suPHP 500 Internal Server Error

Hi
Ive just setup ISPConfig and its looking lovelly all except my php seems to have stopped working when i installed ISPConfig

I had a fresh install of FC4 and had mod_suphp running fine on apache2.0 now ive installed ISPConfig I get an Internal Server Error 500 when i try to access any .php files

any ideas?

----edit
a little more info

Im wondering weather my setup was correct

I installed FC4
then yum install httpd
yum install php
yum install mod_suphp

edit httpd.conf and add
'AddHandler x-httpd-php .php'
<Location />
suPHP_Engine on
</Location>

And my phpinfo.php reports

CGI/Fastcgi

So I carried on and installed everything else, once ISPC was setup i created a website and uploaded my phpinfo.php file and this is when i get the 500 internal server error

Further Developments

Hi

I've now had some more time to play around with this and have discovered that itdoes not seem to be a problem with the php setup but more of a permission problem

when a file is uploaded by ftp it is given permissions of

rw-rw-r--
then when this file is accessed through a browser the following error is placed in my suphp log

[Tue Aug 22 14:57:05 2006] [error] Script (/var/www/web2/web/index.php) is writeable by others

however if i change the permossions of the file to

755 rwxr-xr-x

i get this and everything is fine

[Tue Aug 22 15:06:19 2006] [info] Executing /var/www/web2/web/index.php as user web2_matt (10009), group web2 (10008)

is i tpossible to change what permissions are assigned to a file when it is uploaded via ftp? i am using proftp

What am I doing Wrong

Ok
I have now compiled suphp so many time i ve lost count

it just wont work

First of all should I have a suphp.conf file in /etc

I have never had one in there or anywhere else except /etc/httpd/conf.d and this appears to be where you set the

; Security options
allow_file_group_writeable=true
allow_file_others_writeable=false
allow_directory_group_writeable=true
allow_directory_others_writeable=false


I have created one myself in /etc but it doesn't seem to do anything

the only way I can get suphp to work successfully is to do

yum install mod_suphp

then add
AddHandler x-httpd-php .php
suPHP_Engine on
to /etc/httpd.conf.httpd.conf

this runs fine as long as the files permissions are 644 and strangely uses my php installation in /usr/php/bin (which i was under the impression is a cli version as reported by php -v) which is no good in this case

if i compile it from scratch it just seems to do nothing

I have built and installed a sepearte cgi version of php5 in /usr/php5 and it still does absolutely nothing if i compile from scratch.

does anybody know if there is / should be a conf file using the yum install mod_suphp version??

there also does not seem to be any option in ./configure to prevent it checking group write permissions, only in the supposed conf file.

maybe I should be putting this file somewhere else on Fedora Core 4?

any ideas??

still getting nowhere <sigh>

ok

I found this

http://dries.ulyssis.org/rpm/packages/mod_suphp/info.html

and decided to give it a go

and indeed it has created for my a /etc/suphp.conf and all the trimmings but now when i load my phpinfo page to test it all i get is a blank browser window with a '>' in the top left corner and if i go to view source i get '<?php phpinfo() ?>>

I can't see anything in the error logs either

 

Can you post the URL of your phpinfo page? And also its document root (e.g. /var/www/web1/web)?

 

Hi @ all!

Unfortunately, I have the same problem!

I have perfect Debian Sarge & ISPConfig 2.2.8, have run PHP as Apache2 module, and now disabled "php4 module" and just exactly followed the HOW-TO http://www.howtoforge.com/apache2_suphp_php4_php5, and installed both (php4 and php5). The only difference is that I installed the newest version of suphp (0.6.2)...
- suphp log shows nothing
- apache2 log and log in /var/www/web5/log also nothing
- SuExec is ON in ISPConfig, maybe this is problem?
- what permissions should be on the php files (now 644)? And what for folders (755)?

URL = www.varazdinec.net/test/phpinfo.php

Vhost entry is as follows:

Code:

<VirtualHost Xx.Xx.Xx.Xx:80>
ServerName www.varazdinec.net:80

Yes, now is SuPHP turned OFF, but still not working, Error 500. You can see it at link in post above...

