Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated +) (tried to allocate + bytes) ?

Guys,

Please increase the memory size in php.ini file. If it does not work just put following directives in the httpd.conf file and restart apache :

====
RLimitMEM 447392422
RLimitCPU 240
====

You may have increased the RLimitMEM size since above has in bytes.

OR : You can set -1 at ini_set('memory_limit', '-1'); This has in the configuration file of the script.

Try :)

DATABASE ERROR: CONNECTION FAILED! + roundcube

Guys,

If you get this error just rectify the login details in the /usr/local/cpanel/base/roundcube/config/db.inc.php file since it's clear the DB connection error.

Example :

------
root@2red [/usr/local/cpanel/base/roundcube]# cat config/db.inc.php | grep roundcube
$rcmail_config['db_dsnw'] = 'mysql://roundcube:DB_PASSWORDlocalhost/roundcube';
// postgres example: 'pgsql://roundcube:pass@localhost/roundcubemail';
root@2red [/usr/local/cpanel/base/roundcube]#
------

PS: Name of the roundcube database : roundcube
DB username : roundcube
DB password : DB_PASSWORD //it has in /root/.my.cnf file

Also give grant privileges to that db.

That's it try :)

How to install roundcube in the cpanel server?

Guys,

I referred the following steps :

-----------
cd /usr/local/cpanel/base
rm -rf roundcube*
mysql -p -e 'drop database roundcube';
chattr -i /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/x/webmaillogin.html
chattr -i /usr/local/cpanel/base/webmaillogin.cgi
/scripts/upcp

cd /usr/local/cpanel/base
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/roundcubemail/files/roundcubemail/0.4.2/roundcubemail-0.4.2.tar.gz/download
tar -zxvf roundcube.tar.gz
rm -rf roundcube.tar.gz
mv -f roundcubemail-0.1-rc1 roundcube
cd roundcube
chmod -R 777 temp
chmod -R 777 logs
-----------
mysql -e "CREATE DATABASE roundcube;" -pDATABASEPASSWORD
mysql -e "use roundcube; source SQL/mysql.initial.sql;" -pDATABASEPASSWORD


Now lets sort out the configuration


cd config
mv db.inc.php.dist db.inc.php
mv main.inc.php.dist main.inc.php

Now open db.inc.php

nano db.inc.php

Find

$rcmail_config['db_dsnw'] = 'mysql://roundcube:pass@localhost/roundcubemail';


Replace with

$rcmail_config['db_dsnw'] = 'mysql://root:DATABASEPASSWORD@localhost/roundcube';



Now Open main.inc.php

nano main.inc.php

Find

$rcmail_config['default_host'] = '';


Replace with

$rcmail_config['default_host'] = 'localhost';
-----------
Now we have to configure cPanel to show roundcube in the theme. Please note this is for the X theme(default) only!! If you use another theme please skip the next part and see below.

cd /usr/local/cpanel/base/roundcube/skins/default/images/
cp --reply=yes roundcube_logo.png /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/x/images/roundcube_logo.png
cp --reply=yes roundcube_logo.png /usr/local/cpanel/base/webmail/x/images/roundcube_logo.png
cd /usr/local/cpanel/base
wget http://www.hostgeekz.com/files/hostgeekz/HGpatch-roundcube-0.1-rc1
patch -p0 < HGpatch-roundcube-0.1-rc1
----------

chattr +i /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/x/webmaillogin.html

How to migrate Plesk data manually with Plesk Migration Manager?

Manually migration?

[How to] How to migrate Plesk data manually with Plesk Migration Manager?
Article ID: 1152
Last Review: Nov,24 2009 Author: Bezborodova Anastasiya
Last updated by: Bezborodova Anastasiya APPLIES TO:
Plesk 8.x for Linux/Unix
Plesk 9.x for Linux/Unix
Resolution
To do this follow the steps below:

1. Upload migration agent and modules to the source server. For example for Parallels Plesk Panel, there are two folders: /usr/local/psa/PMM/agents/shared and /usr/local/psa/PMM/agents/PleskX. Use the command below to copy the Migration Manager:

destination ~# scp -r /usr/local/psa/PMM/agents/shared/* /usr/local/psa/PMM/agents/PleskX/* root@source:/temporary_migration_directory/

2. Login to source server and change to directory /temporary_migration_directory.
Run migration agent (PleskX.pl) with parameter --help to get all available options of the migration agent. Start dumping with options you need. For example:

source ~# cd /temporary_migration_directory
temporary_migration_directory ~# chmod 755 PleskX.pl
temporary_migration_directory ~# ./PleskX.pl --dump-all

3. This will create dump configuration file dump.xml and content dump archives in current directory /temporary_migration_directory.

