Hey,

I want transfer site from Cpanel to Sentora panel, I can't do it manually because the site is too big..
Is there another way do it? also how I can log to the site that created by Sentora via ssh.. what's the path exactly?

Thanks
Greetings @[Essam],
The sentora public_html directory is by default at /var/sentora/hostdata/USERNAME/public_html/
USERNAME should be zadmin if you are using the main account.

Regarding the website transfer from CPanel, your best course of action would be to compress the full public_html (or www) folder on CPanel, download it (as it«s just one file it would be much faster and easier.
Than go to phpMyAdmin (on CPanel) and export the database (or databases) that your website uses.

Now on Sentora upload the compressed file to the public_html directory, extract the files (use the ssh command tar -xzf filename or use a module for that (for ex. extplorer 3rd party module for sentora or Net2Ftp 3rd party module for Sentora).

Go to DataBase Manager On Sentora and create the same databases and users you had on Cpanel (you might need to update your website database connection credentials), after this, login to phpMyAdmin on Sentora and import the previously exported mysql files.

Should work like this, and I do not see an easier way.
Thank you very much Apinto
