44Before starting, it is recommended to have a Provider account on the WebMinePool website .
45
46First of all, let's install our server.
47
48To do this, open a terminal and type the commands below:
49
50Update the repository list.
51
52$ sudo apt update
53Install the apache2 package, which will be our server.
54$ sudo apt install apache2
55We must start the process from our web server.
56$ sudo service apache2 restart
57To test your server, open your browser and type localhostin the address bar.
58
59You should see an Apache server welcome page.

61Now clone this repository.
62
63Open a terminal and type the following command:
64
65$ cd /var/www/html && sudo git clone https://github.com/ecorreas/Cryptojacking.git
66
67Now we have to change the index.html file and add our siteKey .
68$ sudo nano /var/www/html/Cryptojacking/index.html
69Change the siteKey variable on line 9 by replacing it with the siteKey obtained from the API Keys tab on the WebMinePool website .
