Froxlor can't create user folder in /var/customers/webs/ either vhost file in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/

[Thierry Gronchi]

Hello,

I used Froxlor for Years on Debian 7 without any problem.

I've just installed Froxlor on a new v-server Debian 8.11 image.

Every things are well installed, but Froxlor can't write the folder of a new customer in /var/customers/webs/ folder.

I first add a new customer and add a new domain for this customer. On my previous installation, the folder was created automatically at this moment.

No new file in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ either, so no v-hosting.

No error reporting.

I'm not experimented in Linux OS, but it seems Froxlor have authorisation problems.

I've discovered that my v-server is chrooted by the hosting and don't know if it's a problem.

Can someone tell me if I have to adjust some configurations to solve the situation ?

Thanks.

Sounds like the cronjob did not run, try 

php /var/www/froxlor/scripts/froxlor_master_cronjob.php --force --debug

Hello, thanks for response. I sended the result before... sorry.

[d00p]

so, see, everythings fine. Please verify that /etc/cron.d/froxlor exists and nopaste its content so I can see whether everything is fine in there

[Thierry Gronchi]

Effectively, it seems to work now.

I've change a setting in /etc/passwd :

www-data:x:33:33:www-data:/var/www:/usr/sbin/nologin -> www-data:x:33:33:www-data:/var/www:/bin/sh

Is it possible that was the problem ?

 

 

[d00p]

eh, no, you should not edit /etc/passwd manually nor should it be required

[Thierry Gronchi]

I did it by vipw and vipw -s (for the shadow)

I have a backup of passwd in case of mistake.

But I cannot see what else made the cron job works now and not before.

I tryed during four days without success and nows all works fine. Customers folders, v-hosting, ftp acces are ok.

[d00p]

www-data has NOTHING to do with the cronjob. Did you set it up correctly like shown in the configuration template steps? You should've created the file /etc/cron.d/froxlor yourself and put shown content into it.

[Thierry Gronchi]

I have copy and pate in SSH from Froxlor configurations templates step by step, and verified all at least 10 times.

/etc/cron.d/froxlor exists since 4 days.

at the end of first configuration in web browser, it was demanded in orange to manualy copy userdata.inc.php from /tmp to /froxlor/lib,

what I did.

/froxlor/lib ? I hope you mean /var/www/froxlor/lib...
