ISPconfig update - no new users or details permitted

[cybere]

Hi,

Have recently upgraded an Fedora Core 5 ISPconfig installation. All other server operations are functional. ISPConfig has all previous details of all sites, all users etc. However, no existing users details may be altered. It keeps saying that the system is busy and goes no further. After waiting far too long, and checking/repairing databases, the same error occurs. Recycle bin is empty.
Reboot does not clear it up.

ISPconfig has operated flawlessly for over 12 months on version 2.2.6. Old I know, but it works. FC5 was updated, and then ISPconfig started playing up.

I am hesitant to upgrade ispconfig any further due to these problems. Is anyone able to shed some light on how I may repair this please?

Please make a screenshot of the error and post it here.

Hi Till,

Here is the only error message that is displayed within ISPConfig.

This error is displayed now after any attempt to alter user details. There is no specified time to wait, and having waited several hours, with no response/change/alteration to status, there is obviously something wrong. As stated earlier, checking and repairing DB has no effect.

TIA.

Please run:

/etc/init.d/ispconfig_server restart

then wait a few minutes and try again.

Hi Till,

>/etc/init.d/ispconfig_server restart

This command restarted the ispconfig server successfully. However, the problem still exists.

When i select a users details to view, the first page loads no problems. Here I am able to reset passwords, shell access checkboxes etc, but Advanced settings, Spam and Antivirus settings while displaying fine, are not permitting any changes to be made.

All other operations appear at this point to be fine.

Thanks again Till

Hi Till,

As per our previous 2 posts, if I open the users details, to the page where I wish to edit, THEN execute your above command, I am able to make changes and save. Then the problem continues again for any other users that I may need to edit. If i repeat this process, I may continue, again, though for only one page....

still testing...

Do you get any errors in the log file /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/ispconfig.log

Hi Till,

No error entries in the log you specified. Only perhaps 40lines of the following:
>
YYYY:x:10004:10001:YYYY:/var/www/web1/user/YYYY:/bin/false

Aside: Has anyone been able to install Acronis True Image on FC8 yet? I would like to build FC8 so long as I can get backups working on it. FC5 backup howtos fail on this system.

Thanks for your assistance to date Till.
