My webserver runs NGINX with PHP-FPM. After (I guess) an update, the service php5-fpm stopped working and refuses to restart/start - even after a reboot. As another webserver does the same updates and still works, updates may not be the cause.
> sudo service php5-fpm start
start: Job failed to start
> sudo service php5-fpm status
php5-fpm stop/waiting
> cat /proc/version
Linux version 3.13.0-48-generic (buildd@orlo) (gcc version 4.8.2 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1) ) #80-Ubuntu SMP Thu Mar 12 11:16:15 UTC 2015
The /var/log/syslog
says
kernel: [ 131.844584] init: Failed to spawn php5-fpm pre-start process: unable to execute: No such file or directory
And there is no relevant entry in /var/log/php5-fpm.log
or any other file in /var/log/
.
I'm afraid, I lack the background knowledge on pre-start processes. Therefore, I do not know where to start... Any ideas? Thanks!
Check the upstart job pre-start section content in
/etc/init/php5-fpm.conf
.
