which pakackes for ispconfig?`

[guybrush]

hi

one more question ;-)
which packages need to be installed before ispconfig?
my setup stoppen for the x-th time, because openssl was not installed, thy mysql-devel was not there, and so on.
it´s anoing to retype my data everytime i want to create the certificates, just to see a few minutes later that the setup is not working.

i didn´t found a list on the website, so i thought it would be a good idea to ask here ;-)

thx in advance

On http://www.ispconfig.org/manual_installation.htm it reads:

Important: Be sure to have installed gcc, flex and all the other tools neded for compiling sources before you run ./setup! You also need to install the MySQL header files which normally come in a package called mysql-devel, mysql-dev, libmysql-devel or something similar. Otherwise PHP5 will not compile, and the installation of ISPConfig stops!

The installation sript checks if the following software is installed:

* Apache webserver,
* Mail Transport Agent (MTA): Sendmail or Postfix,
* Procmail,
* Quota,
* MySQL,
* ProFTP or vsftpd,
* OpenSSL,
* Bind8 / Bind9,
* iptables or ipchains.

If any of the packages is not present, the installation routine stops. Install the missing package, delete the directoy install_ispconfig, unpack ISPConfig again and start from the beginning.

You can also have a look at a sample setup for your distribution:

well, flex, gcc, mysql-devel is already installed. the script just doens´t checks at the beginning, if the files are installed, it checks for them if it needs them, and thats rather anoing if you follow the installation for 5-10 minutes and then it stops again ;-)

but thanks again for your help!!
