Hello Community, today I tried to update my Ispconfig 3 software via the webinterface. After a couple of minutes Ispconfig was down ... meaning the webinterface was not reachable, however, all services are started. Then I tried a manual update using the "ispconfig_update.sh" which is where I got the error Code: Notice: Undefined variable: conf in /tmp/ispconfig3_install/install/update.php on line 76 the setup has been running for 2 months smoothly and I looked into the update.php and saw that in the beginning the variable conf gets the hostname info and my hostname and hostname -f have the same output if thats important ... any thoughts how to solve this ? I have read a thread saying that uninstall.php and then running install.php might help, but does that delete the sites that were created by ispconfig? Because that would give me a ton of work, however, if there is no other way its possible too. thanks, GerminatoR //edit I have noticed my ispconfig.vhost and ispconfig.conf in /etc/apache2/sites-available are empty .. maybe thats the problem? If it is, what do I have to put in there to make it work?
i have the same problem and also don't know how to resolve this... i tried uninstall.php but it hangs! also /usr/local/ispconfig/server/lib/config.inc.php is empty? is there a way to do a forced reinstall/update?
@germinator: Have you created a backup before you updated? http://www.faqforge.com/linux/controlpanels/ispconfig3/how-to-update-ispconfig-3/ Do not run uninstall.php, it will remove your setup and all config. I recommend to install updates always on the shell by running the "ipconfig_update.sh" script as described in the release notes. To fix your setup, please take a look into the file /usr/local/ispconfig/server/lib/config.inc.php and check if its empty. @atran: Thats not good as the uninstall script is made to clean a system and permamnently remove ispconfig, so everything configured in ispconfig gets lost. That depends in which step the unistall hanged. Most likely all information that is nescessary to do a upgarde might be lost due to the unstall run. Do you have a backup?
i fixed it! First i quickly install a new installation (doesn't had backups yet). Then copied over the "/usr/local/ispconfig/server/lib/config.inc.php" to the first server. Also changed the mysql password in "/usr/local/ispconfig/server/lib/config.inc.php" to be the same as in "/usr/local/ispconfig/interface/lib/config.inc.php" (which wasn't empty). then i download the latest stable version and unpacked it to /tmp. Then run "php -q update.php" (from folder /tmp/ispconfig3_install/install/). btw. the uninstall hangs right after the ispconfig logo art.
