PHP script execution mode issue

I have upgraded my php from 5.3.3 to 5.4.45.

After the install, the server still served up html, but merely downloaded php scripts to my client machine.

I think I have narrowed down the issue, but I need help from this community.

I have found that switching Virtualmin/Server-Configuration/Website-Options/PHP script execution mode from the Virtualmin default of "FCGId" to "Apache mod_php (run as Apache's user)" will allow the script to be run, even though it only serves up a blank page.

Please advice and specify any needed information and the commands to get it

How to tweak Mysql open_files_limit and table_open_cache to avoid dB crash?

Hi, I recently merged three dedicated server into one, i have 50 websites, and unexpectedly, mysql has difficulty to work well.

I followed the post here to increase the ulimit https://duntuk.com/how-raise-ulimit-open-files-and-mysql-openfileslimit I set 102400 (while the post said a higher value)

${PREFIX} returning whole domain name for database names

I am trying to setup my servers and I want to use the following as my template.

domain.co.uk as domain name with a MySQL database named domain (without the .co.ok). I also want to set it to utf8_general_ci but I can't fathom out how to do it.

Whenever I create a new site, the domain is created correctly but the database is created using the full domain name with a substitution of _ for . and is always created in latin_swedish.

SSL certificate showing for all virtual hosts.

I have a problem with the wrong SSL certificate appearing on virtual hosts. I setup Lets Encrypt several months ago for 3 domains and thought all was working Ok but I have just discovered that the renewal did not work and the domains have expired. I tried to renew but it failed due to too many attempts. I then found that they .well-known folders for Lets Encrypt all had over 4000 verification files in them.

Symlink from a virtual server readable to other virtual servers

Hello,

We'd like to create an "example" wordpress website with a theme and plugins (that we'd like to upgrade and change sometime). Then we'd like to symlink the theme directory "/home/user/public_html/wp-content/themes/my-theme" to all other "/home/other-user/public_html/wp-content/themes/my-theme" (where "my-theme" would be a symlink) and again with the plugins directory. I tried that but the symlinks are not followed (for security reason for what I read) and wordpress said me that the themes directory is missing. "ERROR: The theme directory "my-theme" does not exist."

How VirtualMin deals with sub-domains

Hi,

I'm frankly not understanding some things with VirtualMin.

Let's say that I own website.com and that I have 3 sub-domains like so :

x.website.com y.website.com z.website.com

And that my server ip address is 40.40.40.40.

The first thing that we should do is to create those domains via VirtualMin and we should finally have 3 directories /home/x/, /home/y/ and /home/z/ , isn't it ?

How can I relate them to VirtualMin ? By creating 3 "A" records that points to 40.40.40.40/x , 40.40.40.40/y, and 40.40.40.40/z in my domain provider?

Domain bind to VPS

Hello,

I am a newbie in Virtualmin and VPS. I've managed to install and config mysql, postgres, tomcat etc. and now I'm stuck in domain binding to VPS. I've setup in registrar 2 nameservers to my VPS ip ns1.mysite.ro and ns2.mysite.ro , I can't configure Virtualmin to get the domain. In Webmin - Bind, I don't have any error, but in Virtualmin I have NS record ns1.mysite.ro cannot be resolved to an IP address
