Upgrade RCx -> ispCP RCx

This guide will follow you through the whole Upgrade process from RCx to ispCP RCx. IT'S NOT POSSIBLE TO USE THIS GUIDE TO UPGRADE A NIGHTLY TO RCx!!!

PLEASE NOTE: YOU DO THIS UPGRADE ON YOUR OWN RISK. THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR AN SUCCESSFULL UPGRADE. FOLLOW THIS GUIDE STEP BY STEP!!!

Make Backups from your whole ispCP installation. Don't forget your databases!

 
 # mkdir -p /usr/local/src/ispcp 
 # cd /usr/local/src/ispcp 
 # wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/ispcp/ispcp-omega-1.0.0-rc5.tar.bz2  
 # tar -xjvf ispcp-omega-1.0.0-rc5.tar.bz2
 

 
 # cd ./ispcp*
 

first update your system:

 
 # apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
 

for Debian Sarge please use:

 
 # apt-get install `cat ./docs/Debian/debian-packages-sarge`
 

for Debian Etch please use:

 
 # apt-get install `cat ./docs/Debian/debian-packages-etch`
 

for Debian Lenny/Sid please use:

 
 # apt-get install `cat ./docs/Debian/debian-packages-lenny`
 

Make sure you have added the non-free into your /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb     http://ftp.debian.org/debian/            etch         main contrib non-free
deb     http://security.debian.org/              etch/updates main contrib non-free

If using Sarge, make sure you have added the following backport into your

 /etc/apt/sources.list:

# backports
deb     http://dotdeb.pimpmylinux.org/          sarge          all

(when you get to the courier screen select 'no' to web directories)

(when you get to the postfix screen select 'internet site' and then type 'root' for mail. If you've set debian up correctly on install your domain should be already on screen.

Select 'no' to force sync updates.)

(when you get to the proftpd screen, select 'standalone')

(when you get to the rootkithunter screen, select two time 'yes')

ispCP is preconfigurated for Debian 4.0 Etch.
If you're using another distribution please check, if config files exist in ./configs/dists and use/change them.

Check the ispcp.conf and adapt it to your requirements. An overview over the variables you can find in the FAQ on http://isp-control.net

If you get no error, all went good; if you get one, look at http://isp-control.net to solve the problem.

After installation please check your proftp.conf and disable IPv6 Support.

ispcp setup:

 
 # rm -fR /tmp/ispcp
 

and the backups (after tests)

 
 # rm -fR /tmp/backup
