Greetings to all, i have recently updated my ispconfig from ISPConfig 2.2.24 to ISPConfig 2.2.25 on my CENTOS 5.2 (updated from 5) . Everything was fine till a server restart. Apparently the whole ispconfig folder under root was miraculously deleted ! I can not start my httpd and i get this error : unable to start piped log program '/root/ispconfig/cronolog --symlink=/var/log/httpd/ispconfig_access_log /var/log/httpd/ispconfig_access_log_%Y_%m_%d': Permission denied Unable to open logs I am glad that this happened on the test server (although running important things) but why did it do that ??? Regards, Leonidas
Thanks for the reply. I did not receive any errors during the update. The problem is that the folder /root/ispconfig/ was completely removed without me doing anything. Really weird. I don't understand how could this happen. I reinstalled version ISPConfig 2.2.25 and everything seems ok now. Fortunately it did not overwrite my previous database and configuration files. I am wondering about an attack to my system ( but would it be logical to remove ispconfig ?) What is the best tool to tracert unauthorized access ? Regards, Leonidas
This happens if the update did not finish due to a problem when the binaries are compiled. Instead of reinstalling, you should have run: mkdir /root/ispconfig before you run the installer again, as it might be that you database is not up to date yet. If you encounter any problems in the ispconfig interface, e.g. a missing checkbox for the databases, you will have to run the update again. No, this was caused due to a failure during update like running out of space or a interruption like closing the ssh connection while the script runs.
that's good to hear. Although the previous update was completed fine. I think that at the end it started ispconfig again. In anycase i will run the update again as you suggested. Thank you for your prompt reply. Best Regards, Leonidas
