Exception ArgumentError in PhusionPassenger::Rack::ApplicationSpawner (invalid byte sequence in UTF-8)

sysadmin 1 Comment

I’ve got this error in redmine after upgrading to ruby 1.9.


[ pid=17020 thr=20031940 file=utils.rb:176 time=2012-09-07 01:42:47.904 ]: *** Exception ArgumentError in PhusionPassenger::Rack::ApplicationSpawner (invalid byte sequence in UTF-8) (process 17020, thread #<Thread:0x00000002635388>):

To solve this error edit shared-mime-info.rb file (shared-mime-info gem) and change the line open(file) in load_magic method:

336  def load_magic(file)
337        open(file) { |f|

with this:

336     def load_magic(file)
337        open(file,  'r:ASCII-8BIT') { |f|

restart web server that is all.

Could not find rake-0.9.2.2 in any of the sources (Bundler::GemNotFound)

After installing Redmine 2.x I got this error:

*** Exception PhusionPassenger::UnknownError in PhusionPassenger::Rack::ApplicationSpawner (Could not find rake-0.9.2.2 in any of the sources (Bundler::GemNotFound)) (process 16175):
	from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/bundler-1.1.5/lib/bundler/spec_set.rb:90:in `materialize'

To solve this I run this command in the redmine application directory

/var/www/redmine/bundle install --path vendor/bundle

bundle:2:in `require’: no such file to load — bundler (LoadError)

I installed Bundler gem during the Redmine installation

# gem install bundler
Successfully installed bundler-1.1.5
1 gem installed
Installing ri documentation for bundler-1.1.5...
Installing RDoc documentation for bundler-1.1.5...

And I got this error:

# bundle
/usr/bin/bundle:2:in `require': no such file to load -- bundler (LoadError)
	from /usr/bin/bundle:2

It seemed that it was not able to load required gem. I found required gem bundler.rb under “/var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/bundler-1.1.5/lib/”

# locate bundler.rb
/var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/bundler-1.1.5/lib/bundler.rb

As a workaround I edited the file /usr/bin/bundle and forced to load the required path:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
$LOAD_PATH << "/var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/bundler-1.1.5/lib/"
require 'bundler'

And got it working

Cannot detect your system information, you have to install ionCube loader manually

sysadmin 1 Comment

When accesing to the RVSiteBuilder in CPANEL I got the this error:

“Cannot detect your system information, you have to install ionCube loader manually.
Please contact your provider.”

The IonCube loader was correctly installed in /ioncube/, the solution for this error was to run the following script on the server:

# perl /var/cpanel/rvglobalsoft/rvsitebuilder/panelmenus/cpanel/scripts/autofixphpini.pl
Find php.ini...

syslog-ng: Number of allowed concurrent connections reached, rejecting connection

sysadmin 1 Comment

I have configured syslog-ng as a log server for all of the servers in my network and I noticed that when the number of servers in the network grew, some of them failed to send log messages to the log server. I found this warnings on my log server:

syslog-ng[16834]: Number of allowed concurrent connections reached, rejecting connection; client='AF_INET( X.X.X.X:48236)', local='AF_INET(0.0.0.0:514)', max='10'

By default the number of concurrent connections is 10, to solve the problem I’ve increased the number of concurrent connections in source secction in /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf file:

source network {
        udp(ip(0.0.0.0) port(514));
        tcp(ip(0.0.0.0) port(514)  max-connections(50) );
};
