I'm pretty new to this ISPConfig, but I've got it up and running on Fedora Core 4, and I''ve got a test site entered in with a user setup and everything. I can't seem to access the site though. I've tried: http://mysite.com/users/web1_username/index.html http://mysite.com/~web1_username/index.html http://mysites_ip/users/web1_username/index.html http://mysites_ip/~web1_username/index.html And they all give me 404's. if I visit just http://mysite.com I get the Apache Test Page - is that supposed to happen? When I restart the httpd process I get this warning which I know has something to do with the problem, I just don't know how to fix it: Code: Starting httpd: [Tue Jun 13 15:43:06 2006] [warn] NameVirtualHost 70.54.180.143:80 has no VirtualHosts How do I configure my site's preview?

I tried taking out the second one, it does remove the warning, but does nothing for my original problem. (ip address hidden with x's ... there's actual numbers there IRL) Code: ################################### # # ISPConfig vHost Configuration File # Version 1.0 # ################################### # NameVirtualHost 70.x.x.x:80 <VirtualHost 70.x.x.x:80> ServerName localhost ServerAdmin root@localhost DocumentRoot /var/www/sharedip </VirtualHost> NameVirtualHost 70.x.x.x:80 <VirtualHost 70.x.x.x:80> ServerName localhost ServerAdmin root@localhost DocumentRoot /var/www/sharedip </VirtualHost> # # # ###################################### # Vhost: www.mysite.com:80 ###################################### # # <VirtualHost 70.x.x.x:80> ServerName www.mysite.com:80 ServerAdmin [email protected] DocumentRoot /home/www/web1/web ServerAlias 2hotnsexy.com DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php index.php5 index.php4 index.php3 index.shtml index.cgi index.pl index.jsp Default.htm default.htm ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/www/web1/cgi-bin/ AddHandler cgi-script .cgi AddHandler cgi-script .pl ErrorLog /home/www/web1/log/error.log AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .php5 <Files *.php> SetOutputFilter PHP SetInputFilter PHP </Files> <Files *.php3> SetOutputFilter PHP SetInputFilter PHP </Files> <Files *.php4> SetOutputFilter PHP SetInputFilter PHP </Files> <Files *.php5> SetOutputFilter PHP SetInputFilter PHP </Files> php_admin_flag safe_mode On php_admin_value open_basedir /home/www/web1/ php_admin_value file_uploads 1 php_admin_value upload_tmp_dir /home/www/web1/phptmp/ php_admin_value session.save_path /home/www/web1/phptmp/ AddType text/html .shtml AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml Alias /error/ "/home/www/web1/web/error/" ErrorDocument 400 /error/invalidSyntax.html ErrorDocument 401 /error/authorizationRequired.html ErrorDocument 403 /error/forbidden.html ErrorDocument 404 /error/fileNotFound.html ErrorDocument 405 /error/methodNotAllowed.html ErrorDocument 500 /error/internalServerError.html ErrorDocument 503 /error/overloaded.html AliasMatch ^/~([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/www/web1/user/$1/web/$3 AliasMatch ^/users/([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/www/web1/user/$1/web/$3 </VirtualHost> # #
That solves one problem. I now get the proper 'shared ip' page. However it seems Apache is still ignoring my ispconfig vhosts file. When I visit http://70.x.x.x/~web3_admin It gives me a 404 and I check the apache error logs I see: [Wed Jun 14 11:59:18 2006] [error] [client 192.168.128.1] File does not exist: /var/www/sharedip/~web3_admin
You can never use your IP address to connect to a website cretaed in ISPConfig. ISPConfig uses nambased vhosts. Use the domain instaed of the IP address!
Am I misunderstanding the purpose of these lines in the vhosts file? Code: AliasMatch ^/~([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/www/web3/user/$1/web/$3 AliasMatch ^/users/([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/www/web3/user/$1/web/$3 I'd very much like to preview sites before I switch nameservers over - rather than switching them over risk having compatibility issues when migrating. Even for showing new customers before their domain has propagated.
These lines are for the user website feature. See user manual (client) chapter 2.2.9 Then you have to add the domain with the correct IP to the hosts file on your workstation, thats possible on windows and linux.
That's a lot of work for clients to do. I've used some trickery in the httpd.conf and in the .htaccess of the sharedip folder to accomplish what I wanted. Does ISPConfig ever rewrite the httpd.conf file? If so where can I find the script that does it?
It rewrites the Vhosts_ispconfig.conf. But you can use your own directives using the Apache Directives field in ISPConfig. Have a look at the function make_vhost() in /root/ispconfig/scripts/lib/config.lib.php.
