Bitnami Magento 2.4.1-6 stacks - change directory and settings

Ibone 2021-02-05 10:31:55 UTC #21

After that did you try to run this command?

sudo /opt/bitnami/gonit/bin/gonit --verbose start

and check the status again

sudo /opt/bitnami/gonit/bin/gonit --verbose status

I will try to reproduce the issue with all information.

The question is still the same: why after I change everything manually, start all services and do a server restart, not all services start and again I have to do it manually. I do not know.

Hi @eduard,

I going to create an internal task to investigate this. We will update the thread when we have more information.
Meanwhile, you can use the following command to start, restart, stop and see the status of the services

sudo /opt/bitnami/gonit/bin/gonit --verbose [status|stop|start|restart]

Hi,
thanks but if i tried to restart the server using sudo /opt/bitnami/gonit/bin/gonit --verbose restart
the result is the same.

I stopped the server on Friday and now that I started it, everything was old and nothing changed.
Pozri:

Then I tried sudo /opt/bitnami/gonit/bin/gonit --verbose restart, all services started.

Here is the picture:

I would also like to remind you that if I manually start all services sudo /opt/bitnami/gonit/bin/goni --verbose start, then the website is also available, admin. The problem is only if the server restarts.

I'll wait for a response from your developer.

Regards

Hi @eduard, thanks for all the details you provided in this thread.

We recently updated the Bitnami Magento cloud images it seems like this particular use case was not documented properly.

What is happening is that when you run "sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh start", the underlying service manager (Provisioner) does not rely on Gonit and will start Varnish anyways. However, since it's running at port 80, it conflicts with Apache's port 80 which you just configured and causing this failure.

We're aware of the service manager usability issues, and we're currently evaluating different ways to solve this issue for good. Unfortunately we're not able to give an ETA for when a definitive fix will be provided, and we expect that some time will pass before that happen.

To workaround this issue for now, I would recommend one of the following options:

Disable Varnish completely, by overriding the Varnish startup script:

$ sudo mv /opt/bitnami/scripts/varnish/start.sh /opt/bitnami/scripts/varnish/start.sh.disabled
$ sudo ln -s /bin/true /opt/bitnami/scripts/varnish/start.sh

If you wanted to keep Varnish running (but in a different port), you would only need to change this value:

$ echo 'export VARNISH_PORT_NUMBER=81' | sudo tee -a /opt/bitnami/scripts/varnish-env.sh

Hope it works!

Note: We'll also work on updating our documentation so issues like these don't happen anymore.

Hi,

thanks for the help, now it works properly even after a complete reboot from console.

Good job, this solution is satisfactory so far and let me know when you will make a final repair.

It is important for me at the moment that I no longer have to start the services manually after a complete reboot.

Thanks again for your help, you can close ticket

Regards

Eduard

Awesome, I'm glad it worked for you!

Closing this issue now. I'll add a note in our internal task for the service manager usability issues to update this topic, once there is a definitive solution.

FYI we've just updated our docs to include the required changes to properly disable Varnish in Magento stack: https://docs.bitnami.com/aws/apps/magento/administration/configure-use-varnish/
