ISPconfig to host multiple domains in one IP with multiple DynDns addresses

[agelospanagiotakis]

Can i use ISPconfig to host multiple domains in one IP with multiple DynDns addresses ?

how can i make the panel work on these domains for example a.homelinux.org , a.homelinux.org

I have thse multiple domains pointing throgh DynDNS to my dynamic ip.

I use a [k] ubuntu 6.06 "perfect setup" with ISPConfig with work perfectly
under https://a.homelinux.org:81 or https://b.homelinux.org:81
how can configure ISPconfig to point to directory
/var/www/web1/web/ for http://a.homelinux.org
/var/www/web2/web/ for http://b.homelinux.org

[adamluz]

Set each one up as a domain

a.homelinux.org
b.homelinux.org

ISPConfig will auto create the folders and the config.

They will be accessable under www.a.homelinux.org and a.homelinux.org

[agelospanagiotakis]

Hostname: www ????
Domain:a.homelinux.org

i tried it creates the folder but when i acces it i get for
http://www.agelospanagiotakis.homelinux.org/
server not found!

and for
http://agelospanagiotakis.homelinux.org/
"Access forbidden!
You don't have permission to access the requested directory. There is either no index document or the directory is read-protected.

the file

is empty ...anything it contains is some comments

how did him : visit ( www.whittyhost.us.to :) ) - please visit him ! ... did it with ISPconfig ?

[till]

You posted the wrong hhtpd.conf. The ISPConfig webserver is not used to host your webpages. Please post the content of the file Vhosts_ispconfig.conf? That file is in /etc/httpd/conf or /etc/apache2/conf or similar that falko requested.

[jeskimo5]

My problem is that when I try to access my site, I get a page that says:
This IP address is shared. For access to the web site which you look for, enter its address instead of its IP. For questions or problems please contact the server administrator.

Does any one know how I may remedy this problem, btw, I am also using dyndns domains of the .homelinux.net sort.

[till]

Please make sure that you select the internal IP in the website settings, not the external IP.

[jeskimo5]

Here's this file if it answers your question. Sorry if I'm not more helpful but I'm rather new at this.

Obviously the website is jeskimo5.homelinux.net

My DynDNS = eron.hobby-site.com

If I enter eron.hobby-site.com or fiwiyaad.com or www.fiwiyaad.com I get the following error (with the appropriate domain in the text) : -

While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.fiwiyaad.com/defaultsite

The following error was encountered:

The system returned:

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to correct this please? :o

[jeskimo5]

After some fiddling something clicked and now my sites work. However when log into Ispconfig and try to ftp up some of my webpages I find that the only option i have is to put my webpages in directories stemming from vars not /vars mind you. I've included a screen shot that will hopefully help to explain things.
I realize that i do not have an index file in the ispconfig window. It had already been moved manually to the proper directory

[till]

1) Which user disd you use to login with FTP?
2) Did you enable the administrator checkbox for this user?

[jeskimo5]

I logged in as a client. I'm not sure where this check box you speak of is.

[jeskimo5]

this is my checklist for you

1. make sure that your dyndns address is pointed at your server, or network as the case may be. In my case I use a little app on a windows machine in my network that keeps my external ip address current and my domains pointing to it. You can find this little deal somewhere on dyndns's site.

2. I believe it works best when your setting up a site to put in the hostname field the firstpart of your domain ie: eron Then where it asks you for your domain name put in hobby-site.com

This is what worked for me and its probably not a complete answer but I hope it helps.

Thank you very much gentlemen my questions have been answered.

I had already done that jeskimo5 but I still get the same shared IP page after having loaded a single index.html page via ISPConfig's FTP page.

Any ideas?? :confused:

[till]

If you get the shared IP page, you either selected the wrong IP address or your domain name does not point to the IP with a DNS A-Record. Domain redirects will not work.

I am not sure how to resolve this Till.

I have a DynDNS domain (eron.hobby-site.com) because of my dynamic IP address. I have purchased a domain name (fiwiyaad.com) and configured the DNS record of my ISP to reflect the CName eron.hobby-site.com.

In ISPConfig I have created a DNS entries as per the below image : -

http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=327&stc=1&d=1167265893

What exactly do I need to do. I have obviously not done it correctly because even though I can now type fiwiyaad.com into the browser and get the correct page; it doesn't work with my DynDNS domain name nor the https://fiwiyaad.com:81. I have to type the IP address (e.g. https://10.10.0.10:81 to get to the ISPConfig 'admin' page. :o

PS In an effort to get it right I have deleted all records from the ISPConfig and started again so the /etc/apache2/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf file has now changed and the line DocumentRoot /var/www/web2/web now reads DocumentRoot /var/www/web7/web (and so too does all other appropriate lines from that file.

I am not sure how to resolve this Till.
