Websites and subdomains

[otacon]

I just want to know if this is normal or what.

in my /var/www/ I see my first website remcycle.net.

I did this a long time ago, so I am not sure if this is normal or not.. I created a new website isthatconstitutional.com, but it is not in the www folder. It says in the that it is hosted in web9 of client0.

I go to clients/client0 and there are only two folders "remcycle.net" "web2".

Where would new websites be added?

I tried to do a sub domain of remcycle.net and can't find where that is hosted either...


I added test.remcycle.net to my subdomains. This seems to make /var/www the root as I can go to test.remcycle.net/ispconfig and get to the control panel.

Is this normal and I am just doing everything wrong, or could my installation be corrupt in some way?

ispconfig 3.0.3.1

Thats all ok, you mix up directories and symlinks. Also subdomains are vhost aliases and not vhosts.

All websites are created in /var/www/clients/client[ID]/web[ID]. Then there are some symlinks for easier shell navigation, e.g. a symlink in /var/www/. Subdomains are vhost aliases, they dont have its own directory. If a subdomain shall have its own directory, then you create a new website for it. Thats explained in detail in the manual.

Yeah... I understand now. So in order for test.remcycle.net to have it's own /var/www/clients/client[id]/web[id] I need to make a website and not a subdomain for remcycle.net.


.... So I created a website called test.remcycle.net and it is suppose to be the id = 10 from client 0. I am still not seeing /var/www/clients/client0/web10. I only see remcycle.net and web2 (one is a symlink to the other). I have also created isthatconstitutional.com and isthatconstitutional.us, but they also are not in the clients folder. I think ispconfig is not creating the vhosts like it should.



server1:/etc/apache2/sites-available# ls
apps.vhost default-ssl ispconfig.vhost ssl
default ispconfig.conf remcycle.net.vhost


Should the vhost for test.remcycle.net, isthatconstitutional.com, and isthatconstitutional.us be in the above folder?


Searched for the vhost and none was found


server1:/etc/apache2/sites-available# find / -name test.remcycle.net.vhost
server1:/etc/apache2/sites-available# find / -name isthatconstitutional.us.vhost

[till]

It takes some time until the folders get created. You can check that in the jobqueue of the monitor. All pending jobs are listed there.

[otacon]

oh no I five pages of stuff in my job queue... not good.


First entry is "2010-11-10 00:42 server1.remcycle.net Insert mail_user"


-that is probably when I was testing my api and couldn't get it to work.


It doesn't give me an error in the job queue, but I will look in the other logs.

[otacon]

I enabled Debugging and found out that there is a locked file.


I then changed the name of /usr/local/ispconfig/server/temp/.ispconfig_lock to /usr/local/ispconfig/server/temp/.ispconfig_lock.old, so it could create a new one.


Seems to be working so far as it is working its way through the 180 changes... this may take a while.


-----------------------


After a while I keep getting the message that my file is lock.

I delete the locked file, but it just comes back.

Tried to do it manually and I get this

-----------------------

I tried to create the above directory, but it just makes [username]. Is there a way just to delete this job queue so I can have it do the rest?

[till]

I delete the locked file, but it just comes back.

Thats ok, it means that ispconfig is processing the jobqueue and to prevent that a second queue process is started, it locks the queue until it is finished.

Please delete all entrys in the sys_remoteaction table in the ispconfig database with phpmyadmin.

[otacon]

so I deleted all the rows (not any fields though), deleted the locked filed and ran the debugging manually.

Nothing pops up.


So I guess I will give it some time to clear the job queue and see if it works..




BTW: Till you are awesome.. I would dare to say that you are awesomeness in a box.. (more condensed awesomeness)

It has been an hour and it says "There is already an instance of server.php running. Exiting." for half an hour, then "There is already a lockfile set. Waiting another 10 seconds..."


As you have told me the lockfile is there so ispconfig will not do multiple things at a time and trip over itself, so when it alternates like the list below.

2011-03-24 11:17 server1.remcycle.net Debug There is already a lockfile set. Waiting another 10 seconds...

I am guessing that when it complains about another instance it is starting the next job in the queue. I have not seen anything drop from the job queue yet, but I completely understand that it may just take time for it to change the information due to the backup... just wish I could tell if it was working or not.

This is what I get from


server1:/var/vmail/dsad.dsa/$_POST[username]# /usr/local/ispconfig/server/server.sh
24.03.2011-12:21 - DEBUG - Set Lock: /usr/local/ispconfig/server/temp/.ispconfig_lock

--------------------------

Ok so I deleted the \$_POST\["username"\] and create mkdir '$_POST["username"]'


Woot the queue is now empty.
