Topic: Server manager: Internal Server Error

[mdo]

Hi,
I have recently installed ClamAV on SME6.0 from Pagefault.org on a test system. It's using yum for the installation which made it very easy and comfortable to install, an excellent contribution.
I played with it for that day without problems and must have used server manager various time after installation without problems.
Next day I applied the latest user-manager from Dungog (Thanks for the update Stephen) and when I tried to use server-manager some hours later it just says:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
The httpd's admin_error_log shows:
[Mon Mar  8 20:39:07 2004] [error] (13)Permission denied: exec of /etc/e-smith/web/panels/manager/cgi-bin/pleasewait failed
[Mon Mar  8 20:39:07 2004] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Premature end of script headers: /etc/e-smith/web/panels/manager/cgi-bin/pleasewait

I have not seen that problem before and I do not believe that it just has to do with the user-manager upgrade, mybe the combination of both contribs?
Has anybody seen that before?

I can uninstall the usermanager but the problem still exists.

Regards,
Michael

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I searched the forums before and checked that the permissions for /tmp are correct.

I have both of those contribs installed on my 6.0.1-01 test box. No problems with the Server manager, everything working just file.

Complete list of contribs installed and under test:

Yum (including D Mays SM Panel ver 1.1.0-03)
ClamAV (with SM Panel pagefault.org)
User Manager Panel (Dungog ver 1.6.0-3)
Secure Mail (pagefault.org)
DHCP lease manager
BannerFilter (ver 1.2.1)
UpDate System (Dungog ver 0.0.1-15)
Backup2WS (D May ver 0.0.1-18)
phpsysinfo (D May ver 2.1.1)

All the above seem to be working just fine.

I also updated the following packages using D. May's Yum Update Manager. It worked like a champ.

iproute-2.4.7-1
libpcap-0.6.2-17.7.3.2
perl-NDBM_File-1.75-34.99.6
screen-3.9.11-3
glibc-common-2.2.5-43
perl-suidperl-5.6.1-34.99.6
fileutils-4.1-10.1
mysql-3.23.56-1.73
tcpdump-3.6.3-17.7.3.3
perl-DB_File-1.75-34.99.6
iptables-1.2.5-3
ucd-snmp-4.2.5-7.73.0
cvs-1.11.1p1-7es02
mysql-server-3.23.56-1.73
glibc-2.2.5-43
unzip-5.50-11
rsync-2.5.4-2es1
perl-CPAN-1.59_54-34.99.6
gnupg-1.0.7-7
mysql-devel-3.23.56-1.73
perl-5.6.1-34.99.6

After 2 days of some heavy testing including heavy use VPS connections in and out everything seems to be working without any problems to report.

I too am having this same problem on 2 of my test systems.

Can't contribute anything useful -- yet.

If I find anything I'll pass it on.

I found the permissions for /bin/bash to wrong:

It was on (Read/Execute) r-x by user (root), no group or "others" permissions - which also should be r-x.

This fixed it but I have no idea what changed the file permissions. I do not believe that anybody else was in that box....
