I plan on installing WebGUI 7 (Stable Release) this week on a new dedicated server.For the past few years I've been using WebGUI 5.5.4to host several sites with NO complaints,using Fedora Core 2 Linux 2.6.11.9 and Plesk 7.

Now I want to turn it up a notchThe new server comes pre-installed with:Dual Core AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+2 x 2.2 GHz2 GB DDR RAMFedora Core 6 (Linux)Plesk 8

I don't want to interfer with Pleskby installing WebGUI, this is why I think a source install would be better???

I don't need Plesk to administer WebGUI sites,that I do manually, I use plesk to create and managemy vhosts, and manually add any site to use WebGUI.

My questions are:Source install or WRE?Anyone else using the same enviroment with tips?

I made a feeble attempt last year to do this,and although I managed to install and run webgui and spectrethey were never able to communicate with the vhost.

This week a fresh approach.I will have many question to come.

Thanks,

I would reccomend using the WRE to run your webgui sites on and perhaps use plesk to proxy the requests to your WebGUI sites running on WRE on a different port.

Since it has been some time since you posted this question, what did you do in the mean time?

I agree with koen here. I have been running WRE with plesk for over a year. My plesk server could only use MySQL4 so the "source" option included an install of MySQL 5 anyway.

However, having said that the only issue is mod_proxy. So, my environment runs using the original plesk Apache instance as mod_proxy handing off requests to the WRE mod_perl Apache instance. I use a http.include with plesk cmd line to shoehorn the directives into the relevent vhost file without them getting clobbered when something else changes (I also host non-WebGUI on the same server using the plesk system).

WRE uses a non-standard place to find the MySQL conf file so this is great if you need to run two separate versions simultaneously. Also, you will need a unique *nix user to run the WRE MySQL separate from the existing one - probably the same is true for the WRE Apache; I cannot remember off-hand.
