    Been attempting to use this auto Installer for days. It is broken and does not work.
    Debian 12 NGINX.

    wget -O - https://get.ispconfig.org | sh -s -- --use-nginx --use-ftp-ports=40110-40210 --unattended-upgrades

    I was able to fix one resolver issue by adding a path but now I have another.

    Not sure what is going on with this Auto Installer but after several days of messing with it it does not appear to be working. Is there a better way to install ISP config. Not sure why the installer is more problematic than a manual install has ever been.

    This is not the autoinstaller that is broken; it's your server that has network problems. Your system is not able to resolve names correctly. You probably have IPv6 networking enabled on your system (on the operating system/network level), but IPv6 is not working. PHP (independent of ISPConfig or the auto installer) prefers IPv6 these days. So if you have IPv6 enabled, but it's broken, PHP must fail. And that's what you see. Now. So either you fix IPv6 and name resolution on your system, or disable IPv6. But having IPv6 enabled but not working can not work.

    Nothing, it works perfectly fine. I've installed several systems yesterday and today, all installs work flawlessly as usual.

    It is not. If networking on your server is broken, and that's currently the case, then this is not even related to the use of the auto-installer. And having a server without a properly working network makes no sense as all other software that uses the network will fail too. But of course, you can install ISPConfig manually by using the old perfect server guides, just to find out that your setup will fail after the installation due to network and name resolving problems.

    If you had fixed that, as you claim, you wouldn't get name resolving errors from PHP. So whatever you fixed, it did not solved your issue. You posted the proof above:

    Code:
    PHP Warning: file_get_contents(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo for www.phpmyadmin.net failed: Temporary failure in name resolution
    So PHP (not the auto installer) is not able to open files over the network because name resolution is not working on your system.

    Btw. the error messages above show you even which command you can use to test if you fixed networking, create a php script like test.php with this content:

    Code:
    <?php
echo file_get_contents("https://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/version.txt");
    and then run it with:

    Code:
    php test.php
    If it works, you will get this output:

    Code:

    OK, sounds like I need to get the networking in order. Had issues setting up
    204.12.225.98/29 network. Locked up the server network several times. What should the interfaces file look like?

    I currently have
    # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
    # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

    source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*

    # The loopback network interface
    auto lo
    iface lo inet loopback

    # The primary network interface
    allow-hotplug enp2s0
    iface enp2s0 inet static
    address 204.12.225.98/29
    gateway 204.12.225.97

    I am just going to reset this and get a fresh load. The only IPV6 configuration appears to be hosts file.

    root@mr1:/etc# cat hosts
    127.0.1.1 mr1.MyDomain.com mr1
    # 204.12.225.98 s254703.nocix.net s254703

    You're one of many lately blaming the installer and/or ispconfig for having problems while the real problem is network issues on the server in question.
    It really puzzles me how you guys think you will ever be able to manage and troubleshoot a server when even the most basic knowledge isn't there.

    Disable ipv6 globally in your server if you have no ipv6 addresses.
    Code:
    sudo sysctl --write net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
    (taken from one of the similar posts that could have been found using the search function)

    The hosts file is for nothing more than local resolving prior to dns and has nothing to do with ipv6 config of networkinterfaces.
    By the way, what happened to the line "127.0.0.1 localhost" in that file?

    If you're absolutely sure your ipv4 config is in order than you can try again and the installer will run just fine.

    Just beware that the command sudo sysctl --write net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1 is used in Linux only to temporarily disable IPv6 on all network interfaces.

    For thoroughness, it is often recommended to run additional commands for the default and loopback interfaces as well:
    Code:
    sudo sysctl --write net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1
sudo sysctl --write net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6=1
    Verify that IPv6 has been disabled by checking the value in the relevant /proc file via command like cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6 and if it shows an output of 1, it confirms that it is disabled.

    However, it is pertinent to consider that the changes made with sysctl --write (or sysctl -w) are not permanent and will be reset after a system reboot, so to permanently disable IPv6, you need to edit the system configuration files, such as /etc/sysctl.conf or a file in /etc/sysctl.d/, and add the configuration lines there.

    To re-enable IPv6 after using this command, run the same commands but set the value to 0. Re-enabling may sometimes require a network service restart or a full reboot to take effect on all interfaces.

    The above is a modified answer from Google Search Ai. ;)

    Same thing and If disabling IPV6 is required perhaps it should be a script option.

