Restarting apache2 (via systemctl): apache2.service. Well done ISPConfig installed and configured correctly :D Now you can connect to your ISPConfig installation at https://vps:8080 or https://IP_ADDRESS:8080 You can visit my GitHub profile at https://github.com/servisys/ispconfig_setup/ You had to edit user/pass /var/lib/roundcube/plugins/ispconfig3_account/config/config.inc.php of roudcube user, as the one you inserted in ISPconfig root@vps:/tmp/servisys-ispconfig_setup-117dc90#

[gOOvER]

wrong fqdn.

have nothing to do with install script itself

[landsman]

@gOOvER how can I fix it? Why install script was not check this?

[gOOvER]

Thats not part of the script to check this. Adding FQDN is Part of the Admin during install of the Distro ;)

[landsman]

Same during instalation on Ubuntu 16.04.

[gOOvER]

Sooooo, your Error Message:

cannot open '/etc/mailname' for reading: No such file or directory The value of variable $myhostname is "vps", but should have been a fully qualified domain name; perhaps uname(3) did not provide such. You must explicitly assign a FQDN of this host to variable $myhostname in /etc/amavis/conf.d/05-node_id, or fix what uname(3) provides as a host's network name! (failed).

Please give me the result of

hostname

and

hostname -f

Also check, if /etc/mailname exist

[landsman]

hostname = vps hostname -f = hostname: Name or service not known /etc/mailname/ = not exists

[servisys]

It's not related to script, it's related to the worng minimal install you had done.

In my case was that it used pretty(short) hostname in /etc/amavisd/amavisd.conf $mydomain = 'YOUR_domain_HERE'; # a convenient default for other settings $myhostname = 'YOUR_hostname_HERE'; make changes and restart amavisd service.
