update from vhcs

[memic]

hi,

i followed http://www.isp-control.net/documentation...grade/vhcs
for the upgrade process, so far everythings fine, but i get this:

Starting Installation...
useradd: UID 2000 is not unique
ERROR: External command '/usr/sbin/useradd -d /var/www/fcgi/master -m -c vu-master -g vu2000 -s /bin/false -u 2000 vu2000' returned '4' status !

sure this user already exist since the previous installation is still there?

is the install script broken in case there is a old vhcs2 installation?

It seems that the howto is wrong. You don't have to install ispcp, just run ispcp-update (the following step), which will let you choose vhcs as the source version to update from.

I have changed it in the howto, it would be nice if somebody else could confirm that it is working now. (I have never upgraded from VHCS.)

I wanted to confirm that the howto works.

I did an upgrade from Debian 3.1 (Sarge) and VHCS 2.4.7.1 to Debian Etch and ISPCP-RC5 and it worked fine.

Hello,
I did an upgrade from Debian 3.1 (Sarge) and VHCS 2.4.7.1 to Debian Etch and ISPCP-RC5 - but the upgrade did not work with the english howto.
After running the ispcp-setup the ispcp-update was running without errors.

The frensh howto with the 8 steps works fine - I adapted the english one...

After migration from vhcs, the default language is "unknown" everywhere.

Found this in "vhcs2.4.7-ispcp.sql":
-- English Translation is up to date after install
-- DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `lang_English`;

Yes, the lang_English is installed by "ispc-setup", but overwritten by the old table form vhcs2 by the "ispc-update".

May be it is a good idea to drop the `lang_English` too and reinstall the "good" `lang_English` form ispc later in the script?

thats it..

seems that my mysql root passwort is wrong which is used in the install script..
i removed the mysql root password since there have been errors in the mysql log
(yes its a lokal test machine ). seems like the password for the database is not read
correct from the vhcs2.conf file? after this the database was created and copied.
maybe its because i tried to INSTALL first? maybe the db password was f***ed up there?

i will see if this works now..

Yes, this doc was changed. The migration will not work without the new part 7!
Your problem looks like database problems as you decribed.
I testet the mig. with debian and it worked fine.

But there still is a flaw in language migration in RC5. You should adapt the changes that are fixed in RC6 by now.

well yes, than im back at the beginning point 6 quits cause i alredy have the user with the id 2000.

Hi memic,
figure out how many vu2xxx you have byt typing something like
grep vu2 /etc/passwd | sort
You could try to set in /etc/ispcp/ispcp.conf the parameter
APACHE_SUEXEC_MIN_UID = 2000 to the max number +1 of your installed vu2xxxx users and the run ispcp-setup.
