Tutorial: How To Install XtreamUI in Ubuntu 20.04

A step-by-step guide to running the classic panel on newer OS versions.


⚠️ Important Compatibility Note

Xtream UI was originally built for Ubuntu 18.04. Installing it on Ubuntu 20.04 requires extra steps because Python 2 support was dropped in newer Linux versions. Follow this guide carefully to ensure it works.

1Step 1: Preparing Ubuntu 20.04

Since Ubuntu 20.04 comes with Python 3 by default, and Xtream UI relies on Python 2, we first need to install the legacy Python environment.

Login to your server as root and run these commands:

apt-get update apt-get install python2 apt-get install python-is-python2

This tricks the system into using Python 2 when the installer asks for "python", preventing installation errors.

2Step 2: Installing Dependencies

Next, we need to install specific libraries that might be missing on the newer OS.

apt-get install libxslt1-dev libcurl3 libgeoip-dev python -y

3Step 3: Running the Installer

Now we can download and run the mirror installation script. This script connects to a mirror server since the original official servers are offline.

Copy and paste this command:

wget https://xtream-masters.com/guide/resources.php?file=xui/install.py ; sudo python install.py

During Installation:

  • Select MAIN when the menu appears.
  • Choose Yes to configure MySQL.
  • Set a MySQL password (write it down!).

4Step 4: The Critical Update (R22F)

The installer usually gives you an older version (R22E). You must update to R22F immediately to fix bugs, especially on Ubuntu 20.04.

Run this update block:

apt-get install unzip e2fsprogs python-paramiko -y ; rm -rf /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/admin ; rm -rf /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/pytools ; wget "https://xtream-masters.com/guide/resources.php?file=xui/update.zip" -O /tmp/update.zip -o /dev/null ; unzip /tmp/update.zip -d /tmp/update/ ; cp -rf /tmp/update/XtreamUI-master/* /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/

Then run the cleanup command:

rm -rf /tmp/update/XtreamUI-master ; rm /tmp/update.zip ; rm -rf /tmp/update ; sudo chmod +x /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/nginx/sbin/nginx ; sudo chmod +x /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/nginx_rtmp/sbin/nginx_rtmp ; /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/start_services.sh

5Step 5: Final Fixes

Finally, apply the GeoLite2 fix to ensure your streams work correctly.

sudo chattr -i /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/GeoLite2.mmdb && sudo wget -q https://xtream-masters.com/guide/resources.php?file=xui/GeoLite2.mmdb -O /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/GeoLite2.mmdb && sudo chattr +i /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/GeoLite2.mmdb && sudo /home/xtreamcodes/iptv_xtream_codes/start_services.sh

You can now access your panel at http://your-server-ip:25500.

Does This Feel Complicated?

Forcing old software onto a new OS is risky. Python 2 is deprecated, and security holes are no longer patched. While this guide gets you running, you might face stability issues down the road.

Why struggle with patches? Our Xtream-Masters IPTV Admin Panel runs natively on Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04 without any hacks. It installs in 2 minutes and is built for modern security standards.
