serwer wide applications

[nenad]

....with web-interface. How to install them?

Eg.

monitorix http://www.monitorix.org/ (I manged this to work on previos installation of ISPConfig, now I can't do that again..?)

cacti http://www.cacti.net/

nagois http://www.nagios.org/

all of them are installed by default in var/www/...

Simply create a new web site in ISPConfig and install these applications in the new web site.

OK, but when I install "monitorix" it places html files and cgi files into default directories:
(/var/www/html and /var/www/cgi).

Yum or apt-get don't ask me for location to install new applications.
So, I have to manually move them into
/var/www/web7/www directories
(and of course change everything in config files)

# Pathnames
our $BASE_URL="http://noc.homelinux.com" . $ENV{HTTP_HOST};
our $BASE_WWW="/var/www/web7/web";
our $BASE_CGI="/var/www/web7/cgi-bin/";
our $BASE_CGIM="/var/www/web7/cgi-bin/monitorix/";
our $BASE_DIR="/var/lib/monitorix/";

And even after that it won't work.
CGI part. Internal 500 server error.
http://noc.homelinux.com/monitorix/
http://noc.homelinux.com/cgi-bin/monitorix.cgi

I tested application on another pc (there's no ISPConfig installed) and applicatiopn works good.

For "cacti" server can't find any file, and all of them are there (and php enabled)
http://noc.homelinux.com/cacti/

You need to look in your error logs to see what file it is looking for, and not finding. That will point you in a direction as to where the configuration is jacked.

What version of Debian are you using? Generally when I install webapps through apt it installs to "/usr/share/<app_name>" and then I will need to add something to the apache configuration to find these files... something like:

Alias /cacti "/usr/share/cacti/htdocs"
<Directory "/usr/share/cacti/htdocs">
[insert standard directory babble here]
</Directory>

but I haven't installed cacti through apt...

Don't use FC4's packages! They will always be installed in default locations which doesn't work for you.
Use the source packages you can download from the respective web sites, and install them manually.

I am using FC3 on server (and FC4 and Mandriva on other PC's)

I think that files are found (if I delete them - cgi files - then there is File not found error)

Anyway, in which logs should I look for log errors for "Internal Server Error 500" ?

Apache logs? Where?

(4 days ago I installed this application , and it worked, and now I can't set it up again -- aarrghhh)

when I do:

perl -wc monitorix
it shows me that the script syntax is fine., I guess then that the error is not in perl, and that application works on another PC.

BTW Which package sources are not compatible?
livna against dag or fresh rpm or...?

It doesn't have anything to do with the repositories. It's just that the precompiled packages are installed to default directories like /var/www which isn't suitable for you because your web site is in /var/www/web1/web. Therefore you should use the source packages, e.g. for Monitorix: http://www.monitorix.org/monitorix-0.7.12.tar.gz

Ok, I will use source package, I just remebered that there is some issue with repositories, and I was wondering do you know in between which two of them. The question is not related to monitorix.
