    Thank you for your reply.
    I am wondering the same thing. Maybe client0 is a default one and not have its row in the 'client' table. I do not recall whether it was displayed in the UI when things worked fine.
    After seeing no entries in the 'client' table, I had created an additional test client. I was able to see that in the 'client' table and consequently it was visible on the UI. But when I login as that test client user, still no 'Sites' etc available in the tabs. That had prompted me to disable the modules and then not being able to enable due to the missing System tab.
    Interestingly, in the Test Client user, the Help and Tools tabs are visible, whereas in the admin user not....
    regards.

    client0 is the default admin account.
    the first actual client/reseller account created will be client1.

    But is it normal that there is no row in the 'client' table 'n dbispconfig for the default client?

    Thank you. Do you know by any chance how to re-enable the modules via the UI or config files? While trying to solve the 'sites', 'dns', 'emails' not being displayed, I have disabled all modules except the 'Client' module via UI's System > CP Users >. Trouble is I think I have also disabled the system module hence I can't re-enable those modules. What is the way to re-enable them?

    Update the sys_user.modules column and add 'admin' to the comma-delimited string, then logout and login to the control panel again.

    Thank you! Indeed, when I modified the table column as specified, the `system` module is available again!
    Once the System module was available again, I went back to System -> CPUsers and I have enabled all the modules. Then I checked the sys_user.modules column again which had dns, sites, mail everything.

    I have logged out of ISPConfig3 and relogged in. I was able to see Client, Help, Monitor, Tools & System modules but for some reason the Sites, DNS and Mail modules are not displayed in the UI. Is there any known issue in relation to this? What can the reason be?
    thanks.

    Hi again. I can't seem to find the cause of this problem. I appreciate any help!

    it's probably not going to be this, but just in case, i'll throw it out there.....

    what do you have in /usr/local/ispconfig/interface/lib/config.inc.php?
    there should be a line in the server section with 'modules_available' and a line in the interface section with 'interface_modules_enabled'

    Hi thank you for the voice!
    When I check the /usr/local/ispconfig/interface/lib/config.inc.php file, the values of those two variables are:
    Code:
    //** Server
    ...
    $conf['modules_available'] = 'dashboard,admin,mail,sites,monitor,client,dns,help';
    ...
    ...
    //** Interface
    $conf['interface_modules_enabled'] = 'dashboard,mail,sites,dns,tools,help';
    
    On my nano editor it looks like those lines are commented out but I think it is nano's interpretation of PHP code. So I think.
    When I modify the available modules via system/cp_user, on the UI I can turn the modules on and off. But after re-login I see that it does not woerk with sites, dns and mail!
    This is despite the fact that for the user, the modules are in the sys_user.modules column!
    Thanks again.

    Are the servers with the sites service enabled?

    Thank you for the reply!
    I N D E E D!
    That was the cause of this problem. My ISPConfig3's following server services were NOT running (their boxes were not ticked from System/Server Services:
    Webserver
    DNS-server
    Mailserver
    I do not know why I had left them so whilst I had ticked the other boxes....
    THANK YOU!
