Vhosts...conf not synced to changes

[crypted]

Any changes made in the ISPCONFIG Administration area are not syncing to the Vhosts_ispconfig.conf file.

1) I removed a lot of directives from a domain on ISPCONFIG. The CONF still has those entries.
2) I added new entries for another domain. The CONF does not show those entries.
3) I disabled and re-enabled WEBALIZER because /stats/ aren't working on any websites. No changes were made to the CONF document.

How can I get ISPCONFIG to sync with the HTTPD configuration files once again?

What are the outputs of

ls -la /root/ispconfig/

and

ps aux | grep wconf

?

I looked at that thread and did your proposed steps:

dingle@its:/etc/httpd/conf/vhosts# /usr/sbin/httpd -t
Syntax error on line 187 of /etc/httpd/conf/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf:
Invalid command '...', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
dingle@its:/etc/httpd/conf/vhosts#

<Directory "/var/www/web3/web/egroupware">
   AllowOverride FileInfo       
   ...
</Directory>

However, the latest VHOST file doesn't have that anymore. It has the full egroupware directive. BUT, I deleted egroupware from the ISPCONFIG Apache Directives two weeks ago. It never updated to the Vhost configuration file.

Basically, ISPCONFIG is not doing three notable things:
1) It is not updating the Vhost config file.
2) It is not changing user's passwords.
3) It is not changing mail settings.

Nothing was altered setting-wise on the machine. It just stopped letting us modify stuff sometime this past month.

Please run

rm -f /root/ispconfig/.ispconfig_lock
/root/ispconfig/php/php /root/ispconfig/scripts/writeconf.php

Do you get any errors then?

No errors.

dingle@its:/home/dingle# rm -f /root/ispconfig/.ispconfig_lock
dingle@its:/home/dingle# rm -f /root/ispconfig/php/php
dingle@its:/home/dingle# rm -f /root/ispconfig/scripts/writeconf.php
dingle@its:/home/dingle#

Further, I changed the mail settings for a user. I changed the spam filter settings from 5.0 to 4.5 and changed the discard setting.

.user_prefs still shows 5.0.

The interface/database is not accessing/changing the files whatsoever.

Okay, http://how2forge.net/forums/showthre...t=13263&page=2 has a similar problem.

When I copy the ~ vhost file, it kicks back an error in httpd -t.

Unfortunately, when I try to update the file, i can't. ISPCONFIG's directive no longer has the specific entry as I deleted it a long time ago.

<Directory "/var/www/web3/web/egroupware">
   AllowOverride FileInfo
   ...
</Directory>

That kicks back the error in the ~ copy because of the ... entry. However that got there...

This all started happening (I think) from when I deleted the egroupware entry from the ISPCONFIG Control Panel.

Now, the Control Panel cannot modify any of the files. The user's passwords, mail files, directives, and everything else cannot be changed. So egroupware broke it.

How can I resolve this?

Does /root/ispconfig/.ispconfig_lock exist again?
