Greetings everyone. I have just installed ISPConfig on a fedora 8 Linux. I used webmin without problems before, but I read that ISPConfig is much more user-friendly and a bit more comprehensive than Webmin. The problem is that I have a registered domain name with DynDns and a few free domains for testing purposes. My ISP uses dynamic IP, but this is not a problem since I have configured my router for dyndns and opened all the necessary ports in the router NAT. I have also installed Inadyn daemon to update the IP with DynDns. My question is : how do I go about using ISPConfig with dynamic IP? So far, I can only access the ISPConfig panel but that's it. In other words, my registered domain name is, say, *.something.org and other free domains are domain1.dyndns.org, domain2.ath.cx ...etc..., how do I configure them in ISPConfig so they go live? Thank you very much for your help·
i have used the free domain names from dyndns with ISPconfig before its just mydns.homeip.net _________ ( TOP level domain ) webmail.mydns.homeip.net __________ ( SUB level )
Thank you for your reply. I have had headaches with it so I went back to webmin. But again, I have another problem. Apache displays html files but no php. I have checked php module and it's there. I just don't get it. I have never had this problem before. Did I do anything wrong? Thanks again for your time
check the setings on the domain you setup i think there is an oration for php or see if they is enabled by default step by step the php on the default level of apache is disabled @ /var/www/htdocs or /var/www/html
ow do I know that it is / is not disabled? Here is the loadmodule list from my configuration file. As you can see I added the last line for apache to load module php, restarted apache. Still nothing!

its looks enable there but try here log in to the ispconfig admin panel and check the domain your working on goto the /home/web.number/htdocs and try this vi info.php Code: <?php phpinfo() ?> if its load than PHP is working BTW : did u get the free DNS name problem fix ? ** edit : left out the "o" in info **
Thanks again. The phpinfo thing confirmed that php is working fine. Then why I can't view php files? For DNS problem, as I told you earlier I went into a fresh install of fedora 8 and installed Webmin instead of Ispconfig. I used the former for quite some time and I am familiar with it. I will be trying out a few things and will get back with the outcome. Thanks again for your help.
if you made the php files yourself check to see if you used <?php not <? i was having the same problem for ages where php files i was typing myself didn't work to i worked out what i was doing wrong if it something you downloaded than try running the chown -R zcworld:www /var/www/vhosts replace zcworld : with the account you use for normal access and the /var/www/vhosts with the path they are at good luck with it <personal for me : i dont use any webmain / ispconfig on my www box i know what im doing via command line but its an nice tool webmain is a tab evil / hard i found but i will learn it
He heee. I am pretty sure if I made the php files myself they will NEVER work! I use webmin to change the vhost folder permissions and user / group are changed to apache. This has always worked for me in the past. I will check DynDns and see if the Dynamic IP has been updated. That causes problems too. I am not a real guru in Linux, but I can take care of a few things. Also, all the help you can find on the web is interesting for linux dummies like myself! But sure you should try out webmin. It's a great tool! Cheers
90 % of the time on linux / BSD i cant find my way out of an wet paper bag but for what i do and i know what im doing 70 % of the time well do an an another look at the webmin
I know Linux is great. A pity I spent a long time on Microsoft garbage. But better late than never. But hey zcworld. Check out this : </VirtualHost> <VirtualHost *:80> DocumentRoot /var/www/html/phpmyadmin ServerName alcboard.ath.cx <Directory "/var/www/html/phpmyadmin"> </Directory> </VirtualHost> alcboard.ath.cx is a free dyndns domain. I checked dyndns and my public IP has been updated. Permissions on the phpmyadmin are OK and user/group = apache. Don't know why it wouldn't work!
i would of done ( if you got wildcard use turn on) sql.dns.name.here ok can you add an info.php with the <?php phpinfo() ?> its odd i get an empty page this is my conf file for my sql admin host <VirtualHost *> ServerName sql.admin.lan DocumentRoot /var/www/vhosts/admin/sql <Location /> Order deny,allow Deny from all Allow from shane.lan laptop.lan 192.168.1.102 AllowOverride None </Location> CustomLog /var/www/vhosts/admin/logs/sql_access.log combined ErrorLog /var/www/vhosts/admin/logs/sql_error.log </VirtualHost>
Hey Buddy. I sorted it out. Took the whole afternoon yesterday and part of the night and a few glasses of scotch. I removed fedora 8 and went back to my favorite fedora 7. Had to reinstall twice as F7 didn't detect my network card and I couldn't use yum for that reason. So I downloaded the drivers onto another computer and during install, it said there are no compilers installed. So I reinstalled F7 again with all the developer packages and this time it installed the driver. Now it works like a charm, both my registered domains and with the free ones. Pheeeewwwww ! But thanks buddy for your support.
