Running Apache 2.2.2 and PHP 5.2.5, and my error_logs are filling up with PHP notices. I'd like to turn this feature off, but I must be missing something here. I've edited the php.ini and set error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE, and reloaded apache, but I still get the same php notices over and over again in the httpd error log.

TITLE: Are frequent failure notices common with VPS hosting?
We have a VPS1 account at Liquid Web ($60/month). Below I have copied just the most recent series of failure notices (clamd, cpsrvd, exim, ftpd, mysql, pop, spamd). We tend to receive these by e-mail on a fairly regular basis, accompanied by the usual message "A restart was attempted automagicly."
Since March 2006, when we first switched our web host to LW, there have been well over a hundred of them.
My question is: Are such frequent failures commonplace (i.e.: benign) on a VPS, or should I be concerned about them?
I usually check our web site after receiving each notice, and it is always up by the time I get there. Nevertheless, it would be nice to know if all these occurrences are considered normal. For example, 19 exim failures over a 6.5-hour span on 9/29/07 do seem a bit extreme.
If anyone reading this thread is technically inclined, I'd like to know what process or hardware state is usually responsible for causing such failures.
FYI, I use cPanel in my web browser to administer the site from a Macintosh computer running OS 9.2.2. I have never used SSH, and have also never read any raw logs. If I did, I'm not sure what they would tell me about this, anyway.
I should also say that our site uses nowhere near the capacity provided by our VPS1 account. We are well below the maximum HD space and monthly allowable bandwidth. The site uses only standard HTML, text include files, and GIF/JPG graphics files; no streaming. There is only limited use of a CGI script for routine form submissions, and currently there are no PHP scripts running for BBs, calendars, blogs, chat rooms, or any MySQL databases being used. In short, I would think that the site places little load on the server or its processes.
I would greatly appreciate any feedback.

(Note that our real host name has been replaced above with "xxxxxx" to prevent possible spamming.)
I would appreciate any comments from experienced VPS customers or technicians, as to whether these incidences are considered normal with all VPS accounts, or if they might be indicative of a more severe problem with our web host's (Liquid Web) server.
As I mentioned on 11/29/07, "I use cPanel in my web browser to administer the site from a Macintosh computer running OS 9.2.2. I have never used SSH, and have also never read any raw logs. If I did, I'm not sure what they would tell me about this, anyway."
In the course of reading a number of posts in another WHT thread, there seems to be little agreement on the possible causes. Some have suggested that (1.) there may be "no space left on the device"; (2.) we may be "out of Semaphores" (I have no idea what those are!); (3.) we may be "out of RAM"; (4.) "/tmp is full"; or that (5.) "something is wrong with /tmp permission."
When I inquired in 2006 to Liquid Web's technical support about these recurrent failures, I was told that they are normal with this sort of hosting account. We pay them a hosting fee with the expectation of receiving an accurate diagnosis, but it would be very helpful to receive some impartial, third-party input.
I have installed APC on our Windows server. After I enable APC and restart apache our pages throwing Lots of PHP Notices.

