Administrators Nathan Posted July 15, 2012 Administrators Share Posted July 15, 2012 Is that the DNS failing? Brent or one of the others on here that have a hosting company could probably answer this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquiLayer - Brent Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 This isn't DNS, it's ClamAV. I have our best linux tech working on this issue. It will not hinder the performance of the machine, it simply runs AV each night. We sometimes come across weird errors related to ClamAV running. When building VPS's by hand, things are configured a little differently than the standard cookie cutter VPS. We lock the firewalls down to the extreme and perform other tasks. Sometimes cPanel/WHM doesn't completely see some DNS related entries even though they're there and correct. I usually browse the forums every few hours checking to see if any customers have reported any issues that we need to be aware of. Thankfully, I've got our best tech working on your VPS.

redinit Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 What are the permissions on the socket file and directory? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquiLayer - Brent Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 What are the permissions on the socket file and directory? We've already resolved the issue. It appears to have been an installation problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Posted July 15, 2012 Author Share Posted July 15, 2012 Do we know what was causing this issue? Just for the sake of helping people that don't have the support as good as you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquiLayer - Brent Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Do we know what was causing this issue? Just for the sake of helping people that don't have the support as good as you. Sorry for the delay in getting back to this thread, I haven't been on the forum in a few days. As I mentioned above, there was a problem with the install. -Brent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
