Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: error reading

问题:

I am having issue on PHP where my app is trying to run a php backup file and suddenly getting HTTP Error 500 Code. I have checked the logs and this what it saying.

[Tue Aug 28 14:17:28 2012] [warn] [client x.x.x.x] (104)Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: error reading data from FastCGI server, referer: http://example.com/backup/backup.php
[Tue Aug 28 14:17:28 2012] [error] [client x.x.x.x] Premature end of script headers: backup.php, referer: http://example.com/backup/backup.php

Anyone knows how to fix this? I'm really stuck in here and can't find solution in internet.

Hope anyone could share their knowledge.

Thanks. James

I managed to solved this by adding FcgidBusyTimeout . Just in case if anyone have similar issue with me.

Here is my settings on my apache.conf:

<VirtualHost *:80>
.......
<IfModule mod_fcgid.c>
FcgidBusyTimeout 3600
</IfModule>
</VirtualHost>

I had very similar errors in the Apache2 log files:

(104)Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: error reading data from FastCGI server
Premature end of script headers: phpinfo.php

After checking the wrapper scripts and Apache2 settings, I realized that /var/www/ did not have accordant permissions. Thus the FCGId Wrapper scripts could not be read at all.

ls -la /var/www
drwxrws---  5 www-data     www-data     4096 Oct  7 11:17 .

For my scenario chmod -o+rx /var/www was required of course, since the used SuExec users are not member of www-data user group - and they should not be member for security reasons of course.

if you want to install a PHP version < 5.3.0, you must replace

--enable-cgi

with:

--enable-fastcgi

in your ./configure statement, excerpt from the php.net doc:

--enable-fastcgi

If this is enabled, the CGI module will be built with support for FastCGI also. Available since PHP 4.3.0

As of PHP 5.3.0 this argument no longer exists and is enabled by --enable-cgi instead. After the compilation the ./php-cgi -v should look like this:

PHP 5.2.17 (cgi-fcgi) (built: Jul  9 2013 18:28:12)
Copyright (c) 1997-2010 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2010 Zend Technologies

NOTICE THE (cgi-fcgi)

The famous Moodle "replace.php" script can generate this situation too. For me it was taking ages to run and then failed with a 500 message in the browser and also with the above error message in my apache error log file.

I followed up on @james-wise answer: FcgidBusy is readably described in the Apache documentation. I tried this: doubled the amount of time which apache would give my script to run, by inserting the following line in /etc/apache2/mods-available/fcgid.conf

FcgidBusyTimeout 600

Then I restarted Apache and tried to run my replace.php script again.

Fortunately this time the script instance ran to completion, so for my purposes this served as a solution.

回答5:

I had this issue and realized that the file cgi-bin/php-fcgi had no execution rights.

It had 644 mode while is should have 755 mode.

Setting the correct mode was impossible (probably because the file was opened or sth), so I copied that file from another domain directory where it had proper rights already set and that fixed everything.

I came across this one while debugging a virtualmin/apache related error.

In my case, I am running virtualmin and had in my virtual machine's php.ini safe_mode=On.

In my Virtual Machine's error log, I was getting the fcgi Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: error reading data from FastCGI server

In my main apache error log I was getting: PHP Fatal error: Directive 'safe_mode' is no longer available in PHP in Unknown on line 0

In my case, I simply set safe_mode = Off in my php.ini and restarted apache.

回答7:

Not in this questions askers case but often:

What does the "premature end of script headers" error mean?

That error means that the FCGI call was exited unexpectedly.

In some cases it means that the script "backup.php" did crash.

How to fix this?

If the crash of a script was the cause, fix the script so that it does not crash. Then this error is fixed, too. To find out if and why a script crashes, you need to debug it. For example you can check the PHP error log. Errors logged to STDERR normally go into the error handler of the FCGI.

I had the same problem with long-running scripts with the error messages "Premature end of script headers: index.php" and "Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: error reading data from FastCGI server" in error_log. After hours of testing this helps for me (CentOS 6, PHP-FPM 7, Plesk 12.5.30):

edit the config file:

/etc/httpd/conf.d/fcgid.conf

Set a higher running time. In my case 600 seconds

create the new entry:

FcgidBusyTimeout 600

adapt following entries:

FcgidIOTimeout 600

FcgidConnectTimeout 600

restart httpd:

service httpd restart

In CentOS releases suexec is compiled to run only in /var/www. If you try to set a DocumentRoot somewhere else you have to recompile it - the error in apache log are: (104)Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: error reading data from FastCGI server Premature end of script headers: php5.fcgi

回答10:

Just install php5-cgi in debian

sudo apt-get install php5-cgi

in Centos

sudo yum install php5-cgi

回答11:

I increased max execution time to 600 seconds job done !

回答12:

Check /var/lib/php/session and its permissions. This dir should be writable by user so the session can be stored

回答13:

As already mentioned this could be happening due to fcgi handler permission issues. If you're using suexec - don't forget to check if apache has this module enabled.

I had the same problem with a different and simple solution.

Problem

I installed PHP 5.6 following the accepted answer to this question on Ask Ubuntu. After using Virtualmin to switch a particular virtual server from PHP 5.5 to PHP 5.6, I received a 500 Internal Server Error and had the same entries in the apache error log:

[Tue Jul 03 16:15:22.131051 2018] [fcgid:warn] [pid 24262] (104)Connection reset by peer: [client 10.20.30.40:23700] mod_fcgid: error reading data from FastCGI server
[Tue Jul 03 16:15:22.131101 2018] [core:error] [pid 24262] [client 10.20.30.40:23700] End of script output before headers: index.php

Cause

Simple: I didn't install the php5.6-cgi packet.

Fix

Installing the packet and reloading apache solved the problem:

• sudo apt-get install php5.6-cgi if you are using PHP 5.6

• sudo apt-get install php5-cgi if you are using a different PHP 5 version

• sudo apt-get install php7.0-cgi if you are using PHP 7

Then use service apache2 reload to apply the configuration.

I got the same problem (with Plesk 12 installed). However, when i switched from execute PHP as FastCGI to Apache Module the website worked.

Checked my suexec log:

$ cd /var/log/apache2/
$ less suexec.log

When you find something like this:

[2015-03-22 10:49:00]: directory is writable by others: (/var/www/cgi-bin/cgi_wrapper)
[2015-03-22 10:49:05]: uid: (10004/gb) gid: (1005/1005) cmd: cgi_wrapper

try this commands

$ chown root:root /var/www/cgi-bin/cgi_wrapper
$ chmod 755 /var/www/cgi-bin/cgi_wrapper
$ shutdown -r now

as root.

I hope it can help you.
