[ERROR] Exception occurred: ISPConfigOSException -> Command resolvconf -u ....

Hi,

I get the error indicated into title :
" [ERROR] Exception occurred: ISPConfigOSException -> Command resolvconf -u 2>&1 failed. (/ispconfig.ai.php:15) "
while i am trying to install ISPConfig 3 on a fresch debian 12. Any help will be appreciated.

-1- What i have done :

-a- Install a fresch debian 11 with SSH only.
-b- upgrade from debian 11 to debian 12 according to this guide : "how-to-upgrade-from-debian-11-to-debian-12"

-c- try to install ISPConfig via the guide and adapted command to my needs :

GUIDE : " Perfect Server Automated ISPConfig 3 Installation on Debian 10 to Debian 12, Ubuntu 20.04 and Ubuntu 22.04 "

I need only ISPConfig to manage web site under Ngnix i have understand that the following line could be the good one to serve my case :
( i have already 2 dns servers who are running fine and are accessible from this server via DIG command )

COMMAND : get -O - https://get.ispconfig.org | sh -s -- --debug --no-dns --no-mail --no-mailman --roundcube --use-nginx --use-ftp-ports=40110-40210 --use-php=5.6,7.0,7.1,7.2,7.3,7.4,8.0 --unattended-upgrades

-2- During the installation i get the TWO following warning and errors :

-a-
sh: 1: postconf: not found
[WARN] Command postconf -e "inet_interfaces = loopback-only" failed. (/lib/os/class.ISPConfigDebianOS.inc.php:1462)

-b-
[ERROR] Exception occurred: ISPConfigOSException -> Command resolvconf -u 2>&1 failed. (/ispconfig.ai.php:15)

At this level the script stopped the installation.

-3- According to READ before posting instructions i provide the following results :

Any help or idea will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Why such a roundabout way? Why install Debian 11 when you immediately upgrade to Debian 12? Download Debian 12 installer, and install 12 directly:
https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/debian-minimal-server/
It may well be you complicated matters and thus ISPConfig fails. If you follow that minimal server guide and then use ISPConfig autoinstall you are at least using a supported system and method.

 

Hello,
error is due to a change in the system and a missing update in the auto-installer, so another step is needed here for debian 12.

2 solutions:
a) ln -s /usr/bin/resolvectl /usr/local/bin/resolvconf + reboot
b) apt install openresolv + reboot (my personal favorit)

BR,
Guenter

 

ISPConfig auto installer may only work flawlessly on clean system, thus wise, you should follow @Taleman's advice.
