DirectAdmin and LVE

Installing DirectAdmin

To install DirectAdmin on fresh CloudLinux installation, you will need to alter /etc/redhat-release file so that DirectAdmin recognizes what to install. In the future we are hoping that DirectAdmin will detect CloudLinux natively.

# echo "CentOS release 5.5" > /etc/redhat-release

After that follow DirectAdmin instructions http://www.directadmin.com/install.html

Requirements

LVE installed
Apache 2.2.x, compiled with custombuild
mod_suexec should be enabled

Install Apache 2.2.x

See info: http://files.directadmin.com/services/custombuild/1.1/

Install mod_hostinglimits

# yum install lve-devel cmake
# wget http://repo.cloudlinux.com/cloudlinux/sources/mod_hostinglimits.tar.gz
# tar -zxf mod_hostinglimits.tar.gz
# cd mod_hostinglimits
# cmake CMakeLists.txt 
# make install

Add config file

# wget http://repo.cloudlinux.com/cloudlinux/confs/modhostinglimits.conf
# cp modhostinglimits.conf /etc/httpd/conf/extra
# echo "#For LVE settings" >> /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-includes.conf
# echo "Include conf/extra/modhostinglimits.conf" >> /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-includes.conf

Restart apache

# service httpd restart

Potential Issues

In some cases the mod_hostinglimits module is not loaded by apache.

Check file /etc/httpd/conf/extra/modhostinglimits.conf for LoadModule statement.

If it is missing, add:

LoadModule hostinglimits_module /usr/local/HTTPD_MODULES-NOTFOUND/mod_hostinglimits.so

(or correct place where module was installed)

Also, if you are running suPHP, you might need to add x-httpd-php5 handler to modhostinglimits.conf

Like this:

AllowedHandlers application/x-httpd-php5 application/x-httpd-php cgi-script php-script php5-script php4-script x-httpd-php5
