Resolved ERR [util_exec] proc_close() failed ['/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/nginx-config'

Abdelkarim Mateos

New Pleskian
After some test with nginx I've several problems.

I tried plesk repair all -v for repair problems, uninstall nginx package, and reinstall and not work.

Code:

Have you tried creating the directory and then doing a repair all once more?
 
Agree with @MarkM

Please try to create this directory with

Code:
#mkdir /etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/ip_default

Also
Code:
#/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/nginxmng -d
#/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/nginxmng -e

Then try,

Code:
#plesk repair web
 
Well

Steps.

mkdir /etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/ip_default
Unique warning
Code:
plesk repair web -v

I think best way restore file sof site from backups.

IMHO
 
Have you add NGINX Custom Code via Plesk Panel for any of these domains?

If you have, Remove them,

Then
Code:
#/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/nginxmng -d
#/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/nginxmng -e

Code:
#plesk repair web

Try to rename the custom template for now and retry the commands,

Code:
#mv /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/templates/default/domain/nginxDomainVirtualHost.php /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/templates/default/domain/_nginxDomainVirtualHost.php
 
Not work.

Please post the content of /etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/ip_default/phonecomponente.com.conf

I'm not sure how did it regenerated. It is looking for this file /etc/nginx/conf.d/expires.global and nginx test fails.
 
Are you sure there is no Custom Detectives in phonecomponente.com in Plesk configuration?

also you can try to create the missing file (empty)

#touch /etc/nginx/conf.d/expires.global

have to tried to,

/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all
 
Oh.... Now work. After

Almost work

Code:
[
root@kvm492 ~]# touch /etc/nginx/conf.d/expires.global && chown root:nginx /etc/nginx/conf.d/expires.global
root@kvm492 ~]# /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/nginxmng -d
[root@kvm492 ~]# /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/nginxmng -e

But not work how reverse proxy and get 404 error on prestashop pages. Try a info.php y root site, and work.

Code:
$_SERVER['SERVER_SOFTWARE']    nginx/1.14.2

On logs I see

Code:
2019/05/20 17:27:37 [error] 22103#0: *3 "/var/www/vhosts/phonecomponente.com/httpdocs/es/index.html" is not found (2: No such file or directory), client: 2.137.128.33, server: phonecomponente.com, request: "GET /es/ HTTP/2.0", host: "phonecomponente.com"

Desesperate (And thank you very much for helping me in this nightmare. 20 years with cpanel, virtualmin and ISPConfig, and I never suffered so much for such a simple thing)
 
Is this resolved?

Its looking for index.html you can have change the config to look for index.php
