admin.domain: you need a working dns so you can connect to the URL you want.

php: Have you installed the libapache_fastcgi packet?

ok, you donn't want security & performance - but you want mod-php and no multithreading.

ok, maybe a "apache2 -M" brings more light in the dark.

hello joximu
I said from the beginning that i am not an expert in linux and i need your best
advice because you are the expert , so i want what is better like you said, if the
others like mpm-worker and fast-cgi are better then i will take it, and when i
try to install it, it will remove alot of others , but if it is better i don't mind to
install it, i want security & performance it is just me that i don't know which
is better in linux system, so please if you can take sometime to explain step by
step for me what to do to make the server better i will do it, also what to install
and what to remove it will be appreciated also i appreciate all your help,
everything you tell me teach me something new that i learn.
also i installed mpm-worker as soon as i read your reply and i checked to
find "libapache_fastcgi" in debian packages i couldn't find it.
Thanks very much again for your time.

Hi Adel

plase use google to inform about the two possibilities and the pros and cons about

apache with mpm-worker + libapache_fastcgi & suexec for php
vs
apache with mpm-prefork and mod_php

The default installation for ispcp is using fastcgi and mpm-worker.
If you follow exactly the steps in the install guide, you will get this.

If you forget to change the sources.list for aptitude then libapache_fastcgi will not be found. But you can download it separately:
http://packages.debian.org/etch/libapache2-mod-fastcgi

uninstall mpm-prefork and mod-php(4 & 5)

hi joximu again
I download fast-cgi and installed it then i tried to install ispcp again
because it still the same with the login, and now i got to another error:

useradd: cannot create directory /var/www/fcgi/master
ERROR: External command '/usr/sbin/useradd -d /var/www/fcgi/master -m -c vu-master -g vu2000 -s /bin/false -u 2000 vu2000' returned '12' status !
Thanks alot again for your great help.

[joximu]

better you install again, yes. But:
please use reset-setup before (it's in the same folöder as ispcp-setup)

Hi joximu again
I think i will stop this post it is getting too long, so i decide to just install
a fresh debian with netinst , all i need now is: where i can find the install
guide for ispcp on debian ? or it is the install guide is for all of OS ?
I always use the perfect setup for debian and it will install mpm-prefork
& mod-php5 so just take those out of the perfect setup ?
also to start fresh and i know this is basic but just to be in the safe side
if i just put the debian etch 4 in the cdrom isn't going to format the hda
so it will be clean installation ?
Alot of thanks for your help.
