remoting questions

[otacon]

Ok so I have The Newest version of ISPConfig on my server.... I am looking into the remoting scripts but I don't think I am understanding it..


In ISPConfig 3.0.3 where is the index.php file located that is needed in the example script soap-config.php

I tried the ispconfig/index.php but then it complains about a XML issue.

Am I even pointing it to the right place?

Do I need to install the soap server seperate or is it already there somewhere?

I don't see any tutorials or anything on this subject. if you know of one please refer me to it after answering my questions otherwise I will document my progress on remoting so the next guy will be able to figure it out faster than me.



Error message when trying to run a php file in my example folder.

SOAP Error: looks like we got no XML document


soap_conf.php

<?php

$username = 'admin';
$password = 'mypassword';

/*
$soap_location = 'http://server1.remcycle.net/ispconfig/index.php';
$soap_uri = 'http://server1.remcycle.net/ispconfig/';
*/

$soap_location = 'http://server1.remcycle.net/ispconfig/index.php';
$soap_uri = 'http://server1.remcycle.net/ispconfig/';

?>

[till]

The location of the index.php file is described in the examples. Copied from one of the example files:

$soap_location = 'http://localhost:8080/remote/index.php';
$soap_uri = 'http://localhost:8080/remote/';

Just replace localhost with the IP address or hostname of your server.

That worked like a charm and it seems to be working, except I am not sure if this is what it is suppose to do or not.

When I run a php file I get.

Login successfull. SessionID:72449496f5b46c29de5ed90ffc73b7fe
Logout.

and that is it. it will not ask for any information. Is that how it is supposed to be?

Now I have a blank php due to running this php file.


oh and for some reason I am unable to login to the ispconfig CP. it says my username and password are incorrect.

How would I manually add the user back up?

[till]

Is that how it is support to do it?

Yes, thats what it is suppsed to do. There are example files for the different functions in the examples directory available.

How would I manually add the user back up?

set a new password with phpmyadmin in the sys_user table for the admin user. Use the md5 function to encrypt the password.

Thank you for helping me out with this issue.

So I went to remcycle.net:8080/phpmyadmin/ and logged in with my admin name and password.

I seleted sys_usr table and my admin and other users created are gone.


looks like when I ran the example script soap-user-add.php it deleted all my users.

I tried to use the name that was created by default john2 with the password listed in phpmyadmin, but I can't login to the ispconfig control panel with that user either.

Any suggestion on why the user would not work, maybe there are additional configuration files?


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So I decided to delete the dbispconfig database in phpmyadmin, Delete ispconfig with the uninstaller and then reinstall, and I am now able to login to remcycle.net:8080. woot!


So now I just need to make a backup of everything just incase this happens again and It will be back to experimenting. I didn't realize the example files weren't forms. I will have to refresh myself on how to make the information variable and have my user input the data.

ok so now I have a new issue after reinstalling ISPControl Panel.

I recreated all information in the ISPControl Panel Exactly how it was before, and everything was working great.

Went on a break for 2 hours, and now when trying to go to remcycle.net I get


Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apache/2.2.9 (Debian) PHP/5.2.6-1+lenny9 with Suhosin-Patch mod_ssl/2.2.9 OpenSSL/0.9.8g Server at remcycle.net Port 80



I am still able to access the control panel through remcycle.net:8080, but it just seems to be the website that is having issues.


Any ideas on why a reinstall would cause this type of issue?


I would just wipe the system and startover, but I am working remotely with the server.

Thanks for your Help,
Otacon


PS: Looks like I had SSL on so when I go to https://remcycle.net it goes to my ip address (not my remcycle.net/web folder) but atleast it is not forbidden. I unchecked ssl to turn it off but I have the same issue. I will wait a little while to see if the issue persists.

Can you post the remcycle.net vhost configuration? Any errors in Apache's error log?

Please post the output of

ls -la /var/www/remcycle.net/

[otacon]

now it is just working, but it deleted my remcycle.net folder and made it default.

I am not sure why that happened, but at this stage in the game I will just startover. I haven't even setup backups yet.

So I am doing ok now, I just need to setup a backup program just incase something like this happens again.


Thanks for your help Falko
