hi, i received an error The URL is not reachable! in the final stage of installation Please enter your MySQL server:localhost Please enter your MySQL user: xyz Please enter your MySQL password: MySQL password Please enter a name for the ISPConfig database: database Please enter the IP address of the ISPConfig web:192.168.0.1 Please enter the host name: E.g. www Please enter the domain: abc.com The URL is not reachable! it's asking for the hostname again -please enter the domain: i can ping server1.abc.com output of hostname command server1.abc.com what should i do?
resolv.conf output of resolv.conf search abc.com nameserver 127.0.0.1 nameserver isp-dns-server nameserver isp-dns-server i tried it with even nameserver 192.168.0.1 (host IP) still doesn't work.
i entered www in hostname and abc.com in domain Please enter the host name: www Please enter the domain: abc.com The URL is not reachable! this happened for the 2nd time also(format & install ). I remember very well that i gave www in the place of hostname. I guess I get this error only when i try it with a registered domain. when i tried it first with a domain that doesn't exists like dummydomain.com the installation went fine. i was able to access the ispconfig box using its IP. pls help me out
The Domain you enter in the installer must be reachable with ping. You can try this before you install ISPCOnfig with: ping -c 3 www.abc.com
unknow host the output of ping -c 3 www.abc.com ping: unknown host www.abc.com the SSL issue is over. i changed the domain name in ispconfig--server--settings to abc.com and hostname to www using https://192.168.0.1:81/ my registrar doesn't have anything named A record there was a link - Register & Manage Nameservers i entered ns1 and selected my domain then entered my static IP. i think this would create A record. then i changed the name server of abc.com to ns1.abc.com 2 things i need are : ping -c 3 www.abc.com to resolve ww.abc.com how do i check if A record is created at my registrar's end. i've created A record pointing to my Lan IP in line with this. http://www.howtoforge.com/ispconfig_dns_godaddy_p3 i am trying to setup a dns server abc.com(no Mails) then add xyz.com in the same machine for mail. just one machine. pls help me out. thanks again for helping with the SSL issue.
how do i check if the A record is created at my registrar's end. i've created the A record pointing to my Lan IP in my ISPconfig Box in line godaddy conf
before starting ISPconfig Installation ensure you are able to ping www.yourdomain.com. you should get reply from your Static IP. if you get that everything is fine. if you are not able to ping www.yourdomain.com it's probably because your changes at the domain registrar's end like name server , A record are not updated. you can also continue the installation using ispconfig server IP and later make the changes but for the changes to take effect it would take few hours. if u have changed the name servers , A record it may take anywhere from 24 hours to 72 hours. normally it gets updated within 24 hours. have a nice day
