I'm testing and trying ISPConfig 3.0.1.1 I created a client and a site. Now I'm trying to play around. FTP works fine. I can upload files to the site. However, when I ssh to the server and try to close a file with vim I get: E138: Can't write viminfo file /var/www/clients/client1/web2/.viminfo! Looks like a permission problem.
Of course I get this error: drwxr-xr-x 13 root root 4096 apr 7 23:08 web2 But all I tried was to setup a simple site for a testclient. He shouldn't get any errors, right? Anyway, that client can even see the complete server: $ cd / $ ls $ cd /var/www $ ls etc... I guess I have to learn quite a lot. ISPConfig 3 looks like a nice but complicated piece of software.
Rather than start a new thread, I found this one describing my problem exactly. I hope I behaved correctly. I created site, I created FTP user and uploaded files, I created shell user and after editing and saving a file (using vi), I was greeted with: The file is in fact saved as edited, but I get the error message. So I searched and found this thread. After logging off, enabling jailkit for the shell user in ISPCONFIG interface, and then logging in again, I see nothing when performing "ls". Therefore, I disable jailkit for the user, and after logging in again the user can see and edit the files again, but again with the error message. What does this mean? Can I "fix" things so the shell user doesn't get this warning? Thank you, TMC
