Topic: Server-manager gone from http

[groovicus]

Not sure if this is a bug, or I didn't understand what I was doing and messed something up. Anyway, I updated some packages this morning using yum:

Jun 29 16:29:08 Updated: krb5-libs.i386 1.3.4-49
Jun 29 16:29:09 Updated: httpd-suexec.i386 2.0.52-32.2.ent.centos4
Jun 29 16:29:12 Updated: httpd.i386 2.0.52-32.2.ent.centos4
Jun 29 16:29:12 Updated: mod_ssl.i386 1:2.0.52-32.2.ent.centos4
Jun 29 16:29:13 Updated: httpd-devel.i386 2.0.52-32.2.ent.centos4

I did:
signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot

Then I opened the browser on my workstation and tried to open the server-manager to add a user, and I got a file not found error. So I opened a terminal and tried to log in as admin and was able to get the server console. But when I tried to hit server-manager from there, I got a 404 error not found.

This topic here pretty much details everything I have already done. Checked both servers, checked error logs, etc.

The first indication of trouble in my error_log is when I tried touse it this afternoon:

[client 192.168.0.2] File does not exist: /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html/server-manager

I removed one custom template for a rewrite rule yesterday out of /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/VirtualHosts. I left the VirtualHosts directory there. The only other custom template I have is for including a mod_jk.conf, and that only has a single line in it, and has not been a problem at all. A also don't have a /etc/e-smith/templates-user-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/ directory. After I removed the template, I expanded httpd.conf, did signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot.

Everything else is working fine, and I have looked at all of the posts I could find concerning the server-manager. I can not log into the server manager at all, either by ssh into the server, or from the local network. Did I miss something simple, like a related but yet un-thought of search topic?

this is a problem and  belongs in the bug tracker

>Jun 29 16:29:13 Updated: httpd-devel.i386 2.0.52-32.2.ent.centos4

you have installed httpd-devel
so you have a non standard repo enabled
or an error caused by the update problem as explained in the FAQ

[root@kiwi ~]# rpm -qa |grep httpd
httpd-suexec-2.0.52-32.2.ent.centos4
httpd-2.0.52-32.2.ent.centos4

Reported here. I really don't remember enabling any other repos, but I surely must have.

At the risk of sounding stupid and wasting your time:

[client 192.168.0.2] File does not exist: /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html/server-manager

server-manager is not a file in the Primary ibay -- it is an alias invoked by /etc/httpd/admin-conf/httpd/conf pointing to /etc/e-smith/web/panels/manager/html

The server-manager config file is used by /etc/init.d/httpd-admin.  What do you get if you run /etc/init.d/httpd-admin status?

The httpd-admin service logs to /var/log/httpd/admin_access_log and /var/log/httpd/admin_error_log - do you get anything there?

The only mentions of server-manager in the normal httpd.conf file are a re-direct rule to send you to https://<server>/server-manager and something about proxypass on port 980.  Are you using http or https when trying to access server-manager?


Can you get in if you do this from your Windows workstation:

Code: [Select]

C:\path\to\putty <smeserver> -L 980:127.0.0.1:980Then browse to http://localhost:980/server-manager from the same workstation?

One of the files you updated related to ssl.  Can you still access any ssl-encrypted website on your server, or have all ssl connections stopped working?

For your reference, here are the files listed in my (close-to-virgin) SME 7.1.3 /etc/httpd/conf.d folder:

Code: [Select]

You're definitely not wasting my time. I had not thought of trying to access the server manager using https, but that worked. Previously, all I had to do was enter '192.168.0.3/server-manager" in my workstation, and the server manager would work. And that answers your question about httpd-admin; it is running.

I have the following in my admin_error_log, but previous to me hitting the server-manager with https, it was blank:

My conf.d is identical to yours. the only difference I have in the templates is a custom template that includes my mod_jk.conf location, and it only has a single line in it:

less  /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/99Include
Include /usr/java/tomcat5/conf/mod_jk.conf

My bug was tagged as a duplicate of another:
http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3057
Sounds sort of the same, except that one had a ton of custom templates. Is it considered bad form to pop in on someone else's bug report if it will may help to resolve the issue? Judging by your description, I am guessing that something in either the updates is hosing the httpd.conf file. I'm not exactly sure how to chase that error down though.

