CentOS 6 + ISPConfig 3!

I change old server from: 1 core x 2 Ghz Xeon, 10GB HDD, 1GB RAM (CentOS 6 + webmin) to new one: 2 cores x 2Ghz Xeon, 50GB HDD, 3 GB RAM (CentOS 6 + ISPConfig) and everything works incredible fine.

CentOS 6 + ISPConfig 3 intallation is soo easy, like 2+2: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-centos-6.0-x86_64-ispconfig-3

Some system configuration:
* “/usr/local/ispconfig/server/conf” – in php-fcgi-starter.master dropped PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS or modifications in: /etc/httpd/conf.d/fcgid.conf add: FcgidMaxRequestLen 59931072or more.

* vi /etc/named.conf – allow-query     { any; }; change to: allow-query     { localhost; };

Some interesting bugs:
* “Warning: include(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File() is not within the allowed path(s)? File()” – is empty value, wtf? You can turn off only in default php-fcg-starter.master file or in:/var/www/php-fcgi-scripts/web/.php-fcgi-starter. Apache AllowOveride All and .htaccess with php_admin_value open_basedir none not helps!

* “Fail2Ban Logs” (need some modification in /etc/fail2ban/fail2ban.conf edit log target param to: logtarget = /var/log/fail2ban.log);

Problems later:
* [ERROR] Can’t find messagefile ‘/usr/share/mysql/english/errmsg.sys’ – after one month, helps: yum –enablerepo=remi,remi-test reinstall mysql-libs

All other services now works fine about ~one month. Client friendly interface, easy usage.

Highly recommend for small business or home users!

    1. Try this: You can turn off only in default php-fcgi-starter.master file or in: /var/www/php-fcgi-scripts/web/.php-fcgi-starter.

      Default php-fcg-starter.master I think is somewhere here: /usr/local/ispconfig/server/conf/php-fcgi-starter.master I remove: -d open_base_dir …. line.

      After that recreate web site in ispconfig panel (just create new).

      All fcgi-scripts is here: /var/www/php-fcgi-scripts/

  2. Hey Markas!
    Thanks a lot for this fix.

    I already tried everything:
    – changing open_basedir field on Web Domain page under Options tab in ISPCONFIG
    – changing same open_basedir field on System -> Server Config -> ServerName -> Web
    – some people suggested switching to SuPHP
    – someone else said that you can disable safe mode in ISPConfig (I think its in older versions)
    – Also tried setting “/” or “/var/www” value for open_basedir = and still same errors

    To be short, I am happy its finally fixed. Still no idea why none of the previous fixes worked for me.

    Thanks!

    1. Hello mate,

      I try all methods too, but it not helps for me too. I think here is problem because: “Warning: include(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File()” File() is empty? Wtf? If is problem with dir file show where is problem like: File(/var/www/site_web1/web/) and etc. I not found any information about what, so I think problem is in open_basedir.

      I glad to know is everything ok.
