Perfect debian unable to access ISPConfig control panel

I am tempted to offer a Big Blue Button session to sort this out. But what would I do, yeah.

First of all, I'd probably check if apache2ctl -t shows any notices or warnings.
Make a test request using curl -H https:// 8080 from localhost and form a remote server the same way.
Set the loglevel to trace in /etc/apache2/apache.conf

If the ispconfig vhost and conf files in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
match against a working setup with that version. And if it overwrites the loglevel.

If the paths in the files are correct for certificates,
php config ( though the ispconfig php-cgi is running, maybe it is started by a *wrong* file )
logging.
For any interfering vhost configs on that (sub)domain maybe.

Restart apache2 and check all the logs for any signs of issues.
Make a request like
curl -H https:// :8080 again

restart apache2 with non trace loglevel and look for any signs of issues in the more descriptive
output.

Maybe the Listen 8080 part in your apache config is bound to a specific IP like "Listen 127.0.0.1:8080"
for some reason, which would explain why wget locally works but not for remote.

>>> apachectl -t

Code:

AH00548: NameVirtualHost has no effect and will be removed in the next release /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-ispconfig.vhost:7
Syntax OK

>>> if this line does not have any effect then obviously ispconfig control panel does not work, right.

on the interim, working on the other points you mentioned.

 

If you have namevirtualhost setting on for your server ips it will get written back using the default template,
for now you can leave it as it is

I have that, too =) But I think the website domain adding thing behaves differently if you check namevirtualhost, don't know. I do not use ISPConfig for myself or on a daily basis. I just know some customers where this makes some sense.
Key feature of ISPConfig is multi-server settings for GUI users.

 

thanks Till and Christoph together,
ok, not changing



j cant find mpm_itk module in my mods_available directory. researching about it

 

got it till. thanks

 

i already did it and got an useless reply, i guess. i will try to rephrase the question again :-(

 

Code:

root@server1:/etc/apache2/mods-available# ufw disable
Firewall stopped and disabled on system startup
root@server1:/etc/apache2/mods-available# ufw status
Status: inactive

still same result in the browser

 

their reply for this message

 

is it normal

Code:

root@server1:/etc/apache2/mods-available# lsof -i :8080

This is the final answer which Vultr has to say

 

I get the ISPConfig login and valid LE cert on port 8080

 

it turned out while trying to set parental controls for my son, i accidentally set security to high in my router. extremely sorry folks

 

ahahaha all good man, things like that can happen at least you figured and did not start a new install
