It is recommended to use a clean (fresh) Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) install where you selected no additional packages or servers during setup. Then follow the steps below to setup your server with ISPConfig 3:
Now become root user by executing:
sudo su
and entering the password of the user that you created during setup.
Edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list and comment out the line beginning with "deb cdrom:....", then run:
apt-get update
apt-get -u upgrade
1) Install Postfix, Courier, Saslauthd, MySQL, phpMyAdmin with the following command line (on one line!):
and change the start mode from inetd to standalone. Then execute:
/etc/init.d/openbsd-inetd restart
5) Install mydns
apt-get install mydns-mysql
The mydns installer is a bit tricky, you will have to select to create a new database for mydns and use a existing mysql user, e.g. the mysql root user. This database is only to fullfill the requirements for the debian pacakge during installation and will not be used by ISPConfig later. ISPConfig will automatically change the mydns configuration files to use the ISPConfig database.
The installer will configure all services like postfix, sasl, courier, etc. for you. A manual setup as required for ISPConfig 2 (perfect setup guides) is not nescessary. To login to the ISPConfig controlpanel, open the following URL in your browser (replace the IP to match your settings!):
http://192.168.0.100:8080/
the default login is:
user: admin
password: admin
In case you get a permission denied error from apache, please restart the apache webserver process.
