stuck on default welcome page

Hi everyone,

I have installed ISP Config 3 following the perfect install to debian squeeze with no apparent problems. After install, I added a website through the admin console logged in as admin.

I get the Welcome to your website! page. When I upload a website via ftp I cannot seem to get past this page. If I so to www.domain/sometingelse.html I get a 404. If I rename the index.html and put a different one I get a page that says something along the lines of "your webmaster has not added content"

I've been searching these boards and google, and pouring over the manual I purchased for several hours and am coming up blank. Can someone point me in the right direction.

thanks,

Jason

Files must have the right owner and permissions. Can you post a ls -la from your web/ directory??

here it is. This issue happens for any website I create.

Code:

root@Websrv1:/var/www/clients/client1/thealvarados.com/web# ls -la

total 28

drwx--x--- 5 web1 client1 4096 Aug  6 18:30 .

/var/www/clients/client1/thealvarados.com/web has the wrong permissions. Please try

Code:

chmod 755 /var/www/clients/client1/thealvarados.com/web

chmod 755 /var/www/clients/client1/thealvarados.com/

root@websrv1:/var/www/clients/client1/thealvarados.com/web# chmod 755 /var/www/clients/client1/thealvarados.com/web

The previous permissions were correct, so there was no need to change them. You get the default index pahe bevcause the new index page you uploaded has a wrong name.

Please deleete the file index.html that is currently in the web directory and rename you "Home.htm" page to "index.html". On Linux servers, the homepage is named index.htm or index.html and not Home.htm like on windows servers. Additionally, it matters on Linux if you bame a file in upper or Loewercaee as these are different filenames. So it is recommended that you name you files alwas lowercase.

Thanks for the responese. That was one of the steps I tried. What I was doing ws renaming index.html to _index.html. In this instance did what you recommended and now the page says:

Code:

This site is under development

 This is a default template, indicating that the webmaster has not yet uploaded a Web site to the server.

 

For information on how to build or upload a site, please visit your web hosting company's site.

Any ideas?

Ok, so the text that you see in the browser has changed? Then you did the right thing and renamed the correct page.

The text did change. But it is now some sort of default webpage from apache or ispconfig? It's definately not the page that was created.

It has the text above, plus like a relate items search page.

Please post a screenshot of that page. No default page from ispconfig has a search function inside.
