LAMP | Moodle and MediaWiki not working after server reboot

Dear TurnKey-Forum,

based upon my first post (Weblink) I've managed to install the TurnKey LAMP Web Stack App upon our server, given a static IP address 193.175.277.120 and installed Moodle and MediaWiki from the official repositories manually.

The installation of both apps works without any errors, following every step of the installation guides from the official websites (eg Moodle).

After the installation the two apps works with https connections without errors - just out of the box - no files needed to be edited upon the TurnKey LAMP Web Stack App or anything else.

/!\ Until yesterday: The server made a reboot itself.

After this the apps are not working anymore while all other apps (Webmin, PHPMyAdmin, shellinabox ...) are still running without errors.

I can't establish a http or https connection with my browser to both apps which were reachable before over the following two weblinks https://193.175.277.120/moodle and https://193.175.277.120/mediawiki.

I already searched over the TurnKey help and blog sites but haven't found any clues for my problem, so I want to ask here for help and support.

Thanks for your help and support.

best regards

Typo in your IP address?

It looks like you have a typo in that IP address. Is that the problem?

Indeed, I made a typo in the IP address - sorry about that - here are the right ones:

static IP adress of the server: 193.175.227.126
Moodle app: https://193.175.227.126/moodle/
MediaWiki app: https://193.175.227.126/mediawiki/

But I think that's not the problem - the server and all other apps (Webmin, PHPMyAdmin, shellinabox ...) are still running without errors, excuding the both Moodle and MediaWiki apps.

Thanks for your help and support.

best regards

TBH I'm not sure you're having the same issue...

FWIW the OP mentioned that his server restarted itself. It sounds to me like your issue is different.

However, I'm 99% sure I know why you are having issues. xcache is the default php 5.4 caching app. But it is incompatible with Moodle 2.7 (and no doubt other new php web apps). I you check the apache error log (in /var/log/apache2/error.log) I'm sure that you'll see segfaults in there (caused by the xcache incompatibility...)

To install Moodle 2.7 on TKL v13 LAMP have a read of this post.

Ah ok cool...

Well I suspect that you would have need to swap over to opcache anyway. When I installed Moodle 2.7 to a clean v13 LAMP it was very unstable. Once I had swapped to opcache it was rock solid...

Glad you got your issue sorted though.
