After upgrade to Plesk 12.0.18

SuperElf

New Pleskian
Hello,

I recently updated from 11.5 to 12. After the update, my PHP session files are no longer being deleted.

I followed the steps in article 119500 http://kb.odin.com/en/119500. I was able to run the steps manually but cron does not seem to able to run them automatically.

The PHP sessions folder permissions seem correct:
drwx-wx-wt 2 root root 548864 Sep 21 12:12 session

The "/etc/php.ini" file seems reasonable and the session file path seems correct:
session.save_path = "/var/lib/php/session"

But the session files never get deleted automatically. The session folder fills up quickly and I have been deleting session files manually while trying to resolve the problem.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. How can I verify that the default Plesk cron jobs are set up and running properly?

Thanks!
 
I was able to fix this issue but I was not able to find the root cause.
I tried various fixes including restarting the cron service but the only thing that worked was rebooting the server.
