[PPP-17475] PHP-FPM Service not coming up.

fliegerhermi

Regular Pleskian
I installed Plesk 12 on a fresh debian Jessie minimal installation (openvz-container).

The PHP-FPM Services don't come up after reboot, but I can manually start them through the panel services page. They are also started when a php-handler is changed in the subscription for some reason.

Processes after reboot:
root 337 0.1 0.3 372232 33184 ? Ss 17:40 0:00 sw-engine-fpm: master process (/etc/sw-engine/sw-engine-fpm.conf)
root 512 0.1 0.2 361152 18632 ? Ss 17:40 0:00 php-fpm: master process (/etc/php5/fpm/php-fpm.conf)
www-data 538 0.0 0.0 361152 6248 ? S 17:40 0:00 php-fpm: pool www
www-data 539 0.0 0.0 361152 6248 ? S 17:40 0:00 php-fpm: pool www
root 1117 0.0 0.0 11068 856 pts/0 S+ 17:41 0:00 grep fpm

After manual service start:
root 335 0.0 0.3 372220 33184 ? Ss 17:30 0:00 sw-engine-fpm: master process (/etc/sw-engine/sw-engine-fpm.conf)

root 1781 0.0 0.2 395460 24524 ? Ss 17:33 0:00 php-fpm: master process (/opt/plesk/php/5.5/etc/php-fpm.conf)
root 2545 0.0 0.0 11068 860 pts/0 S+ 17:39 0:00 grep fpm

Which logfile would be relevant? I couldn't find any errormessage in syslog.
I think there must be a problem with brining up the plesk fpm packages.
Thanks for any help


The watchdog service is also not comming up. Is there a problem with debian jessies replacement of sysvinit?

12.5.30 Update #1

As far as I know Plesk 12.0 is not supporting Debian 8.
There is not much that I could have done wrong. The debian-installer is handling everything for you. So if services don't come up on a fresh installation it is very likely, that the installation is not adjusted to the new system, right?
 
Do you have at least one domain which uses php-fpm? Plesk enables autostart of php-fpm service only in case at least one php-fpm pool.
 
Yes I do.
After reboot php-fpm is down. Than I can either start it manually via console or plesk services page or switch to fast cgi and then back to fpm, which also starts it.

I got it fixed by manually adding it to the bootsequence of jessie, but I am not a big fan of manual manipulations, because it may result in problems with further plesk updates some day.
