    I posted this someware else and I do not know if it was suppose to post it in this area. Anyhow. I changed the file /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/config.inc.php. because I was getting errors on the php log
    HTML:
     an unknown filter was not added: PHP
    I added the string that was told in this posting.
    HTML:
    This has already been fixed many releases ago. You will just have to change the line from:
    
    $go_info["server"]["apache2_php"] = 'both'; // one string of one or more comma seperated options: 'filter' = set PHP filters, 'addtype' = Set PHP addtype, 'both' = Set Filter + Addtype, 'engine' = Use "php_admin_flag engine on/off", suphp = SuPHP wrapper enabled, 'addhandler' = Set PHP AddHandler (nescessary for SuSE 10.2)
    
    
    to:
    
    $go_info["server"]["apache2_php"] = 'addtype'; // one string of one or more comma seperated options: 'filter' = set PHP filters, 'addtype' = Set PHP addtype, 'both' = Set Filter + Addtype, 'engine' = Use "php_admin_flag engine on/off", suphp = SuPHP wrapper enabled, 'addhandler' = Set PHP AddHandler (nescessary for SuSE 10.2)
    
    
    in the file /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/config.inc.php
    
    I do not know if this is what caused the web server not to work, but after I changed this it stoped working. I had copied the file before I changed it, so I recopied it back to the server. But it did not fix it. I looked into apache file and can see red marks on two files. php4.conf and php4.load. this is the error message I get when booting the server.
    HTML:
    syntac error on line 185 of/etc/apache2/apache2.config could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/mods-enable/php4.load no such file or directory
    Now I have php5 on here. Why is it trying to load php4? Please help, my server is down. But I can login to the servers ispconfig councal, but my website is down. Thanks

    P.S. new info. I went to the files that had the red marks and tried to open them with winSCP and it is telling me. can't open remote file.then it has the path to the files (php4.config php4.load) I hope this helps. thanks

    Have you tried powering down the server after first re-storing original files, then re-powering it?

    cruz New Member

    yes I tried that 4 times. I found this when I tried to open the files I mentioned.
    Cannot open remote file '/etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php4.conf'.
    No such file or directory.
    Error code: 2
    Error message from server: No such file
    Request code: 3
    It seems the files are gone.

    Hmm, have you tried to re-install PHP5?


    When you say you are able to get to ISPConfig- are you accessing it VIA IP or domain?

    When you are logged into ISPConfig and select the Services tab what does ISPConfig report there?

    I can login to ispconfig, but the when I click on servic, the web-sever is offline. I can see php5.config and php5.load. I open them up and they are small text code. I am getting the error from the php4, not 5. I don;t understand half this stuff. If I can replace the two files, I think it will work, but I do not know what code to put in them.

    what does the server return when you run 'php -v' ?

    Try to restart ISPConfig '/etc/init.d/ispconfig_server restart'

    php -v command

    take a look at this.
    HTML:
    server1:~# php -v
    PHP Warning:  Module 'json' already loaded in Unknown on line 0

    Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2006 Zend Technologies
    what is json? this is what I get when I restart ispconfig
    HTML:
    server1:~# /etc/init.d/ispconfig_server restart

    I have been Googling the PHP module 'json', this module is used by a variety of differing applications.

    Here's what I Googled for you:

    Instead of restarting Lighhttpd your will restart apache2:
    '/etc/init.d/apache2 restart'

    Please view the source of the above: http://agaricdesign.com/projects/sites/wsf2008

    Google Search Term: php -v command shows module json loaded

    this is what i get

    I folowed everything and when I restarted apache, this is the error message I got.
    HTML:
    server1:~# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
    Forcing reload of web server (apache2)...grep: /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php4.load: No such file or directory
    grep: /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php4.conf: No such file or directory
    grep: /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php4.load: No such file or directory
    grep: /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php4.conf: No such file or directory
    apache2: Syntax error on line 185 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php4.load: No such file or directory
     failed!
    
    these are the files that I was telling you that are gone for some reason. I can not figure it out. can I do a debian perfect setup onanother pc and get the files from it and replace the ones that have the red marks on them? I have to get my site back online. Boy I need a backup plan in case this ever happens again. I thank you for the info.

    Can you open '/etc/apache2/apache2.conf' and see what you have on line '185'?
     
  12. cruz

    cruz New Member

    Yes I was thinking of that. Here is the line.

    Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.load

    It wants to load the files that are RED marked. the files that I talked above are in this file. It can not load them because they are not there. Well they are, but it tells me that they are missing when I try to open them. DOse anyone on here know how to replace the two files that are missing? Thanks for all the help.

    So lines 184, 185, and 186 are populated with
    # Include module configuration:
    Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.load
    Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.conf

    You must have quite a few special directives at the top of your apache2.conf file?
    The above lines in my server are at lines 115, 116, and 117


    Move to 'etc/apache2/mods-available/' and run 'cat php5.conf'- the results should look like this:
    Code:
    <IfModule mod_php5.c>
    #  AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml .php3
    #  AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
    </IfModule>
    
    Now run 'cat php5.load' which should look like the following:
    Code:
    LoadModule php5_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so

    OOPs, dual post- please ignore
     
  15. cruz

    cruz New Member

    Yes it came out just like yours did. What dose that mean? The ones in question are the php4, not php5. I do not know why it needs to load php4 when I have php5 installed. You wuld think that it would load the php5 files.

    take a look at this

    server1:~# httpd -t
    httpd: Syntax error on line 185 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php4.load: No such file or directory
    When I ran http -t I get this. HELP ANYONE THAT KNOWS HOW TO FIX THIS :{

    I can only suspect something within'/etc/apache2/apache2.conf' is wrong to be calling PHP4?

    Hey, did some digging right here at HTF and found a very intersting article which just might help get you back on track- take a crack at this and be sure to follow the instructions to the letter and it seems you would be able to re-store server function within an hour, give or take...

    Give it a shot, it's worth the try!

    What's the output of
    Code:
    ls -la /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
    and
    Code:
    ls -la /etc/apache2/mods-available
    ?

    I can not see php4 in here, but there are two files on the server that have red marks on them I can not remove them . I tried to move them off the server so that the php5 files may load. Man will I ever lear this stuff? thanks for all the help. I created another debian etch server. I was reading on how to backing up everything onto it so I can get online again. I don't want to get stuck like this again. I made the 2nd server with the same domain, but used server2. my main server is server1. Is that how it is to be setup?

    You have PHP5 installed, not PHP4. Do you need PHP5 or PHP4?

    server install

    I setup the server with The Perfect Setup - Debian Etch (Debian 4.0). the error I am getting is comming from two files that are php4. I think I am running 5. It dose not note that it is php5 on the install page for my install. I guess I need 5. It was working great affter the install.

    these are the ones that are trying to load.