    Also, you are using this exact command, no other command-line flags?

    NO I am not sure and that is why I keep posting what I have. All I know is what has worked before, It appears that things have changed and Yes confirming hosts and interfaces files is probably the right direction. Additionally I do not see multiple IP examples. AS Far as education goes I am currently in school and it is all windows and CompTIA crap. Not sure how any body with an education makes a network run.

    The question that you should ask yourself is what's going on with your server and not what's going on with the auto-installer. The auto installer works perfectly fine, installed several systems today using it. You have an issue with name resolving, which makes the Linux standard command 'resolvconf' fail, which then makes the auto-installer stop. According to your error messages, the program unbound fails on your system, but the auto-installer has not installed unbound. So you or someone else must have installed it, and it fails now and blocks your server installation.

    You can try uninstalling unbound, then check that name resolving works (alternatively, try to install bind9 using the apt command as the auto-installer would install it later anyway), then run the auto-installer again. If this does not help, you can try the approach that someone described in the installer tutorial comments: https://www.howtoforge.com/comments/ispconfig-autoinstall-debian-ubuntu/

    This is in no way related to your installation problem or ISPconfig or the auto-installer, but I guess you know that? You have been registered here since 2011. What you see there is what you find in the log of any system connected to the internet. This is probably your first server or internet-connected device if you have not seen that yet. Any system with services on well-known ports, especially SSH, is contacted from other systems on the net (bots/scripts/malware), which try to break into your system, trying out common passwords etc. That's why you use a secure password for SSH root user, or even better, key-based authentication. So what you posted there is absolutely normal.

    Sorry Till,
    I keep trying to get this to work and am not having good luck. I started with a fresh install got all of my ip addreses working/enabled but still end up with the same problem. At one point I added resolvconf to the path but I still had issues. I figured I would stop here before I mess up this configuration.

    How have you become the root user on this system? If you use sudo, take care to use:

    Code:
    sudo -s
    and not just:

    Code:
    sudo
    As your PATH variable is wrong (paths incomplete) in recent Debian versions, when using sudo without -s option. See step 1 of the tutorial: https://www.howtoforge.com/ispconfig-autoinstall-debian-ubuntu/

    I have tried this auto install dozens of times.

    Yes it had an issue in the beginning by using su instead of su - which messed up the paths and caused problems.

    Unfortunately it still does not work as It has a hangup with phpmyadmin or ??
    HP Warning: file_get_contents(https://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/version.txt): Failed to open stream: Network is unreachable in /tmp/ispconfig-ai/lib/os/class.ISPConfigDebianOS.inc.php on line 306
    PHP Warning: Undefined array key 0 in /tmp/ispconfig-ai/lib/os/class.ISPConfigDebianOS.inc.php on line 308
    [ERROR] Exception occurred: ISPConfigOSException -> Command chown -R www-data:www-data '/var/lib/phpmyadmin' ; cd /tmp ; rm -f phpMyAdmin--all-languages.tar.gz ; wget https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin//phpMyAdmin--all-languages.tar.gz 2>/dev/null && tar xfz phpMyAdmin--all-languages.tar.gz && cp -a phpMyAdmin--all-languages/* /usr/share/phpmyadmin/ && rm -f phpMyAdmin--all-languages.tar.gz && rm -rf phpMyAdmin--all-languages failed. (/ispconfig.ai.php:15)

    It appears that phpmy admin is not downloading or ??
    root@mr1:/var/lib/phpmyadmin# ls
    tmp
    root@mr1:/var/lib/phpmyadmin# cd tmp
    root@mr1:/var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp# ls
    root@mr1:/var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp#

    Unfortunately the flags do not appear to be working properly since I did not get any meaningful error messages:
    root@mr1:~# wget -O - https://get.ispconfig.org | sh -s -- --use-nginx --use-ftp-ports=40110-40210 --unattended-upgrades --debug --interactive
    root@mr1:/# cat /tmp/ispconfig-ai/var/log/ispconfig.log
    cat: /tmp/ispconfig-ai/var/log/ispconfig.log: No such file or directory

    There is an error log unfortunately it does not appear to provide any useful information

    About the only thing I can confirm is that I have been able to properly configure the IPV4 portion of the interfaces file for a 204.12.225.98/29 network
    I have no idea how the ipv6 should look. As the IPV6 may be messing up the phpmyadmin download.
