Common Issues – Easyapache failing

Figured my “Common Issues” posts this week would be a little more specific and simple then the last few. This is an issue i’ve been noticing a new issue off and on with servers recently where easyapache will not work and fails with the following error:

root@server [~]# /scripts/easyapache
Acme::Spork version v0.0.8 required--this is only version v0.0.7  at /var/cpanel/perl/easy/Cpanel/Easy/Utils/BackGround.pm line 14.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /var/cpanel/perl/easy/Cpanel/Easy/Utils/BackGround.pm line 14.
Compilation failed in require at (eval 18) line 3.
 ...propagated at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/base.pm line 85.
 at (eval 16) line 3
 at /var/cpanel/perl/easy/Cpanel/Easy.pm line 15
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /var/cpanel/perl/easy/Cpanel/Easy.pm line 15.
Compilation failed in require at (eval 1) line 3.
 ...propagated at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/base.pm line 85.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /var/cpanel/perl/easy/Cpanel/Easy/Apache.pm line 8.
Compilation failed in require at /scripts/easyapache line 23.

In order to repair this, all you must do is install the Acme::Spork version v.0.0.8 that it requests. To do that just use the following commands:

root@server [~]# perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan> install Acme::Spork

(Note: “cpan>” is a shell prompt, not part of the command)

This solves the issue with easyapache and allows you in. Please let me know if you have any issues with this solution, please post in the comments so all can benefit from any questions.

This did not work as per below:

cpan> install Acme::Spork
CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.16)
Going to read /home/.cpan/Metadata
Database was generated on Mon, 13 Aug 2007 07:38:59 GMT
Acme::Spork is up to date (0.0.7).

We had to manually build Acme::Spork to fix.

Cheers,

Hey Ben!

Thanks for the comment. That’s odd it didn’t work for you. I’ve used this same method many times recently to resolve the same issue. Maybe your situation was a bit more unique. Sorry my post didn’t help!

Duplicate FTP Hosts in Show IP Usage

Ran into an issue today where a domain was showing in the cPanel “Show IP Address Usage” twice in the “FTP Usage” column.

Simple IPTables OpenVZ Setup

about 1 year ago - 1 comment

So after looking and failing to find a good article on how to describe the simple process to set up IPTables on an OpenVZ server, I figured I would write one here. The process is incredibly simple and can be broken down into 3 steps: Empty out the contents of /etc/sysconfig/iptables cat “” > /etc/sysconfig/iptables

CPUwatch

about 2 years ago - 3 comments

Hello everyone! This is just a quick post because it came to my attention today that many do not know about the cpuwatch command included within cPanel to assist with running commands that cause intense server load. The use is as follows: /usr/local/cpanel/bin/cpuwatch LOADAVG COMMAND As an example would be: /usr/local/cpanel/bin/cpuwatch 8 cp -r /home/username/public_html/*

Hello everyone! This week in “Common Issues”, we will be discussing the ever common “ran out of connections” issues many clients with very big websites see daily.

So the recent problems with a server at my job and a few issues I’ve seen of recent gave me an idea for a new Common Issues post. This one is based on the common issue of the main drive being full and various mounting issues. As always, this email comes with all the disclaimers
