Well done! ISPConfig installed and configured correctly After followed an installation guide with 'ISPConfig 3.1: Automated installation on Debian 9', the ISPConfig was successfully installed but cannot reach the ISPConfig panel page, instead it reached the 'Apache2 Debian Default Page' (see the attached image) using only my public static IP address without any ports followed by, e.g. ip address + 8080. Tips to those who helped: This installation has root access permission, and ports has been opened before the installation as below: 20-22 25 53 80 110 443 3306 8080-8081 Thanks to Till's advise (and Taleman as well), below is the debug script result of this installation: ##### SERVER ##### IP-address (as per hostname): ***.***.***.*** [WARN] could not determine server's ip address by ifconfig [INFO] ISPConfig is installed. ##### ISPCONFIG ##### ISPConfig version is 3.1.13 [WARN] Could not connect to mysql with given user data. ##### VERSION CHECK ##### [INFO] php (cli) version is 7.0.30-0+deb9u1 ##### PORT CHECK ##### ##### MAIL SERVER CHECK ##### ##### RUNNING SERVER PROCESSES ##### [INFO] I found the following web server(s): Apache 2 (PID 23632) [INFO] I found the following mail server(s): Postfix (PID 23405) [INFO] I found the following pop3 server(s): Dovecot (PID 23454) [INFO] I found the following imap server(s): Dovecot (PID 23454) [INFO] I found the following ftp server(s): PureFTP (PID 23557) ##### LISTENING PORTS ##### --More--
Just run another test but it looks the same, please check the screenshot. Can you please give an example of the script outputs or other commands so I can do a text for what you are really looking for? The test result was based on the command below: First to login as root >> sudo -s then, wget -q -O htf-common-issues.php "this is the gitplace link (your forum doesn't allow new users to include a link on it)" && php -q htf-common-issues.php again use below command to get the result: cat htf_report.txt | more
Have run another test with the command below: php -q htf-common-issues.php --debug And the full result as below: The programs included with the Debian GNU/Linux system are free software; the exact distribution terms for each program are described in the individual files in /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.

You seem to have changed setup, this is different from the first report. What do commands show: Code: hostname hostname -f Not connecting to database pretty much renders ISPConfig and the services inoperable. are the database host, user and password correct? Try connecting from command line, for example, to verify the settings work.
Have only tried two different option for YES or No to installing the PHPMyAdmin along with this installation. Both the installation was successful and both of them are reached the Apache Debian default page. ISPConfig 3.1: Automated installation on Debian 9 The installation guide says: Due to a bug in dbconfig-common, we can't automate PHPMyAdmin installation for now. So hit 'enter' and on the next question select 'NO' (attention because the default is 'YES').
Just a guess, you did not run the test script as root. the test script must be run as root user to give correct results.
Please double check the code provided above: root@ip--xxx-xx-x-xxx:/home/admin# ping -c 3 8.8.8.8 The last couple times of test was run under the command, sudo -s from start to finish. Anyway, will test it again using just the sudo each time rather than sudo -s in one go.

The result looks ok so far so you should be able to reach ispconfig on port 8080. Please post the content of the ispconfig vhost file from /etc/apache2/sites-available/ folder.
You should consider using one of the official install guides (Perfect server guides) instead of that third party auto installer. You can find the list of install guides here: https://www.ispconfig.org/documentation/ The problem with an autoinstaller is that you don't see when a step fails which makes it complicated to debug at the end and autoinstallers fail easily when the base environment where you run it is not completely clean.
