VestaCP 18.10.1 Compatibility ETA & Bad gateway nginx after updating.

[p4r4norm4l]

Hello,
Just wondering when VestaCP will be compatible with Ubuntu 18.10.1. Right now i am getting an Bad Gateway nginx error when trying to login to my admin panel after i updated from 16.04.

I updated because Wordpress now supports PHP 7.3 and i figured that might as well do the whole thing. The websites are running fine it's just the admin panel that is not running.

Maybe i configured something wrong but my linux skills are limited and google was no help.

Thanks in advance.

Vesta admin area actually installs its own version of PHP, which it keeps in /usr/local/vesta/php/bin

You might find some information in the server logs at /usr/local/vesta/log (obviously you can't see the logs through the admin interface)

Maybe running these commands might dislodge something

sudo v-update-sys-vesta 'vesta'
sudo v-update-sys-vesta 'vesta-nginx'
sudo v-update-sys-vesta 'vesta-php'
sudo v-update-sys-vesta 'vesta-ioncube'
sudo v-update-sys-vesta 'vesta-softaculous'

Hey thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately these commands do not work.
v-update-sys-vesta: command not found.

Am i doing it wrong? I've Ran v-update-sys-vesta-all and then ran apt-cache show vesta this is the result

Package: vesta
Source: vesta
Version: 0.9.8-23

this is the result of my nginx-error.log

Hmm, is the vesta service actually running?
What happens when you do
systemctl status vesta.service
And if its stopped, try
systemctl restart vesta.service
(you might need to sudo if you're admin user)
Or, you could just reboot the server if you prefer.

Hey,
This is the result of what i get trying to start Vesta.
Job for vesta.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status vesta.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

So i ran the command system status vesta.service and this is the result.

Code: Select all

So i did further digging and i tried this command (apt policy *curl* | grep -v "(none)" | grep -A1 -B1 Installed )to see what versions of curl i had. And this was the result. Maybe it can be of some help to you

My suspicions are with the LIBCURL 3 failure. Lets try to install it.
sudo apt install libcurl3

Now try to start vesta again with
sudo systemctl restart vesta.service

For the record, I've got an 18.04 server here which doesn't have libcurl3 installed, and vesta is running fine. But if that's what it says it wants, lets feed it. PS. Also try a search on the forum for libcurl3. There are a few people with this problem it appears.

Update. Here's what I have related to curl on a working 18.04 install

Code: Select all

apt policy *curl* | grep -v "(none)" | grep -A1 -B1 Installed

Hey, This is the response from the server.

Package libcurl3 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
libcurl4

E: Package 'libcurl3' has no installation candidate

It's as if Vesta is not compatible with libcurl4 maybe we can tell vesta it can be by changing the code in a file or something?

[plutocrat]

Total guess here but how about installing libcurl3-gnutls which is on my working 18.04 server. And check out some of the other discussions, by searching for libcurl3 in the searchbox at the top of the page ....

[p4r4norm4l]

Hey, Just wanted to thank you for the help.

This is what i get :

Code: Select all

libcurl3-gnutls is already the newest version (7.61.0-1ubuntu2.3).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.

[p4r4norm4l]

I think the problem is that Libcurl3 and libcurl4 cannot co-exist on the same server. :( Hopefully Vesta updates their cpanel soon to support libcurl4.
