The problem is, after a fresh install of ISP config I have an errors: Code: 404 Not Found Code: 500 Internal Server Error Expand: Steps I've made Login to ISPConfig GoTo "System"->"Firewall"->"Add Firewall record"->Create default rule with activated common ports Added a Client Added 2 sites Added an FTP account Logged in new FTP account and uploaded index.html (empty file with "TEST" text in it) Afterwards I'm not able to see "TEST" in my browser, only 404 error. Also, now, I have 1 more problem: From time to time I'm not able to connect to server wia SSH (port 22) neither wia FTP (port 21).

11:32:41 m-server pure-ftpd: ([email protected]) [INFO] Timeout Jun 16 11:33:01 m-server pure-ftpd: ([email protected]) [INFO] Timeout My questions as follows: Why I am not able to connect to my own server after installin ISPConfig following the HowTo 0_o? Have I done something wrong, or there is a problem with how-to?.. Why ISPConfig doesn't create a folders infrastructure with error docs, webalizer etc? Is it becouse of symlinks I've created?
Expand: My environment I have a "little server" (AMD Phenom II X4 940 Black Edition + 8GB RAM) with Windows Server 2016 (Nano Server) with Hyper-V role connected to the internet wia router. One of virtual mashines is for ISPConfig. It has dynamic RAM from 512 Mb to 6144 Mb with default (startup) value 1024 Mb. ubuntu-16.04.2-server-amd64 Current version: 3.1.3 ISPConfig test script results.txt I've installed ISPConfig according to this manual, with Expand: some small modifications Code: # As I using /data for all data (mysql, web, etc) let's create directories and symbolic links # If the folder exist - moving to /data, if not - creating it mv /data/mysql /var/lib/mysql; mkdir /data/mysql; ln -s /data/mysql /var/lib/mysql mv /opt /data/opt; mkdir /data/opt; ln -s /data/opt /opt mv /var/www /data/www; mkdir /data/www; ln -s /data/www /var/www Code: nano /etc/nginx/nginx.conf [...] http { [...] server_tokens off; [...] Others steps to install ISPConfig were made according to manual. Expand: Why am I installing ISPConfig? I don't have enough Linux and Web-Server administrating skills to safely install and configurate my mint web-server, using only OS and it's repos Administrating (creating site folders, adding ftp-users, managing MariaDB database) from command line is boring, I want userfriendly GUI without need to connect wia SSH. Expand: What do I want to get? I want to have a Web-Server for my experiments, but it should be public. Something like "half-production" server for me and another couple people to practice in web-development.
The reason for your FTP error is the firewall record that you added. You closed the passive ports of the Ftp daemon and therefore you can not connect anymore. The firewall is not needed if you don't run any additional software beside the one described in the perfect server guide as all services have to be reachable from outside to use your server, so closing their ports will disable the service and there are no services installed that shall not be reachable, so closing ports for not installed software makes not much sense. But if you want to keep the firewall nontheless then you have to configure the FTP passive port range: https://www.faqforge.com/linux/cont...ange-in-pure-ftpd-on-denian-and-ubuntu-linux/ If you created symlinks for e.g. /var/www, then that's the cause. ISPConfig detects the security risk that you imposed by this and rejects to create any folders. The install tutorials do not instruct you to create any symlinks. Just follow the install tutorials to the letter. and if you want to relocate the /var/www or /var/vmail folder, then use bind mounts but not symlinks: https://www.howtoforge.com/use_moun...ctory_of_a_ispconfig_server_to_a_new_location
Thanks for the fast answer! Got it with symlinks. If I understood you correctly, I just need to skip this step in the guide:
No. You should just not have made: "GoTo "System"->"Firewall"->"Add Firewall record"->Create default rule with activated common ports" or when you do that and want to use FTP, then open the passive port range as outlined in the link I posted.
