If you are getting “(13)Permission denied: /home/username/public_html/logo/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable, referer: http://www.yourdomain.com/logo/index.html” error in  apache error logs file /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log as well as the site is showing 403 Forbidden Error.

Then first please check the permissions of your folder and .htaccess file because folder permision are most likely 755 and .htaccess permission 644 . To change permissions use : chmod 644 the_name_of_your_path after that still you are getting same problem,then might be Frontpage Extension problem.

* Login into your CPanel account
* Click on Frontpage Extensions icon
* Click on Reinstall extensions button beside your problem domain.
* Done.

The .htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file problem  will be fixed.

if you’d like to turn off eAccelerator for a particular directory, put the following in a .htaccess file in that subdirectory:

php_flag eaccelerator.enable 0
php_flag eaccelerator.optimizer 0

If php suexec is enabled on server then create php.ini file and following code in that file to disble eAccelerator.

eaccelerator.enable 0

Firebird is an open source relational database offering many ANSI SQL-99 features that runs on Linux, Windows, and a variety of Unix platforms. Firebird offers excellent concurrency, high performance, powerful language support for stored procedures and triggers. It has been used in many production systems within a large number of commercial companies since 1981.

Steps to compile compile firebird module with php

1)Download the firebird module  to server

Cd /usr/src

wget http://nchc.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/firebird/Firebird-2.0.3.12981-1.tar.bz2

2)Manually build and install the firebird module

tar -jxf Firebird-2.0.3.12981-1.tar.bz2

cd Firebird-2.0.3.12981-1

mv Firebird-2.0.3.12981-1 firebird

cd firebird

./autogen.sh; make;make install

3)Rebuild PHP along with the firebird

‘–with-interbase=/usr/src/firebird’ option.

When installing is finished, open the php.ini configuration file (located in /usr/local/lib/), and check if these lines exist (uncomment/modify them if necessary):

magic_quotes_sybase = On	; Use Sybase-style magic quotes (escape ' with '' instead of ')
extension=php_interbase.so

magic_quotes_sybase = On	; Use Sybase-style magic quotes (escape ' with '' instead of ')
extension=php_interbase.so

 4) check php module using php -m command

[emerg] (28)No space left on device: Couldn't create accept lock

[notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper: /usr/sbin/suexec)

[notice] Digest: generating secret for digest authentication ...

[notice] Digest: done

[warn] pid file /etc/httpd/run/httpd.pid overwritten -- Unclean shutdown of previous Apache run?

[emerg] (28)No space left on device: Couldn't create accept lock

I checked disk space, or quota limit but everything was fine. I through it seem to apache semaphore problem

Apache can create the “accept lock” is with a semaphore. A semaphore is an inter-process communication tool that is used by Apache to communicate with it’s child processes. This error message may mean that Apache couldn’t create a new semaphore.

Check to see how many semaphores are currently in use. If Apache is running correctly, you should see something like this:

# ipcs -s

If Apache is stopped, and you still see these semaphores, then you can safely kill them by running this command for each semaphore id (in the second column)

$ ipcrm -s <semid> 

To destroy all semaphores, you can run this from the command line (with “apache” being the apache-user:

for semid in `ipcs -s | grep apachec | cut -f2 -d" "`; do ipcrm -s $semid; done

OR

ipcs -s | grep apache | perl -e ‘while (<STDIN>) { @a=split(/\s+/); print `ipcrm sem $a[1]`}’

OR

ipcs -s | grep nobody | perl -e ‘while () { @a=split(/\s+/); print `ipcrm sem $a[1]`}’
ipcs -m | grep nobody | perl -e ‘while () { @a=split(/\s+/); print `ipcrm -m $a[1]`}’

OR

for i in `ipcs -s | awk ‘/httpd/ {print $2}’`; do (ipcrm -s $i); done

How to increase semaphore limit

To view the current parameters:

ipcs -l

To change these parameters, modify the file /etc/sysctl.conf and add the following lines:

kernel.msgmni = 1024

kernel.sem = 250 256000 32 1024

Then load these settings with the command:

sysctl -p

PDO_MYSQL is a driver that implements the PHP Data Objects (PDO) interface to enable access from PHP to MySQL 3.x and 4.x databases.

PDO_MYSQL will take advantage of native prepared statement support present in MySQL 4.1 and higher. If you’re using an older version of the mysql client libraries, PDO will emulate them for you.

Steps to compile compile pdo_mysql module with php

1) Download the PDO package to server

          # wget http://pecl.php.net/get/PDO

2) Manually build and install the PDO extension:

	  # tar xzf PDO-0.2.tgz

	  # cd PDO-0.2

	  # phpize

	  # ./configure

          # make

          # make install

          # echo extension=pdo.so >> /usr/local/php5/lib/php.ini

3) rebuild PHP along with the drivers for PDO_mysql.

CUSTOM_PHP_FLAGS=”–with-pdo-mysql” /scripts/easyapache

4) check php module using php –m command

Redirect Old domain to New domain

Create a .htaccess file with the below code, it will ensure that all your directories and pages of your old domain will get correctly redirected to your new domain.
The .htaccess file needs to be placed in the root directory of your old website (i.e the same directory where your index file is placed)

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.newdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Please REPLACE www.newdomain.com in the above code with your actual domain name.

In addition to the redirect I would suggest that you contact every backlinking site to modify their backlink to point to your new website.

Redirect to www

Create a .htaccess file with the below code, it will ensure that all requests coming in to domain.com will get redirected to www.domain.com
The .htaccess file needs to be placed in the root directory of your old website (i.e the same directory where your index file is placed)

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
rewritecond %{http_host} ^domain.com [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [r=301,nc]

Please REPLACE domain.com and www.newdomain.com with your actual domain name.

Error: Table ‘tbl_ name’ doesn’t exist databasename_tablesname.frm can’t open

If you get either of the following errors, it usually means that no table exists in the current database with the given name:

Table ‘tbl_name’ doesn’t exist

Can’t find file: ‘tbl_name’ (errno: 2)

A ) In some cases, it may be that the table does exist but that you are referring to it incorrectly:

Because MySQL uses directories and files to store databases and tables, database and table names are case sensitive if they are located on a file system that has case-sensitive filenames.

Even for file systems that are not case sensitive, such as on Windows, all references to a given table within a query must use the same letter case.

B ) In some cases, it may be that the table exist but same error occurs then

1 ) Check the permission and ownership of database i.e. it should be same below

drwx—— 2 mysql mysql cpanelusername_dbname.

2) If the permission are corrects but same error occurs then it seems that your database table may be corrupts then there are following way to repair the DB

a) Go to whm >>SQL Services >> Repair a Database >> select database name and click Repair Database.

b) Go to cpanel >> mysql section MySQL Account Maintenance >> search database then click on Repair.

C) You can repair it though shell when mysqld server is running

i) login in mysql to that particular user by using following command

mysql>mysql –u databaseusername –p databasename

ii) select particular database

mysql> use databasename;

iii) Check whether database table is corrupted or not if following command output shows null value then it should be corrupts otherwise it is fine

mysql>show table status like ‘table name’\G; Or
mysql>check table tablename ;

iv)If it is corrupts then use the following command to repair that particular database table.

mysql>repair table tablename;

D] You can repair it though shell when mysqld server is not running
