Help! I have suddenly encountered a login problem with my server. I typed in admin and my password and got: Warning: shell_exec() [function.shell-exec]: Unable to execute 'cat /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/adminmail.txt' in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/config.inc.php on line 137 Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/config.inc.php:137) in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/web/login/trylogin.php on line 55 The server seems to be working fine and I have not changed anything on it. I can bring up PhpMyAdmin fine, so the dedicated ispconfig server is working - but I can't login to the ispconfig user interface. Help!!! All the best Joss
1) Did you change anything in the ISPConfig php.ini file? 2) Post the ouput of: ls -la cat /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/adminmail.txt
Strange Hi Till No, I never muck around under the hood with ISPConfig, I don't know enough ... but I have just issued that command and: ls: cat: No such file or directory -rw-r--r-- 1 admispconfig admispconfig 14 2007-08-27 21:56 /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/adminmail.txt Joss
What are the outputs of Code: ls -la /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/adminmail.txt and Code: which cat ?
Okay ls -la /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/adminmail.txt gives: -rw-r--r-- 1 admispconfig admispconfig 14 2007-08-27 21:56 /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/adminmail.txt which cat gives /bin/cat and in answer to miz: cat /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/adminmail.txt Gives root@localhost Joss
Hi Falko, here is the output: server2:~# ls -la /home/admispconfig total 24 drwxr-xr-x 4 admispconfig admispconfig 4096 2007-07-24 00:28 . drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 2007-07-24 00:23 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 admispconfig admispconfig 24 2007-08-27 21:55 .forward drwxr-xr-x 8 admispconfig admispconfig 4096 2007-08-27 21:56 ispconfig drwxr-xr-x 2 admispconfig admispconfig 4096 2007-08-27 01:58 mailstats -rwxr-xr-x 1 admispconfig admispconfig 176 2007-08-27 21:55 .procmailrc This is all so strange since everything had been working fine for ages. So I don't know why it does not work now. Thanks for your help!
Looks fine as well. Just a shot in the dark: maybe your hard drive is full? What's the output of Code: df -h ?
Hi Falko, no, it looks fine: (See next post - my connection crashed an I ended up posting twice. I am having one of those weeks!)
I only set up the server a couple of months ago and just use it for my own company websites: Code: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda1 7.4G 2.0G 5.1G 28% / tmpfs 189M 0 189M 0% /lib/init/rw udev 10M 68K 10M 1% /dev tmpfs 189M 0 189M 0% /dev/shm /dev/sda1 4.3G 137M 3.9G 4% /data1 /dev/sda2 4.2G 137M 3.9G 4% /data2 The actual installation is Debian Etch from your howto and ISPConfig - that's all. Apart from regualr apt-get upgrades and updating ISPConfig I have done nothing else with the back end. The front end sites are running Joomla that's the lot. THis is not some odd permissions problem, or perhaps the adminmail.txt is corrupted? If I run the command direct I get: Code: server2:~# cat /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/adminmail.txt root@localhostserver2:~# SHould it look like that, with "root@localhostserver2:~#" all on one line? By the way. I have noticed that I get the same error come up if I log into webmail. THe webmail does display but the error is across the top of the page. Joss
Yes, thats fine as you executed it on the shell. Please delete the file: rm -f /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/adminmail.txt I'am nbot sure why you get this error message, but it should work fine without this file too, as the file in your installation just contained the default email address which is also used when the file is not present.
Hi Til, welcome to the mystery! Deleted the file and logged in. THis time I got in, but the page printed out hundreds of: Code: Warning: popen(uptime,r) [function.popen]: Resource temporarily unavailable in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/plugins/check_uptime.plugin.php on line 54 Warning: feof(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/plugins/check_uptime.plugin.php on line 55 I had to kill the page to stop it. For the moment I have reinstated adminmail.txt, by the way Any ideas?
Code: server2:~# grep admispconfig /etc/passwd admispconfig:x:1001:1001:Administrator ISPConfig:/home/admispconfig:/bin/bash I get the feeling something else is happening and these are symptoms Joss
When I do an update of ISPConfig, what does NOT get replaced? When I discovered this problem a few days ago, the first thing I did was upgrade from 15 to 16. So I am thinking that what is causing the problem is not part of the update package. Just a thought.
It gets stranger First the good news: everything is up and running perfectly. Now the bad - I have no idea why. When this started I did do a reboot but that didn't help. However, I noticed that I suddenly could not collect emails from it. I suspect something that should have been running wasn't. So I tried another reboot - and everything is back up and running. Anyone have any educated guesses? Oh, and big thanks to Falko and Till for trying to work this out! Joss (Old, knackered, musician dog, trying to learn new tricks!)
