@trialotto Thank you! Debugging customer code isn't always possible when I am not getting paid for it, so this was a good solution for me. It's interesting how I have two nearly identical servers, and each had a different MPM out of the box, as I didn't even know that option existed. I...

I think you will have to. I don't see that as a security risk if your files are properly protected from viewing these credentials, and you are using encrypted authentication. Alternatively, you should be able to configure Ruby to just use the server's sendmail and not worry about a remote...

We've been fighting to find the solution to random and frequent 502 Bad Gateway errors on many of our websites on one of our servers. They would generate entries like this in the site's proxy_error_log: 2016/06/17 08:55:46 [error] 23668#0: *24939 upstream prematurely closed connection while...

Why not just use the remote SMTP server's credentials. You for sure want mail service "Off" locally. It's going to cause problems if you keep it on (e.g., your website scripts trying to mail locally and other clients on that same machine not being able to email that client).

Is anyone else thoroughly confused by the configuration of PHP-FPM, Nginx, FastCGI, etc.? This is what I have been able to determine and not determine... ** NGINX ** Error log: /var/log/nginx/error.log NGINX configuration file: /etc/nginx/nginx.conf Domain specific NGINX...

Glad you found it. The defaults on some of this stuff are so ridiculous for modern servers. I wish Plesk released some guidelines to help us manage base server settings like this on machines that are obviously being used for web hosting. Cheers, - Paul

Are you running the site using Fast-CGI or PHP-FPM for nginx, or is this straight Apache PHP?
