Byron Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 Try renaming your .htaccess file in your root folder and see if that clears it up.
Snooze Posted April 17, 2011 Author Posted April 17, 2011 Try renaming your .htaccess file in your root folder and see if that clears it up. Hi Byron, Thanks for your reply. I'm afraid it didn't seem to work for me (however, terms like .htaccess and root folder are new to me, so maybe I haven't done what you suggested?). The root folder I took to mean the main folder for my site but possibly also the main folder for any installation/application within my site? I renamed the .htaccess file (as .htaccess1) in my /public_html/ folder; the .htaccess file was regenerated but there was no effect. So I tried changing every .htaccess file I could find. The file names I changed were: /public_html/sugar/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_txt/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_pvt/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_log/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_cnf/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_bin/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_bin/_vti_aut/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_bin/_vti_adm/.htaccess /public_html/_private/.htaccess However, none of this had any effect. Any further advice very welcome.
Byron Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 I meant just the one in your public_html folder. Try this, if your not using FrontPage Extensions, go to your cpanel and look for the link called FrontPage Extensions and uninstall them. That will remove all of this folders: /public_html/_vti_txt/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_pvt/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_log/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_cnf/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_bin/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_bin/_vti_aut/.htaccess /public_html/_vti_bin/_vti_adm/.htaccess /public_html/_private/.htaccess Then give it a try. Also check your Error log at your cpanel for errors for me.
Snooze Posted April 17, 2011 Author Posted April 17, 2011 Hi Byron, I uninstalled the Front Page extensions. The folders you listed were all removed but my problem is still there. These are numbers of errors, all of which are the same. Here's a sample showing the most recent errors reported on my Error log: [sun Apr 17 06:06:04 2011] [error] [client 2.100.103.127] File does not exist: /home1/jongleur/public_html/500.shtml [sun Apr 17 06:04:49 2011] [error] [client 2.100.103.127] File does not exist: /home1/jongleur/public_html/500.shtml [sun Apr 17 06:04:45 2011] [error] [client 2.100.103.127] File does not exist: /home1/jongleur/public_html/500.shtml [sun Apr 17 06:04:40 2011] [error] [client 2.100.103.127] File does not exist: /home1/jongleur/public_html/500.shtml
Byron Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 This support request is being escalated to our root admin.
Ashoat Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 You had a bunch of cpdavd processes running. I killed them. byron, other admins: This cpdavd issue seems to be pretty common. If a user reports it in the future, try running the following command: if [ `ps aux | grep cpdavd | grep -c USERGOESHERE` -ge 7 ]; then killall -u USERGOESHERE; fi
Guest Geoff Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 I wonder if we could include this in the bihourly cron run... Example: killall cpdavd
Ashoat Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 Better to make its own cronjob, but yeah it isn't hard to make. I wrote it up in awk and bash and added it to the root crontab to run every ten minutes, so hopefully this won't be an issue going forward.
Snooze Posted April 19, 2011 Author Posted April 19, 2011 Hi byron, djbob & Geoff, Just to let you know you sorted out my site, everythings working! Many thanks for the quick response and speedy resolution
