How to deal with "Possible attack detected. This action has been logged." error message in our ISPConfig control panel
ISPConfig uses a variety of protection systems to keep it secure, including IDS (Intrusion Detection System) technology. However, this setting may be too sensitive and disable us from the control panel as well. In this little troubleshooter, we'll see what we can do if our ISPConfig control panel doesn't allow us, but instead gets a "Possible attack detected. This action has been logged." error message.
What if our Sury.org repository is not updated due to a GPG signing error on our Debian server?
If you are using custom PHP versions on your Debian server that are updated via the Sury.org repository, you have previously configured this repository, which was still working before, and APT upgraded the packages without any problems. However, an update may cause an error in the package manager and you may not be able to access the latest packages. We will remedy this problem in this short troubleshooter.
How to automatically clean PHP session files left in the tmp directories of web accounts in an ISPConfig server environment
PHP sessions are global variables that transmit data stored during web visits across multiple pages, i.e., they are not lost when moving from one page to another. PHP accomplishes this by assigning unique IDs to visits (sessions) and creating files in the server-side file structure associated with those IDs in which it stores the data required for the session. The system places these files in a specific directory, usually tmp, which is normally deleted by the garbage collector after a specified time. However, the situation is sometimes not so obvious. This is because if the PHP environment on the server changes, the garbage collector may not be able to delete these obsolete, unnecessary session files. In this description, we will look at how we can use our own solution to ensure that these session files are deleted when the default cleaning system cannot remove them.
How to remove index.php parts from the URLs of our Drupal based CMS system
Drupal is an open source, free CMS (content management) system that can be used to build a wide variety of websites, such as this site. It has many features, including support for managing SEO URLs, which is notoriously beneficial for search engines. As elsewhere, unfortunately, errors can occur here, such as index.php files being unduly included in page URLs. In this short little troubleshooter, we'll look at how to remove these unnecessary index.php parts from URLs.
How to fix errors in the Security Policy for ImageMagick / Imagick Conversion Systems
ImageMagick is a free and open source, cross-platform software package designed primarily for displaying, creating, converting, modifying, and editing raster images, but can also handle a variety of vector formats such as EPS (Encapsulated PostScript), AI (Adobe Illustrator) , PDF (Portable Document Format), etc. In total, it supports more than 200 image file formats. And Imagick is a native PHP extension that allows you to manage different image formats in a web environment using the ImageMagick API. In this quick troubleshooter, we take a look at how to fix errors from the software security policy with a little intervention.
