Hello and good morning. I am having a problem when users goto www.yourname.com The site that is appearing is one of the first sites that I setup but when users goto yourname.com, everything works and resolves correctly. What could the problem be? Thank you!
there are a few places you need to check... First look in the bind named.conf file for how your ISPConfig is storing the Bind data. Here will will find something like this. (mine is located at /var/named/chroot/var/named/) Code: $TTL 86400 @ IN SOA ns1.yourdomain.com. admin.yourdomain.com. ( 2009010101 ; serial, todays date + todays serial # 28800 ; refresh, seconds 7200 ; retry, seconds 604800 ; expire, seconds 86400 ) ; minimum, seconds ; NS ns1.yourdomain.com. ; Inet Address of name server 1 NS ns2.yourdomain.com. ; Inet Address of name server 2 ; MX 10 s1.yourdomain.com. erikwestlake.com. A 127.0.0.1 www A 127.0.0.1 yourdomain.com. TXT "v=spf1 a mx ptr ~all" ;;;; MAKE MANUAL ENTRIES BELOW THIS LINE! ;;;; ensure you have the www A record (or you could make it a CNAME if you like) Next check the Apache configuration files. (mine is /etc/apache/vhosts/) Code: ###################################### # Vhost: www.yourdomain.com:80 ###################################### # # <VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80> SuexecUserGroup nobody web1 ServerName www.yourdomain.com:80 ServerAdmin [email protected] DocumentRoot /var/www/web1/web ServerAlias yourdomain.com DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php index.php5 index.php4 index.php3 index.shtml index.cgi index.pl index.jsp Default.htm default.htm Alias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/web1/cgi-bin/ AddHandler cgi-script .cgi AddHandler cgi-script .pl ErrorLog /var/www/web1/log/error.log AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .php5 php_admin_flag safe_mode Off AddType text/html .shtml AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml AddType application/vnd.wap.wmlscriptc .wmlsc .wsc AddType text/vnd.wap.wml .wml AddType text/vnd.wap.wmlscript .ws .wmlscript AddType image/vnd.wap.wbmp .wbmp Alias /error/ "/var/www/web1/web/error/" ErrorDocument 400 /error/invalidSyntax.html ErrorDocument 401 /error/authorizationRequired.html ErrorDocument 403 /error/forbidden.html ErrorDocument 404 /error/fileNotFound.html ErrorDocument 405 /error/methodNotAllowed.html ErrorDocument 500 /error/internalServerError.html ErrorDocument 503 /error/overloaded.html AliasMatch ^/~([^/]+)(/(.*))? /var/www/web1/user/$1/web/$3 AliasMatch ^/users/([^/]+)(/(.*))? /var/www/web1/user/$1/web/$3 <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^(TRACE|TRACK) RewriteRule .* - [F] </IfModule> </VirtualHost> If you have all this up as it is, reload apache and named and you should be good. Let me know if this helps.
I'll check into this. I might add that I am using dynamic dns. This might be pertinent information. Also, I dont have a named.conf or vhosts file in opensuse 11.1 (I cant locate it). What else might it be? The A record is created with my dynamic dns provider so I do not have one (nor have I created it) on the ISPC3 server. Should I? I believe everything was working weeks ago. I updated to the newest ISP3 3.0.1.3 and this is when I noticed the problem. Not that the update caused the problem but everything was working awhile back. I dont know what could have changed.
Are you running BIND9 or any other DNS system? If not then there is your problem Dynamic DNS running of a company like DynDNS I would not recommend but I am not ISPConfig expert. The problem with Dynamic DNS is it makes it too difficult to keep track of the IP addresses and where they map within programs like this one.
I am running myDNS. I installed ISPC3 with not problems using the "How-To's" and resolution worked perfectly. Something has happened in the last few weeks or so and I believe it had something to do with the update because I have not checked the websites since updating. If my ddns service provide creates mx, cname and A records, do I need to create any others in ISPC3?
if your DNS is being handled by a third party I do not think you would need to put them into myDNS...However, I am no expert in that. I will leave this to the experts
I figured it out. You now have to set auto subdomain to "www" whereas before, you could leave it as default. I am assuming this was part of the 3.0.1.3 update. Can anyone confirm this?
