Hi there. I'm new here but I had a question and in need of alot of help. I've installed ISPConfig3, and pre-req's using The PERFECT server with Apache2, and now whenever I goto www.seekanet.com (my domain); it goes directly to my mail? Any ideas on how to fix this? Please no bits and pieces. I am already dumb enough haha! Also: I may edit now that seekanet.com does not even resolve!, and ISPConfig will not let me 'add a site' - everytime I write in the 'server' portion to add one, it just erases what I write
Edit the apache squirrelmail.conf file and comment out the vhost section that you activted there. then restart apache.
Thanks Thank you. I did that. seekanet.com still does not resolve when I dig it, and I'm not sure why but I added the DNS Zone in ISPCOnfig3. ; <<>> DiG 9.8.4-rpz2+rl005.12-P1 <<>> seekanet.com ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 8360 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;seekanet.com.

Most likely the zone is incomplete so that named (bind) rejected it. See /var/log/syslog for named errors.
tail -f /var/log/syslog Aug 28 23:15:05 Thank you again till. I don't see anything that references "named" or even "bind" in the log. I do know that I knew it wasnt going to be easy root@seekanet:/etc/apache2/conf.d# tail -f /var/log/syslog Aug 28 23:15:05 seekanet pure-ftpd: (?@::1) [INFO] Logout.

Tail -f shows just the last few lines. Use: grep named /var/log/syslog or grep bind /var/log/syslog to find the records. Before you do that, modify a record in the dns zone, e.g. set the ttl to a value that is 1 second higher and wait at least one minute, so you can ensure that you get recent bind errors when ispconfig troes to write the zone again.
Till root@seekanet:/etc/postfix# grep bind /var/log/syslog root@seekanet:/etc/postfix# grep named /var/log/syslog root@seekanet:/etc/postfix# I did however DNS seekanet.com and it does resolve and go to www.seekanet.com now, but thats because I set it under my domain register settings.. so I Went into ISPConfig3 and added the mail and other subdomains. And nothing * Dns resolving mail.seekanet.com - * Dns unable to resolve address mail.seekanet.com - * Dns resolving ns1.seekanet.com - * Dns unable to resolve address ns1.seekanet.com -
Mail adn subdomains in the web modzúle are not related to dns. When you wnat to use your server as dns server, then you have to add a dns zone for it in the dns module.
Yes Till, I have added a DNS Zone for seekanet.com. I can provide screenshots if you wish. (They are included)
ARecord Thank you. ns2 has been established in the DNS Zone. However, I am pretty sure this isnt' going to resolve the issue. Till
Till Are you still with me Till? Its been awhile and the ns1 ns2 and others are not DNSing. seekanet.com resolves only because I pointed the DNS Ip to my server. This is odd.
