I had upgraded cpanel to EDGE to attempt to fix a php upgrade problem (as suggested by many on cpanel forums, but failed). I had downgraded back to RELEASE and attempted to reocmpile apache again back to the working php 4.4.2, got this:


pwd: cannot get current directory: No such file or directory
shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
chdir: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
sh: line 0: cd: lxdialog: No such file or directory
sh: /callbacklog: No such file or directory

I had to do a #8 default on /scripts/easyapache

Now no accounts are listed in whm > list accounts but the accounts ALL show (I memorize some hosted domains on this server) cpnael's default green page!

What is the fix for this?

I did updateuserdomains, fixeverything, created a new test account (this was noted as a fix for missing accounts in list).
Nothing worked.

I manualy reversed (restored) httpd.conf and now I cannot update apache via whm, only via easyapache. WHM shows page not found
when attempting to update. upcp --force a few times on release does nothing to fix it

pwd: cannot get current directory: No such file or directory

This is the tattle tale line in what you quoted ....

Anytime you use EasyApache to recompile apache, all of the apache folders are
actually deleted and re-created again.

If you are sitting in those folders or the modules or conf areas, then everything
will seem to disapear around you and you will get the error messages that
were displayed.

Basically, you need to recompile Apache from outside the Apache folder paths
when you do that and if you have any shell sitting in Apache folders after the
re-compile, you need to change to some other folder path like "/home" or
something and then come back to the folder again and then you will be
able to see things again.

That will deal with the errors you are describing. Now beyond that, whatever is
bringing down Apache is probably something else.

If all else fails, you can try re-compiling Apache with the "Last Resort" default config
which is recommended anyway if you are switching back and forth from 1.3x and 2.x
or vice versa since the httpd.conf really needs to be rebuilt from scratch for those.
