cerbot renew fails

restarting php5.6-fpm did the trick

Now checking the ispconfig let'sencrypt checkbox and save leaves the let'encrypt checkbox unchecked

Runing certbot -n renew gives many errors like:

Code:

Restarting php5.6-fpm did the trick

Now the website can't connect to DB and phpmyadmin complains

dpkg-l doesnt show any ref to php5.6-mysql is it normal ?
installied php-mbstring with no success and discover that it uses php5.6 ?! Why ?
update-alternatives --config php and php-cgi both show php7.3
I thought installing a complete buster from scratch would help but I find myself with a complete ununderstable and pretty time consuming configuration

 

Isn't the configuration always time-consuming?

 

You have to install the PHP mbstring module for all PHP versions you have on that host. Same for all required PHP modules.

 

There is no mbstring module for Sury php5.6-fpm

Code:

> dpkg -l php5.6*

Thanks a million guys. My websites are back now

Just one question: where is the phpmyadmin vhost configuration ? I'd like to figure out why it's on php5.6 instead of 7.3

 

Depending on your webserver setup, it could be on ispconfig.vhost or apps.vhost.

 

I see in /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/phpmyadmin.conf:

Code:

 SetHandler application/x-httpd-php 

How do I know to whitch php mod_php is connected ?
