Resolved httpdmng liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9: cannot open shared object file

ESTUGO

Basic Pleskian
Hi there,
Hi IgorG,

we have a big problem with some plesk server (CentOS7.3), which we have upgrade from plesk 12.5 to plesk 17:


[root@74 ~]# /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/httpdmng --help
/usr/bin/sw-engine: error while loading shared libraries: liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[root@74 ~]# rpm -qi log4cplus | grep Vendor
Vendor : Fedora Project


Some server does not have this problem:

[root@ ~]# rpm -qi log4cplus | grep Vendor"
70: Vendor : Plesk
71: Vendor : Plesk
72: Vendor : Fedora Project
73: Vendor : Fedora Project
74: Vendor : Fedora Project

[root@ ~]# "yum list installed | grep log4cplus"
70: log4cplus.x86_64 1.1.2-centos7.16071418 @PLESK_17_0_17-dist
71: log4cplus.x86_64 1.1.2-centos7.16071418 @PLESK_17_0_17-dist
72: log4cplus.x86_64 1.1.3-0.4.rc3.el7 @epel
73: log4cplus.x86_64 1.1.3-0.4.rc3.el7 @epel
74: log4cplus.x86_64 1.1.3-0.4.rc3.el7 @epel


What can i do to fix this issue? We have uninstalled epel, before we upgraded plesk 12.5 to plesk 17.
 
On my test Plesk Onyx server on CentOS 7.2 I see following:

# rpm -qf /usr/lib64/liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9
log4cplus-1.1.2-centos7.16071418.x86_64

# rpm -qi log4cplus | grep Vendor
Vendor : Plesk

You need to install package log4cplus-1.1.2-cent..>
 
Hi IgorG,

thank you, but how can i install this package?

[~]# wget http://autoinstall.plesk.com/PSA_17...e/log4cplus-1.1.2-centos7.16071418.x86_64.rpm

[ ~]# rpm -i http://autoinstall.plesk.com/PSA_17...e/log4cplus-1.1.2-centos7.16071418.x86_64.rpm
package log4cplus-1.1.3-0.4.rc3.el7.x86_64 (which is newer than log4cplus-1.1.2-centos7.16071418.x86_64) is already installed
file /usr/lib64/liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9 from install of log4cplus-1.1.2-centos7.16071418.x86_64 conflicts with file from package log4cplus-1.1.3-0.4.rc3.el7.x86_64

[~]# rpm -e log4cplus-1.1.3-0.4.rc3.el7.x86_64
error: Failed dependencies:
liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9()(64bit) is needed by (installed) plesk-lmlib-0.2.3-centos7.825.16102518.x86_64
 
As you can see, missing liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9 is just symlink to real liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9.0.0 file:

# ll /usr/lib64/liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Jan 26 04:33 /usr/lib64/liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9 -> liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9.0.0

So, you can try to create the same symlink to appropriate file from your log4cplus-1.1.3-0.4.rc3.el7.x86_64 package.
But consequences are unpredictable. I think that problems with the upgrade will occur.
Another way is installation original package with force. Or remove log4cplus-1.1.3-0.4.rc3.el7.x86_64 with --nodeps and --justdb options and then install original log4cplus-1.1.2-centos7.16071418.x86_64
You can try it on your own risk.
 
Hi IgorG,

thank you, but it does not work :(

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Jan 26 16:00 /usr/lib64/liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9 -> liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9.0.1
[root@www74 ~]# /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/httpdmng --help
/usr/bin/sw-engine: error while loading shared libraries: liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9: cannot open shared object file: Error 40

Removing with --nodeps and --justdb 's options are too risky.

I think it is a problem with epel-release and MU #12/13:
https://talk.plesk.com/threads/plesk-is-not-compatible-with-libopendkim-update.340991/
 
Same Probleme IN MU 15

Starting sw_engine service... failed

We have PLESK Onyx and we cannot start it

/usr/bin/sw-engine: error while loading shared libraries: liblog4cplus-1.1.so.9: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Thanks
 
OS: CentOS Linux release 7.3.1611 (Core)

and rebooted i got 502 Bad Gateway / nginx error when trying to login to plesk Onyx https://host02.xxx.xxx:8443 (i have the latest version of plesk). Web sites are working ok. Just the plesk login page doesn't work.

Trying to restart plesk, i got the following:

[root@host02 bin]# /etc/init.d/psa restart

I also have fail2ban, modsecurity and Google Autheticator enabled if that helps.

Any help would be appreciated.
