Server :: Sendmail Works But Opens 43 File Handles Per Email

Dec 16, 2010

I'm using Sendmail 8.13.8 on a CentOS 5.5 vServer (Virtuozzo). I'm using a loop in PHP to send a lot of HTML-mails via sendmail. Each mail is a mail with individual statistics for our users, so its not mass mailing, bcc is not an option. It all works fine, but when I take a closer look there is a problem heading our way with a high number of mails: For each mail sendmail opens up 43 files. Sometimes these open files get closed again very fast, sometimes not.

Here is an example using the PHP-script below, it sends 20 mails in a loop:
[root]# php test-mail.php
START: number of open files: 2113
END: number of open files: 2973

This is the worst case. The number of open files (lsof | wc -l) used to send the 20 mails is 860 => 43 open files per mail. Sometimes the files are closed very fast, so I get results like this, too:
[root]# php test-mail.php
START: number of open files: 2113
END: number of open files: 2242

This shows 129 (3 * 43) open files, so the open files for 17 send mails are already closed, for 3 mails the 129 files are still open. In the worst case and with lots of mails our server crashes, the numfile limit of 8192 in user_beancounters is reached (our ISP won't give us more than 8192). Sendmail DeliveryMode is background. Could it be that sendmail tries to send lots ob mails asynchronously and uses 43 open files for each?

I'm only depending on sendmail to deliver the mails, normally I wouldn't dare to touch the sendmail config (like 'if you don't know what you're doing, don't!'). It is not a problem of PHP. I verified this by sending mails via SMTP localhost to sendmail (opened 43 files per mail) and sending mails via SMTP to an ISP-relay (did not open any files per mail). This is the code for test-mail.php:

PHP Code:
<?php
$output = shell_exec('lsof | wc -l');
echo "START: number of open files: $output";
// HTML message
$msg = '<html><head><title>Test mail</title></head><body><p>Mailbody</p></body></html>';
// Set 'Content-type'-header
$header = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . " ";
$header .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . " ";
for($i=0; $i<20; $i++) {
// send mail, this opens up 43 files for each
mail('you@yourdomain.com', 'Testmail '.$i, $msg, $header, '-f
[email]bounce@yourdomain.com[/email]'); }
$output = shell_exec('lsof | wc -l');
echo "END: number of open files: $output"; ?>

Server :: Postfix - One Account Cannot Send / Receive Email (Other Works Fine)

Dec 7, 2010

I just set up a new email server on Debian Lenny. It's Postfix for MTA and Dovecot for IMAPS server. I use Dovecot for authentication. I have two UNIX users on the system (except root), one was added before the installation of Postfix and Dovecot. I'm not doing any virtual things, just plain UNIX users and one domain on a dynamic IP. The first user, "webadmin" can send and receive emails just fine through the server from my mail client.

Now I just added a new user, "scarleo", and it turns out I'm unable to send and receive emails with this account. If I log in (SSH) with scarleo I can use bash mail to send emails, works fine. scarleo can also receive emails from webadmin and can connect to Dovecot to read emails. However scarleo cannot send or receive to or from anyone outside the server from my mail client. I have restarted both Postfix and Dovecot after adding the user. Do I have to do something else to make this account work like webadmin's?

A few relevant lines from mail.log: (I've modded my real IP)
Code:
Dec 7 17:44:42 homer dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<scarleo>, method=PLAIN, rip=96.136.112.229, lip=192.168.0.18, TLS

Server :: WordPress Blogging Server Running Slow For What Reason?

May 16, 2009

I have a wordpress blogging server up and running and i've also got nagios monitoring the speed of webpage download etc.The thing is a couple of weeks ago nagios alerted me that the blog was returning pages really slow loading, when i went to the blog homepage for me also it was very slow. After about 30mins of http connections some finally loading and some not nagios stopped reporting issues, but thats not the end of the story, the graphing of speed i've got set-up on nagios shows quite clearly that ever since that big slow down the pages take avg of extra 2-3 seconds to load. However nothing drastic has changed and the datasize of the page hasn't really changed at all (also monitored).

During that weird period I carried out checks on the server itself like top, free -m, netstat (looking for maybe DOS attack number of connections), looked at mysql see if that was running slow and what processes it was running, checked on number of http processes see if they had ramped up, checked on php and web server errors see if they had increased some what as well. None of these things turned up anything noticeable to be causing such slow blog response.Now its still that average amount high and i'm lost at why this could be? Its niggling at me that something may have got in but i've taken several security steps to try and lock down the wordpress install etc.

Server :: Wordpress Asking For Ftp Credentials?

Jun 19, 2011

I host a number of sites and recently migrated to a new server (both old and new are running Ubuntu 10.04 [I only upgrade my web server when there is a new LTS release]). After the migration, Wordpress is asking for ftp credentials to update plugins, which it never used to do. I'm certain this is user/group/permissions related, but because of the new setup, I'm not sure what these should be set to.

On the previous server, each site was a subdirectory of /var/www/ and everything was owned by www-data. This wasn't the best setup, since it meant my users didn't have direct access to their own sites. In the new setup, each page I host is in /home/username/www/. Consequently, all the files are owned by 'username'.

My guess is that Wordpress' request for ftp credentials stems from a conflict between the apache2 user and the usernames that own the sites. Is this accurate? If so, how do I rectify this?

