    Kind of curius how this happened.
    Linode migrated my server to a newer datacenter and my domains all have the same IP.

    Upon trying to start nginx, I get the error:
    Code (Text):
    Starting nginx (via systemctl):  Job for nginx.service failed because the control
process exited with error code. See "systemctl status nginx.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details
[FAILED]

    Troubleshooting with the first command reveals:
    Code (Text):
    ● nginx.service - SYSV: Nginx is an HTTP(S) server, HTTP(S) reverse proxy and IMAP/POP3 proxy server
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/nginx; bad; vendor preset: disabled)

Sep 27 19:54:39 atlas systemd[1]: nginx.service failed.


    I don't really know what to make of this error.

    Nginx 1.19.x
    MariaDB 5.5/10.x
    Linode host node cpu changed most likely. Centmin Mod compiles Nginx with specific cpu optimisations so if you run centmin.sh menu option 4 to recompile nginx and menu 5 to recompile php you should be fine

    The below is classic symptom of the issue
    Code (Text):
    Sep 27 19:54:39 atlas nginx[11053]: Starting nginx: /bin/bash: line 1: 11065 Illegal instruction     /usr/local/sbin/nginx -c /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf
Sep 27 19:54:39 atlas nginx[11053]: [FAILED]


    I did add to 123.09beta01 a new option that can address this before you move servers at https://community.centminmod.com/th...ive-option-for-123-09beta01-and-higher.12817/.

    Awesome! You're a life saver (and a server saver) :)
    Recompiling NGINX fixed the problem.

    Guess it's time to update PHP as well. Any reason to NOT upgrade PHP 7.0.x to 7.1.x?

    Compatibility issues with scripts you use that do not support PHP 7. You can always downgrade if you run into issues.
