Wordpress Autoinstall fail to install wordpress

How did you install Centmin Mod? Exact commands?

Which version of Centmin Mod did you install?

What version of PHP did you use/upgrade to?

That maybe a separate issue i.e. network connectivity issues with your VPS itself. If so initial install log for troubleshooting first as outlined at https://community.centminmod.com/threads/how-to-troubleshoot-centmin-mod-initial-install-issues.102/

Maybe related to additional security configured in Centmin Mod centmin.sh menu option 22 Wordpress autoinstaller. See https://community.centminmod.com/threads/wordpress-403-permission-denied-errors.11215/

If the centmin.sh menuoption 22 Wordpress autoinstaller specific issue, see below

Troubleshooting Centmin Mod Menu Option 22 Wordpress Install Run

To troubleshoot centmin.sh menu option 22 wordpress installation, you need to check the centmin.sh menu option 22 log located in /root/centminlogs at /root/centminlogs/centminmod_*_wordpress_addvhost.log based log where * is the centminmod version and date timestamp. Edit and mask any actual ftp username/password or wordpress usernames and logins before posting the log contents to Pastebin.com or Gists to share a sanitised version of the contents of the log.

Example list /root/centminlogs files in date ascending order and grep for wordpress_addvhost.log

Code (Text):

ls -lahrt /root/centminlogs | grep wordpress_addvhost.log

example output returns log at /root/centminlogs/centminmod_1.2.3-eva2000.09.001_111016-112321_wordpress_addvhost.log

Code (Text):

ls -lahrt /root/centminlogs | grep wordpress_addvhost.log
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 2.2M Oct 11 01:40 /root/centminlogs/centminmod_1.2.3-eva2000.09.001_111016-112321_wordpress_addvhost.log

in SSH use cat to ouput contents of /root/centminlogs/centminmod_1.2.3-eva2000.09.001_111016-112321_wordpress_addvhost.log. Clear your SSH client window/buffer so only output is the contents of the file

Code (Text):

cat /root/centminlogs/centminmod_1.2.3-eva2000.09.001_111016-112321_wordpress_addvhost.log

Then copy and paste into Pastebin.com or Gists entry. If your SSH window scroll buffer isn't that large to get the whole contents of the install log, you can download file manually and copy and paste contents. But makes sure it's sanitised version of the contents without revealing sensitive info. For example you can replace domain name of the wordpress site with generic dummy entry = domain.com if you want and mask site/server IP revealed in the log with generic dummy entry = 111.222.333.444.

 

That screenshot in first post looks like a browser mixed HTTP/non-HTTPS content warning - could be your didn't enable Letsencrypt SSL certifications for web browser trusted SSL certificates on HTTPS sites https://centminmod.com/letsencrypt-freessl.html? Or if you did enable, Letsencrypt domain validation failed for whatever reason to issue browser trusted Letsencrypt SSL certificate and fell back to untrusted self-signed SSL certificate

First try running your intended SSL certificate domain through the letsdebug.net online testing tool to check for potential errors with HTTP-01 validation. If you created Centmin Mod 123.09beta01 or higher Nginx site with Letsencrypt via centmin.sh menu option 2, 22 or nv command line, you now also have an automatic letsdebug.net API check log saved at /root/centminlogs/letsdebug-yourdomain.com-${DT}.log where yourdomain.com is domain specified during nginx vhost creation and DT is date/timestamp. Inspecting the /root/centminlogs/letsdebug-yourdomain.com-${DT}.log log will also give you clues as to why letsencrypt SSL certificate issuance failed.

How was the initial letsencrypt ssl certificate obtained ? Which method ?

