Resolved php7.2 php-fpm.sock file error

Franco

Regular Pleskian
Hello,
after the announced support for php7.2 I went ahead and converted a few websites to use 7.2 (from 7.1). My configuration is nginx/php-fpm and I am running the latest 17.5.x under CentOs 7.4.

Things went fine for a few websites (except for those which do not support yet that version for theme or plugin issues), but on a couple of those I had what I think might just be a configuration issue. After converting to 7.2 the website goes inaccessible and the following message appears in /var/log/messages:

*960742 connect() to unix:///var/www/vhosts/system/domain/php-fpm.sock failed (2: No such file or directory) while connecting to upstream

In fact the php-fpm.sock file is not there. It is there on the working websites and also for those running 7.1.
And /var/vhosts/system/domain/conf/vhost_nginx.conf looks ok to me, at least it still requires the php-fpm.sock file to be in the same location, but the file is not.

Why would that config fail? Can I just copy the file to the target folder?

Thank you in advance for any help.

Regards
Franco
 
Hi,
the result of the status command is given below, but first I would like to report that sometimes later (less than 1 hour) I got a system crash and had to reboot from the management console (Plesk was not available and SSH was not available). It looks like a hardward problem, but not sure yet.

However, after reboot things were unstable and got frequent websites not responding and mysql not being available (with Zend messages about error 2002), first time I see those.

In particular:

ERROR: Zend_Db_Adapter_Exception: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused
Additionally, an exception has occurred while trying to report this error: Zend_Exception
No entry is registered for key 'translate' (Abstract.php:144)



In /var/log/messages I saw that all those websites (and only those) that were configured with php 7.2 had one or two tables corrupted, such as:

140543869278976 [ERROR] mysqld: Table './goupars@002ddb_a/pwY8bR88_itsec_lockouts' is marked as crashed and should be repaired

I then run:
plesk repair all -n
which did not find much, but after another reboot I could connect to Plesk.
I subsequently tried to find and repair all those crashed tables.
My system remains heavily unstable and now, again, no access to Plesk Panel
Is there a correlation between all these facts? Is plesk php7.2 compatible with MariaDB?

Here's the status anyway:

..and then:

Another thing I noticed is the free swap space to 0, but perhaps that's normal?

Here’s is my disk status, looks normal to me:
