Hi all, I recently transferred a site from my old host to my ISPConfig installation and I'm getting this error. I would have thought that it was referring to the UID of the web3 user, but since ISPConfig doesn't make entries into the /etc/passwd file I don't get it. I've also looked at the minimum UID and GID within ISPConfig which are both set to 10000 by default. I can lower them, I guess, but I don't know what to lower them to. Any ideas? Thanks!
ISPConfig makes entries in the /etc/passwd file. Which user owns the index.php file and what is his uid?
Not in mine. I have an adminispconfig use and some users for the various services, but not 'web' users. Turns out the min UID and GIDs allowed are stored in /etc/suphp/suphp.conf. It's an SuPHP issue. I changed those numbers and all was good. I'm using the ISPConfig appliance so it seems really odd to me that a preconfigured appliance is misconfigured.
Yup, it's working now. I set the min UID and GID to 1. I figured setting it to 0 would be far too dangerous. I consider this a workaround rather than a fix. I'll investigate when I have more time and try to get suPHP and ISPConfig working well together.
min GID & UID I had the same issue in the same VM but mine turned out to be a problem with the site file credentials. I had tried to use the /standard_cgis/web/ folder as a skeleton. It worked fine except all the copied files were copied as "root" not as the suPHP user. Is there a way to change the owner with a script? The /web folder is user owned but files copied to it are root owned. Sam
You may add some commands to chown the files in /root/ispconfig/scripts/lib/ispconfig.lib.php. the file contains functions that where called when a web is inserted or updated.
