    I have a rather small (well Large) problem where any changes made in ISPConfig aren't written to any config file. New sites aren't setup and DNS entries aren't setup or removed properly. I've looked for ispconfig.log but that doesn't exisit. Any ideas?

    Writeconf.php has just failed on a segmenation fault!!! took 4 minutes to come through - I have also followed the php downgrade by Till

    Most likely the permissions of the bind directories are wrong. Please reconfigure bind as described in the perfect setup guide for your linux distribution. Downgrading PHP is not nescessaery and not recommended for the current releases and may cause problems.

    Hi Till,

    I've done that already and it made no difference. I understand that if the bind permissions were set incorrectly then ISPConfig wouldn't be able to right to bind files, But how does this stop it writing Apache files?

    Anyway to the point, still nothing appears in apache or bind.

    What happens when you run
    Code:
    /root/ispconfig/php/php /root/ispconfig/scripts/writeconf.php
    on the shell?

    The script runs for a bit then fails on a segmentation fault

    Can you post the exact output?

    Which distribution are you using?
    Is it a 32bit or 64bit system?

    We're currently using CentOS 5.2 32Bit.

    Out put from running the request command is: -

    -------------------------

    [root@server1 ~]# /root/ispconfig/php/php /root/ispconfig/scripts/writeconf.php

    [root@server1 ~]#


    -----------------------

    I've just run the command again and this is the usual response that i get

    -----------------------------------------

    [root@server1 ~]# /root/ispconfig/php/php /root/ispconfig/scripts/writeconf.php
    start
    Segmentation fault
    [root@server1 ~]#


    -------------------------------------------

    Can you install ISPConfig again over the existing ISPConfig installation? Hopefully this creates a working PHP...

    Hi falko,

    We have tried with a re-install over the orginial system and after moving all our clients to a different server tried a fresh install of ISPConfig. We have opted to start with a fresh base install, aiming this decision as a problem somewhere within the OS. I believe it maybe an system update that may have broke the system but can't be quite sure.

    Segmentation faults can also be caused by hardware failures. I'd check the RAM with memtest.
