PHP-FPM - Default Issue with Ioncube/Wordpress

Hello,
This is my first time using ISPConfig on my dedicated server and I am almost satisfied with it. Just this issue with my wordpress that uses a theme which relies on Ioncube. Once I installed this latter any wordpress page reloads and loads forever.. And Even when it at last stops loading, I see bad gate way 502 or my wp-admin finally loads, but the website index.php shows empty always.

The weird thing is that I have another website with wordpress installation (but No Ioncube being used) And that website loads like a rocket.

This is my phpinfo

Ioncube zend_extension is declared at "/etc/php5/fpm/conf.d/00-ioncube.ini"

 

you can check the error-log for this site. i have ioncube-installed for all php-versions and this works without a problem. maybe your theme is broken.

 

Thanks for the hint! I have actually check it and found that php5-fpm/web1.sock was not connecting. So I technically deleted web1 website and created a new one with my domain and It connects now. And the website theme loads, but it takes like 20 - 30 seconds. So it's definitely not a broken theme because I have been using it for 2 years now and previously in Ubuntu 14.
Btw Please have a look at this:

Isn't mysql way too high ?
Thanks

 

And could you share the guide you used to install ioncube with ispconfig and php 5.6? THanks

 

By "previously in Ubuntu 14", what do you mean? Did you upgrade your Ubuntu OS recently? If you do, note that the default php for Ubuntu 16 is 7.0 and Ubuntu 18.04 is 7.2, which means that /etc/php5 folder should not be working anymore. If you use either Xenial or Bionic, you should either compile your own php5.6 or add ondrej php repository to install it. The default new folder for php file using ondrej compiled php it will be /etc/php/5.6, and this where you should add your ioncube and set the same to be used in ISPConfig additional php settings.

 

I have actually abandoned Ubuntu and this was a fresh install of Debian with ISPConfig. I have successfully compiled 5.4 & 5.6 & 7.0. I think my website will work if I switch PHP Mode! I'm 100% sure I need it to be able to choose Fast-CGI or Mod-PHP


Why I don't have them on my ISPConfig? And How I add them?

 

Sorry to say that most newbies think they compiled their php properly and yet most of the time they did not and end up asking unnecessary questions in here.

My advise is get your basic right, read and understand howtoforge.com tutorial for adding php to debian manualy and you should know where to add them without a need to ask so much.

Note the path for php5.6 (or other php) manual compilation is different from ondrej php and it is normally in /opt/php-5.6 (change the version number for other php).

 

I have compiled and added php 5.6, php 5.4 and php 7.1 and also added them through ISPConfig "Additional PHP Versions"
I have two website, one website using the manual 5.6 and loads like a rocket but the other website with a huge database and ioncube takes 20 -30 seconds to loads. Here is a screen from my actually ispconfig:


And that link you referenced, It was the one I used to install 7.1 and 5.6 but others from other source. Please read my previous reply and again and answer my actual question which was: Why I don't have those PHP Modes and How to enable them on my ISPConfig?
Because On my previous installation on Ubuntu I used Plesk and I had my php version as Fast-CGI which worked better for me.

 

My ISPConfig version is: 3.1.12 While the demo website seems to be Version: 3.1. Is it why I can't see those php modes?

 

Shouldn't that depends on what you have compiled, installed and enabled?

 

Thank you Till! So I need to reinstall ISPConfig with Apache to have those options?

 

I have everything setup correctly and as i said earlier the other wordpress website works like a charm! And these are nginx settings I am using:
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}

# Add trailing slash to */wp-admin requests.
rewrite /wp-admin$ $scheme://$host$uri/ permanent;

location ~* \.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|css|js|ico)$ {
expires max;
log_not_found off;
}

Could you please guys answer my question! How to have those php modes enabled? Do I have to reinstall ISPConfig?
Otherwise I have no choice but to go back to Plesk and resintall things back to were. I remember that I had FastCGI with Nginx, so I don't understand what's going on with this ispconfig!!

 

See the problem here is I meant no offence by saying "I have no choice but to go back to plesk", I was being honest and wasn't trying to flame or insult anyone. When I first heard about ISPConfig and saw many tutorials and guides about it I was really hyped to try it on my production server directly. Which is exactly What I am doing now!! It is running on my production website and it is not working!! So now Instead of answering my question, you bash me with that sentence as if I am the villain.

If FastCGI and Nginx are not the problem, could that be mysql? Because I have posted earlier a screen of top commands but no one seemed to be interested in having a look at it Just ahrasis implying that I am a newbie and he actually had no idea and haven't even read post.

 

Offence none taken! Ok, I believe you!

Yes, I have a large database and I regularly optimize/repair my tables. some of my tables use Innodb for read/write queries and some use MyISAM for mainly read queries. And as far as actual optimization of mysql I never had to, but I use cache plugins and native cache extension Redis and Xcache . Just before I installed debian and ISPConfig; I had Ubuntu 14 with Plesk 12 and both my websites loaded blazing fast for over 3 years not a single day my server shutdown. My hardware is pretty decent 16 Gb Ram and Xenon. my swap is as high as 22 GB.
What should I do now?
