching the app from SSH console, and then linking to the the VHost/Website URL end point. Lets go step by step on it.

Step 1 : Log into N99panel. From under N99panel dashboard, click 'List Users'

Step 2 : You will see the list of all the users. Please click 'Manage SSHD/CronD' link against the appropriate user

Step 3 : Now choose 'Full SSHD mode with Python'. With this you get the maximum command set which includes python3 and pip3 binaries along with git and other useful command set.

When you click 'Submit', upon successful job execution, the SSHD daemon would restart, and its host signature would change from what it was earlier. This implies that when you try to connect via SSH, you will get a warning for the same, and that you need to appropriately handle at your end.

Step 4 : SSH using to the VPS using the above user's credentials

Step 5 : Change over to directory/folder python_apps . If it is not created, please create it manually. python_apps folder is also used when you have to later launch your app in production mode

Assuming you are /home/user folder, please run the below command to create python_apps folder, if it does not exist.

mkdir python_apps

Now change into python_apps folder

cd python_apps

Step 6 : From within this folder add/create your python project as you would normally do. Below we illustrate with specific examples for Flask, Django and Generic modes

Flask

mkdir flask-project
cd flask-project
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

Running the last command with activate the virtual environment, proceeding further

pip install flask
pip install gunicorn

You you can upload/write your Flask app and fire it up using gunicorn, but here I will showcase an example using the hello world app - refer https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/2.3.x/quickstart/

Below code is saved to hello.py

flask import Flask app = Flask(__name__) @app.route("/") def hello_world(): return "<p

Hello, World!</p>"

Now to fire our flash app, we use gunicorn

gunicorn -b 0.0.0.0:8000 -w 4 --forwarded-allow-ips='172.16.26.1' hello:app

To run it in background, we append & to the above command

gunicorn -b 0.0.0.0:8000 -w 4 --forwarded-allow-ips='172.16.26.1' hello:app &
