Domains not working after configuring ISPConfig

[jchiera]

Hello, I have purchased the ISPConfig 3 manual today and I was using it to help me configure my web server. Let me explain what I was planning on doing. I wanted to have a site for my gaming clan (brl-clan.com <- I purchased this domain through godaddy) and a guild for my friend (forgedsouls <- I did not purchase this domain). I also wish to set up an email server too. I went through just about every page reading the information and following along. I made DNS records. I made a site where the domain is forgedsouls.com and the Auto-Subdomain is www. Under the Domains tab I have my domain forgedsouls.com and my correct client selected. But when I type in www.forgedsouls.com I do not see the ISPConfig welcome message. But when I type in brl-clan.com I do. Also when I try to access phpmyadmin through br-clan.com/phpmyadmin I get this error; Existing configuration file (./config.inc.php) is not readable. Another prolbem I am having is that I have squirrelmail installed and when I used to go to brl-clan.com/webmail I used to get the log in screen for Squirrlemail and I would get an error about my connection to IMAP Server dropped. But, now all I get i a blank screen and I can't do anything. Is there something else I have to configure? Or how about through the Godaddy DNS settings for my domain I purchased, or what.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I used this guide here; http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-se...64-ispconfig-3

-Thank You

Please select the IP address in the website settings instead of *. If the IP address dont show up in the list, add iot under system > server IP first.

[jchiera]

Okay, I will try this. Thank you. But, what IP should I use? My Local IP (192.168.1.103) or my ISP IP (67.240.97.233 ). Also, if I want to have 2 sites do I need 2 IPs?

The local IP address.

Also, if I want to have 2 sites do I need 2 IPs?

No, not for http. Only i you activate SSL (https), then you need a dedicated IP per website.

[jchiera]

I used 192.168.1.103 for my IP for forgedsouls.com. It still does not bring me to my ISPConfig welcome page. www.brl-clan.com, however does.

[jchiera]

Is there something else that I need to do? I really would like to use ISPConfig because of the email features and I can make multiple websites without buying multiple domain name through Godaddy.

forgedsouls.com pointsto a wrong IP. You must change the DNS record.

[jchiera]

Should I change the DNS record in the Godaddy configuration? Or do you mean a file in CentOS? Also, I did not purchase forgedsouls.com from Godaddy. I need to purchase a domain name? I thought ISPConfig allowed me to make domain names without purchasing them, but thinking about it now that would not make sense.

[falko]

Yes, you must register/buy a domain name. You cannot make up domain names on your own and create them through ISPConfig.

[jchiera]

Sorry I did not respond for a while. I purchased the domain shenangiansguild.com from godaddy. I tried putting my NameServers I set in ISPConfig under the DNS tab (ns1.brl-clan.com and ns2.brl-clan.com) and when I try to set those it says they are not registered and I put them into my DNS records. When I go to shenanigansguild.com I get the ISPConfig Welcome screen, but where do I go to put a forum board on it? I am using CentOS and I looked in /var/www/html but I did not see a folder for shenanigans guild or anything.

What do I need to edit in my DNS Records from the GoDaddy site so I can use my DNS Servers, email, etc?

Also, I still get an error when I go to www.brl-clan.com/phpmyadmin and www.shenanigansguild.com/phpmyadmin . This is what the error says

phpMyAdmin - Error

Cannot start session without errors, please check errors given in your PHP and/or webserver log file and configure your PHP installation properly.

This is what my error.log file in /var/log/ispconfig/httpd/shenanigansguild.com looks like

I am not sure where my error log for PHP or my webserver is or for brl-clan.com either.

This is my first time editing the DNS record for Godaddy and using ISPConfig