• Was the domain nginx vhost alreadying created prior or new domain nginx vhost site setup for first time ?
• Via centmin.sh menu option 2, 22, /usr/bin/nv ?
• If you ran centmin.sh menu option 2 or 22, which letsencrypt option did you select from
  Code (Text):

  -------------------------------------------------------------
  Setup full Nginx vhost + Wordpress + WP Plugins
  -------------------------------------------------------------
  
  Enter vhost domain name you want to add (without www. prefix): acme3.domain1.com
  
  Create a self-signed SSL certificate Nginx vhost? [y/n]: n
  Get Letsencrypt SSL certificate Nginx vhost? [y/n]: y
  
  You have 4 options:
  1. issue staging test cert with HTTP + HTTPS
  2. issue staging test cert with HTTPS default
  3. issue live cert with HTTP + HTTPS
  4. issue live cert with HTTPS default
  Enter option number 1-4: 1
  

• Via addons/acmetool.sh ? which specific command ? examples
  Code (Text):

  ./acmetool.sh issue acme.domain.com
  

  Code (Text):

  ./acmetool.sh issue acme.domain.com live
  

  Code (Text):

  ./acmetool.sh issue acme.domain.com d
  

  Code (Text):

  ./acmetool.sh issue acme.domain.com lived
  

• What was order of steps you did ? Did you run centmin.sh menu option 2 first with letsencrypt ? Then did you run addons/acmetool.sh afterwards ?

Centmin Mod Self-Signed SSL Fallback

If you're seeing a Centmin Mod's self-signed ssl certificate instead of letsencrypt ssl certificate, then that's acmetool.sh and centminmod's fallback if letsencrypt verification fails to obtain letsencrypt ssl cert, it falls back to centmin mod self-signed ssl certificate on https port 443 side so to preserve the https nginx vhost

Troubleshooting

There are various steps you can do to troubleshoot failed letsencrypt issuances, renews, reissues etc.

• acmetool.sh logs all command line or shell menu runs to log files at /root/centminlogs. To troubleshoot, copy the contents of the log run and post contents of log to pastebin.com or gist.github.com and share link in this thread. To find the log list the logs in ascending date order
  Code (Text):

  ls -lahrt /root/centminlogs

  .
• You can also do a quick grep filter on all previous and current acmetool.sh runs of the underlying acme.sh client for errors listed in errordetails field of each log using the command below:
  Code (Text):

  find /root/centminlogs/ -type f -name 'acme*.log' -printf '%TY-%Tm-%Td %TH:%TM:%TS %p\n' | sort | awk '{print $3}' | xargs -d '\n' grep -i 'errordetail'
  

• For direct acmetool.sh runs, there should be a 2nd & 3rd & 4th log in format /root/centminlogs/centminmod_${DT}_nginx_addvhost_nv.log and /root/centminlogs/acmetool.sh-debug-log-$DT.log and /root/centminlogs/acmesh-issue_*.log or /root/centminlogs/acmesh-reissue_*.log which would need to be included via separate pastebin.com or gist.github.com post.
• Enable acmetool.sh debug mode. In persistent config file at /etc/centminmod/custom_config.inc (create it if doesn't exist) add and enable acmetool.sh debug mode which gives much more verbose letsencrypt issuance process information when you re-run acmetool.sh or centmin.sh menu options 2, 22 or /usr/bin/nv command lines.
  
  Code (Text):

  ACMEDEBUG='y'

If acme.sh auto renewals didn't happen, check output for the following commands

Code (Text):

grep acme /var/log/cron* | sed -e "s|$(hostname -s)|host|g"

Code (Text):

echo y | /usr/local/src/centminmod/addons/acmetool.sh checkdates

Code (Text):

"/root/.acme.sh"/acme.sh --cron --home "/root/.acme.sh"

Code (Text):

echo | openssl s_client -connect yourdomain.com:443

Without the answers to above questions and logs, there is nothing to help troubleshoot.

SSLLabs Test

Also run your HTTPS domain site through SSLLabs tester at SSL Server Test (Powered by Qualys SSL Labs) if it says untrusted SSL cert and prompts to continue the test, continue the test.

Cloudflare

If you use Cloudflare, instead of the default Letsencrypt web root validation, you can use Cloudflare's DNS API for Letsencrypt DNS validation for your domain. See the outline at bottom of page at Letsencrypt Free SSL Certificates

 

You can remove the log if you want as I've downloaded and inspected it. The initial install log looks fine so not related to initial install issue. You'd want to inspect the Wordpress auto install log next

 

You can remove that log too, I've downloaded it now. I'll take a look at it tomorrow
