PHP Selector - Problem changing php version in newly created accounts (DirectAdmin)

[tester147]

Hi

I'm facing a problem whenever I create a new user account, where when trying to change the php version an error is returned.

Despite being able to resolve this issue on a specific account by deactivating and reactivating the user in the "CloudLinux CageFS User Manager" panel, I am being forced to do this every time a new account is created, which is not very efficient.

Has anyone had a similar situation and managed to resolve the issue?


DirectAdmin version - 1.642

CloudLinux version - 8.6

Hi,

I guess the defaul user creation mode is not placing them into CageFS. Please check the output of:

cagefsctl --display-user-mode

And if you see Disable All then change it to have all new users created with CageFS enabled:

cagefsctl --enable-all

Thanks for the reply, but unfortunately the problem persists.

For the new users I had created as a test and who were experiencing this issue, the cagefsctl --enable-all command fixed it, but keeping the issue for new users created after running this command.

In the latter case could I make a script to run cagefsctl --enable-all periodically ? Or is there anything else I can try to resolve this issue?

Even though it was already activated, below are the commands I run:

[root~]# cagefsctl --display-user-mode
Mode: Enable All
[root~]# cagefsctl --enable-all
Mode: Enable All
Updating users ...
Updating user ***** ...
[root ~]# cagefsctl --display-user-mode
Mode: Enable All

[bogdan.sh]

Well, the --enable-all is the workaround, let's better find the root cause to fix it in a proper way. DirectAdmin does display verbose information during user creation progress, any errors there? May you please copy-paste the output of creation progress page?

Also, please check if /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/custom/user_create_post/CL_user_create_post.sh exists.

And I am also interested in mode for a created user, what is the output of:

cagefsctl --user-status USERNAME

Hi! Thank you very much for the support so that I can solve this problem.

Attached is the output of the build progress page.


Does not exist - /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/custom/user_create_post/CL_user_create_post.sh

In the path /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/custom/ there are only README and user_create_post.sh


Comand:

[root ~]# cagefsctl --user-status ztest
Enabled


When I access "CloudLinux CageFS User Manage" it also appears as enabled, but the PHP Selector panel returns the same error present in the previous images.

I assume it could be due to the missing file you mentioned?

/usr/local/directadmin/scripts/custom/user_create_post/CL_user_create_post.sh

[bogdan.sh]

The cagefs status enabled is great to see, also no errors during the account creation progress.

I believe that one (or some more) scripts could be missing, I would recommend you reinstalling lvemanager package which should trigger post-install scriptlets to be run:

yum reinstall lvemanager

Let me know how it goes after that, or if yum shows any errors.

UPD: I am not a fan of reinstalls, but clearly we are missing some scripts. It is recommended only in this particular case
