Ctlscript status shows as daemon not running

huzanforbes 2020-10-14 09:21:31 UTC #21

Could you please help me with the exact steps to write the script to restart Gonit?

Your support is always greatly appreciated.

Hi @huzanforbes,

This script should work

#!/bin/bash

date

sudo gonit
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
    echo "[ERROR] It seems there is a problem with Gonit. Restarting it"
    sudo pkill -f gonit
    sudo rm /var/run/gonit.sock
fi

sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh start

You will need to create a new crontab entry to run it.

Hi @huzanforbes,

You will need to create a script with the code I posted, modify the permissions to be able to execute it (chmod +x ./your_script) and add a new entry in the bitnami's cron

sudo crontab -e -u bitnami

You will learn more about Cron here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron

If you still need help, please note that we do not provide professional services, you will need to find someone in your community that helps you configure the cron the way you want.

Hi @jota

I have set this up. How do I confirm if the CRON is running. I don't see the ctlscript.sh status change.

Hi @huzanforbes,

I checked the crontab's configuration and do not see the job configured there.

You will need to run

sudo crontab -e -u bitnami

to start editing the crontab file for the bitnami user and add this line at the end to run your script hourly

0 * * * * /path/to/your/script

Hi @huzanforbes,

If you have the script ready, you need to add a new entry in the cron configuration to run that script

0 * * * * /path/to/your/script

huzanforbes 2020-10-28 10:33:13 UTC #30

Hi @jota

I've already made the change. How can I confirm my script is running?

jota 2020-10-28 16:30:17 UTC #31

You can redirect the output of the script to a file

0 * * * * /path/to/your/script >> /tmp/script_output.txt

and get its content later

cat /tmp/script_output.txt

Hi @jota

I increased my instance and mysql again went down. I have restarted it, however what could be the reason?

jota 2020-11-10 09:59:50 UTC #33

Hi @huzanforbes,

Did you check the MySQL's log to try to find the cause of the issue?

https://docs.bitnami.com/aws/infrastructure/lamp/troubleshooting/debug-errors-mysql/

Was there a disk space problem during that time?

huzanforbes 2020-11-10 10:30:52 UTC #34

Hi @jota
Below is my memory

Hi @jota

Below is the output

jota 2020-11-11 10:05:26 UTC #36

hi @huzanforbes,

The lines you shared do not include the cause of the error, I can only see that MySQL started a crash recovery but it doesn't say the reason. Could you please look for error messages in that mysqld.log file?

Thanks

Hi @jota

My instance went down again today.
Below is the log:

jota 2020-11-23 08:44:17 UTC #38

Hi @huzanforbes,

There are only 8MB of RAM available in the machine and most of the swap memory is used too. That means that if you receive more requests and a service starts to consume more memory, one of the other services might fail (in this case, MySQL was stopped). Please take a look at the request log to see if there is a bot/attacker accessing your site with malicious intentions.

@jota
I am unable to find the file as mentioned in Approach A.

Can you please guide me for my LAMP stack and not wordpress stack.

jota 2020-11-23 09:42:02 UTC #40

I shared the LAMP guide and both approach A and B work the same way. Run these commands to obtain the list of IPs with more connections

cd /opt/bitnami/apache2/logs/
tail -n 10000 access_log | awk '{print $1}'| sort| uniq -c| sort -nr| head -n 10
