Not sure I posted this to the right thread or not…
I just performed a fresh installation of openSUSE 11.3 and ISPConfig 3 on my server. I read through the article “The Perfect Server - openSUSE 11.3 x86_64 [ISPConfig 3]” and followed the instructions closely. Everything went smoothly.
I went into ISPConfig 3 and set up a DNS zone, email mailbox, FTP client, and website all for a client I created, hoping to use the client as the main account for a web site I want to host on my server. After I finished with this, I logged onto the server through FileZilla using my newly created client’s information. It took me to the “main directory” with the folders cgi-bin, log, ssl, tmp, and web. When I open “web” I see an html file named “index.html.”
I tried loading a mock website into the folder, also with an index.html file, and the files transferred over properly except the mock index.html file. The program changed the name to index.html.1. I tried to delete the original index.html file but was not allowed to. I then tried to rename it to something other than index.html and kept receiving a 550 Rename/move failure message. Can anyone point me in the right direction or help me resolve this issue?
I’m thinking perhaps I don’t have the right permissions with the client to rename files, but since that’s the account I want as the “owner” of this web site, I need to change the permissions so I can. I tried changing the ISPConfig 3 “Limits” for the account to SSH-Chroot Options “NONE” thinking that might be the issue, but it didn’t solve anything. Now I’m just lost.
