cpsrvd failed @... A restart was attempted automagicly.

[PowWeb]

Every to minutes I get the following email:

cpsrvd failed @ Mon Oct 25 22:48:49 2004. A restart was attempted automagicly.


Also none of my acocunts can open cpanel.

I have tried everything I can think of. I have tried to restart the service (service cpsrvd start) but when I do I get the following error cpsrvd: unrecognized service. I have forced a rebuild of cp. I have tried to rebuild apache but it will not complete it just hangs in WHM. I am at my witts end. My NOC has been no help so far. Support ticket has been open for 12 hours on this and cPanel Inc will not help me until my NOC gives up. Can any one please help???

What reports when you restart cpanel manually ?
# service cpanel restart

[Sinewy]

if that fails: /scripts/upcp --force

[PowWeb]

Done all that... After 16hours down my noc had me rebuild apache. Then apache crashed and then I could not evern serve web pages. So we ended up transfering all the accoutns to anther server and reinstalling os.

Do you have Fantastico installed?
Do you have domains running old PHPBB scripts?
Do you have suexec compiled in apache?

That can be the problem for cpsrvd failing. This process cpsrvd is your cpanel daemon, webmail daemon, and WHM daemon, in one process. Maybe some script is loading to much cpsrvd.

My eximstats is started OK (Starting eximstats: [ OK ]) but when I check services trough WHM service status I see "eximstats failed". Process /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/cpanel/bin/eximstats is running normaly. Any ideas why?

[chirpy]

Have you tried restarting chkservd?

service chkservd restart

[MMarko]

Yes, and still shows "failed".


ps copy/paste

3632 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/cpanel/bin/eximstats


cpanel copy/paste

eximstats failed

[pshepperd]

did you install exim stats manually or did cpanel do it for you?

/scripts/eximup --force

[MMarko]

It came with cPanel. I have stopped it, and then when I try to enable it again and cPanel now always shows "failed" status

[MMarko]

I have just updated exim with /scripts/eximup --force and cpanel still shows "failed". No idea why.

[pshepperd]

ok then did you restart checkservd? or checkserved i forget which one.
