Upgraded and now PSA service will no longer start

Smasher456

New Pleskian
I upgraded today from 11 to 12, however since the upgrade I am now unable to start the PSA Service, it comes up with the below error.

Starting psa... Starting sw-engine-fpm: Thu Jun 19 13:22:29 2014 (7885): Fatal Error Unable to allocate shared memory segment of 104857600 bytes: mmap: Cannot allocate memory (12)

I have checked resources and everything should be fine, I cant see a reason why it cant allocate the memory, as there is plenty free for it to take from.

I have tried a Bootstrapper repair for 12 however this has not found any issues other than its not able to stop the PSA Service (As its not running)


Suggestions are welcome, everything else is up and running its just the Parallels backend which im guessing is what the PSA Service is!

Cheers

Please post here output of "free -m" command?
Also try to use following workaround:

1. Run
# plesk conf php.ini

2. Disable cache with option
opcache.enabled=1

Thanks for your answer.

I have set opcache.enabled to 1, restarted the server but nothing.
 
Sorry, cache should be disabled with

opcache.enabled=0
 
Before I set it to 1 it was = 0 ...

In my case it's a virtual server from 1&1, maybe the problem is caused due to 1&1 ?

As others my Opcache.enabled = 0 already

Also mine is a 1&1 container as well

First of all try to reboot your VPS. If this doesn't help you, ask your provider for assistance. Physical server may have no enough RAM and you can't detect that fact by checking of /proc/user_beancounters inside container.
 
Have tried several reboots, and currently have a ticket in with my supplier so will wait and see what they come back with
 
I think I have this exact same error, upgraded to Plesk 12 from 11 and the server went berserk, all kinds of limits reached. Now I get permanent "502 Bad Gateway" when trying to access Plesk.

I'm sure I had something similar happen to me in the past and all i had to do was delete a file that was stuck open or something?

Any help would be appreciated! :)
 
I had to roll-back the container to a back-up before the error occurred in order to get it working again!
 
I put it down to not having enough resources available on my VPS, only way to combat this would be to upgrade my VPS package...
