[SOLVED] Install troubles

[Elite]

I am trying to install ispcp 1.0.3-1 on my server, debian 5.0.4 lenny.

I am having wicked issues, do I need to install and configure bind9 before attempting to install or are the docs incomplete or what?

[kilburn]

No, you should install ispcp in a clean system (just after installing the OS). Additionally, we can't help you if you don't provide any error messages or something...

[Elite]

it is a clean install, no errors, I removed all that is installed with it, going to retry.

Quote:I am having wicked issues,

Well, a detailed explanation of this wicked issues would help us determine what went wrong...

[Elite]

well I follow the documentation and everything to a "T" and no matter what I cannot get the web interface to come up, do I need to configure bind manually or something?

[kilburn]

What do you get if you directly use the IP (in the address bar of your browser) to connect to the server?

Bind should be automatically configured, as long as the correct zone authority is delegated to your server! (which is something out of ispcp's control)

I get the default "It Works!" apache page when using the IP alone.

I don't understand what you mena about the bind (new to it all.)

Ok, we need more info to diagnose:

1. fqdn of your machine that you used in the installation
2. IP address that you used in the installation
3. http address that you got at the end of the installation process
4. Output of "apache2ctl -S"

Let's see if we can iron this out...

1.) protocolcomputershosting.com
2.) 24.77.218.11
3.)I wasn't actualy given one.
4.) Will get soon!

I gave up trying last night and removed it all, or at least tried to and I removed too much so I need to reimage the server. Once this is done I will reinstall the control panel, and report back.

[Elite]

okay so after the install I have some info!

I can login and do basically everythin I will need to do, however here's my problems:
1. I cannot login to the email no matter what, the Server Status panel shows all email excep POP3-SSL to be working.

2. My ftp server is not working, when I try to start it using /etc/init.d/proftpd start I get the following error:

Code:

protocol:/var/log/proftpd# /etc/init.d/proftpd start
Starting ftp server: proftpd - processing configuration directory '/etc/proftpd/ispcp'
- warning: unable to determine IP address of 'protocol'
- error: no valid servers configured
- Fatal: error processing configuration file '/etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf'
failed!

Any help is appreciated!

Well looks like I didn't need the help after all, I got it all solved, my hostname in my /etc/hosts file was wrong causing it to bug up.
