Hello, I am sorry for the issue. Is your domain pop.vps.co.ve?

Yes, It is the domain domain of one of the backup servers.

Could you please attempt to reinstall Vesta Web Interface, then edit your
.htaccess file and change the PHP Flags option to "On" and I will attempt
to diagnose the problem.

That is a mistake that I get when I go to install the script, I always have to create that file manually. Do you think it has something to do with it?

That is the error that shows me

Try to log in and see if there are any new error messages.

I already did it and I see exactly the same error, check by setting the value of that line to 1 but it gives me exactly the same error.

All of those messages are expected and go away once you login, which makes
me believe there is another error. Those errors do not need to be changed
or fixed, they are only informational.

Correct, I also say the same but the strange thing is that when I start session it tells me that the data is incorrect and that I am very sure of the data I put as I use it every day.

Since it seems that PHP is unable to connect to your specified MySQL database, I would start by checking that your port is correct and there are no spelling errors, as well as ensuring that your MySQL port is not blocked by either CentOS or VestaCP.

Alternatively, you can enable local configuration mode by changing the value $configstyle to "2" in the includes/includes.php file and uploading a manual configuration to the /tmp folder using the attached config.json template.

config.zip

Hello friend, with that additional configuration remains exactly the same even with the config.json installed in the folder ./tmp

Check the port that is 3306 and it's open, I do not understand why it's still not loading.

I'm sorry, I misunderstood the problem. It seems you are able to connect to
MySQL but cannot connect to the VestaCP API. See if you can connect to
YOUR-DOMAIN.com:8083/api . You should get a blank white page. If that works
and there is still no explanation, use SSH on your VestaCP server and the
'v-generate-api-key' command, switch your authentication method to 'api'
and see if you can connect.

But in what part do I place that API? What line exactly?

Just check that it is accessible from your SSH terminal and/or browser. The
credentials will go in either you MySQL config or config.json for the
vesta-method value.

The problem still persists, changing Vesta method to API. Enter the API in the empty field and stay the same.

Hi, I am having the same problem, I have been trying to get this working all day, I have done all the checks and still I get Failed to connect to server.Please check config, are there any logs i can check to see where the connection is failing?

I'm getting these errors:

Notice: Undefined index: username in /home/user/web/control.holbrookhosting.co.uk/public_html/includes/includes.php on line 67

Solved:
Warning: array_values() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /home/user/web/control.holbrookhosting.co.uk/public_html/login.php on line 41

By Replacing
$serverconnection = array_values(json_decode(curl_exec($curl0), true))[0]['OS'];
With
$serverconnection = is_array(json_decode(curl_exec($curl0), true))? array_values(json_decode(curl_exec($curl0), true))[0]['OS']: array();

@Holbroom Are you able to successfully login after changing that line? The purpose of that line is to make a basic call to the Vesta server and produce an error if it cannot, whereas this edit would prevent the call from failing if it can't connect.

One possible log you could check, by the way, is the Vesta auth log (/usr/local/vesta/log/auth.log) it should show a new event for every page load and show any authentication / credential problems.

Hi,
Unfortunately not, the edit made no difference,but if you visit the page and view the source you'll see multiple errors, not sure what is wrong to be honest.
https://control.holbrookhosting.co.uk

I've done manual install 3 times, once on a subdomain and twice in a directory of the main domain, all times with the same issue, oddly, when i run the auto install i get:

Error: VWI can only be installed on Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS, or RHEL. Exiting ...\n

But I am running centos.

cat /etc/centos-release

CentOS release 6.10 (Final)

@Holbroom Try running each of these commands then paste the output:

• source /etc/os-release | echo $NAME
• lsb_release -si
• source /etc/lsb-release | echo $DISTRIB_ID

These are the commands the installer uses to determine your OS but there must be something misspelled or missing in the installer.

That is odd though, especially considering almost half of my users use CentOS and I've never heard of this issue before.

Also, try creating a file called test.php with the following code in the /home/user/web/control.holbrookhosting.co.uk/public_html/ folder so I can see the raw output of the curl command and server connection.

