One of the domains I am currently hosting on Plesk has a digit as it's first character. I can't add a user to this domain, as the user name then starts with a digit and the add script complains "Field: Username The user name has to contain a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 32 letters or figures and has to begin with a letter." I already have a bunch of domains running under ISPConfig, so I can't switch the user name prefix from [Domain] to [Web]. Any ideas how I can handle this?
You can change the regular expression that checks the username in the file /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/plugins/isp_username.plugin.php
Can I expand the width of isp_isp_user.user_username without breaking anything? Thank you! That's just what I was looking for. That issue has now been resolved. But that leads me to my next issue. Some of our customers create really long domain names (what ever happened to short, simple domain names?). A few of those have longish user names as well. So if one of my customers owns myveryownreallylongdomainname.com (length 33 if I counted correctly), and has a user named projectinspector, that user will have to authenticate with a really chopped-up user name. Could I extend the size of isp_isp_user.user_username to perhaps 64 without breaking things elsewhere?
Yes. But be careful when you update ISPConfig, you will ahve to extend the field length in the sql dump that is in the install_ispconfig dir too before you run a update, or your usernames might get truncated.
