The password should be encrypted - it should look like 3NJG1wlklw3u8Kmwertlug or so...

maybe you follow the "howto change the password"...

no I didn't changed anything in the posting, its just an test installation so I hoped it will work quick ^^


I'll post a short installation guide of what I did tomorrow

As Joximu said: The Password should be encrypted! I think, thats the Error.

when I do -> /usr/local/www/apache22/ispcp/engine/ispcp-db-passwd

then-> Please Enter Your Current Password:
Please Enter Your New Database Password:
Please Repeat Your New Database Password:
ERROR: Unknown group 'root' !


why there should be a group called root? its only the user I guess

maybe you shoul remove the "admin" so the password is empty (in the ispcp.conf).

hi steve, glad to know that you want to run ispcp in freebsd there is a lot to be done if we want ispcp runing in freebsd "natively", hopefully after rc4 it can be running "natively"

i mean natively since, some command and structure in *BSD is different from *nux, like the problem you have, in BSD we use root:wheel and in *nux use root:root thats why you got an error

for now, you can avoid the error like openbsd instalation document said, just create a new group call root in /etc/group similar with wheel

i think we need a new config variable for this. Could you open a ticket please?
For milestone rc4.

maybe the gid is the same - so we could use the Group ID instead of the name... ?

group root has gid 0 (zero) in *nix...

ok now I can connect but the installation didn't create any database tables so now the following appears.

Table 'ispcp.config' doesn't exist


I look around but I can't find soemthing like an installation for the tables.
any hints?

ok, in /etc/ispcp/database/database.sql there is the structure.
You need to replace {DATABASE_NAME} with `ispcp` for example in the first lines.

Then import the whole structure...

and then the languages.sql (is only a small table needed)
