Vesta Control Panel - Forum

I have a CentOS VestaCP installation and have been trying to get SMTP mail to work so that it can be used with various forms. I checked and pear is installed under /usr/share/pear. I found a guide to check if pear is installed correctly, https://pear.php.net/manual/en/installation.checking.php, whic...

I updated the php.ini file setting open_basedir as follows and restarting Apache: open_basedir = /srv/http/:/home/:/tmp/:/usr/share/pear/:/usr/share/webapps/ Warning: require_once(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/usr/share/pear/System.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/testin...

I am a novice with SMTP, found some instructions to both install SMTP and PEAR. The install looks good. When I get around to testing to see if they work I have a short test script with these includes: require_once 'System.php'; var_dump(class_exists('System', false)); require_once "Mail.php"; System...

Either through the control panel or command line (cli?) or both, what are the procedures to add or remove an IP address in the firewall. Also to review what's currently there (as root) The default behavior seems to be to block an IP after several attempts then you have to wait an hour or so for it t...

There was a problem with my initial hostname and account resulting in having to rename the host and not being able to get DNS to work after. To rename the host I did this through VestaCP then as I was still seeing problems did the cli command and since still not working edited /etc/hosts and /etc/ho...

I found the ban list by visiting: https://$ipaddress:8083/list/firewall/banlist/ It gives severall pulldown ban options - WEB for sure, but I'd rather ban it for all. How would you do that? The spammer IP address is: 93.179.68.108. What is the syntax for banning the subnet, not just the individual I...

This happens occasionally due to sticky fingers or perhaps rushing when attempting to SSH. After I enter the password incorrectly several times (3?) it locks me out with an error like cannot connect (didn't write down the error). It appears to be specific to the IP address I am signing in from. To f...

Ah - okay I found the file. The line is set to:

php_admin_value open_basedir %docroot%:%home%/%user%/tmp

What does it need to be changed to, perhaps?

php_admin_value open_basedir %home%/%user%/tmp

Will this affect the operation of Vesta CP, for instance if it got messed up?

Please walk me through this. I opened VestaCP as root, signed into the account in question, $my_account, then as that user click on the WEB tab. There I select to edit '$my-domain.com'. Web template is set to default. There is a basedir option from the dropdown. If I switch to basedir and save I see...

Installing ckfinder is easy. All you do is set a path for the install. However it is failing to start and the full error is like the following: Warning: is_writable(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/my_account/web/my-domain.com/public_html:/h...