4. On the destination server create directory /work_dir and copy file dump.xml from /temporary_migration_directory to it.:

source ~# scp /temporary_migration_directory/dump.xml root@destination:/work_dir/

5. On destination Parallels Plesk Panel 8 create subdirectory /work_dir/archives and copy other content dump files to this directory:

source ~# scp -r /temporary_migration_directory/* root@destinationPPP8:/work_dir/archives/

On destination Parallels Plesk Panel 9 dump.xml and all other content files should locate in the same directory. So copy all other files into /work_dir/:

source ~# scp -r /temporary_migration_directory/* root@destinationPPP9:/work_dir/

6. Deploy the data through Parallels Plesk Panel GUI.

Login to Parallels Plesk Panel (PPP) as administrator and change to the Migration Manager page. The page is Server -> Migration Manager in PPP version 8.x and Home -> Migration Manager in PPP version 9.x

Click button "Start a new migration" and choose "Data import" in PPP version 8.x or "Transfer data already processed by the migration agent and located on the local host." in PPP version 9.x.

In version 8.x pay attention for choosing correct Working directory for the data importing, it should the directory where you put the data to be restored (/work_dir).
In version 9.x put location of dump.xml file in the "Migration data file location" field. It should be /work_dir/dump.xml.

Additional information
In Parallels Plesk Panel version 9 restoration logs of manual migration are located on page Backup Manager at Home -> Backup Manager. So that is normal that you you see the Home page after specifying "Migration data file location" and click Next.

Meaning of special characters in bash scripting?

Guys, You can refer the following information for the bash scripting :

===========
1. Basic : Special charecter :
# --> to comment
; --> command separator.
;; --> terminator, used after "case".

like :

case "$variable" in
abc) echo "\$variable = abc" ;;
xyz) echo "\$variable = xyz" ;;
esac
----------
. --> used to create hidden file and denotes current directory.
" -->partial quoting.
' --> full quoting.
\ -->escape [backslash]
/ -->Filename path separator [forward slash]
` -->command substitution. The `command` construct makes available the output of command for assignment to a variable.
: -->null command [colon]
! --> reverse
* -->wild card [asterisk] and arithmetic multiplication.
$ -->Variable substitution (contents of a variable) and end-of-line.
${} --> Parameter substitution.
$*, $@ --> positional parameters.
$$ -->process ID variable.
{} --> Block of code.

{} --> placeholder for text. ex : ls . | xargs -i -t cp ./{} $1
{} \; --> pathname.
[ ] -->test, array element,range of characters.
> &> >& >> < <> --> redirection.

Example :

scriptname >filename redirects the output of scriptname to file filename. Overwrite filename if it already exists.

command &>filename redirects both the stdout and the stderr of command to filename.

command >&2 redirects stdout of command to stderr.

scriptname >>filename appends the output of scriptname to file filename. If filename does not already exist, it is created.

\<, \> --> word boundary , ex : bash$ grep '\' textfile
| --> pipe , echo ls -l | sh

>| --> force redirection

|| and & , && --> logical operator, & = Run job in background
- --> option, ls -al
^ --> beginning-of-line
Ctl-A -->Moves cursor to beginning of line of text (on the command-line).
Ctl-b -- >Backspace
Ctl-E -->Moves cursor to end of line of text (on the command-line).
Ctl-C -->Break. Terminate a foreground job.
Ctl-D -->Log out from a shell
Ctl-F -->Moves cursor forward one character position (on the command-line).
Ctl-B -->Moves cursor backward one character position (on the command-line).
Ctl-H -->Erases characters the cursor backs over while backspacing.
Ctl-I -->Horizontal t
Ctl-L --> clear the terminal screen
Ctl-P -->old command that has been executed.
Ctl-O -->Issues a newline (on the command-line).
Ctl-y --> PASTE

Extract the files using following command: For 32bit installation archive

cd /usr/local/src/

unzip 10201_database_linux32.zip

b) For 64bit installation archive

gunzip 10201_database_linux_x86_64.cpio.gz
cpio -idmv <10201_database_linux_x86_64.cpio

For RHEL 5, Centos 5: Modify database/install/oraparam.ini file and add "redhat-5" to "Certified Versions" section.
Example:

[Certified Versions]
Linux=redhat-3,SuSE-9,redhat-4,UnitedLinux-1.0,asianux-1,asianux-2,redhat-5

8. Login as root and issue the following command:

=======
xhost +
=======
Note : Either use only + or use mc ip where x windows has. + will search all attached mc where x windows has.

