The Perfect Server - CentOS 5.2 x86_64 - Page 7
14 Webalizer
To install webalizer, just run
yum install webalizer
15 Synchronize The System Clock
If you want to have the system clock synchronized with an NTP server do the following:
yum install ntp
chkconfig --levels 235 ntpd on
ntpdate 0.pool.ntp.org
/etc/init.d/ntpd start
16 Install Some Perl Modules
ISPConfig comes with SpamAssassin which needs a few Perl modules to work. We install the required Perl modules with a single command:
yum install perl-HTML-Parser perl-DBI perl-Net-DNS perl-Digest-SHA1
17 The End
The configuration of the server is now finished, and if you wish you can now install ISPConfig on it.
17.1 A Note On SuExec
If you want to run CGI scripts under suExec, you should specify /var/www as the home directory for websites created by ISPConfig as CentOS' suExec is compiled with /var/www as Doc_Root. Run
/usr/sbin/suexec -V
and the output should look like this:
[root@server1 ~]# /usr/sbin/suexec -V
-D AP_DOC_ROOT="/var/www"
-D AP_GID_MIN=100
-D AP_HTTPD_USER="apache"
-D AP_LOG_EXEC="/var/log/httpd/suexec.log"
-D AP_SAFE_PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin"
-D AP_UID_MIN=500
-D AP_USERDIR_SUFFIX="public_html"
[root@server1 ~]#
So if you want to use suExec with ISPconfig, don't change the default web root (which is /var/www) if you use expert mode during the ISPConfig installation (in standard mode you can't change the web root anyway so you'll be able to use suExec in any case).