General :: Set Wordpress Permissions On Server

Mar 9, 2011

I have question regarding setting permissions on wp-content/uploads... in wordpres. I read a tutorial where they want you to set permissions: chown -R julie.julie uploads/ chmod -R 777 uploads/ 777 makes it rwx for others as well. It's not secure! It works but is temporary fix. How I can make sure that the user julie (wordpress) will be able to write to it but anybody else wont.

Server :: Securing Wordpress With Htaccess ?

Am trying to come up with a rule to rewrite all calls to certain files if they are not originating from my domain, here is how it looks right now but it's not working as I can see scripts trying to hit "wp-comments-post.php" getting a 500 Internal Server Error.

Server :: Administer Wordpress From Different Host On Same LAN?

Feb 7, 2011

I have a web server with LAMP and wordpress on it. I'm going to administer wordpress from a different host on the same LAN as the server (the server doesn't have X and desktop software on it). When you build a site, with wordpress, from a separate admin host what exactly is happening?. Do browser requests from the admin host go to the web server, then out to the Internet, then back to the web server, then the results get displayed back to the browser on the admin host?. Or does it work differently?. Will such a set up work automatically after the installation and basic configuration of LAMP and wordpress on the web server?.

Debian :: Wordpress Server Folder Ownership?

Feb 9, 2011

I've recently started setting up a new wordpress install on a new dedicated server. The system is installed on a linux debian 5 setup and running on apache.Having only ever run shared hosting before this setup is a much bigger leap than expected, but after a couple of weeks doing bits here and there I've finally got the setup running, and all appears ok.My issue is as follows:On the server the default owner of all the installed folders is "root"In order to allow media uploads, plugin installs and upgrades and wordpress auto-upgrades I've had to Chown the owner of the entire wordpress directory to the server as follows:Chown -R www-data:www-data /usr/share/wordpress/

Can anyone tell me if this is actually secure? (clearly if the server is compromised the folder would be writeable!) If not would I be better changing the owner back to root (or even creating a new user for the wordpress folder?), then chown just the uploads, theme, and blogs.dir folders to allow media uploads, upgrades, etc from with the wordpress, and then only chown the entire wordpress install when upgrading or installing new plugins, themes, etc.?Just a bit lost when it comes to the ownership of these folders as changing these ownerships is the only way i can get the system functioning 'correctly'

I want to received mail to be delivered to both mail servers at the same time.I would like to use postfix, exim i find a bit to difficult to understand.I have thought of using transport maps, the only problem is that you can only forward mail to one server at a time using transport maps.I think recipient_bcc_maps and sender_bcc_maps could work, i would just like ideas of how i can do this.

Ubuntu Servers :: LAMP Server / WordPress - Permissions Failure

May 7, 2011

Main purpose of this LAMP server is testing development. I would like to get this server setup up almost exactly to a T how my real web hosting server is setup. I am running 11.04 and have installed LAMP. I also installed vsftpd. I went ahead and made a symlink from /home/user/public_html to /var/www/. I login from a Windows 7 computer via CuteFTP to my Ubuntu server. I can enter the public_html directory and can create folders but the default permissions for any folder created is 700. I have tried running chmod -R 755 /home/user/public_html but this does not work. Every file or folder created now currently will take a 700 permission.

How do I make it so anything that is uploaded into this folder will be at either 755 or 775? Also what is the best practice for utilizing the /var/www directory? Should I be using a symlink to link it to my user's home folder? I have read through so many posts with regards to adding users to a group and giving this group permission and this or that I'm so confused.

Server :: Config NGINX For Multiple Domains With Wordpress On Debian?

I have VPS installed with Debian, NGINX, mysql, php and wordpress. By default the template gives 1 wordpress install in the /var/www/ directory. However, now I want to add more domains with wordpress to that VPS. I created a directory called /home/public_html/domain1.com and linked it to the /var/www/ directory. then I created another directory called /home/public_html/domain2.com and uploaded wordpress there. What I did next was edit my /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file with the following code:

Fedora Servers :: Setting Up An Email Server?

I want the server to allow user authenticated access to a certain folder on the machine where other clients can go and copy and paste files for the data server portions and I want it to download emails from multiple domains (Gmail, a Microsoft Exchange Server, and from a private domain) and then allow other clients to log in and download those messages (I would like to keep each domain's emails separate so the client has to specify which domain's emails to download).

Fedora :: YUM Update Broke Wordpress And Gallery

I ran a yum update a couple days ago, and it completed without error. Today I tried logging into Wordpress, and was unable to do so. I get a 403 error. Further investigation shows that I can no longer run any php scripts for Wordpress or Gallery. A look through yum log shows the following packages were installed:

Dec 13 11:22:52 Updated: mysql-libs.i386 5.0.88-1.fc10
Dec 13 11:23:57 Updated: qt-mysql.i386 1:4.5.3-9.fc10

Dec 13 11:37:47 Updated: mysql-server.i386 5.0.88-1.fc10

There were no updates to apache, php, or SElinux, so I am at a loss to explain why apache is no longer able to run php scripts.

Server :: Wordpress Not Starting Properly - Fatal Error: Allowed Memory Size Of 16777216 Bytes Exhausted

But i only get the error: "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 16777216 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7680 bytes) in /var/www/wordpress/wp-admin/includes/plugin.php on line 302". Some googleing seems to suggest that this may be a problem with a php.ini file, but im assuming this is a windows based solution, and im not sure where/what a linux alternative is.
