i redid it like the howtos said and i still get that error!!!!!!! I am at a loss on this one!!!!! it seems to be looking for a file that is not there!
Hm, I think the problem is that you're trying to install from /root/ispconfig. Choose another directory, e.g. /tmp, then unpack the ISPConfig sources there, go to install_ispconfig and run Code: ./setup . Make sure you delete /root/ispconfig and /home/admispconfig before if they exist.
well i just did what you suggested and i got to same place but with different error here is the error this time: Installing build environment: /root/ispconfig/php/lib/php/build/ Installing header files: /root/ispconfig/php/include/php/ Installing helper programs: /root/ispconfig/php/bin/ program: phpize program: php-config program: phpextdist checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu creating target.h - canonical system defines checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... configure: error: newly created file is older than distributed files! Check your system clock ERROR: Could not configure ClamAV I did what you said and unzipped it in the /tmp and the above error is what i got. i dont understand why do i have to look at system clock. i just gues this wants to give me a hard time????
You have to update your system time! Run Code: date to find out your current system time. If the ClamAV sources are from a newer date than your system time then ClamAV complains... ClamAV is very finicky about this... On http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_mandrake_10_2_p6 I describe how to update your system time.
Well i got a little further this morning!!! Thank you so much for the help!!! But right now i have another error: ########## QUOTA ########## Checking for package quota... which: no quota in (/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/root/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/libexec) ERROR: quota not found! I remember seeing this on the forums somewhere but i cant find it any more. so any more help would be appreciated. All other advice has worked so far!!! thank you thank you!!!
ISPConfig needs the quota package. Install the quota package from mandriva, delete the rests of the failed install as described in the installation manual, unpack the installer tar.gz again and rerun the setup.
I recommend that you have a look at this tutorial: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_mandrake_10_2 It prepares a Mandrake 10.2 system for the installation of ISPConfig.
I am looking at it now and installing the stuff right in a row!!! I should of done this first!!!! I will let you know if it works!!!! I am working on it right now!!!
well guys thanks for the help everything I think i got it!!! the installation got all the way till it started asking me questions about mysql and when i put in my sql password it was wrong so i think i have to set up my pw just like it says in the howto on the perfect setup so i am going to try it again and get back to you !!!!!
alright two things guys: i followed the perfect mandrake how to and everything worked out and tested good except when i tellnet my local host to see if SMTP-AUTH and TLS work properly i got the following weirdness: [james@localhost ~]$ telnet localhost 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1). Escape character is '^]'. eh1o localhost I tellnet in and connects but when i type in the next comman eh1o localhost i get nothing. please tell me what i am doing wrong AGAIN !!!! So i continue on and install ispconfig and i get all the way till it ask me questions about mysql and for some odd reason its failing right there: ########## INSTALLATION ########## Preparing files. Please wait a moment... All prerequisites are fulfilled. Here we go... Please enter your MySQL server:localhost Please enter your MySQL user:root Please enter your MySQL password: OK Please enter a name for the ISPConfig database (e.g. db_ispconfig):db_ispconfig Please enter the IP address of the ISPConfig web (e.g. 192.168.0.1):192.168.1.1 OK Please enter the host name (e.g. www):www Please enter the domain (e.g. xyz.de):netlan.com ERROR: The URL is not reachable! The installation routine stops here! I really dont know what is going on here!!!! Again any help would be appreciated!!!!
First, it's Code: eh[COLOR="Red"]l[/COLOR]o localhost , not Code: eh[COLOR="Red"]1[/COLOR]o localhost ! Secondly, what's in /etc/postfix/main.cf as myhostname and mydomain? myhostname/mydomain must exist in DNS! http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=839
Ok guys I feel really stupid on the first question it worked. Also i finally got ispconfig installed and running and i was able to log into it. But i cant find anything on how to configure imap. I was told that ispconfig will give me the ability to edit and configure this protocal. Is this right or am in wrong and need to go another direction????
You don't have to configure imap at all. Just install it, start it, and then create users and email addresses, and the users should be able to login to your imap server.
Not to be stupid or anything but is there any how to's on how to create users and email addresses. And then how users get access to that information. And how users are able to login to your imap server. I mean i am really really new at this imap and email thing on linux and how to do it. I did the install it part from the perfect set up guide for madriva/mandrake and i started it. But i cant find were to ad users and email addresses. Thanks for all your help guys.
No, there is no howto. Here the steps, all in the ISPConfig webinterface: 1) create a client. 2) create a website. 3) Go on the user and email tab of this newly created website and click on new user. Fill out the name, username, email and password. Hit save. Now you can connet with the username (like: web1_newuser) and the password you entered for this user to the pop3 and imap account.
Ok well i did what you said i created a client created a site and then i created an email and now i dont know how test to see if the imap is working!!!! How do i send an test email or any email. Do i use a mail client or what do i do here i am lost again for the hundreth time. Of course i dont know any good email clients on mandriva?? So really i am in the dark on this question again.... Can you guys help me out again????? Thanks again for the help prevously it work great so far.
Why do you need an email client for Mandrive. If you have a windows workstation too you can stay with the mail client you used before. If you are looking for a mailclient for mandriva, have a look at thunderbird, kmail or evolution. Opem the mailclient of your choice, create a new account. Set incoming and outgoing server to the IP address or domain of your server. Select Imap in the account settings, enter username (the username looks like this web1_xxxxxx) and the password you entered as you creted the email address in ISPConfig. Now send an eimail to the address you created in ISPConfig.
