Someone is currently logged into the APC Management Web Server Please try again

If you get a page saying ‘Someone is currently logged into the APC Management Web Server. Please try again later.’ when trying to connect to a managed APC PDU via the web interface there are a couple of likely causes.

1. Someone is connected via the serial port – this will always override any IP connection.
2. The web interface is ‘stuck’.

If it’s number 1 then you’ll need to find the machine physically connected and disconnect the terminal session, but the fix for number 2 is quite simple.
Just telnet to the device, then log off. This will reset the APC Management Web Server and you’ll be able to log in.

telnet 100.100.10.10

Connecting to 100.100.10.10:23...

HOW TO FIX CSF START ERROR “ERROR: FASTTART: (PACKET FILTER IPV4)”

If you get the below error while restarting/starting csf, then you just need to apply below fix.

csf: FASTSTART loading Packet Filter (IPv4)
Error: FASTTART: (Packet Filter IPv4) [] [iptables-restore: line 14 failed]. Try restarting csf with FASTSTART disabled, at line 4285

Edit csf config file located at /etc/csf/csf.conf and disable FASTSTART by editing FASTSTART = “1” to
FASTSTART = “0”.

Once the change is made restart csf by running csf -r, csf should be running fine now.

“Domain already exists” error while adding addon domain in cpanel.

If you are trying to add-on a domain in cPanel and get “Domain already exists” messages, you will have to manually remove the DNS entries before you can add the domain.


If you are unsure who the user is – run this via SSH to get the owner of the domain:

First we need to check if the domain is owned by any particular user.

server# /scripts/whoowns domain.com

or

server# grep domain.com /etc/userdomains
domain.com:username

Now we need to check if the zone file for the domain exists.

server # ls -ld /var/named/domain.com.com.db

-rw------- 1 named named 1055 Mar  4 02:57 /var/named/domain.com.com.db

There exists a zone file for the domain and can remove the zone by executing the below command:

server #/scripts/killdns domain.com

These are the locations to search for any reference to domain.com
/var/cpanel/userdata/<username>/main
/etc/named.conf
/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf
/var/named/domain.com.db
/etc/userdomains
/etc/localdomains
/var/cpanel/users/<username>

Edit any files that are found and remove the entire line that contains the domain name. Once you’ve done this, there shouldn’t be any entry for domain.com in the cPanel configuration file.

Rebuild the User domain database:

server #/scripts/updateuserdomains

Rebuild the Apache configuration

server #/scripts/rebuildhttpdconf

If the server is running on apache

server #  service httpd restart

server # service cpanel restart

You should now be able to add the domain in the ‘add-on domains’ section in cPanel.

How to check last reboot date and time in linux

we can check the last reboot date and time in linux servers by using the following commands

server # last reboot
reboot   system boot  2.6.18-448.16.1. Thu Jan  8 14:36         (53+11:08)

Temporary URL not working

Inorder to have the temporary URL working, you may need to enable it in WHM first.

Enable “mod_userdir” under WHM > SecurityCenter

If it doesn’t work, then add the below entry in apache configuration file

vi /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf

UserDir enabled username (cpanel user name)

Error: Log is currently being processed in the background. Cannot update.

When you manually update awstat for any domain via cpanel, If you get the following error

_________________________________________________________

Error: Log is currently being processed in the background. Cannot update.

_________________________________________________________

To fix this issue,

When you check the domlogs, you could see that every domain.com had a backup log file named domain.com.bkup

/usr/local/apache/domlogs/domain.com.bkup

You just rename the domain.com.bkup as domain.com.bkup.1 or whatever you wish.

And update awstat.

Fixed.. :)
