It is no longer possible to login to the ISPconfig control panel after following this tutorial to install php 5.5: http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-build-php-5.5-php-fpm-and-fastcgi-with-ioncube-loader-zend-opcache-and-apcu-for-ispconfig3-debian-wheezy I have the following error: Error Username or Password empty mysql error logs are blank I am stumped, anybody know what is wrong?
I guess you accidently overwrte the System php with your custom php version. This can happen when one of the \ in the configure command is missing. To fix that, check the folder /usr/local/bin/, if there is a file named php or php-cgi inside, then rename that file to e.g. php_bak or php-cgi_bak and restart apache.
Then the php-fpm seehs to be overwritten. Please serach for a php-fpm binary in /usr/local/bin/ and rename that.
Sorry about the late reply, got caught up in the football fever There is no php-fpm binary in /usr/local/bin/ What have I done wrong?
Sorry till but you have to excuse my lack of knowledge with the technicalities, but what do you mean by?
Login to your server as root user on the shell, then execute the following commands: which php which php-cgi then copy the output (result) that you get from these commands and post it here in the forum.
Please run: mv /usr/local/bin/php /usr/local/bin/php.bak mv /usr/local/bin/php-cgi /usr/local/bin/php-cgi.bak then restart apache and try to login to ispconfig again.
Please put a info.php file with the content: <?php phpinfo(); ?> in the folder /usr/local/ispconfig/interface/web/ then open the url to it with your browser (https://yourdomain.tld:8080/info.php) and check which php binary is used.
sorry, my post above should have gone into another thread. The php version is ok, seems to be the system php. Please check in the phpinfo output if the mysql extension is enabled in this php.
