CSF/LFD will removes oldest entries and replaced with new one. So how to make CSF/LFD make permanent whitelist IP Address? Here’s how:

From WHM > ConfigServer Security&Firewall >
look for “Edit lfd ignore file” select csf.ignore – IP Blocking on dropdown list and click Edit button

Info for csf.ignore file is all IP addresses listed will be ignored by all lfd checks. Since it will be ignored so it won’t be blocked (automatically whitelisted)

# exim -bP | grep message_size_limit
 message_size_limit = 50M

You can change maximum message size by adding line

message_size_limit = 5M

on the first textarea of the Advanced Mode editor in WHM > Exim Configuration Editor. That will put a 5MB message size limit on email.

PS: the limit only affect is email is sent directly using Email Client, if using Webmail (Squirrelmail) there is another limitation set by PHP when uploading file. it’s variable upload_max_filesize, you can change the value on WHM >  PHP Configuration Editor. Restart apache to make sure variable.

1. Install Minimal CentOS
2. Create harddrive partition
3. Deactivate the firewall
4. Disable SELinux
5. Ensure your newly-installed OS has the latest updates and patches.
6. Obtaining a cPanel/WHM License
7. Begin Installation

   cd /home
   wget -N http://layer1.cpanel.net/latest
   sh latest
   /usr/local/cpanel/cpkeyclt

After 5 hours installation is complete then when I am accessing WHM, this error came up

Internal Server Error
open3: exec of /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/bin/whostmgr3 ./initial_setup_wizard1 failed at cpsrvd line 6114

Checking and Googling for about 20 minutes what went wrong, and I saw in forum some people also had this problem and they were suggested to run below command

/scripts/upcp --force

This command will make your cpanel install is updated with latest version by force (replace all file). Detail here.

After running several hours, the script stops and say everything is okay. I went to WHM again and now it working flawlessly

I recently changed the IP addresses of a server running ISPConfig 2 and stumbled upon this thread. Since the server was hosting many sites, I was looking for a more effecient way to update the IP for all the sites in ISPConfig. Thought I would share my solution in case anyone else has this issue.

Please note: this worked for me on ISPConfig 2 running on Ubuntu 8.10. Location of config files my be different depending on your system.

After you change the IP on the system, log into ISPConfig and replace the IP address under Management > Server > Settings. Then replace the IP address in config files:

xxx.xxx.x.xx represents new IP
yyy.yyy.y.yy represents old IP

Bind9

perl -pi -e 's/yyy\.yyy\.y\.yy/xxx.xxx.x.xx/g' /var/lib/named/etc/bind/*

Apache

perl -pi -e 's/yyy\.yyy\.y\.yy/xxx.xxx.x.xx/g' /etc/apache2/vhosts/*

Now, log into MySQL, use the ispconfig database, and run the following queries to update the IP in ISPConfig:

DNS Manager

UPDATE dns_a SET ip_adresse = 'xxx.xxx.x.xx';
UPDATE dns_isp_dns SET dns_soa_ip = 'xxx.xxx.x.xx';

ISP Manager

UPDATE isp_isp_web SET web_ip = 'xxx.xxx.x.xx';
UPDATE isp_isp_domain SET domain_ip = 'xxx.xxx.x.xx';

Of course, you will need to restart apache and bind. Now all sites should load and when you log into ISPConfig you will see the new IP for each site and all your DNS records. Go to one of your sites under ISP Manager, make a minor change and hit save so that ISPConfig rewrites the config files. Then verify that ISPConfig is using the new IP and you’re good to go.

To validate (make sure) your IP Address already has license for cPanel to to cPanel License Validator, and enter your server main IP Address.

• If you have updating your cPanel License from Trial to Active, or
• If you change your server hostname, or
• You get Invalid License File error due to hostname change, bad system time, license IP address binding, firewall rules, and some other more obscure scenarios

You can try run this command as root

/usr/local/cpanel/cpkeyclt

A helpful expired license checklist in the cPanel forums takes troubleshooting further if the above methods don’t help.

PS: With an invalid license, any Web interface to cPanel will not work (including, WHM and Webmail)

But after a succesful installation, I even get this error saying that I dont have pdo_mysql installed on the server.

pdo_mysql extension is not installed

I don’t get it, when I check with function

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

pdo and pdo_mysql is there.

'--enable-pdo=shared'
'--with-pdo-mysql=shared'

So, it’s time for searching and lurking into Google and Magento forum/docs

Almost an hour, until I found this thread, it says I need to add these lines into php.ini. I have root access to server so it does not problem for me, but about other who just using shared hosting?

; added when pdo_mysql is shared (or missing)
extension=pdo.so
extension=pdo_mysql.so
extension=pdo_sqlite.so

Turns out, it’s not necessary system php.ini, I was misunderstand, and when I look on magento install dir, I found php.ini file, edit the file with above line. Open Magento URL, and there you go, Magento installation running succesfully.

No related posts.

vi /var/cpanel/mainips/root

then add another IP address which is not used by others. After that you use that IP for multiple accounts.

Assume you have /home partition which is far more bigger than /var, we’ll move to /home/mysql

service mysql stop
cd /var/lib
mv mysql /home
ln -s /home/mysql .
chown -R mysql.mysql mysql
service mysql start


The lesson in here is: please do research how much your data will grow, or it will be pain in the ass

1. Fantastico Problem First, Joomla is not listed on Fantastico, tried to update...

The server was not able to find the document (./frontend/x3/fantastico/index.php) you requested. Please check the url and try again. You might also want to report this error to your web hosting provider.

Access WHM >> Plugins >> Fantastico De Luxe WHM Admin again, this time it asked to re-install. Done that. But I still get the same error.

Do the first thing:

1) Go into WHM as root, click on Tweak Settings, scroll down to the PHP section and make sure the IONCUBE PHP Loader is selected. Save changes if needed.
2) Log into your server as root via SSH and execute the following command:
/scripts/makecpphp

Read Netenberg’s Forum, run below command

chattr -R -i /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/fantastico
chown -R root.root /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/fantastico
chattr -R -i /var/netenberg
chown -R root.root /var/netenberg

still lurking on the forum, and I found this thread about wget problem CentOS 5, what the heck, just run it.

cd
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/wget/wget-latest.tar.gz
tar xfz wget-latest.tar.gz
cd wget-*
./configure
make
make test
make install
cd ../
rm -Rf wget-*

This will install a clean copy of wget on your server at /usr/local/bin/wget

Go into WHM as root, click on the Fantastico Admin area and click install. On the screen you see, be sure to enter /usr/local/bin/wget as the path to wget.

Click to start the installation.

Note that this does not remove the system maintained version of wget with the new version. There will be two copies of wget on your server.

You are done. Go into WHM’s Fantastico admin area and finish the installation process.

I done that and Fantastico now back running up. Cheers

I thought it was .htaccess issue, so I trying to delete it. But .htaccess is can’t be deleted. After Googling I found From Techie Corner’s blog. And this is what I’ve done

1. Login into your CPanel account
2. Click on “Frontpage Extensions” icon
3. Click on “Install extensions” button beside your problem domain.
4. Done. The “.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file” problem has been fixed.
