Restarting Apache2 for fog vhost Failed!

[Wayne Workman]

@jeffj said in Restarting Apache2 for fog vhost Failed!:

LoadModule php5_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so

Change that to this:

LoadModule php7_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp7.so

And just see what happens. I don’t know if it will fix it or not.

Edit: I checked the /usr/lib/apache2/modules/ folder and there is a libphp7.0.so I believe that is where the problem lies. though fixing it i am unsure how to do.

In such case, make the line into:
LoadModule php7_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp7.0.so

Then try to restart apache.
service apache2 restart
service apache2 status -l

@Wayne-Workman

when doing that and trying to restart apache2 it errors out here are the error details

Job for apache2.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See “systemctl status apache2.service” and “journalctl -xe” for details.

here is the systemctl status apache2.service output:

@jeffj I’m willing to keep helping you troubleshoot this - but from experience here with other people in your boat, it would most likely be faster to rebuild the server clean and fresh with Ubuntu 16 because rebuilding would only take perhaps a few hours. Your problems here could take days to try to resolve, just from past experience. You might also read through this: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/8775/when-rebuilding-a-fog-server

@Wayne-Workman

as much as I hate giving up on fixing a problem it appears that rebuilding will be the easier route. thanks for the link for rebuilding fog server I was unaware of how to copy the images and and migrate them to a new server.

[Tom Elliott]

@jeffj I think this is overly much. Rebuilding is not necessary.

Please run: (if you haven’t rebuilt already):

rm -rf /etc/apache2 /etc/php*
sudo apt-get remove lib*php* apache2* php5* php7*

Then rerun the installer.

[jeffj]

@Tom-Elliott

okay after running those commands and re-running the installer it now fails when installing package php7.0-fpm

the fog error log has this to say:

@jeffj let me remote in and I had to enable two items to get things working. Once done I’ve added to the functions.sh file to make this more autonomous.

Fresh 16.04 should work fine, but an upgraded 16.04 should work too now (at least with minimal effort as needed/required.)

[jeffj]

@Tom-Elliott

Thanks again tom! marking as solved.

[Wayne Workman]

@Tom-Elliott Cool. I’m still going to advise against updating the OS though. It causes way too much noise in my day, and imagine people coming from 10 and 12 ? No telling what sort of problems that brings.
