  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

hello, ich would be very glad to get some help while installing egroupware on a root server with system linux suse 10.1 and administration software plesk 8.2.

i read the admin guide for plesk and tried out what they write about vhost.conf, but it did not work. i searched egroupware.org and tried what some users wrote there, but unfortunatly it did not work either.

here is the path to the doc root:

/srv/www/vhosts/mydomain.de/httpdocs

egroupware is in the following directory:

/srv/www/vhosts/mydomain.de/httpdocs/egroupware

a made the following directories:

/srv/www/vhosts/mydomain.de/backup
/srv/www/vhosts/mydomain.de/files
/srv/www/vhosts/mydomain.de/tmp

and i wonder what owner:group they should have and which permissions ?

which other directories or paths are necessary ?

what shall i write to the vhost.conf ?

and how to tell the server to include the vhost.conf information ?

thank you very much in advance for any information or help,
markus
 
Well my friend, you seem to be as much a fool as i am. eGroupWare is in the vault of Plesk and can be installed in a couple of minutes.

But, same like you i wanted to install it myself and got stuck at the same point.

After a lot of hours surfing on the internet i found the following solution, and IT WORKS!

Special thanks go to the people of swsoft for putting up an article in the knowledgebase that is of no use!

The solution:
i made a subdir /srv/www/vhosts/<domain>/groupware in whicht i created the dir's files and backup. I left the tmp dir as it was.

Put the following in the file vhost.conf:
<DirectoryMatch /srv/www/vhosts/<domain>/httpdocs>
php_admin_value open_basdir "<original open_basedir of httpd.include>:/srv/www/vhosts/<domain>/groupware"
</DirectoryMatch>

all the dir's are uid.guid www.wwwrun
mode 0700

greets,
Erland.
