Cannot access ispconfig3 admin panel

Hi There

As the title sayes i cannot access the login panel for ISPconfig3 , everything on the server is running ( mail , websites etc ) but when i type in the web address for it i get a page cannot be displayed message . I can putty into it in root mode.

I tried plugging the server into a plain router and a workstaion to simplify things and still get the same issue , i have other servers on the network and can access then ok so its something on the server .

centos 6 perfect server setup with nginex , dovecot etc etc from your perfect server guide . it was functioned flawlessly for over a year , this is a new developement .

can you please point me in the right direction ?

thanks

 

Ispconfig3

 

//** SVN Revision
$svn_revision = '$Revision: 3210 $';
$revision = str_replace(array('Revision:','$',' '), '', $svn_revision);

//** Application
define('ISPC_APP_TITLE', 'ISPConfig');
define('ISPC_APP_VERSION', '3.0.4.6');
define('DEVSYSTEM', 0);

 

will the update preserve all of the sites , mail addresses and dns entries on it ?

 

just appplied updates , email still works , websites are down , webmail is down and ispconfig interface still not available .... i had a bad feeling about doing that , now none of the clients sites are online

please try www.ibcbrantford.com as an example of the sites on this server

can you please let me know where to start ?

thanks

 

just watched the reboot and it said the nginx startup failed grr

[root@neptune ~]# /etc/init.d/nginx restart
nginx: [emerg] unknown "https" variable
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed
[root@neptune ~]#

 

hopefully this gets a fast response as im getting a TON of flak here for breaking the webserver

 

the line is not in the /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

where is the apps vhost. ?

 

ok i have edited those files and reloaded nginx and i now get this ..

nginx: [error] open() "/var/run/nginx.pid" failed (2: No such file or directory)

any suggestions ?

 

after reboot it all works now , HOWEVER

been so long since we had to login into the admin panel that we cant remember the password for it .

Is there an obvious way to reset this please ?

a step by step ( copy and paste style of code would be very much appreciated ..

thanks in advance

 

perfect , worked thanks - awesome response time to help

you guys are really great .
