Problem Installing ISPConfig on a Debian System

I am running Debian 3.1 on an XEN virtual server on a Celeron processor.

After running through most of the configuration/setup scripts i get the following errors which i am having difficulty understanding. I have had to make a few minor tweaks to the scripts to get it to run (i.e. the path to mysql, which is located as standard at /usr/local/mysql). I have used the apt-get tool to install/update the relevant required programs. Below is the end of the information output to the terminal.

Please can anyone help/advise?

Celeron 1.0 GHz
RAM 128 MB
Raid 10 GB

Freespace: 8.5GB

no obvious memory errors/overflow, etc.

 

What's the output of

Code:

df -h

? From which directory are you trying to install ISPConfig?

Did you follow this guide: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_debian_sarge to set up the system?

 

As stated above!

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 9.9G 991M 8.5G 11% /
tmpfs 65M 0 65M 0% /dev/shm

out of curiosity, why?
i havent seen anything with regards to memory problems to my recollection.

As for the install directory i have tried both untarring in / and in /root, then cd to install_ispconf and running the setup script. (The script wont run from outside this dir as it uses local references [./] to chain load other scripts)

is there an obvious issue i have missed from the output?

 

Ok, it was no space problem.

Did you follow this guide: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_debian_sarge to set up the system?

 

I have the excact same problem.

And I followed the perfect_setup_debian_sarge guide.

Also made sure that Bison, flex, gcc, zlib, libmysql12-dev, g++, cpp are all installed and up to date.

I use a 32-bit linux build and have no mem-problems.

I really have no Idea what to try next

 

I am begining to think sarge is not the best platform for this, is Fedora Core 6 or CentOS 4 likely to be an any better platform for this, was going to get either one reinstalled instead of Debian and retry. I suspect it might have something to do with the fact a lot of packages are moved around or missing in Debian by default and some preinstalled versions are incompatible with ISPconfig.

Will get my hosting company to reinstall the server and try again.

 

After the last post, i decided NOT to have the sys-admin install anything other than Debian. It already has PHP5.2,MySQL,Apache/Apache2,BIND, and all other dependent packages installed. Followed the instructions again from scratch, litterally line by line incase i 'overlooked' something. Still there is a problem compiling the PHP5.2 binary. Is there anything i might have missed in the terminal output? anything that you might recommend i check? this is REALLY frustrating as i cant see what the 'problem' is.

 

Hmmm. There are quite a few topics on this matter on this forums now, but none of the solutions presented in the other topics have worked for me..
or Xyhf here either it seems..

I also just tried to start over again with my system, but still the same.. *sigh*

 

This is going to sound really stupid, but... I tried an older version of ISPconfig... and it worked first time. I think 2.2.9 may be broken for older servers (i know it evidently shouldnt be!).

Ronin: U might try doing the same.

Till: any chance of looking into this? Thanks for trying to help.

 

Oooh.. Hmm.. Gotta try that when I get home today..

 

If older ISPConfig versions install fine, but the newest one isn't, I guess the package g++ is missing. This is required by the PHP version in ISPConfig 2.2.9.
Please try

Code:

apt-get install g++

 

Sorry, no - g++ already installed!

apt-get install g++
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
g++ is already the newest version.

already checked dependencies and ALL are installed, not sure what is causing the issue with 2.2.9, but the older version works fantastically

 

I just tried ISPconfig 2.2.8 and it works like a dream for me too...

Now I just gotta figure out why my Linux server is crashing my Asus wl500g router all the time *sigh*

 

That's really strange...

 

Indeed it is..
Gonna try upgrading to 2.2.9 from my 2.2.8 build and see if that works too.
