@Boffice When you setup a new website from ISPConfig do you use your external IP address ?

If so, this was the problem for me, I used the container internal IP address and it fixed the issue.

@NightRang3r, Thank you for the response. after doing some work ground it works fine on default installation and gets messed up once i change ip to external and hostname to server provider.

but issue still happens when i install services example WordPress from ispconfig panel. not sure if it is docker or aws server resource issue of t2-micro.

p.s.
still didn't manage to understand how to access docker image files via winscp

@Boffice I think you should only use the internal ip address of the container for sites
About SCP, You should be able to use it if you mapped the ssh port e.g: '-p 2222:22'

just use scp to you server external ip on port 2222

That is strange, i try to access ssh via :2222 but it is giving me Access denied error.
i changed docker root password via passwd from docker exec -i -t jerob/docker-ispconfig bash.

@Boffice You can create a new user and add it to the sudo group and use it to connect

root access is probably restricted in the sshd configuration

@NightRang3r
Amazing, this worked!
p.s.
not to play around with security, is there a way to mount docker folder from the main server ?

[NightRang3r]

@Boffice Sure, check bind mounts

@NightRang3r
You are amazing.! i think my issue is linked to server resources since .html files work fine but .php files get glitched time by time with 503 error.

i will try to deploy container on my main server latter this week.

p.s.
If docker container gets hacked can attacker find his way out to root server files ?

@Boffice I am new to docker and not an expert but I have seen vulnerabilities in docker that may allow escaping to host, here’s an example:

Just make sure to change the default passwords for ISPconfig and mysql for this image.
