Thanks for this new first stable release of ISPConfig 3! Hi Till, This is the moment i've been waiting for! Thank you for the nice work, i really apreaciate it! I will install this new version on my two brand new servers.
thank you, i have been waiting for the stable release. i have my linux server ready. can't wait to install it. Good Job Guys!! UPDATE: i wanted to update my post here to congratulate you for a job well done. i successfully installed ISPConfig 3.0.1 on a Fedora 9.
I was running FC4 for a really long time and it was just time to upgrade do to the lack of support i have a current OS that I did install ispconfig 2 on I would like to put ispconfig 3 what is the best way to go about doing that. I have looked around have not found anything if its out there can you just point me in the right direction thanks.
Till, Thanks for getting ISPConfig 3 up and running! My dumb question is that the install says to not install ISPConfig 3 on a server running ISPConfig 2. Well, how do I install ISPConfig 3 if I only have one server, and that server is running ISPConfig 2??? Can I uninstall ISPConfig 2, then install ISPConfig 3? Then setup the webs and users, copy over their websites?? Thanks, Danté
ISPConfig 3 is not an update for ISPConfig 2. ISPConfig 3 is a multi server control panel with virtual mail and FTP users which has different system requirements then ISPConfig 2. So you can not update a ISPConfig 2 system with ISPConfig 3 without formatting the server harddisk and do a complete reinstall of the operating system as described in the ISPConfig 3 documentation. The perfect setup guides for ISPConfig 2 are not compatible with ISPConfig 3.
The ISPConfig 3 installation instructions are in the ispconfig 3 tar.gz file and downloadable on ispconfig.org. ISPConfig 2 installations can not be updated with ISPConfig 3 as described in the release notes.
But isn't it possible to uninstall ISPConfig 2 first and then install ISPConfig 3? The server is able to run without ISPConfig so to uninstall it would not be a problem. Right? I'm running ISPConfig 2 for a couple of weeks now and I really see the potential of the system. It works perfectly! Though, I am very interested in the new version to prevent the creation of real users. Virtual users will be better.
>> Update Please choose the update method. For production systems select 'stable'. The update from svn is only for development systems and may break your current setup. Select update method (stable,svn) [stable]: stable Unable to retrieve version file. Any idea what is wrong with it ?
Seems as if your server is not able to do a direct http request to ispconfig.org to download the version file. You can use the manual update method instead that is described at the end of the release notes.
No, this wont work as ispconfig 3 requires different software and a different configuration then ispconfig 2. If you want to switch to ispconfig 3, make a backup of you sites and databases, format the server and reinstall it as described in the ispconfig 3 instructions.
Ye well... after downloading the file... ┌─[root@ib3x] └─(/tmp)-> cd ispconfig3_install ┌─[root@ib3x] └─(/tmp/ispconfig3_install)-> php -q update.php Could not open input file: update.php ┌─[root@ib3x] └─(/tmp/ispconfig3_install)-> ls -all skupno 48 drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 mar 24 17:40 . drwxrwxrwt 5 root root 4096 mar 24 22:35 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2628 nov 9 2007 CODING_NOTES.php.txt drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 mar 24 17:40 config drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 mar 24 17:40 docs drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 mar 24 17:40 helper_scripts drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 mar 24 17:40 install drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 mar 24 17:40 interface drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 mar 24 17:40 remoting_client drwxr-xr-x 13 root root 4096 mar 24 17:40 server -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2513 nov 17 18:01 TODO.txt Seems like there is no update.php at all...
Ok, I understand. As I recently just reinstalled my server I will be happy with ISPConfig 2 for now. Also the noice of my 1U server, during the recovery, was killing me It's better located among the other servers. Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much for this great work Just now, i start to install with falko's howto Lenny and ISPConfig. I think, early morning evrything is ready to re-open my site. Thank you very much for this great work. Wish you all the best for future. Regards: Colossus
Great! I have a new VPS and was going to install ISPconfig 3 RC, but now I can try stable version! Interesting is the option of support for multiple server, but I have not clear if there will be plugins like in version 2... "Danke" for the great work!
Till, I've got a good question that many people will be interested about. I understand there is no way to upgrade from ISPConfig2 to ISPConfig3 due to big architecture changes. Did you design the new ISPConfig3 future-proof? Do you think it will be easy to upgrade to ISPConfig4, in the future?
Otherwise we would have stayd with ISPConfig 2. ISPConfig 2 was state of the art as it was written 10 years ago. Who will know if ISPConfig 3 is state of the art in 10 years and who knows how servers are configured then (virtualisation, cloud computing etc.).
