In one of topic i found advice, to investigate this file doing:

$ gdb /usr/bin/php core.xxxx

- bash: $:command not found (translation from Russian)

What dos it mean? Is there a problem with server or another sort of problem. I ask you due because today i tried 3 times log in via shell, and 3 times i got replay - server reset connection unexpected. In 4 time i am in, but command answer didn't work properly.

$ gdb /usr/bin/php core.xxxx

- bash: $:command not found (translation from Russian)

You don't need to type $ on the prompt. It was mentioned to let uses know that the command gdb /usr/bin/php core.xxxx needs to be executed on the prompt.

OK i typed

gdb /usr/bin/php core.xxxxx and answer is -bash: command not found

gdb is the GNU Project debugger so make sure its installed on your server. If its not you can download it from here and install it.

is it to possible install this script via web?

[Zishan]

Unfortunately not. You will need to login to server as a root user using SSH and install it.
