Software To Monitor And Restart Services
In the past i've read up on software capable of restarting services that go down. I was wondering what the best free option is right now. I've got three dedicated centos boxes that I need to monitor. I don't need to monitor them all from one place, but would like something that can identify processes such as httpd, mysql, and mydns, then restart them if necessary.

Monitor Ports / Services
I need a simple basic server monitoring software that will do usual ports (ping, httpd, pop3, ssl, etc) and also notify me via sms (or email) of high server load (cpanel/whm). I need something that is NOT nagios (ugly, too complex to setup), zenoss (cannot figure out what on earth to do to setup simple port monitoring, but nice interface). Must be for linux with mysql 5 / php 5 compatible.

Cron Job Not Working, Restart Services
I'm having a bit of trouble with one cron job that doesn't seem to work. I have others scripts that run hourly fine. However this one does not. The script: restart_monitoring.sh Code: #!/bin/bash service iptables stop service iptables start /root/bandwidth_rules.sh /root/portforward_config.sh exit The two scripts at the end just load a lot of iptables rules back in. The cron job should run hourly (59th minute) The cron job entry Code: 59 * * * * /root/restart_monitoring.sh I have restart crond to enable the new job, still doesn't run. The job is to restart iptables, thus flushing all rules that I have running, then reloading them. I have figured out the problem to be with the "service iptables stop/start" command, it doesn't seem to like doing this...?

What Do You Monitor
if you use a site monitoring service (or two) do you need to setup monitors for each website/domain on your VPS or can you just monitor the primary services on the VPS? Pluses/Minuses for either way?

Apache Down - Can't Restart
I'm running Apache 2.0.52 on a CentOS 4.4 server. Running two static sites and one CMS. I have no trouble logging in through SSH Also no problem accessing webmin on port 10000 I've tried to restart Apache httpd And tried to reboot the server... Nothing. I recently did a Yum Update, also removed ISPconfig - it's probably the latter thats the problem, although I haven't used it - at all - just playing around setting up PHPmyadmin, Squirrelmail and a couple of email accounts. But the only error log output I get is that there are no virtual servers for 88.198.81.186:80 and 88.198.81.187:80 and Unable to open logs | unable to start piped log program Since the update and removal of ISPconfig 4-5 days ago there hasn't been any issues. I haven't done anything. Yet I do think might be some of the old ISPconfig settings acting up.

Server Restart
I'm on my first VPS with Virtuozzo / WHM and I'm wondering about what some general guidelines regarding best practices are in regards to restarting services and or the server. Specifically, I'm wondering what a good time frame it to restart the server and sevices. I've been told VZ doesn't need to be restarted, but I figured that by restarting VZ, I restart everything at once... is this bad? How often should I do this or not do this? Alternatively, if I just restart specific services, what is your experience on a good timeline and what services are important to restart? I've read that mysql doesn't need to be restarted, but am wondering EXIM, http server, dns server, pop3 server, imap server, etc.... specifically what good schedule would be regarding restarting. I'm simply trying to avoid issues that may occur due to not restarting and trying to be proactive as my clients are extremely important to me... ...

Apache2ctl Restart
I'm having problems with Apache 2.0.54 on my Debian server. The command "apache2ctl restart" will not work properly. Let me explain. Whenever I run "apache2ctl restart" Apache will tell me it's running with no problems while it actually isn't. I run "apache2ctl start" and it tells me that httpd is already running according to a PID. When I need to restart Apache I need to go and run "apache2ctl stop" and "apache2ctl start" which seems to work effectively. I tried recoding the system to run these two commands in the Perl backend of my web hosting control panel, but these two commands don't work since they seem to run at the same time. So my question is this: how can I get the "apache2ctl restart" command to work again? Or better yet, how do I get Perl to run the "apache2ctl stop" and "apache2ctl start" commands without having them being run simultaneously?

Monitor Application
I want to monitor my application to make sure it is 24x7 uptime, if there is anything interrupt, I will be notified by email/SMS right away. There are several web monitoring service, but they all monitor ports, not application. I have bad experience, like, althoguh the web server is alive, but the application is already dead. So, I want to monitor application instead of monitor a port. Anybody knows where I may find this kind of service?

Can't Restart Iptables On My Dedi
I shut down iptables on my dedi to try to install Poweradmin but, when the install did not work (probably because DirectAdmin was controlling files and processes I needed for the package) I attempted to restart iptables by running "/etc/init.d/iptables restart" and "service iptables start". It didn't restart. I restarted the webserver running "/etc/init.d/httpd restart". I even rebooted the dedi. Still, no iptables.

Apache Won't Restart (FreeBSD 6.1)
Server runs FreeBSD 6.1 and WHM/CPanel. Everything was working as usual, no changes were being made to the server, and all of a sudden all the web sites went down. WHM and CPanel and SSH remained accessible. Restarting Apache (HTTPD) through WHM gives an error: "httpd has failed, please contact the sysadmin." Rebooting the server didn't help, httpd still won't restart. Attempting to do it via SSH gives this error: server# /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart: httpd not running, trying to start Syntax error on line 210 of /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/apache/libexec/libphp4.so into server: /usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.14: Undefined symbol "gethostbyname_r" /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart: httpd could not be started # tail -f /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log only shows some standard http errors for files not being found.

Remotely Restart A Server By IP
I don't know if this is possible after searching on the internet for solutions. Here is the problem. I recently logged off my colocated server 2 days ago, and have been trying to log into it again like I always do using remote desktop. Each time I try it gives me this following error: "This computer can't connect to the remote computer. Try connecting again. If the problem continues, contact the owner of the remote computer or your network administrator." I've had this server colocated for about 5 months now and I've never had any issues connecting remotely to it. Seems like Remote Desktop got broken somehow, or it's being blocked? I am an admin with logins/passwords etc. The OS is Windows Server 2003 R2, I'm not connected to a remote reboot console. I don't want to have to call the data center for remote hands on support for a restart if that's not going to fix the issue, from what I've heard they charge quite a bit.

Apache Restart Issue
I am having an issue with apache. Want to know how people are running huge forums having 700 800 users online at a time. I am currently running a single forum having peak users upto 250, making posts and downloading files from within forum. Its running on dual opteron with 2 gig ram and its database is hosted on another cross connected dual opteron + 2 gig ram server. Although there are enough resources, no load is there but still apache just crahsed and restarts after 4 min interval. As it seems apache gets out of resources and crashes. how to allow apache to use more ram and cpu so that it simply don't crash.

How To Monitor Spammer Sactivity

I have sendmail installed to, but I don't think it is getting used.. I guess theres got to be a log somwhere... but I am not sure where it is? I have postfix set to CC me of all mail that gets sent but, it doesnt seem to work all the time.. just for certain things..

Sevices To Monitor With Nagios
I am wondering what services it is best to monitor with Nagios which I've installed on my Centos 5.3 VPS. I wish to monitor and understand all essential services of the VPS itself at this stage but, generally, to make the best possible use of Nagios as an analytical tool as well as basic monitoring notifications, etc. I already have a rough idea based on the main services being run. But I imagine there may be more to this than meets the eye, in particular, in view of any potential performance cost, etc. I am especially keen to obtain as detailed a picture as possible concerning performance related criteria with a mind to indicating possible improvements that could be made.
