/tmp contents deleted

[ramender]

I deleted by mistake /tmp contents because of which not able to start lshttpd service. What can be done to put lshttpd back into /tmp folder of CentOs.

just restart LSWS if /tmp directory exists, everything will be recreated.
If /tmp does not exist, you need to create it.

I restarted the LSWS but it gives error.

• ERROR] Failed to start litespeed!
• litespeed: no process killed
• read(): No such file or directory
• read(): Invalid argument
• [ERROR] Failed to start litespeed!

Tried restarting the Server but that also didnt solve the problem.

is litespeed process still running ?
#ps -ef|grep litespeed
if still running, you can kill them directly
#killall litespeed
until no longer see it by ps

then
#/usr/local/lsws/bin/lswsctrl start

Please check error log, make sure /tmp is not full.

 

[ramender]

checked the logs it says..
LSWS does not restart properly, check port 7080
check port 7080 after kill all litespeed processes

 

[mistwang]

Please try "killall -9 litespeed", then try start LSWS.

 

[ramender]

# killall -9 litespeed
litespeed: no process killed

Still not able to start the LSWS. I have freed some more diskspace now.

Output of #ps -ef|grep litespeed

root 300 5816 0 11:44 pts/2 00:00:00 grep litespeed

Is there anyway port 7080 is a issue.

 

[mistwang]

netstat -anp | grep 7080

Maybe you should just reinstall LSWS.

How can I backup the config of LSWS before reinstallation..I need the old settings

the master config file: /usr/local/lsws/conf/httpd_config.xml