<?php

session_start(); $configlocation = "includes/"; require('includes/includes.php');

$postvars = array(
   array('user' => $vst_username,'password' => $vst_password,'cmd' => 'v-list-sys-info','arg1' => 'json'),
   array('user' => $vst_username,'password' => $vst_password,'cmd' => 'v-list-sys-config','arg1' => 'json'));

$curl0 = curl_init();$curl1 = curl_init(); $curlstart = 0; 

while($curlstart <= 1) {
    curl_setopt(${'curl' . $curlstart}, CURLOPT_URL, $vst_url);
    curl_setopt(${'curl' . $curlstart}, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,true);
    curl_setopt(${'curl' . $curlstart}, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
    curl_setopt(${'curl' . $curlstart}, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);
    curl_setopt(${'curl' . $curlstart}, CURLOPT_POST, true);
    curl_setopt(${'curl' . $curlstart}, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query($postvars[$curlstart]));
    $curlstart++;
} 
print_r(curl_exec($curl0)); print_r(curl_exec($curl1));

Hello, I get the same thing as him, exactly the same. And when I create and access the test.php I get the following.

Notice: Undefined index: username in /home/admin/web/pop.vps.co.ve/public_html/includes/includes.php on line 67

Notice: Undefined index: loggedin in /home/admin/web/pop.vps.co.ve/public_html/includes/includes.php on line 68

@FulltronService Okay, replace the code in test.php with this and check the output:

<?php

require("includes/config.php"); 
print_r(mysqli_query(mysqli_connect($mysql_server,$mysql_uname,$mysql_pw,$mysql_db),"SELECT VARIABLE,VALUE FROM " . $mysql_table . "config"));
mysqli_close($con);

Now I get this:

mysqli_result Object ( [current_field] => 0 [field_count] => 2 [lengths] => [num_rows] => 50 [type] => 0 )
Notice: Undefined variable: con in /home/admin/web/pop.vps.co.ve/public_html/test.php on line 5

Warning: mysqli_close() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, null given in /home/admin/web/pop.vps.co.ve/public_html/test.php on line 5

@FulltronService Okay, that looks exactly as it should, try this now, and make sure there is no sensitive content / don't post it. Just make sure that it is actually outputting all of the correct data, and is not missing anything.

<?php

require("includes/config.php"); 

$result = mysqli_query(mysqli_connect($mysql_server,$mysql_uname,$mysql_pw,$mysql_db),"SELECT VARIABLE,VALUE FROM " . $mysql_table . "config");

while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) { echo $row["VARIABLE"] . " "  . $row["VALUE"] . "\n <br>"; }
mysqli_close($con);

@FulltronService I believe the problem is with your VESTA_HOST_ADDRESS, it should be just the hostname or ip address, whereas you put a full url. Try replacing https://pop.vps.co.ve with pop.vps.co.ve in your MySQL database.

Ready, problem solved :)

Although showing errors, I still see some warnings, is it normal?

@FulltronService Yes, those are just notices checking to see if you are logged in and are expected. You can turn off php_flag display_errors in .htaccess and those will go away.

I will also add some code to the installer to prevent this error from happening in the future.

Excellent friend, I am very grateful to you for the help you gave me. I would donate if it was not from Venezuela :(

Although we are hands.

@FulltronService I'm glad I could help :)

I have other problem. When I want to configure a web I get:

Error Updating Web Domain
(E: 0.0.0.0.0.0.4.OK.0)

Please try again or contact support.

It is normal? You are not saving the web configuration.

Is this when you are editing or creating a domain?

Good morning,
I have done done the same as above but it's still not working....

@Holbroom It looks like there is a redirect in your hostname, where 176.9.155.162 is redirected to holbrookhosting.co.uk I am unsure if this is the problem, but it is possible the the redirect it preventing VWI from accessing the API. Again, all of the outputs from test.php look perfect so it must be something with the API request.

Also, it's odd that /etc/os-release is missing, because I believe that is supposed to work on all Linux releases, but I will try to fix the installer, and I will add /etc/centos-release as a backup check.

I've changed VESTA_HOST_ADDRESS from the IP Address to holbrookhosting.co.uk and it's still not working, this is very frustrating, I would love to get this working.

