I run a mandrake 10.2 system with perfect setup on a remote machine. I was upgrading from 2.2.3 to 2.2.5 and part way through my internet connection was cut off. When I reconnected to ssh I tried to run the upgrade again but forgot to delete the install_ispconfig folder first and just went straight to ./setup. The problem is the install this time went fine until nearly the end when iot said there was a problem with the php binary. The system worked fantastically before the upgrade. Here is the last bit of the install log: /var/log/ispconfig_install.log Tue Jul 18 20:09:26 BST 2006 - [ISPConfig] - Directory /var/www/sharedip created.

Problem Solved I restored the backups I made then deleted folder /install_ispconfig then started again. All is well in the world once more. Ben P.S. Great work on a great system.
