It is coming up sever1.xxxxx.net, when i first installed it on new machine i misspelled it it suppose to be "server1" not "sever1". i have fixed that after i have installed ISPConfig, on /etc/hosts and /etc/postfix/main.cf

Please help

 

this file had sever1.xxxx.net.. i just changed it server1 and reboot now all good.

Thanks Till

 

I was able to restore everything, but now if i try to add a new site... It will not work...

Vhosts_ispconfig.conf is modified in time, but it doesn't contain any new data...

 

Can you go to the directory where Vhosts_ispconfig.conf is saved and post the output of

Code:

ls -la

?

 

Sorry for such a dumb question Falko, there was already an answer...

Thank you again... Now my ISPconfig is completely moved to a new server.

 

Hi All,

After i move my server all the old site is working fine, but got new problem with creating new site. After I create new site it does not work. I have checked the "Vhosts_ispconfig.conf" file that does have new site information. But another file (Vhosts_ispconfig.conf_30-11-07_18-29-24) has the entry of new site.

When I do "ls -la", I get the followings:

Code:

Guys,

I followed the guide to make a backup of my system for a move to a new server. However, I have a few questions.

Do I need to make a backup of the following mysql databases:
mysql
information_schema

I already have 2 servers running ISPConfig 2.2.11. The main server runs my web/ftp/dns/mysql while the second runs dns as a secondary dns.

The question is that, lets say the main server goes down. Can I use this procedure to restore the backup into the secondary server?

After following the restoring part of the tutorial, would there be any other requirements for me to get the secondary server functioning as if it was the main server?

Please let me know.

Thanks,

Rocky

 

Till,

You are absolutely correct and I will implement rsync. However, I don't have the time to do this as I'm leaving on my vacation.

So for now, I just have to hope that nothing happens while I'm gone. As for data changing, we pretty much have static data so nothing really changes unless we change it.

Having this backup just makes me feel a bit as ease.

Thanks again,


Rocky

 

I've got a little quasion about postfixs transport:

I googled a little bit around to get to know what this line really does.
Everywhere I found the example

Code:

domain.tld smtp:[[I]<IP address of new server>[/I]]
.domain.tld smtp:[[I]<IP address of new server>[/I]]

So I'm a little bit confused which to use.
I want to forward all mails from server A to server B. A and B use the same configuration (same users, uids, guids, webs and so on)

Thanks for the good explanation at the start of this thread!

 

Use the first line if you have email addresses like [email protected]; use the second line if your email addresses look like this: [email protected].

 

[SOLVED] Only half of the PHP pages work

Last nigth I used the quick howto of Falco to move my ISPconfig installation to a new server. (Thanks for this free support!)

After I was done I started testing and found something strange. Some PHP pages where blank, others showed parts php-code and there where pages that just worked.

Also a quick phpinfo page turned out blank.

Today I was playing around with one of the pages that didn't work right. After a while I had a bright idea. I changed <? for <?php in my phpinfo page and it worked. A little googleing tought me that in PHP 5.2.? short tags ar discouraged.

Now I was stuck with lots of pages that didn't work. The easy method would be to change httpd.comf settings to allow short tags, but I desided to figure out how to update all php pages with the right opening tag.

Here is a little script that loops through all the php pages in a directory and replaces <? with <?php.

#!/bin/bash
for fl in *.php; do
mv $fl $fl.old
sed 's/<? /<?php /g' $fl.old > $fl
rm -f $fl.old
done

I found a little drawback when you have both <? and <?php openingtags. I should figure out regular expressions to solve this. So I first ran the script twice, first like this:

#!/bin/bash
for fl in *.php; do
mv $fl $fl.old
sed 's/<?/<?php/g' $fl.old > $fl
rm -f $fl.old
done

and than

#!/bin/bash
for fl in *.php; do
mv $fl $fl.old
sed 's/<?phpphp/<?php /g' $fl.old > $fl
rm -f $fl.old
done

Maybe this script can be the start of a script to run through all the directories in /src/www, but that will be one for another time.

Hope this script can help someone.

Greetz,

Pepo

 

That's useful pepo.
You can also manipulate php_flag short_open_tag Off|On in a .htaccess file to allow execution of php scripts started with <?php or just <?.

 

Hello everyone,

first i would like to state that ISPConfig is a fantastic bit of software.

though i am having some issues with moving to server B

here is my setup

Server A and B both have the same linux version and all software on both is up to date (same versions of mysql, php, ispconfig and so on)

i move everything other all files and databases and it all seams fine, in myphpadmin i look and all the databases are there, when i log into ISPConfig and goto the database section on my of my websites the database section doesnt show up, and then when i log back into myphpadmin and click on one of the databases from that website it then dissapears :S, i have no idea what could be doing thing but its proberly something easy to fix,

 

How did you copy over the ISPConfig database from server A to B?

 

the first time i i just exported all the databases using phpmyadmin and then imported them on server B, though i couldn't add add the missing info out of database 'mysql' because it wouldn't show up, but existed, so to same me some more trouble, i zipped /var/lib/mysql, and then extracted it on server B, and all databases were showing fine until i went into ispconfig and into option of any sites...
