Plesk stopped working. ERROR: Service_Agent_Exception Unable to execute php_handlers_control

rescarcega

New Pleskian
I'm not been able to start plesk although web and mail services are running.

I'm getting the error unable to execute php_handlers_control.

I've patched and updated plesk with command line and bootstrap repair and I'm getting this errors:

==> Checking for: mail_responder_restore... fail
/usr/lib64/plesk-9.0/mail_restore: line 820: 17063 Illegal instruction /usr/local/psa//admin/sbin/mailmng-service --restart-service

Errors occured in mail restore procedure
Some utilities have exited with errors:
/usr/lib64/plesk-9.0/mail_auth_dump
/usr/lib64/plesk-9.0/mail_responder_restore

I get Illegal Instruction When I run :
# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mailmng-service --restart-service
Illegal instruction

Also I switched from postfix to qmail and back using the command line with no luck.

/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/mailmng --features
runs without problems.....

Any ideas how to solve this problem?

Thanks
 
the problem seems to fall in the php_handlers_controls script. Every script that uses this script is failing with a proc_close() error and an Illegal instruction message.
Any ideas?
 
There are may be absent psaadm user in the swkey-data group or broken permissions on the /etc/sw/keys directory.
As possible solution try to set the correct permissions by following the commands below:

# /usr/sbin/usermod -a -G swkey-data psaadm
# chown -R root:swkey-data /etc/sw/keys/
# chmod u+s /etc/sw/keys/restart/apskeyhandler /etc/sw/keys/restart/plesk-key-handler
# chmod 2770 /etc/sw/keys
 
Hello Igor

The commands didn't correct the problem. It still down.

When I try to start plesk, this is the output:

[root@chi2 sw]# /etc/init.d/psa start

Anything else?

Thanks a lot for your help
 
Try to set up English local with

export LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"

and restart psa service.
 
It did correct the locale messages, but the problem still persists:

failed

this is the output (debug on) of php_handler:
