new centos 4.4 instalation problems!

[Nephilim]

Hi, we have installed ispconfig 3 days ago on a brand new centos 4.4 (installed with the perfect instalation guide). I made a domain on that server that was registerd 2 days ago. now, 2 days later, it still sais that i cannot change the information because the update-lock..

Also i can still not log in with either the mail, ftp or ispconfig panel!

After checking the dns records with a query, it did not reply any of them..

I have tried a complete reinstall of the ispconfig (removed databases) but still nothing..

Can anyone tell me how i can fix/check whats wrong?

Thanks!
Filip

i think i've done over 10 installs just trying to get things rolling.

i've ran into this same problem, and i share your frustrations.

however my fix was quite simple.

after you prepare your system via howtoforge guide

do not follow the patch found @ http://dev.dyslexification.com/ !!!

rather use the method that TILL suggested to successfully install ispconfig on centos 4.4.

There is a easier solution to install on centos 4.4 then using a patch.

1) Make a backup of your /etc/redhat-release file.
2) Change the version numebr in the redhat-release file to 4.3
3) Install ISPConfig.
4) Restore the backup of your redhat release file.

that gave me a working server the first time.
good luck!

Well i have worked with the manual workaround and with that patch.. but neither seem to solve the login/update problems that i faced.. Though i'm going to reinstall again tomorrow! So i'll try your way then!

Thanks for the fast reply!

Do you get a segfault when you run this command as root user:

/root/ispconfig/php/php -q /root/ispconfig/scripts/writeconf.php

We've just released ISPConfig 2.2.7 which supports CentOS 4.4 so you should try this one.

When i run that command, i get nothing. Seems to keep running..

Then after a long time i get this:

[root@web ~]# /root/ispconfig/php/php -q /root/ispconfig/scripts/writeconf.php
No results found![root@web ~]#

Installed and working! I guess it was a slight error in the workaround like suggested here!

Thanks for all your help!
