The Passenger crash logs can fill up /tmp very quickly, which could affect Apache/MySQL services. Here are the steps that you can check if you notice Passenger-related crash logs on your server.
-
Update the Passenger package to the latest stable version.
On non-cPanel servers:
# yum update alt-mod-passenger
On WHM/cPanel servers with EasyApache 4:# yum update ea-apache24-mod-alt-passenger
- Check the package's integrity via:
rpm -V <rpm_name>
On WHM/cPanel servers we can check RPMs by running:/scripts/find_and_fix_rpm_issues
- Restart the Apache service if you've updated the Passenger.
- On WHM/cPanel server with CageFS, make sure that the Shell Fork Bomb protection is disabled. Worry not, CageFS has built-in protection, you don't have to keep both. Once disabled, update CageFS via:
cagefsctl --force-update
If the issue is not solved and Passenger apps proceed to crash
- Check the recent crash log file /tmp/passenger-crash-log.xxxxxx/backtrace.log - usually, it will point you in the right direction. For example:
# less /tmp/passenger-crash-log.1558095432.PUj710/backtrace.log
Install the missing RPM; if it's installed already, reinstall the package. In the example above, that would be:
*** ERROR ***: 'gdb' not found. Please install it (and if using Nginx ensure that PATH isn't filtered out, see also its "env" option).#yum install gdb
##If the package is already installed:
#yum reinstall gdb - Most of the time, we saw that Passenger crash cause either:
- A corrupted glibc package;
- The glibc package was installed from the 3rd-party repository instead of the CloudLinux repo.
In both cases, try to reinstall the package; that should help.
# rpm -V glibc
//if the package is corrupted, reinstall one:
# yum reinstall glibc
# rpm -qi glibc
//if the package has not CloudLinux Vendor, then upgrade/downgrade it from CL repo. For example, on CloudLinux 7 server we can run:
# yum downgrade glibc glibc-common glibc-headers glibc-devel nscd glibc-static --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=cloudlinux-x86_64-server-7
