Suspend/resume virtual host in webadmin console does not work without manual lsws restart

[gilles]

I was trying to suspend/resume a virtual host from the webadmin console and it was not taking. The toggle only took after I did 'sudo service lsws restart' from the terminal. I am running lsws 1.7.4.

Let me know if this is a known problem or maybe there is an issue with my installation (permission?). Thank you.

Hi,
I tried v1.6.15 no issue. Then upgrade to v1.7.4, tried it again, still no issue. No issue here means no need to restart web server.
If you feel it's a bug and reproducible, please submit a ticket to bug@litespeedtech.com

Thank you for the reply. Is there a log I can look at (or turn on) to figure out what's wrong in my installation?

Here's the example log I saw when I clicking the suspend button from web admin

tail -f /usr/local/lsws/logs/error.log

That is definitely not happening for me. Now to figure out why.

Here are some unusual messages I see in my server log:

...​

2020-09-10 02:08:12.525802 [NOTICE] chroot is disabled.​

...​

020-09-10 02:49:00.060799 [NOTICE] sendKillCmdToWatchdog: 'extappkill:1867:-3:0'.​

...​

Nothing happens in the log when I click on suspend/resume. Then after a few seconds, the webadmin console kicks me out and I have to log back in. But the state of the virtual host is still the same.

 

[gilles]

Turns out it works if I use Safari instead of Chrome.

On a different note, the server error log webadmin console interface seems broken (in both browsers). On the dashboard page, nothing is displayed. And on the server log viewer page, nothing is displayed unless I select DEBUG and it keeps searching only 213 entries for some reason:

Searched 213 log entries and found 0 above level INFO​

No idea where that 213 number comes from as the log file currently has 71246 lines. I also cannot seem to change the time order to descending. Clicking on the caret down icon does nothing. Am I misunderstanding how the interface is supposed to work?

​

 

[gilles]

Oh I figured out I have to increase the length parameter. Now if there was a way to change the time display ordering to descending...

 

[gilles]

Apparently, it's this line in /usr/local/lsws/admin/html.open/view/logviewer.php:

$("#dash_logtbl").dataTable(
{"ordering": false, // <-- CHANGE to true
"lengthMenu":[[30,50,100,200],[30,50,100,200]]}
);

I cannot comprehend why this is not default. Who does not need ordering options?

 

[gilles]

Okay last question, how can I display the log from the end instead of the beginning?

 

[gilles]

Ah I figured it out, need to click on the >| button. This interface needs a UX/UI designer.

 

[gilles]

FYI I posted in another thread that there is a bug in the code related to displaying the log from the end of the file.
