We had been working on installing windows vps on virtualizor
Intermittently its Internet would go off
The issue was due to NIC setting in VPS
We has to set the NIC type in VPS to e1000 to fix this issue
It can be done in Edit VPS > Advanced Option > Virtual Network Interface Type
Now we see vps working fine
While trying to upgrade cpanel to new version was getting error
FATAL: Failed to download updatenow.static from server:
The issue was due to corrupt RPM
I used the below fix to resolve this issue
mkdir /root/old_rpm_dbs/
Now move the original RPMs to the new folder
mv /var/lib/rpm/__db* /root/old_rpm_dbs/
Finally rebuild the RPM database
rpm --rebuilddb
Now you can force an update of the cPanel server and it should work again.
/scripts/upcp -force
While working on one of the nodes which has Virtualizor Software was facing issues accessing VNC . giving error failed to connected 1006
The issue was due to Virtualizor upgrade
Below is the command you need to execute to kill all process using below command for VNC to work
[root@os1126 ~]# kill $(pgrep -f “/usr/local/virtualizor/enduser/themes/default/novnc/utils/websockify”)
[root@os1126 ~]# kill $(pgrep -f “/usr/local/virtualizor/enduser/themes/default/novnc/utils/websockify”)
kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] pid | jobspec … or kill -l [sigspec]
Now after retrying accessing virtualizor I can see it working fine
The server was not allowing login to server even when ssh keys were saved
On rebooting server I could see it and error on screen “chown: Invalid username: root:Disk”
On troubleshooting found error to be due to corruption of /etc/passwd as this is where all users are saved and due to corruption the user root was missing in /etc/passwd
So I got the serve in single user mode and fastboot as only single user mode wont server and would restart
Once I got access to single user I just moved the /etc/passwd to /etc/passwd.bkp and copied /etc/paswd.OLD which was in /etc to /etc/passwd
Now on rebooting server i can see it working fine. 🙂
Normal rule in .htaccess to parse html files as php on easyapache 3 are not working on easyapache 4
#AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .htm .html
#<FilesMatch “\.(htm|html|php)$”>
#SetHandler application/x-httpd-php56
#</FilesMatch>
Below is the code which will need to be added In cpanel, multiphp manager will add the following for force a specific
version of php:
# php — BEGIN cPanel-generated handler, do not edit
# Set the “ea-php54” package as the default “PHP” programming language.
AddType application/x-httpd-ea-php54 .php .php5 .phtml
# php — END cPanel-generated handler, do not edit
Make sure the AddType and the selected php version matches! So there we go, simple when you know how.
While working on one of the issues came across the error cannot connect using curl_init in rvsitebuilder
The issue was a simple fix by skipping DNS checking by creating below file using command
touch /var/cpanel/rvglobalsoft/rvsitebuilder/var/skip_validate_domain
The issue got resolved with this fix
While working with one client I was getting below error in DNS
DNS error bad owner name (check-names) /tmp/cpanel
So I went ahead and checked DNS zone file using below command
root@vps [/var/named]# named-checkzone onlinecsource.com /var/named/onlinesource.com.db
/var/named/onlinesource.com.db:56: _autodiscover._tcp.cheapsalesleads.onlinesource.com: bad owner name (check-names)
/var/named/onlinesource.com.db:57: _autodiscover._tcp.cheapsalesleads.onlinesource.com: bad owner name (check-names)
zone onlinesource.com/IN: loaded serial 2017030209
OK
So the error pointed to line 56 and 57 in zone file
Went ahead and deleted the line 56 and 57 and reload DNS zone file
All works good now
While adding rDNS file in cpanel server I was getting below mentioned error
Sorry, the domain xx.xx.104.in-addr.arpa is owned by another user (nobody)
I have found that at one point in the past this domain was present on this server.
I have removed remnants of the domain from /var/cpanel/users/system and removed references to it from /etc/userdomains and /etc/remotedomains.
I then rebuilt the various caches:
====
/scripts/updateuserdatacache
/scripts/updateuserdomains
====
I am now able to add zone file without any issues
-bash-4.1# mysqldump satmn13_drup189 > satmn13_drup1891.sql
mysqldump: Got error: 1146: Table ‘satmn13_drup189.dr_cache_
-bash-4.1# mysqldump satmn13_drup189 –ignore-table=satmn13_
While working on one clients vps for incorrect disk usage stats for mails
While the default cpanel has no emails the usage stats showed 750MB.
After going through I found a issue which was causing this
The file causing this issue was maildirsize
maildirsize is the file which shows stats information for each account
root@vps [/home/designse]# find . -iname maildirsize
./mail/designserver.net/gordon/maildirsize
./mail/designserver/gordy/maildirsize
./mail/designserver/auctions/maildirsize
./mail/designserver/homemedia/maildirsize
./mail/maildirsize
I went ahead and deleted the file to fix this issue.
root@vps [/home/designse]# cd mail/
root@vps [/home/designse/mail]# rm -rf maildirsize
root@vps [/home/designse/mail]#
Now all stats shows right details
