In ISPConfig 3 (CentOS 5.4) all of my sites have PHP set to Mod-PHP, when I am in Joomla Admin > Help > System Info > Directory Permissions are all unwritable. Joomla Front Page and Joomla Admin are working as expected. The problem I am having is that I am unable to install any modules, components, plugins, etc. This is fresh joomla install from last night. I'm not sure If I need to "chown" anything on ISPConfig 3 for my Joomla installations. I had to do "chown" in ISPConfig 2 for each joomla site? Anyone knows workaround for this issue? For example: administrator/backups/ Unwritable administrator/components/ Unwritable administrator/language/ Unwritable administrator/language/en-GB/ Unwritable administrator/modules/ Unwritable administrator/templates/ Unwritable components/ Unwritable images/ Unwritable here's the output of my ls -la web Code: total 288 drwx--x--- 19 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 21:33 . drwxr-x--x 6 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 19:59 .. drwxr-xr-x 11 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 21:25 administrator drwxr-xr-x 2 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:11 cache -rw-r--r-- 1 web25 client0 102201 Jun 28 20:11 CHANGELOG.php drwxr-xr-x 17 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:11 components -rw-r--r-- 1 web25 client0 1750 Jun 28 21:50 configuration.php -rw-r--r-- 1 web25 client0 3411 Jun 28 20:11 configuration.php-dist -rw-r--r-- 1 web25 client0 1172 Jun 28 20:11 COPYRIGHT.php -rw-r--r-- 1 web25 client0 15050 Jun 28 20:11 CREDITS.php drwxr-xr-x 2 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 19:59 error -rw-r--r-- 1 web25 client0 894 Jun 28 21:28 favicon.ico drwxr-xr-x 4 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 21:27 FILES -rwxr-xr-- 1 web25 client0 0 Jun 28 19:59 htaccess1.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 web25 client0 2773 Jun 28 20:11 htaccess.txt drwxr-xr-x 7 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:11 images drwxr-xr-x 8 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:12 includes -rw-r--r-- 1 web25 client0 588 Jun 28 20:11 index2.php -rwxr-xr-- 1 web25 client0 1861 Jun 28 19:59 index.html -rw-r--r-- 1 web25 client0 2049 Jun 28 20:11 index.php -rw-r--r-- 1 web25 client0 4344 Jun 28 20:11 INSTALL.php drwxr-xr-x 4 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:12 language drwxr-xr-x 16 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:12 libraries -rw-r--r-- 1 web25 client0 17816 Jun 28 20:11 LICENSE.php -rw-r--r-- 1 web25 client0 27986 Jun 28 20:11 LICENSES.php drwxr-xr-x 2 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:12 logs drwxr-xr-x 4 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:12 media drwxr-xr-x 33 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:12 modules drwxr-xr-x 11 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:12 plugins -rwxr-xr-- 1 web25 client0 304 Jun 28 20:11 robots.txt drwxr-xr-x 2 web25 client0 4096 Jun 29 00:30 stats drwxr-xr-x 7 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:12 templates drwxr-xr-x 2 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:13 tmp drwxr-xr-x 4 web25 client0 4096 Jun 28 20:13 xmlrpc Thanks!
Yes, delete the site, and start with that. If that doenst work, see the worldpress example in the forum, and joomla is the same (only tried worldpress).
ISPConfig & Joomla 1.5 [Solved] I've recreated the site in ISPConfig 3, checked SuEXEC + Fast-CGI, I still had problems with joomla install. I had to run Code: chmod -R 777 /var/lib/php/session after that everything was fine. Thanks ivomendonca for your help.