@Holbroom could you paste the output of the first bit of test.php code I posted?

I'm not sure what you mean by paste the output of the first bit?
The test.php can be accessed from the following URL

https://control.holbrookhosting.co.uk/test.php

This is the code behind test.php

`

session_start(); $configlocation = "includes/"; require('includes/includes.php');

$postvars = array(
array('user' => $vst_username,'password' => $vst_password,'cmd' => 'v-list-sys-info','arg1' => 'json'),
array('user' => $vst_username,'password' => $vst_password,'cmd' => 'v-list-sys-config','arg1' => 'json'));

$curl0 = curl_init();$curl1 = curl_init(); $curlstart = 0;

while($curlstart <= 1) {
curl_setopt(${'curl' . $curlstart}, CURLOPT_URL, $vst_url);
curl_setopt(${'curl' . $curlstart}, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,true);
curl_setopt(${'curl' . $curlstart}, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt(${'curl' . $curlstart}, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);

curl_setopt(${'curl' . $curlstart}, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query($postvars[$curlstart]));
$curlstart++;
}
print_r(curl_exec($curl0)); print_r(curl_exec($curl1));`

Try changing it to this code and seeing if it changes.

   array('user' => $vst_username,'password' => $vst_password,'cmd' => 'v-list-sys-info','arg1' => 'json'),

I've updated the test.php file, has anything changed?

Is this when you are editing or creating a domain?

Exactly, I always get that error

I've updated the test.php file, has anything changed?

Why do not you try to reinstall that from 0 and then purge the database you're using for the panel?

Maybe it's some general configuration issue. Then, make sure that the HOST is as example.com and not as https://example.com/

I've tried to install 4 times now already, each time i get the same errors messages, I have tried with IP and example.com domain, both give same error, my Cenots is 64bit, could that have any impact? the Auto install script doesn't work for me also, it says i am not using Centos when I am.

It's quite weird that's the truth because I also use 64bit Cents and it did not give me any problem in the installation except for the configuration file. Did you install the Development Tools?

I add that my version of Centos is the 7, in the registry of errors of the domain of VestaCP sometimes it leaves to you that the problem can be for the PHP-FCGI as it happened to me and already that is external to the support of the panel that you are installing . To enter I think you know, in any case enter in this way to that record:

Control Panel (Original VestaCP Panel) > Web > View Logs (In your domain) > ErrorLog

If the problem is with your VestaCP Panel, there will be the reason why (If it is due to waiting time limit, if it is because there is a wrong function or if it is because the number of simultaneous requests exceeds the limit)

@cdgco Do not you think the same?

Can you give me some suggestions to fix the issue?

Can you give me some suggestions to fix the issue?

I'm waiting to see what it says @cdgco

Cheers, I really appreciate all the help, I'd love to get this working.

@cdgco I just found another problem and that is a problem. When I add a mail account I get (Error 500)

if I start to see the error log, I get this: mod_fcgid: stderr: PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';', expecting ',' or ')' in /home/admin/web/panel.fulltron.net/public_html/create/mailaccount.php on line 125, referer: https://panel.fulltron.net/add/mailaccount.php?domain=tuservinet.com

The code segment that is in that line is the following:

if($webmailurl != ''){ $webmailurlx0 = "Webmail URL: <a href='" . $webmailurl . "'>" . $webmailurl . "</a>"; $webmailurlx1 = "Webmail URL: " . $webmailurl; } else { $webmailurlx0 = ''; $webmailurlx1 = ''; } addslashes( $mail = new PHPMailer; $mail->setFrom($mailfrom, $mailname); $mail->addAddress($_POST['v_sendemail']); $mail->Subject = 'Email Credentials'; $mail->Body = 'Username: ' . $_POST['v_account'] . '@' . $_POST['v_domain'] . '<br>IMAP Hostname: ' . addslashes(VESTA_HOST_ADDRESS) . '<br>IMAP Port: 143<br>IMAP Security: STARTTLS<br>IMAP Auth Method: Normal Password<br>SMTP Hostname: ' . addslashes(VESTA_HOST_ADDRESS) . '<br>SMTP Port: 587<br>SMTP Security: STARTTLS<br>SMTP Auth Method: Normal Password<br>Password: ' . $_POST['password'] .

