Perfect Server, OpenSUSE 13.1 connecting to ipsconfig, NOT to squirrelmail/phpmyadmin

openSUSE 13.1 x86_64
ISPConfig version is 3.0.5.4p5

I followed The Perfect Server - OpenSUSE 13.1 x86_64 (Apache2, MySQL, PHP, Postfix, Dovecot and ISPConfig 3), but WITHOUT configuring a static IP [as I didn't have one] - so left I it configured for DCHP.

I commented out the lines beginning "php_admin_flag . . " in /etc/apache2/conf.d/squirrelmail.conf

I have connected to ISPConfig, through which I have created a client and a website. Within the client, I have created an email domain and a mailbox.

The admin login of ISPconfig > Monitor > Server State mentions . . "All needed services are online"

http://[external IP]/phpmyadmin

is " . . not available" and neither is

http://[external IP]/squirrelmail

I have added my internal IP to /etc/hosts:-

Code:

192.168.0.6    server1

When navigating to

https://192.168.0.6/phpmyadmin

or to

https://192.168.0.6/squirrelmail

the browser downloads [rather than rendering] the index web page - written in PHP.

The ISPConfig test script outputs:-

Code:

Because the report said " . . Port 465 (SMTP server SSL) seems NOT to be listening . . ", I port-forwarded port 465 TCP to the internal IP of the server 192.168.0.6, but it didn't help. I don't feel confident to tinker any further.

Can anybody advise?

Thanks in advance

Hello again

I neglected to mention that I had set up DNS services thru no-ip.com

In the meantime, I found howtoforge tutorial How To Install No-ip2 On Ubuntu 12.04 LTS In Order To Host Servers On A Dynamic IP Address.

I already installed and ran the Dynamic DNS Update Client (DUC) for Linux from no-ip.com and, from the above tutorial and also from the no-ip.com knowledgebase, I port-forwarded:-

port 20-22 TCP
port 80 TCP
port 443 TCP
port 8245 TCP&UDP

to my internal IP 192.168.0.6

I now find that my domain [managed by no-ip.com]

http://mydomain.tld

renders the default "Welcome!" index page provided by ispconfig.

I created an FTP account which connects on

ftp.mydomain.tld

although it fails to retrieve the directory listing [/srv/www/clients/client1/web1] and then disconnects (something I will look into later).

I now find that with

http://mydomain.tld/phpmyadmin

and with

http://mydomain.tld/squirrelmail

the browser downloads [rather than rendering] the web page.

There does not seem to be anything missing|extra in the updated ISPConfig test script output.

So far, any progress made seems to from changes OTHER than in ISPConfig

Thanks Till,

I have tried re-installing a couple of times. I was finding it very difficult to ensure that mod_php is enabled.

I am assuming that mod_php gets installed with the inclusion of:-

Code:

zypper install . . . apache2-mod_php5 

in step 10.

In the end, I found that including:-

Code:

a2enmod php5

enabled the module, so that running:-

Code:

apache2ctl -M

finally included php5_module (shared) and . . .

http://mydomain.tld/squirrelmail

. . and . . .

http://mydomain.tld/phpmyadmin

. . . triumphantly enter their login screens!

Regards

Guy

p.s. now to investigate why I can login to my ftp account, but NOT get a directory listing (which I am assuming is about permissions)

.

 

Hi Till,

I don't think there is any error.

In /etc/passwd there is an entry:-

Code:

web1:x:5004:5004::/srv/www/clients/client1/web1:/bin/false

Pure-ftpd FAQ suggested various log file to search for ftp errors [none of which I found on my openSUSE], however, /var/log/messages has the entries:-

Code:

2014-11-25T18:45:02.142709+00:00 server1 pure-ftpd: (?@::1) [INFO] New connection from ::1
2014-11-25T18:45:02.143419+00:00 server1 pure-ftpd: (?@::1) [INFO] Logout.

My Filezilla client message log has the output:-

Code:

Is this all something for Filezilla support ?
