WHMCS client area blank

I was having an issue where WHMCS admin panel was working fine

However client area was showing blank page

So I enabled error logging in WHMCS in configuration.php file using below paraneter

$display_errors = true;

and tried accessing WHMCS client area
It showed Memory error which was a PHP memory issue 

Increasing PHP memory fixed the issue

error: libcare:3 bad rotation count ‘5

Got an error from Anacron below error

error: libcare:3 bad rotation count ‘5 # keep 5 last archives’
error: found error in /var/log/libcare/*.log , skipping

The fix to this issue was

open file 

/etc/logrotate.d/libcare

/var/log/libcare/*.log {
daily
rotate 5 #keep 5 last archives
missingok # it's ok if there is no such file
notifempty # do nothing if file is empty
compress
}

Remove line "#keep 5 last archives" and save file

This fixes the issue

Cannot open /var/log/sa/sa09: No such file or directory

Have been getting emails on below error

“Cannot open /var/log/sa/sa09: No such file or directory”

The solution is to reinstall cronie-anacron using command

yum reinstall cronie-anacron

    Resolving Dependencies
    There are unfinished transactions remaining. You might consider running yum-complete-transaction, or “yum-complete-transaction –cleanup-only” and “yum history redo last”, first to finish them. If those don’t work you’ll have to try removing/installing packages by hand (maybe package-cleanup can help).