Could that be some problem with permissions? I've noticed on other servers that when PHP is apache-module then the permissions have to be more loose than when PHP works as CGI. And too loose permisions result in error 500. Is this set by Apache, and if yes is it modifiable?


EDIT:
Now I did a php4-cgi -v and here is the output :

Code:

PHP Warning:  Unknown(): Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php4/20050606/ming.so' - libming.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning:  Xdebug MUST be loaded as a Zend extension in Unknown on line 0
PHP 4.4.4-0.dotdeb.3 with Suhosin-Patch 0.9.6 (cgi-fcgi) (built: Nov 16 2006 11:18:39)

The same result is when I do php4 -v.

I searched the forum for ming.so problem, and found this topic - http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3328

I removed and then installed again the php4-ming package and now this is OK!

EDIT2 :
I have tried a2enmod mod_suphp and recieved :

Code:

This module does not exist!

apache2 -v :

Code:

Server version: Apache/2.0.54
Server built:   Jul 28 2006 09:04:55

- How to move from this apache2 (perfect debian) to new recompiled one with mod_suphp??
- Do I have to uninstall something (like PHP4) as PHP run before as a module?

 

Edit 3:
In log /var/www/web5/log/error.log I have found this :

Code:

[Mon Nov 27 13:55:21 2006] [error] [client 83.131.4.223] ParsingException in IniFile.cpp:130: Illegal line "[handlers] ;Handler for php-scripts"
[Mon Nov 27 13:55:21 2006] [error] [client 83.131.4.223] Premature end of script headers: phpinfo.php

And on http://www.suphp.org/FAQ.html :

now I'm not certain what, from where and where to I should copy. I purged php4-cli, is this OK ?

 

EDIT #4:
I've found also this references :
http://lists.marsching.biz/pipermail/suphp/2004-January/000179.html
http://lists.marsching.biz/pipermail/suphp/2004-January/000182.html

Should I recompile suPHP with explicit path to php4-cgi or it would then disable php4-cgi support?

 

Problem solved !

- deleted all php4 and php5 packages
- installed only php4-cgi and php5-cgi packages
- recompiled suphp following mentioned how-to
- I found that phpinfo.php file was 664 instead of 644, changed permission and it works now!

Now there is also one other problem left for me :
- In proFTPd config file Umask is correct (022), but files get perm. 664 upon FTP upload. Where to set Umask for files uploaded by FTP?

 

What's in /etc/proftpd.conf?

 

Here, I've attached the file ...

I also corrected Umask in suPHP.conf file, from 077 to 022, because my files were chmoded to 600 and folders to 700, and this doesn't work with J! and other systems...

 

And what's in /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf (please post it here directly instead of attaching it)?

 

Sorry, I tought it will save space ...

here is /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf

Code:

DefaultAddress 127.0.0.1
<VirtualHost XX.XXX.XX.XXX>
        DefaultRoot             ~
        AllowOverwrite          on
        Umask                   002
        <Anonymous /var/www/web3/ftp>
          User                          web3_anonftp
          Group                         web3_anonftp
          UserAlias                     anonymous web3_anonftp
          UserAlias                     guest web3_anonftp
          MaxClients                    10
          <Directory *>
            <Limit WRITE>
              DenyAll
            </Limit>
          </Directory>
          <Directory /var/www/web3/ftp/incoming>
            Umask                       002
            <Limit STOR>
              AllowAll
            </Limit>
            <Limit READ>
              DenyAll
            </Limit>
          </Directory>
        </Anonymous>
</VirtualHost>

As I see, here is Umask realy set to 002 instead of 022. I can change it here,but as I supose, ISPC. ads entries here and future FTP accounts will again have 002. Where to set this up so it get's set to 022 automaticaly??

 

You can change it in /root/ispconfig/isp/conf/proftpd_ispconfig.conf.master.

 

DONE! Thanks alot Falko for all the help and fast replies!!!
