Got a problem not covered by the docs? Don't know where to look in the docs or in the forums? All of the other forums over your head? If you're new to Virtualmin, this is the place for you.

Ubuntu/Debian How to Install Nginx - documentation missing virtualmin apt sources.list alteration

Hi guys, I just wondered whether or not i have made an error or perhaps the following needs to be added to the documentation about installing Nginx (should one wish to use it instead of apache2).

I appreciate that i vaguely remember somewhere in another part of virtualmin documentation that one should make the changes to the sources list however i believe its important to remind newbies about this kind of thing whenever they are going outside the standard install just in case.

BIND DNS and Nameservers

HI guys, I dont actually know how to ask this question correctly...so i will muddle my way through it. As i may have already stated somewhere else, I build wordpress websites and have been a reseller in the past. I have played around quite a bit with LAMP servers on my home network, however, my understanding of dns is limited by my innability to properly visualise the working model.

Applicaitons Installers

This is going to sound like a really dumb question, however, the dumber it sounds highlights how ridiculous it is that i cannot find out using the documentation how i am supposed to use them...

The following new features are available in Virtualmin 5.07 .. Updated script installers Updated the FosWiki script installer to version 2.1.3, WHMCS to 6.3.2 and 7.1.1, Node.js to 7.6.0, Magento to 2.1.5, Ghost to 0.11.7, DokuWiki to 2017-02-19a, NextCloud to 11.0.2 and 10.0.4, Piwik to 3.0.2, and Coppermine to 1.5.46.

CAnt access virtualmin from landline internet connection but i can from mobile device

This is really pissing me off...why can i not access my server from a landline internet connection however i can access it from cellular data connection?

Does anyone have some techniques for stopping this from happening regularly?

Is this a server memory issue (my server has 600MB RAM). If i cannot access virtualmin to fix the ram issue how should i go about disabling stuff to free up ram?

EDIT...i have increased my server to 1 CPU @2.5 GHZ with 1.67GB RAM. Will be interesting to see how it goes.

Alias server redirects to virtual server only with http

I'm trying to restore a WordPress Multisite setup I had from my previous server configuration (Using CentOS, and CentOS Web Panel) now on Debian with Virtualmin. I have two domains, and with CWP I was able to set the web root of the second domain the same as the first one, so that WordPress would then serve up the correct website.

Inadvertantly deleted bind9 module

Hi guys, I have inadvertantly removed bind9 from within webmin. I tried to reinstall it using webmin however it just kept returning an error saying it couldnt write too /tmp/.webmin. I altered the permissions on both directories to 1777 all to no avail. I then went into ubuntu 16.04 shell root user directly and installed bind9 using "apt-get install bind9 bind9utils bind9-doc"

After going to to webmin...and even resetting and logging out and back in again...i still cannot see the bind9dns server (nor can i configure it)

I am not sure what to do from here?

DNS records using Namecheap nameservers?

Can anyone help me with this? Using my own nameserver works, but I only have a single IP address so that can be ruled out due to DNS errors in Google and MX Toolbox. But if I use Namecheap's Basic DNS service, and assign it to both my VPS and registrar DNS records, www and subdomains work, but not the base domain, e.g. www.example.com, foo.example.com and bar.example.com work but not example.com itself.
