Question

apt-get dist-upgrade asked me if I needed to change some files - it never did before now I cant access my websites

Posted June 4, 2018 2k views
NginxUbuntu 16.04

I normally try to keep my server updated and this link always give me error free upgrade and instal apart from today.

Here is what I got asked and I took the no changing route and it has broken my sites. The files were the sites-available with the server blocks. So it sounds like nginx changes something drastic…

Setting up nginx-common (1.13.12-1+ubuntu16.04.1+deb.sury.org+1) ...

Configuration file '/etc/nginx/nginx.conf'
 ==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
 ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
   What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are:
    Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version
    N or O  : keep your currently-installed version
      D     : show the differences between the versions
      Z     : start a shell to examine the situation
 The default action is to keep your current version.
*** nginx.conf (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ? N

Configuration file '/etc/nginx/sites-available/default'
 ==> Deleted (by you or by a script) since installation.
 ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.

Removing obsolete conffile /etc/init/nginx.conf ...

I am a bit lost. Should I take this opportunity to upgrade Ubuntu? I don’t want to complicate things so just getting it working would be great. Thanks for any help.

I did not switch the nginx php locations and they will have changed from /run/php/php7.0-fpm-style-review.sock; So I will try that first, be careful if you use nginx and apply fixes and tuts from apache based solutions.

    Yes 2 sites almost recovered (some issues with php7.2 deprecation) and one site that is using a socket still not working. I think php configuration might be slightly different. What was working was
    fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php5-fpm-style-review.sock;

    There is no file there now /run/php/ is empty so I can’t copy stuff across. Have tried simply
    fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.2-fpm-style-review.sock;

    Alas this is the last piece of the puzzle.

      fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;

      works but that’s not secure according to the server hardening of php tutorials and the whole point of a separate pool for each site..
