Anybody sucsefuly used Akeeba or Joomlapack with ISPC3?

[SOLVED]Anybody sucsefuly used Akeeba or Joomlapack with ISPC3?

Hi all,

Here am I again

I have managed to get things up and running on my server I have created 2 sites and I can aces the welcome page on them.

I was trying to start moving a site from my home server to the server in the data center. My sites are Joomla! based and I use Akeeba Pro to make backups of them.

I uploaded the site archive and the execution file (kickstart.php) on to the server, and than its going wrong.
I can execute the kickstart.php file but upon extraction I get rights errors:

Code:

Could not open /var/www/clients/client4/web2/web/installation/css/img/busy.gif for writing.

Even if I set the whole dir to chmod 777 I can't get permission.
If I log in with FTP I can make directories and put files in them, so than all is fine.

So guys what am I missing here??

TIA

 

I have successfully used joomla pack on isconfig3 before.

I normally set the site to modphp.

when you set the whole directory to 777 did you use the

Code:

chmod -R 777 yourjoomla directory name

?
make sure you include the -R to recursively unrestrict the whole directory.

Don't forget to reapply restrictions!

 

Till,

I already knew that I have to use suexec and php-fastcgi so they are enabled.
I have uploaded the site with filezilla so the files would or must have the right settings I thought.

But I can't get It to work for me.

Guess I wil put back my backup and start over again, only thing I can imagine is I have used the wrong follow up of things.
I think I first uploaded the file and after that I set the settings for the site, found something in an other topic that that is the wrong way off doing things.

 

output:

Code:

server1:~# ls -la /var/www/clients/client4/web2/web/installation/css/img/
ls: cannot access /var/www/clients/client4/web2/web/installation/css/img/: No such file or directory

But that's normal I guess because the Akeeba backup is put in the:
/var/www/clients/client4/web2/web/ and than must extract it self to that dir, but if I haven't the wright permission it won't get extracted.

I am using Debian Lenny setup the perfect way.

TIA

 

That I know, but the working of Akeeba is that it extract for me with the kickstart.php file.

Code:

server1:~# ls -la /var/www/clients/client4/web2/web/
total 3388924

drwxrwxrwx 2 web2 client4       4096 2010-06-09 00:30 stats

 

Here is my screendump:

Again some permissions isu I think.

I have formatted my testserver (local) and I am reinstalling it to test it here locally, maybe I did something wrong with the server in the dc??

Also I will give it a try at my live server with ISPC2 on it (it always have worked on there) to see if there something wrong with the backup image and or install php script.

 

Till,

First off all thanks for all your help and suggestions..

The Akeeba software normally doesn't need a empty Joomla!, I use it for several years now (ISPC2) and normally the kickstart.php extracts the backup of the Joomla! site and call's the Joomla! installer to set up the site and database again. It's (normally) a perfect way to backup / clone complete site's.

I will give the other suggestions a try and will come back again.....

 

Done file is created.

Done it to make sure, I can see: Server API CGI/FastCGI
But cant seem to find any referance to suexec

 

I am getting desperate so I have build a new street 2x I have set up my local test-server here at home, completely fresh with ISPC3 and still it doesn't work.

Second I formatted again and completely reinstalled ISPC2 on my local test-server and voilà everything works right out of the box.

Don't know what to do anymore.
(Don't say switch back to ISPC2 again that I understand.....will work)
Even the creator of Akeeba is thinking with us at this but he also is

Is there a way to give FULL rights to the script on the server I know its not save but even setting the site to 777 recursively doesn't work.
So just to try it how do I set the whole server wide open give everybody rights to everything (of course I will try this only at my home server)

 

Till I am using the latest ISPConfig 3.0.2.1 And this morning before I looked at this post I also was thinking about the open_basedir.
My lines in there are:

Code:

/var/www/clients/client4/web2/web:/var/www/clients/client4/web2/tmp:/var/www/g-visions.nl/web:/srv/www/g-visions.nl/web:/usr/share/php5:/tmp:/usr/share/phpmyadmin

If I put an extra line in there like:

Code:

/var/www/clients/client4/web2/backup:/var/www/clients/client4/web2/web:/var/www/clients/client4/web2/tmp:/var/www/g-visions.nl/web:/srv/www/g-visions.nl/web:/usr/share/php5:/tmp:/usr/share/phpmyadmin

I give the user rights to the /backup right? Do I have to restart apache or something else every time, to get the line activated? And do I set the permissions of the dir myself? or as you stated in an other post it will be done automaticly?

I have contacted the creator of Akeeba to ask if there is an debug mode

 

It's solved it was a bug in the script the creator off Akeeba has looked with me on my server to find it out.

Thanks for thinking along with me, have some issues left but will them ask in other topics, but first I will search for an answer...

 

What was the bug that was found out? I still cannot get it to work.
