PHP dead after 7.2.0 R39 upgrade

[zartanch]

Hi,

We got the message about Apache being outdated and needing to be patched so we tried via the new 7.2.0's web link and it just hung.

Now PHP doesn't work on all the websites on our server.

How do we get it working? We've done easyapache twice and cpanel upgrade to R40.

Thanks,
Z

Try looking at a few threads here. If you had one of the incompatible modules....

Had the same issue here. Recompile Apache (trough the link) and NOT selecting phpsuEXEC will solve the problem (for the moment), but obviously phpsuEXEC won't work then.

At least, my sites are online again (but it would have been nice not to find out this way !!)

cd && cd ../usr/local/apache-jul16
cp -a ./domlogs ../apache/domlogs
cat ./conf/httpd.conf > ../apache/conf/httpd.conf


Then..

cd && httpd stop (A few times until it says 'Not running.' ..) . . .
httpd startssl

Copy the module it complains is missing from..

/usr/local/apache-jul16/libexec

TO

/usr/local/apache/libexec

..and run the whole `cd && httpd stop` and `httpd startssl` a couple more times after copying more modules and it'll start again.


EasyApukeOnMe sucks man; it never fails thisa way. . .

You may need to edit the php.ini files to reflect the correct sendmail path as well --> /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i

I noticed it had come up with only 'exim' after either the newest Apache rebuilds.. or CPanel upgrades.... BAH.


[EDIT] There's also the rare occasion where if you try to run `httpd startssl` it'll say something like 'could not be started' ..in which case, if you run ...

cd && tail -f ../usr/local/apache/logs/error_log

...and it mentions something about 'Too many open files' ...or whatever, run these . . .

cd && httpd stop (Be sure it's stopped!)
ulimit -n 16384
httpd startssl

Thas it.