'\nIMAP Port: 143\nIMAP Security: STARTTLS\nIMAP Auth Method: Normal Password\nSMTP Hostname: ' . addslashes(VESTA_HOST_ADDRESS) . '\nSMTP Port: 587\nSMTP Security: STARTTLS\nSMTP Auth Method: Normal Password\nPassword: ' . $_POST['password'] . '\n' . addslashes($webmailurlx0);

And especially line 125 is this:

$mail = new PHPMailer;

He says he waits "," or ")" instead of ";" and that if I do not understand it since I change the values by "," or ")" and still throw the same message exactly the same.

@Holbroom Your OS version has nothing to do with the errors, the only problem with the installation was an error in accurately detecting your OS.

@FulltronService I need to know exactly which page this was because each page has a different error code meaning different things. Does the page end in /edit/domain.php or /add/domain.php?

I have school right now, so it will be a while before I can offer you any support.

Is this https://panel.fulltron.net/create/mailaccount.php. And okay, I'll be waiting.

That error was fixed in commit 004a24f and will be released in v0.5.4

@FulltronService the error you received when updating the domain was an error code 4 when updating your domain's SSL certificate. Error 4 means "Object already exists". Presumably you already had an ssl certificate and uploaded the same one. For more info, view your Vesta error log in /usr/local/vesta/log/error.log

@Holbroom, while adding that line did fix the redirection error, cURL is still unable to either connect to your VestaCP API, or authenticate. I will try to write some new test code later to hopefully determine the issue.

Thank you, I really appreciate the help.

I don't understand how I can use VestaCP API in PHP for creating accounts etc, but this is still failing, it's connecting to the mysql database but doesn't appear to be talking to VestaCP API

@Holbroom, I don't understand either, all the data looks correct, but the test.php should be outputting data, whereas it is blank but also not giving and connection errors. It could be a problem with your php or cURL, but I am not sure.

My cURL version is very outdated.

Version: 7.19.7 Nov 4 2009

I'm going to update this and see if that helps, clutching at straws now.

I have updated everything but still hasn't made any difference.

Do you know why I get the following message why I try to do an Automatic Install?
Error: VWI can only be installed on Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS, or RHEL. Exiting ...\n

Also, is there anything more we can try, maybe a script to test the cURL connection to the API?
Proving PHPInfo if there is anything to check? https://control.holbrookhosting.co.uk/phpinfo.php

@Holbroom, As I said, the only problem with the automatic installer is that the section which I built to detect your OS was working wrong and I need to add 1 more line.

I plan on writing a script to debug the curl connection, but I have had very little free time lately.

I will take a look at your PHPInfo, but I doubt it will give me much more insight than I currently have.

You are running the same operating system and kernel as other users as well as the same PHP, Apache and HTTP versions.

@Holbroom if you really want to use the automated installer, here is a script to force it:

#!/bin/bash
    if [ ! -z "$(ls -A ./)" ]; then
        printf "Error: Directory not empty.\nVWI must be installed in clean directory. Exiting ...\n"
        exit 1

    if rpm -q tar &> /dev/null
    then
        echo "tar found"
    else
        echo "tar not found. Installing ..."
        yum -y install tar
    fi
    if rpm -q git &> /dev/null
    then
        echo "git found"
    else
        echo "git not found. Installing ..."
        yum -y install git

        rm 'VWI Banner.png'
    fi
    chmod 777 includes
    chmod 777 tmp

    sleep .5

        cp /usr/local/vesta/softaculous/enduser/themes/default /usr/local/vesta/softaculous/enduser/themes/original-default -r

    read -p "Enter the full web address of your installation: "
        echo "<?php \$vwipanel = '$REPLY'; ?>" > /usr/local/vesta/web/vwi/config.php
    printf "\nInstallation Complete! Please visit your website online to finish configuration.\n"
fi

I will add a flag in the future to give the option to force the installer.

Thank you, i'm going to wipe the site tonight and give the auto installer ago, to see if it makes any difference, I appreciate your time and effort to help get this working. cheers.
