Apache won’t start and there is nothing in the logs

by admin on Sep.07, 2009, under DirectAdmin

Chance are, if apache isn’t starting and isn’t logging anything, the error_log is full preventing apache from starting. To double check that, run:

cd /var/log/httpd
ls -lS | less

If any file is around 2-3 gig (or more), then chances are, that’s the problem.
The solution is to remove the logs, restart apache, and then implement preventative measures.
1)

cd /var/log/httpd/
rm -f error_log
rm -f access_log
rm -f suexec_log
rm -f fpexec_log
/sbin/service httpd restart ("/usr/local/etc/rc.d httpd restart" for FreeBSD)

2) Get logrota to rotate daily

perl -pi -e ’s/weekly/daily/’ /etc/logrotate.conf
perl -pi -e ’s/rotate 4/rotate 2/’ /etc/logrotate.conf

If apache still doesn’t start, check /var/log/messages and try recompiling apache.

cgi files generate Internal Server Error

by admin on Sep.07, 2009, under DirectAdmin

This means that the cgi script did not execute properly. There are several causes that can generate this error so a few things would need to be checked.
1) check the /var/log/httpd/suexec_log. It contains any errors that would be as a result of not having correct permissions on the file. The file needs to be in a cgi-bin and must have the owner/group as the username who owns the site. If it’s owned by anyone else, it will not run. Also, the script must have execute permission. The most common chmod permission is 755. Go through all directories from the public_html down to the directory the script is in, and make sure they’re all set to 755 (public_html can be 750 *only* if it has a group of apache).
If the suexec_log only shows the script being run, then the cause may be with the script code itself. The easiest way to figure out script coding problems is to first run the script manually from an ssh prompt.

cd /home/username/domains/domain.com/public_html/cgi-bin
./script.cgi

One common error is to use an incorrect interpreter. The 2 most common interpreters are:

#!/usr/bin/perl

and

#!/usr/local/bin/php

This code must appear on the first line of the script. Sometimes a file is uploaded in windows format so the trailing newline (return) character is formed incorrectly and the file would need to be re uploaded in a different format.
Other errors that would be generated when running the script manually from ssh would be missing perl modules, in which case you’ll need to install them yourself. Cpan is the easiest method to install new perl modules, e.g.:

perl -e shell -MCPAN
install Bundle::DBD::mysql

LXAdmin Administrator Tutorial

by admin on Feb.16, 2009, under Tutorial

1. INTRODUCTION

1a. Introduction

LXadmin “Host in a box” is the only control panel that makes use of Lighttpd and DJBDNS which only uses 8 MB of RAM with a freshly installed system. The control panel itself uses 1 MB of RAM when idle. LXadmin “Host in a box” is part of LXadmin, the leading light-weight control panel in the industry. The only difference between the two is the use of different daemons.

This lightweight control panel has all of the features included in all leading control panels such as mail, spam filter, PHP, CGI, Perl, SUexec, FTP, MySQL and much much more. You will get to find out more in this document as you read.


2. THE BASICS

2a. Accessing the control panel

There are several ways to access LXadmin:

http://yourdomain:7778 – You can access the control panel through any hosted domain by putting :7778 at the end of the domain.

https://yourdomain:7777 - You can access the control panel securly using SSL through any hosted domain by putting :7777 at the end of the domain.

http://192.168.0.1:7778 or https://192.168.0.1:7777 - You can access the control panel through any IP address allocated to the server.  This is useful when your domain transfer has not yet propagated.

A window (top right image) will appear.  Enter your username and password and you should have successfully logged in.

login

2b. Changing your password

2b
To change your password, click client home and then on the top right corner, you will see the password tab. Click on it and fill in your existing password and the new password twice and click Update.

2c. Adding a DNS Template

You have to add a DNS template initially. DNS template is the DNS configuration which will be copied to your domain’s DNS when a new domain is created. For adding a DNS template, you have to basically specify the primary and secondary nameservers for the domains you are planning to create on this server. For instance: ns1.lxlabs.com and ns2.lxlabs.com . The name is simply an identifier which will be used later when creating the domain.

For creating a new DNS template,

go to “Client Home” page and under “Domains“, click the “DNS Templates” icon

In the DNS Templates page, you can see the list of existing DNS templates. If you do not have any existing DNS template, create a new DNS template by clicking the “Add DNS Template” tab on the top.

In the next page, enter the DNS information for the template:

Click the “Add” button and the new DNS template is created. You can see the new DNS template in the list of DNS Templates

Click on the new DNS Template name to edit DNS records like NS, A, CNAME, MX and TXT

2d. Add a Reseller

Before you proceed to add a new Reseller, you have to add a new plan for the new client/reseller
To add a new plan,

To add a new plan, click “Client Plans” icon

In the next page, click the “Add Client Plan” tab.

Here you can enter the plan details like:

Client Plan name)
Description of the plan
Number Of Clients allowed
Number Of Domains allowed
Disk Usage (in MB)
Number Of Subdomains allowed
Mail Disk Usage (in MB) limit
Number Of Autoresponders allowed

Ability to Enable Statistics
Ability to Enable Cgi
Ability to Enable Php
Ability to Enable Asp.net (ignored On Linux)
Allow Scheduler Management or not
Allow Backup Scheduling or not
Allow Backing Up or not
Can Manage DNS or not

Once you have created the plan, go back to the “Client Home” page and click the “Clients” button link

This page will list your existing customers and resellers. If you do not have any, click on either the “Add Reseller” tab that you see on the top.

In the “Add Reseller” page, enter a name for your Reseller, password and email address.
If you enable the “Send Welcome Message” check box, an email with the account details will be sent automatically to the Reseller’s email address.
Select the plan you have created earlier and click “Add” button.

Now in the “Clients” page, you should be able to see the new Reseller that you have created:
