Cloudmin backgroud status checks

Hello,

I am migrating Cloundmin to a new dedicated server, its a fresh install and did not copy any settings over. I have openVZ systems and physical systems but Cloundmin is not doing the 5 min status checks. The manual fresh works. How to I turn on the automatic status checks?

Thank you, Rob

I had shut down an openvz container to test the status monitor. I just started it back up and received this message: Warning: configuration file for distribution cloudmin-10001 not found, using defaults from /etc/vz/dists/default

If you run the command /etc/webmin/server-manager/status.pl , do VM statuses get updated?

Yes, that command does update the status.

When I shutdown a container to test, I received this message even though it did shutdown: .. failed : Stopping container ...

Thanks, Rob

Did your system perhaps get upgraded to a new OpenVZ version as part of this?

Installed OpenVZ after Cloudmin was installed.

Is there any way we could login to your Cloudmin system to see what is going on here? There appear to be several different issues.

Sure can, let me know what you need me to do to get you in.

There is one VM that is live, #10003 so I would just have to let them know if we need to reboot.

Thanks, Rob

Ok, I see the issue with the status checks - for some reason, this has been removed as one of the Webmin scheduled functions.

To fix this, run the following :

cd /usr/libexec/webmin
export WEBMIN_CONFIG=/etc/webmin
export WEBMIN_VAR=/var/webmin
/usr/libexec/webmin/run-postinstalls.pl server-manager

That returned: Use of uninitialized value in split at /usr/libexec/webmin/acl/acl-lib.pl line 47.

but background status checks are working now.

Great! Thank you.

Great! You can ignore that other message.
