Problem with install - no /var/www/ispcp - jim.thornton - 07-31-2009 12:42 PM

I've just installed a new CentOS 5.3 server in my VM.

The server is configured and nearest that I can tell everything seems to be working correctly. I have gone through the steps of the "HowtoForge" guide that was linked to on the installation page.

For some reason, when I get to this command:
Code:
chown apache:apache /var/www/ispcp/gui/tools/webmail/data
I get the following response:
Code:
chown: cannot access `/var/www/ispcp/gui/tools/webmail/data': No such file or directory
I further investigated this and noticed that there was NO directory "ispcp" under the /var/www directory.

I don't know what I have done wrong because I have followed the steps.

(I did skip one step and that is installing courier-mta because the HowToForge guide had already installed Dovecot). I have double and triple checked to make sure that i didn't miss any other steps.

Can someone please help me? I'm so close to the end and would like to get this installed to test.

Your are in step 9 from the installation guide on our documentation page, while step 5 is:
Quote:5. Copy all the directories into the system

We recommand you to make a backup of your current system state.
Code:
# cp -RLf /tmp/ispcp/* /
# cp -Rv /tmp/ispcp/etc/init.d /etc/rc.d/
# ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d /etc/init.d
# mkdir /var/mail/virtual

The first command here must have created the "/var/www/ispcp", or otherwise failed miserably for some reason. Repeat this and show us the error if there's any...

You are correct. I caught that late last night and was going to post this mornging.

I check 3 times that I didn't miss any steps. I left, came back and hour later and checked a 4th time and noticed that I missed step 5.

Thank you.
