SoftException in Application.cpp:422: Mismatch between target UID (99) and UID (585) of file “/home/username/public_html/index.php”

Solution :

First check permission & ownership of files and folders.

Secondly.  Open httpd.conf

Go to the entry where 443 (SSL) details for the domain is given.

If its nobody nobody try changing to :

suPHP_UserGroup USERNAME USERNAME

How does ip/~username work in server

ARUN Posted in HTTPD, WHM BACKEND, WHM FRONTEND

How does ip/~username point to public_html instead of /home/username in server.

Solution : Its done by “UserDir”

httpd.conf might have an entry as below :

=================

root@server [~]# grep UserDir /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf
UserDir public_html
root@server [~]#
=========================
Thats what is specifying the document root.
By default "UserDir" is enabled.
To disable we can use :
UserDir disabled user4 user5 user6
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_userdir.html

While trying to restart FTP via WHm we are getting the error :

=========

pure-authd (/usr/sbin/pure-authd -s /var/run/ftpd.sock -r /usr/sbin/pureauth) running as root with PID

=========

Login to WHM >> Manage Service SSL Certificates >>

Reset the FTP ssl certificate.

Try restarting FTP.. it should work

make sure to run [/scripts/upcp –force] after that

If that dont work then go ahead and do :

cd /var/lib/rpm/

[  rm -f __db.*    ]

[   rpm -vv –rebuilddb    ]

How to change exim mail interface IP :

Login to WHM >> Exim Configuration Editor >> and check the below.

Automatically send outgoing mail from the account’s IP address instead of the main IP address. Warning: If you turn this setting on you should make sure reverse DNS entries match the ones in /etc/mail_reverse_dns.

Login to SSh

root@server [~]#

 

vi /etc/mailips

domain.com:IP address

# To send the email out from the particular IP for domain.com.
