ISPConfig isn't redirecting.

Greetings,

Well, for those that saw my old post, fixed my problem by reinstalling the OS, and ISPConfig (DNS and ISPConfig thread).

Now a new problem arises. I got it all up and running, but now the dang thing wont redirect to the proper directory. For example. go to http://www.serenity-tech.com
http://www.fireflythemud.com

Any clues where to fix this?

 

Found out that ISPConfig isn't writing the correct DocumentRoot... it's writing it to /var/www/... a hand here please?

 

Are you sure? Try going to the page... it gives me an ftp like directory listing...

http://www.serenity-tech.com

DocumentRoot should be /var/www/web3/web, not /var/www as far as I can tell? Then again, I'm kinda new to Apache configuration files thus why I wanted a system to automate it for me.

 

I had a look at it and i found out that your /var/www folder is missing.
The default folder to store your websites should be /var/www but i think you've set it to /var/www.serenity-tech.com/.

The result is that your default index.html of your website is published here:
http://www.serenity-tech.com/web3/web/

Probably there is also something wrong with your permissions, because it is possible to browse trough whole /var/ !

Within ISPConfig click on Manager > Server > Settings > Web(tab).

What is the Document Root mentioned here?
Please set it to /var/www if it is not.

 

/var/www is correctly installed. /var/www/ does exist.

 

What's the output of

Code:

ifconfig

, and what's in Vhosts_ispconfig.conf?

 

ifconfig:

Code:

vhost_config.conf is blank.... located at /etc/apache2/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf. I thought this was strange. It happened after I deleted all the sites and recreated them...

 

Before you ask....
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2007-03-27 14:32 Vhosts_ispconfig.conf

RW for root, R for group and anyone. Root owns it... is this what it should be?

 

There was, until I got frustrated and did a rm -rf /

 

i am also having the same problem. i posted it in another thread, here is the content:

I have followed the ubunto server howto and installed ISPconfig. I am able to connect just fine to the server. But i have created 2 sites and anytime i try to go to one it drops me in /var/www and does not dirrect me to the web# folder it should be. I have checked the Vhosts_ispconfig.conf file and both sites have it dirrected to their web# folder. It also lists the shared web in witch it should go to if no site if found. But alas it is not working.

I have checked the Vhosts file and it has the correct information in it. It has a default that looks like it is supose to send it to /var/www/sharedip and then the other DocumentRoot is listed as /var/www/web9/web..... dont know what to do from here

 

Just a shot in the dark...

It looks like httpd is using the /root/ispconfig/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file as its configuration.. But ispconfig write to /etc/apache2/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf

I am no expert at all, but when i do a "grep Vhosts_ispconfig.con /root/ispconfig/httpd/conf/httpd.conf" it does not find any mention of that file....

i really dont know where to go from here... any help would be appreciated

 

as posted in another thread:

ok, I followed the guide on installing unbuntu server and then i installed ispconfig. This all went well and I can log into the server on port 81. I start configuring sites and ispconfig writes them to /etc/apache2/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf but when i go to www.yyy.com it drops me into the /var/www folder and i can see the file system structure. i can then navigate to the web5 folder and then to web and it will display the page but does not correctly dirrect me there. Here are snipits from the Vhosts config file.

 

I'm guessing there is, because this is exactly what was happening to me. I'll be setting up my server AGAIN today, I'll keep you posted.

 

no, there are 2 files in the vhosts directory Vhosts_ispconfig.conf and Vhosts_ispconfig.cong~

 

Same thing.... vhost_ispconfig.conf to follow:

Ifconfig:

 

Fixed it myself...
