The problem is I’m not sure there is a Problem. I will explain as best I can.
I have Virtualmin GPL on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS setup using script.
I have 4 servers, one of these is being host to about 20 subservers. All my virtual servers are using Joomla.
The first problem that has not been fully resolved is detailed here https://www.virtualmin.com/node/14985 That dealt with a few issues, but the remaining one is that each joomla setup now requires a live_site variable in the config to work properly with partial sef.
My biggest issue now is that I cannot install extensions, on any sites that use fcgid. Actually, I can install some extensions but not others. I havent narrowed down what does/dosn’t install yet and have been trying to for days. I know that large extensions such as Kunena and Virtuemart install fine, small extensions such as YooIEcheck work ok as well. The error i get on a failed install is xml file not found/invalid/error (it varies) Occasionally I also get file not found errors, details files it is attempting to install.
From what I can tell something seems to be stopping the install process half way through. After checking the error logs i found that http post size was too low, so increased that (Then was able to install large extensions)
Does it work when using CGI mode rather than FCGID? CGI still offers the same security benefit as FCGID… I’m curious if it’s specific to FCGID, or whether it only works under mod_php.
I’ve seen a lot of strange issues with newer PHP versions and Joomla running outside of mod_php. One thing that sometimes helps is setting “cgi.fix_pathinfo=0” in that Virtual Server’s php.ini file ($HOME/etc/php.ini).
Is there any noticeable difference between the resource consumption of the two?
I have read all over this forum that FCGID does behave with Joomla, but it does require a lot of fine tuning. Can some of these ‘fine tuning options’ be suggested please, as I will have at least one site that does require speed.
