System corrupted, after poweroff.

On the Digital Ocean droplet, using Ubuntu 16.04.4, after installing ISPConfig, through this shellscript and giving the command poweroff, to create the snapshot, the system returns corrupted and I lose all my Droplet. This has already occurred 5X. Do I need to stop some service before sending poweroff?

ShellScript Git --> servisys/ispconfig_setup

 

I use command

Code:

shutdown -h now

to cleanly stop the host. Give that a try.

 

I will take a test! Thank you!

 

Did not work! Droplet corrupted

 

I did a test with Debian 9 and everything seems to work fine, after poweroff, with ISPConfig3.
The problem is in Ubuntu + ISPConfig, installed from the self-installing shellscript. (Apache or Nginx
Dovecot or Courier
Quota
Jailkit
Squirrelmail or Roundcube
PHPMyadmin
MySQL
PHP7.0
Postfix
MTA
AntiVirus
Fail2ban
WebStats
Metronom
LetsEncrypt
ISPConfig3)
Another detail I realized is that ISPConfig hangs when I call the "poweroff" if the Droplet has only 1GB of memory. And that's what corrupts the system.

Keep my answer to future users who have the same problem.

ISPConfig3, installed by shellscript, only works well with Debian and with Droplet from 2BG+ of memory.

It's probably better not to rely on installation script. Or may be double check whether it really conforms to ISPConfig perfect server guides or manuals. So far, I do not have problem with Ubuntu + ISPConfig and even intend to upgrade to 18.04 once the stable upgrade is released.

 

Let me correct .... "Ubuntu lock when the call poweroff ..."

 

Have you ever needed to call poweroff on Ubuntu on a Digital Ocean droplet with ISPConfig installed by shellscript?

 

Nope. I don't use their vps. The only vps I used is amazon and the script worked just fine.

But I also did check and confirmed all softwares needed are properly installed afterwards.

My view, contact your service providers and ask them instead. They may know.

 

Have you checked everything works after the installation script? For example, disk is not full, the script actually did finish without errors, apt-get upgrade or apt-get install does not show packages that are half installed, etc. I suspect the system was broken before shutdown, so it was not the shutdown or poweroff that did the damage.

 

I just remember helping someone in installing a server in Scaleway (two/three months ago) using the same script, it was fine also. Try Taleman and till suggestions above.

 

I am playing around with ISPConfig in both single setup as well als multi server setup on Digital Ocean (And Vultr too) and I do not recognize these issues.