9. Login as the oracle user and add the following lines at the end of the .bash_profile file:

-----------------------
# Oracle Settings
TMP=/tmp; export TMP
TMPDIR=$TMP; export TMPDIR

ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle; export ORACLE_BASE
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.2.0/db_1; export ORACLE_HOME
ORACLE_SID=TSH1; export ORACLE_SID
ORACLE_TERM=xterm; export ORACLE_TERM
PATH=/usr/sbin:$PATH; export PATH
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/JRE:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib; export CLASSPATH

if [ $USER = "oracle" ]; then
if [ $SHELL = "/bin/ksh" ]; then
ulimit -p 16384
ulimit -n 65536
else
ulimit -u 16384 -n 65536
fi
fi
-------------

10. cd /home/oracle
. .bash_profile //activating current settings for oracle user

Installation :


11. Log into the oracle user. If you are using X emulation then set the DISPLAY environmental variable : like

........................
su - oracle
DISPLAY=:0.0; export DISPLAY

or : DISPLAY=localhost:0.0; export DISPLAY

You may have to execute as a oracle user :

export TMP=/oratmp
export TEMPDIR=/oratmp
..............


12. Start the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) by issuing the following command in the database directory:

Go to database directory :

cd /usr/local/src/database
./runInstaller


13. You may see x11 windows could not find error. In that case make it sure that one x11 machine has connected to your server.

If it goes fine, try to proceed further to install oracle via GUI.
==============================

A) Post-Instalation Tasks : Auto Startup and Shutdown of Database and Listener :-

Login as root and modify /etc/oratab file and change last character to Y for apropriate database.

ORCL:$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.2.0/db_1:Y

As root user create new file "oracle" (init script for startup and shutdown the database) in /etc/init.d/ directory with following content:

===============
#!/bin/bash
#
# oracle Init file for starting and stopping
# Oracle Database. Script is valid for 10g and 11g versions.
#
# chkconfig: 35 80 30
# description: Oracle Database startup script

# Source function library.

. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

ORACLE_OWNER="oracle"
ORACLE_HOME="$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.2.0/db_1"

case "$1" in
start)
echo -n $"Starting Oracle DB:"
su - $ORACLE_OWNER -c "$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart $ORACLE_HOME"
echo "OK"
;;
stop)
echo -n $"Stopping Oracle DB:"
su - $ORACLE_OWNER -c "$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut $ORACLE_HOME"
echo "OK"
;;
*)
echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop}"
esac
==============


Execute (as root) following commands (First script change the permissions, second script is configuring execution for specific runlevels):

chmod 750 /etc/init.d/oracle
chkconfig --add oracle --level 0356


2. Auto Startup and Shutdown of Enterprise Manager Database Control :-

As root user create new file "oraemctl" (init script for startup and shutdown EM DB Console) in /etc/init.d/ directory with following content:

================
#!/bin/bash
#
# oraemctl Starting and stopping Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control.
# Script is valid for 10g and 11g versions.
#
# chkconfig: 35 80 30
# description: Enterprise Manager DB Control startup script

# Source function library.

. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

ORACLE_OWNER="oracle"
ORACLE_HOME="$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.2.0/db_1"

case "$1" in
start)
echo -n $"Starting Oracle EM DB Console:"
su - $ORACLE_OWNER -c "$ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl start dbconsole"
echo "OK"
;;
stop)
echo -n $"Stopping Oracle EM DB Console:"
su - $ORACLE_OWNER -c "$ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl stop dbconsole"
echo "OK"
;;
*)
echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop}"
esac
===============


Execute (as root) following commands (First script change the permissions, second script is configuring execution for specific runlevels):

chmod 750 /etc/init.d/oraemctl
chkconfig --add oraemctl --level 0356

3. You may consider to use rlwrap for comfortable work with sqlplus and rman utility :-
RPM package for RedHat compatible (x86) distribution you can download here.
RPM package for RedHat compatible (x86_64) distribution you can download here.
su -
# rpm -ivh rlwrap*.rpm
# exit
echo "alias sqlplus='rlwrap sqlplus'" >> /home/oracle/.bash_profile
echo "alias adrci='rlwrap rman'" >> /home/oracle/.bash_profile
. /home/oracle/.bash_profile
=================

That's it try :)