EDIT: I just ran across someting sort of interesting.

But when I did the following:

Code: [Select]


cd /sbin/e-smith/audittools
./templates

/etc/e-smith/templates-custom/home/e-smith/ssl.crt: MANUALLY_ADDED, OVERRIDE
/etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/99Include: MANUALLY_ADDED, ADDITION
/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/atalk/papd.conf/20printers: MULTIPLE_RPM_OWNERS e-smith-LPRng-1.14.0-4.el4.sme, e-smith-netatalk-1.14.0-3.el4.sme

There is an extra custom-template that didn't show up before.

So what is in 99Includes and VirtualHosts?  Does one of these alter the normal SME re-direct that sends http://.../server-manager to https?

[groovicus]

The 99Include has only a single line:
Include /usr/java/tomcat5/conf/mod_jk.conf

The VirtualHosts directory is empty.

My rewrite rule in the httpd.conf is:
RewriteRule ^/server-manager(/.*|$)    https://%{HTTP_HOST}/server-manager$1 [L,R]

[mmccarn]

I don't know if the <Location...> is important, or if the .../server-common is important, so here they are from my system.  I suppose if your 'allow from ' is set wrong then the rewrite might fail...

Code: [Select]

   RewriteRule ^/server-manager(/.*|$)    https://%{HTTP_HOST}/server-manager$1 [L,R]
    <Location /server-manager>
        order deny,allow
        deny from all
        allow from 127.0.0.1 192.168.200.0/255.255.255.0
    </Location>
    RewriteRule ^/server-common(/.*|$)    https://%{HTTP_HOST}/server-common$1 [L,R]
    <Location /server-common>
        order deny,allow
        deny from all
        allow from 127.0.0.1 192.168.200.0/255.255.255.0
    </Location>

I'm in process of setting up a new sme 7.1.3 server, and encountered this today:

Bad Gateway

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.

This was after I'd used yum to install a load of contrib addons. Luckily I know which I loaded, and roughly when, so I removed then (resulting in the server-manager being available once more).

Re-installing, one at a time points to smeserver-userpanel-0.9-5.noarch.rpm which re-introduced the problem. I haven't had time yet to investigate in more detail, though I saw that one of the newly-added templates is:

/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/92(forget_the_rest)

And this contained stuff like in mmccarn's posting.

Maybe this will give a pointer to someone around here?

I'll be returning to this problem tomorrow

Hold It! Spoke too soon.

Previous posting referring to:
smeserver-userpanel-0.9-5.noarch.rpm

I checked to see that I had the latest version, and this is not. So I downloaded the current version:
smeserver-userpanel-0.9-10.noarch.rpm

Which I've installed, and server-manager is accessible as it should be.

This teaches me to ALWAYS check that I have the latest versions, and not rely on what I have in my local store.

Sorry to have diverted attention from what is probably a different issue.

Here is mine:

Code: [Select]


<Location /server-manager>
        order deny,allow
        deny from all
        allow from 127.0.0.1 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0
 192.168.0.5/255.255.255.0
    </Location>

I don't recall adding access for 192.168.0.0. Added by default for administrative access I suppose?

[mmccarn]

This looks like you have 3 functionally identical 'local networks' defined:

• 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 will be created if your local IP is 192.168.0.x with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0
• 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0 must have been manually added.  Since the ".0" in the netmask tells IP to ignore the address byte in that octet, this exactly matches the same range of hosts as the first entry - 192.168.0.1 through 192.168.0.254.
• 192.168.0.5/255.255.255.0 - see previous entry

I don't see why this would prevent server-manager from working, though...

[groovicus]

Thanks for the explanation of the subnet masking, and for suggesting the use of https for hitting the server-manager. I'll tinker around and see if I can figure out what is going on. I really am not seeing anything at all. If anything, I'll do a repair and see if I can recreate the error.
