ISPConfig 2:

All users belonging to that site can log in with their username and password.

If there are no users you can log in like this:

Username: admin
Password: stats

ISPConfig 3:

The password for the statistic login can be set on the “stats” tab in the website settings. The username is always “admin”.

If the package webalizer is installed on your system you can find the statistics of the respective site in the folder stats (e.g. www.xyz.tld/stats/). The statistics are updated once a day. If you create a new site you will not see statistics at once.

Never edit the vhost file manually. On the next update of the system your changes will be overwritten! Instead put your additional vhost configuration in the Apache Directives field in the ISPConfig Interface.

If you want to add something manually to other files, e.g Postfix’ local-host-names, you can put your configuration at the end of the file in a section that is not overwritten by ISPConfig.

If you created a user named testuser for the web www.xyz.tld, you can reach his personal website on

www.xyz.tld/~testuser

or

www.xyz.tld/users/testuser

The ISPConfig checks the status of the services on localhost (IP: 127.0.0.1). It may be that some of your services only allow connections to specific IP addresses and not 127.0.0.1 (in Apache this is done with the Listen directive). If you allow connections to localhost the status will be shown correctly in the ISPConfig.

Another possibility is that the affected services do not run on the standard port intended for it.

Where is the ISPConfig 3 configuration file?

Tuesday, July 28, 2009 posted by Till

ISPConfig 3 has two different configuration files, one for the server part and one for the interface.

Interface:

/usr/local/ispconfig/interface/lib/config.inc.php

Server:

/usr/local/ispconfig/server/lib/config.inc.php

The mysql root password which is only used to create new mysql databases is stored in the file:

/usr/local/ispconfig/server/lib/mysql_clientdb.conf

Which virus- and Spam scanner is used by ISPConfig 3

Tuesday, July 28, 2009 posted by Till

ISPConfig 3 uses ClamAV (http://www.clamav.net) as virus scanner and spamassassin as spam scanner. Amavisd-new is used as content filter.

To turn on verbose logging (e.g. to debug FTP connection or authentication problems) inĀ  pure-ftpd FTP server on Debian and Ubuntu Linux, execute the following command as root user in the shell:

echo 'yes' > /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/VerboseLog

and then restart pure-ftpd

/etc/init.d/pure-ftpd-mysql restart

The debug output will be logged to syslog. To view the log content, execute:

tail -n 100 /var/log/syslog

To disable verbose logging, execute these commands:

rm -f /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/VerboseLog
/etc/init.d/pure-ftpd-mysql restart
