    yes, I have tried:
    installing zlib, I also tried
    rm -f /bin/sh
    ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh

    Hope someone has some tips for me.. I followed the install from the perfect server guide, here on howtoforge.

    Ps. I took the 64bit Ubuntu server, not the 32.. Dont know if this matters?
    I seem to remember that there was some error when I installed the PHP, and had to cut out something from the syntax.-

    Ok, I'm currently trying to redo all steps on the server.
    Still get this error on the PHP, which I think may be what crashes the ISPconfig?

    ---

    EDIT:
    I may have solved the issue..

    Seems I did nothing wrong, but on 64 bit, you have to run this command too:

    sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

    Im further down on the installation path now and I recreated all steps and everything was correctly installed.
    Seems also the failed php module as I refer to above, is also installed in the common package, so I dont have to think more about that one.

    Please make sure that you install and use the zlib package that comes with ubuntu and not a zlib that yoiu compiled manually. Did you follow exactly the ISPConfig installation Guide for Ubuntu 7.10?

    yes, I have even done it again..
    However, what I THINK is the problem now, is that I am running 64bit.

    I googled some today and some guy said something about compiling PHP on 64bit, that you had to edit a "makefile". But I dont know where this makefile is? Tried looking for it.

    ISPConfig works and compiles perfectly on 64Bit Systems and PHP has no problems with 64Bit too.

    The problem is that you installed / compiles a version of the zlib library manually, which is not from Ubuntu and is compiled with the wrong parameters. The default ubuntu libraries are never installed in /usr/local/lib/

    What you might try is:

    mv /usr/local/lib/libz.a /usr/local/lib/libz.a.old

    and then unpack ISPConfig again and run the setup script.

    Thank you! You where correct on the zlib issue!

    Now it installed properly, connected to the db, etc. but I have done something wrong when making the ssl certificate, so I cant acecss the admin :S

    Guess I'll have to rtfm, lol.. I'll try recreating it later today, or maybe reinstall and use http instead of https... hmm.. anyways, thx :)

    I get the same PHP error, even though i have the zlib package installed. However I am not using Ubuntu server, but Xubuntu instead. I hope you can help.

    Hi, try this:
    sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

    Also, double check that you have all your configurations set up as in the perfect server guide.

    You also have to fix the default shell, etc. as per. the guide.
    If it still does not work, I would try to wget the tar file again and unpack it with tar -zxvf

    I had no problems installing it after I moved the zlib, but before I installed the zlib, I had problems.

    Only thing I can think might have been the problem, is that I did not have the libssl-dev, as all my configurations where a-ok.

    What's the exact error message you're getting now?
    Are you sure you followed the Perfect Setup as close as possible?

    I've followed perfect setup, but have got the same error...

    Tried: installing zlib

    then tried to install zlib using apt-get install zlib-bin

    then tried "mv <...> libz.a" command from prev. page

    But error still persists. Could you help me?

    Apache&php5 for ISPConfig installation should start immediately after "./setup" command?

    EDITED: no... :)