Is it possible to log only SQL queries/transactions for a single account (domain)?
I can easily enable logging for the entire server, but I really only need it for a single domain.
MySQL version 5.0.67
Firstly this question is not related to running a web hosting business, but to dedicated servers hosting our own websites.
I was just wondering, other than security reasons, what is the importance (if any) of keeping Apache/WWW logs? Are there legal reasons?
If it is best to keep Apache logs, how should we go about this? If we don't look after them properly there will be massive amounts of logs being kept - what is the best way to store them? I know they can be "rolled over" and kept for a certain amount of time, which is the best utility to do this?
The OS is Linux (CentOS) and the web servers are Apache and Lighttpd.
and should proxy/gateway/cache server logs be kept?
I just bought a new dedicated server and have got Lxadmin on it. Now lxadmin , automatically uses a different loggin system than I would want it to use. It creates a seperate log file for each doamin.
They are located in /home/httpd/EXAMPLE.com/stats
EXAMPLE.com-error_log
EXAMPLE.com-custom_log
Now the problem is that I have literally hundreds of domains and I want it to instead log at a single place and not at these hundreds of seperate places.
This is the root cause of my problem
# The location and format of the access logfile (Common Logfile Format).
# If you do not define any access logfiles within a <VirtualHost>
# container, they will be logged here. Contrariwise, if you *do*
# define per-<VirtualHost> access logfiles, transactions will be
# logged therein and *not* in this file.
I am unable to have any kind of centralised logging command because of the individual entries for each Virtual host.
Even if i can manually remove those entries once, and new domain created by lxadmin will have that same problem. Morevoer, any kind of update of lxadmin which rebuilds the database will also ruin all the hardwork that I put in.
Is there any suggestion / solution to this problem? Have centralised data at one place in a single file?
Who here uses remote logging?
If yes state what you are using after voting on the poll.
We have quite a large number of servers now but I'm now finding it harder and harder to keep log of the number of details for it. How do the bigger guys keep control on this? Ie: Keeping logs of the serial/product keys of each part in the server, where they were ordered from, what date was it ordered etc?
My collection of growing motherboard, ram, processor boxes (which all store the serials of the products on) are now slowly taking over the office even when flat packed. I normally just write on each of the boxes where the product was ordered from, date of order and server name. While this is all well and good.. 50 servers later it can be a bugger to find the serial of that dedi mobo without going to the DC.
I tried my efforts at a simple Access database but I kept finding I spent more and more time typing in complex keycodes into the DB and just gave up. When this has been done it sounds nice and easy but then I hit another stump.
Ontop of logging a new servers details, how do you log which server is available to be sold, who its been sold too? ATM we have a VPN shared spreadsheet with all the details in (praying that the other employees will actually update it) but Im not sure if it will stand up when it hits 100+ servers rather than the 50+ atm.
For some reason on a box I have, it takes 25 seconds from the time I hit enter for a usernames password for it to login via SSH. I am running CentOS 4.4
Is there something I can check to see why it is taking so long and/or fix this?
Just turned on extended logging in exim. Went through the log (exim_mainlog) and have thousands of these:
2007-01-08 01:44:10 cwd=/tmp 2 args: /usr/sbin/sendmail -bS
2007-01-08 01:44:12 cwd=/tmp 2 args: /usr/sbin/sendmail -ti
2007-01-08 01:44:50 cwd=/tmp 2 args: /usr/sbin/sendmail -bS
Looked in the /tmp dir. and see nothing interesting. Looks like sendmail has been hijacked. Not sure what to look for now.
I have Cpanel VPS account, and have been regularly backing up all my outgoing emails (via SMTP, imap or webmail) with the following:
Added to following lines in /etc/antivirus.exim
Code:
if first_delivery
and ("$h_from:" contains "username@domain.com")
then
unseen deliver "backup@anotherdomain.com"
endif
So, this worked well for the longest time. At some point it 'disappeared' and stopped working which I guess was due to some update, and putting it back it got it working again.
Recently, I had a new vps, moved my domain there and dropped the same bit in, but this time around, it didn't work.
Is it possible that antivirus.exim isn't being parsed? How do I check? Or is there somewhere else I can stick it into so it'll always work and not get replaced by some cpanel update?
Is there any script which keep logging CPU and memory usage, sometimes server crashes and i want to know what caused it
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm looking at allowing remote telnet into my server.
like any security-minded administrator, I want to log what my users type on the telnet session.
I'm using the script command to generate transcripts of the users session.
I have /etc/profile set to automatically start the script command to log user activity, and in /etc/bash.bash_logout I have a command that emails me the transcript of the users' session.
All of the above works well except for one thing:
the users can type "exit" to escape from my script logging and any commands they type won't get logged.
Does anyone have snort logging to a mysql database?
I am trying to get that to work so I can view the alerts with BASE.
I followed the instructions but snort is not logging to the DB,
Does anyone have an app they use to track the bandwidth/usage for each connected computer/server?
we have multiple servers hooked up to one internet connection, all running miscrosoft windows software. Ideally i would like ONE of the servers running microsoft 2003 to log all others network usage.
All the servers do different things, so it would be great to check which are under most demand etc.
The other thing is, naturally i dont have screens for them all, only one. So this is the main reason for remote logging. Would be hassle to have to Remote desktop into each one to check how there doing every hour etc.

how to enable slow-query logging in MySQL ? Im using mysql version 4.1.20
well i just added following line in my.cnf can you please tell me is it correct way or not?

log-update = /var/lib/mysql/updates.log
I have Apache 2.4.6 x64 installation. With the lapse of time, more and more threads appear that are stuck in "L" state.
They are all gone after httpd restart, leaving 408 errors in access logs. What can be the reason?
Can mod_log_rotate be involved? Currently it's set to rotate every 2 days.
We have a VPS system running with Plesk but after a nightly automatic update there was a error message in Plesk, with a link to 'fix' the problem. After that Plesk stopped functioning. Now, when we log in with correct credentials (we know its correct because we if incorrect, we get a message its incorrect, so thats working) we're presented with this error:
Error: Call to a member function getName() on a non-object (MainMenu.php:48).
Since some days I have the strange issue that all logings from DrWeb is shown directly into the console. For example if I connect to my Server via SSH and then I sned an email to my email accoutn I see the logging of the spool.

this happens in my root shell. if I disable the Email check then this will not happen anymore. another strange issue is that if I restart drweb and I have more than 1 ssh shell open I see the output of the restart on all shells, this issue is only for drweb not for any other service. How to config drweb to log only into logfile not to the console?
I search the web and the only thing I can find was
[URL]
In the FreeBSD operating system, syslog service can intercept information output by Dr.Web Daemon to the console. In this case, the information is logged character-by-character. That occurs when the logging level is set to *.info in the syslog configuration file (syslog.conf).
I've got a problem at a local customer with rotatelogs.exe and the current release of Apache HTTPD 2.4.12.
I've downloaded the 64-bit zip-file (VC11) and installed the VC11 vcredist in both 32- and 64-bit version.
The project is to upgrade apache 2.2 to apache 2.4. I've adjusted the configuration and added rotatelogs for log rotation for error_log and access_log.
The configuration is 100% correct, I can copy the line to cmd.exe and it runs correctly.
Variables are set in global environment, APACHE_HOME is set with "/" instead of "" to get sure rotatelogs.exe is found.
how to turn off f-cgi?
Its causing big problem at my friend's site, it often leads to 500, 501 and 502 pages, earlier some one mentioned even fcgi could be reason for the error pages as it might show error page if php file takes longer time to load,
so I would like to to turn off fcgi at his site, he uses hypervm-lxadmin, I couldn't find an option when I searched, may be I have missed it, can u guide me through how to solve this issue
and I would like to know if turning off f-cgi will it cause any problem to the site, such as tech, issue to be fixed
