Hello, we have ispconfig 3, and because of some faulty installation (after a black hat messed up our server), we have many problems with it. For example; - We cannot set up a new email user. - No logs available from ispconfig. - SSH does get disconnected after a very little while (one-two minutes). - And so on. What can we do to solve the problem? We already tried a new installation/update to the new ispconfig 3 version, but with no result. Thank you, -- Betafer
At the end of the post that i linked above, there are instructions on how to debug issues when changes were not written to disk. Regarding the ssh disconnects, are you sure that the system is really cleaned? These symptoms are not good and I guess that the hacker i still active on your server. Have you checked the server with rkhunter and chkrootkit for rootkits?
Hello, technically there was no hacker, just an unsatisfied sysadmin that played with our configurations files. We also checked with those tools, and there was no problem. We reinstalled (somehow) the ispconfig. The logs are finally working, and also the email creation. There is still some problem with the Apache/cgi/fastcgid; ispconfig continues to rewrite our vhost config files, so the website goes down when it recreates them with its own rules. As for the fastcgi problem, some pages are not loading, and the server throws errors, such as: [Thu Oct 03 16:38:27 2013] [emerg] [client X.X.X.X] (43)Identifier removed: mod_fcgid: can't lock process table in pid 17320, referer: http://www.betafer.it/it/chiavi-a-b...-esagonali-aas1316-p-22012-8014230429809.html [Thu Oct 03 16:56:06 2013] [warn] [client X.X.X.X] (70014)End of file found: mod_fcgid: can't get data from http client, referer: http://www.betafer.it/es/ We have a wordpress blog, but after this reinstallation, we cannot login in the admin panel, as we have: [Thu Oct 03 18:57:37 2013] [warn] [client X.X.X.X] (104)Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: error reading data from FastCGI server [Thu Oct 03 18:57:37 2013] [warn] [client X.X.X.X] (104)Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: ap_pass_brigade failed in handle_request_ipc function We installed PrestaShop for our e-commerce, but it seems to work fine (except those fcgid errors). What is the problem? Thank you! Best Regards, -- betafer.it
Maybe your admin placed a not working vhost file in the conf-custom folder /usr/local/ispconfig/server/conf-custom/ as the defaukt files delivered by ispconfig are working out of the box if your server matches the system requirements (perfect setup guides).
Hello, in that folder we have only these directory: 4 drwxr-s--- 2 ispconfig ispconfig 4096 16 mar 2013 mail 4 drwxr-s--- 2 ispconfig ispconfig 4096 25 ago 17.25 install 4 drwxr-s--- 2 ispconfig ispconfig 4096 16 mar 2013 index 4 drwxr-s--- 2 ispconfig ispconfig 4096 16 mar 2013 error [EDIT] Those folders are empty...
Hello, we have our own folder for the www contents of the website, as well as errors and access files. Sometimes, ispconfig decides to rewrite the vhost files, so we lose all our settings, and the website goes down because of the wrong settings ispconfig decides to put in the vhost file. How can we put our own vhost file, and be sure ispconfig does not rewrite it in any way? Also, we would like to solve the few problems we have with ispconfig and the webserver, as in the prevous posts. We also noticed the following error in the ispconfig error log: ven 4 ott 2013, 07.50.01, CEST FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/3.2.13-grsec-xxxx-grs-ipv6-64/modules.dep: No such file or directory ven 4 ott 2013, 07.50.01, CEST Failed to load mptctl ven 4 ott 2013, 07.50.01, CEST ven 4 ott 2013, 07.50.01, CEST Error: (CLI:003) Specified controller does not exist. ven 4 ott 2013, 07.50.01, CEST every 5 minutes.

a) Create a custom vhost configuration template and store it in the conf-custom folder. b) Do not create that website in ispconfig and manage it manually on the shell instead.
Hello, 1) we have several websites on our webserver; should we put all our vhost conf files in that folder you mentioned before, or what? 2) What about the problem we have: ven 4 ott 2013, 07.50.01, CEST FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/3.2.13-grsec-xxxx-grs-ipv6-64/modules.dep: No such file or directory ven 4 ott 2013, 07.50.01, CEST Failed to load mptctl ven 4 ott 2013, 07.50.01, CEST ven 4 ott 2013, 07.50.01, CEST Error: (CLI:003) Specified controller does not exist. ven 4 ott 2013, 07.50.01, CEST There are a lot of those errors in our ispconfig error log; we tried to do something about that module, but with no success, how can we keep ispconfig to throw it? Until now, that would be the only error isconfig was able to log. 3) The errors we had: [Thu Oct 03 16:38:27 2013] [emerg] [client X.X.X.X] (43)Identifier removed: mod_fcgid: can't lock process table in pid 17320, referer: http://www.betafer.it/it/chiavi-a-bu...230429809.html [Thu Oct 03 16:56:06 2013] [warn] [client X.X.X.X] (70014)End of file found: mod_fcgid: can't get data from http client, referer: http://www.betafer.it/es/ was caused by the Apache reloading; we had to put in our crontab the following: /etc/init.d/apache2 reload to be able to get errors/access logs working again, as the server (maybe) stopped to write them after a while. But, because we reinstalled ispconfig, probably that command is not needed anymore. We will be sure tomorrow/after tomorrow.

Hello, after a little debug, I finally found out something. The following errors: were caused by a wordpress blog installed on the server, when successfully accessing the admin area. Before the reinstallation of ispconfig the blog was working normal. But, after the reinstallation, if you tried to log in the admin panel (by giving the correct username/password) you would get a 500 error, thus a 404 error given by the configuration of website where the blog is installed. In the admin configuration file of wp (wp-admin/admin.php), the following lines: PHP: if ( current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) ) @ini_set( 'memory_limit', apply_filters( 'admin_memory_limit', WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT ) ); were causing the error. By commenting them out the admin area is working again as before. The other errors remain to be solved. I hope to found a solution as soon as possible. -- betafer.it
