To test if Spamassassin works with the new ruleset, run this command:

/home/admispconfig/ispconfig/tools/spamassassin/usr/bin/spamassassin –lint

If it does not return an error message, then Spamassassin is working correctly.

I will use VPSID as placeholder for the ID of the virtual machine in the commands and the script. Replace VPSID with the id of the virtual machine that you want to create the script for, e.g. replace VPSID with 101.

Create the script:

vi /etc/vz/conf/VPSID.mount

and insert the following lines:

#!/bin/bash
mount -n –bind -onosuid,noexec /vz/vps/VPSID/tmp /vz/root/VPSID/tmp
mount -n –bind -onosuid,noexec /vz/vps/VPSID/shm /vz/root/VPSID/dev/shm
exit ${?}

now make the sscript executable:

chmod 700 /etc/vz/conf/VPSID.mount

I used this to migrate a ISPConfig Debian system to OpenVZ successfully.

Add a .htaccess file with the following content in the root directory of the website:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.domain\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]

If you use ISPConfig as hosting control panel, you can add these rules also in the Apache directives field of the website instead of a .htaccess file

Description of the bug:

https://secure.grepular.com/blog/index.php/2010/01/01/spamassassin-2010-bug/

To fix this, run the following command on the shell as root user:

sa-update

If you use the software ISPConfig 2 on your server, run this command:

/home/admispconfig/ispconfig/tools/spamassassin/usr/bin/sa-update

1) Stop the mysql server

/etc/init.d/mysql stop

2) Start the mysql server manually without permission tables which allows us to login as root user without password:

mysqld_safe –skip-grant-tables &

3) Login into mysql as root user without a password and switch to the “mysql” database:

mysql -u root mysql

Then execute this SQL query to set a new password for the mysql root user:

update user set Password=PASSWORD(‘mynewpassword’) WHERE User=’root’;

(Replace “mynewpassword” with the new root password in the above command).

Then logout from the mysql prompt by typing:

exit

4) Now bring back the running mysql instance into the foreground by typing:

fg

and then press [ctrl] + c to kill the mysql process.

5) Start the mysql server again:

/etc/init.d/mysql start

suPHP_ConfigPath /home/websites/domain.tld/

Then add a php.ini file in the directory /home/websites/domain.tld/ which may be a copy of the global php.ini were you just changed a few settings or an empty file were you add only the settings that shall be overridden in the global PHP configuration.

If you use ISPConfig 2 or 3, you can add the suPHP_ConfigPath setting also in the apache directives field of the website  in ISPConfig.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub.domain.tld [NC]
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /sub/$1 [L]

This rewrite rule can be added into a .htaccess file in the website root or inside the vhost file. If you use ISPConfig 2 or 3, you can add this also into the apache directives field in the website settings.

Replace sub.domain.tld with the subdomain that shall be redirected and /sub/ with the path to the directory were the pages for this subdomain are located.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}$1 [L,R]

The apache rewrite rule can be added in a .htaccess file in the website root directory or if you use ISPConfig 2 or 3, you can also add the rwrite rule into the apache directives field of the website.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

If you use ISPConfig 2 or 3, you can add these lines also in the apache directives field of  the website settings form instead of adding them to a .htaccess file. But the approach with the .htaccess file will work on ISPConfig as well.
