hi guys my first installation of ispconfig failed however the /home/admispconfig is exist which seems to be incompleted, at least its missing spamassasin, anyhow I tried to re-install the ispconfig and it doesn't ask the mysql password second time as I can't re-enter the installaiton will lead to failure as below. I'm a total newbie in linux enviroment so may be something very simple for you. thanks Code: ########## INSTALLATION ########## Preparing files.

Your ISPConfig system is now installed. If you had to install quota, please take the steps described in the installation manual. Otherwise your system is now available without reboot. [root@host install_ispconfig]#
Before you can reinstall ISPConfig, you must delete the failed installation parts. rm -rf /root/ispconfig rm -rf /home/admispconfig The unpack the installer tar.gz file again and run the setup script.
password not accepted I had a similar problem, and re-installing did not help. In the end i had to temporarily set the mysql root users password to an empty string. Then i started the install from scratch again and it worked fine. FYI, the neccessary SQL on my Debian/sarge box was: update user set password='' where user='root' and host='localhost'; flush privileges; I would recommend setting this back to a sane and secure value afterwards. You'll also need to edit the ispconfig files to reflect this change.
