PHP-FPM How to troubleshoot PHP installs/upgrades

This guide is to mainly troubleshoot centmin.sh menu option 5 based PHP recompile/upgrade/downgrade routine. If you need to troubleshoot initial Centmin Mod installations, check out the steps at Install - How to troubleshoot Centmin Mod initial install issues

Every centmin.sh menu option has a full server log created with time stamped file name at /root/centminlogs. You can check that specific error log for clues or copy and paste log contents and post to pastebin.com or gist.github.com for sharing.

To troubleshoot, you need to check the the php upgrade logs at /root/centminlogs and instructions under Sharing logs and errors heading for using Pastebin.com or Gists to share a sanitised version of the contents of the nginx_upgrade and php_upgrade logs. You can see full details at How to troubleshoot Centmin Mod initial install issues

if you type this command it lists all logs in date ascending order so latest log at bottom

Code (Text):

ls -lArt /root/centminlogs

so copy the entire contents of latest php_upgrade log to gist.github.com or pastebin.com

you can use grep to filter the logs, i.e. look for nginx_upgrade or php in log name

Code (Text):

ls -lahrt /root/centminlogs/ | egrep 'nginx_upgrade|php_upgrade'

Code (Text):

ls -lahrt /root/centminlogs/ | egrep 'nginx_upgrade|php_upgrade'
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  2.6M Oct  3 03:48 centminmod_1.2.3-eva2000.09.001_031016-034409_php_upgrade.log
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  664K Oct 12 09:24 centminmod_1.2.3-eva2000.09.001_121016-092406_nginx_upgrade.log

So the last php upgrade log was named centminmod_1.2.3-eva2000.09.001_031016-034409_php_upgrade.log and located at /root/centminlogs/centminmod_1.2.3-eva2000.09.001_031016-034409_php_upgrade.log
then use cat command to output the contents of that log.

clear your ssh window buffer/screen and type

Code (Text):

cat /root/centminlogs/centminmod_1.2.3-eva2000.09.001_031016-034409_php_upgrade.log

then select and copy and paste output to pastebin.com or gist.github.com file to share. If your SSH client's scroll buffer isn't large enough using cat might not output the entire log file contents, so you may need to download the log and use local text editor to open and copy and paste.

So only need content of a specific log, in this case most recent php_upgrade.log logs
