Vesta Control Panel - Forum

so i made a backup on server1 then restore it in server2. success. i only restore a users backup. all sites and stuff is working. but when i login as admin in vesta i cant see that user in user menu, i can only see admin. how to fix?

ps. i really it the search here, it's not working :/

Have you restored the backup of that invisible user?
Can you verify that the username is listed in /usr/local/vesta/data/users.

ls /usr/local/vesta/data/users/

yes, it's in there.

and as i said data/sql are successfully restored. just that user don't show when i login as admin, so now i don't have option to "login as user".

what is the result of:
v-list-users
and
v-list-user marl

v-list-users shows only "admin" user, "marl" is not in there; doing v-list-user marl shows user "marl" information.

VestaCP is using grep @ /etc/passwd to list all users. So I suspect that your user has not entered an email address. You can execute grep marl /etc/passwd and look to see if there is any e-mail address in this line. If not change the user email with v-change-user-contact USER EMAIL.

yes, when i do grep marl /etc/passwd, no password. i did v-change-user-contact USER EMAIL, i think it succeed (no reply after command) but it didn't update when i grep marl /etc/passwd, user still has no email

Your passwd line would probably look like this?
marl:502:502::/home/marl:/sbin/nologin

Try to add the email address manually with nano or vi.

marl:502:502:[email protected]:/home/marl:/sbin/nologin
