IMPROVED ERROR LOG DETECTION:
- Now checks 5 different locations for error logs:
• /home/USER/public_html/error_log
• /home/USER/logs/error_log
• /home/USER/error_log
• /var/log/apache2/domlogs/DOMAIN-error_log
• /usr/local/apache/domlogs/DOMAIN
- Increased tail from 100 to 500 lines for better error capture
NEW .HTACCESS DETECTION:
- If no error_log found, checks for .htaccess file
- Looks for RewriteRules, php_value, php_flag directives
- If found, classifies as 'HTACCESS_LIKELY' instead of 'NO_ERROR_LOG_FILE'
- Provides specific .htaccess troubleshooting steps
BETTER ROOT CAUSE CATEGORIES:
- HTACCESS_LIKELY: Has .htaccess with rules, likely syntax error
- NO_ERROR_LOG_FILE: Checked all locations, truly not found
- NO_PHP_ERROR_LOGGED: Error log exists but empty (Apache/config issue)
This should catch most of the 'NO_ERROR_LOG_FILE' cases and
correctly identify them as .htaccess syntax errors.
NEW SCRIPT: modules/website/500-error-tracker.sh
- FAST-ONLY 500 error detection (no menus, no options)
- Scans access logs for 500 errors
- Maps domains to cPanel usernames
- Automatically diagnoses root causes by checking error_log files
- Shows actual PHP errors causing the 500s
ROOT CAUSE DETECTION:
- PHP Memory Exhausted (shows current limit)
- PHP Fatal Errors
- PHP Syntax Errors
- Missing PHP Functions/Extensions
- Database Connection Failures
- .htaccess Issues
- Shows ACTUAL error examples, not just suggestions
FIXES:
- Fixed awk error in website-error-analyzer.sh:
• Changed "next" in END block to "if (length > 0)"
• "next" cannot be used in END block in awk
- Added option 2 in Website Management menu
- Renumbered all WordPress tools (3-16)
DIFFERENCE FROM FULL ANALYZER:
Full Analyzer: All errors, filters, time ranges, user choices
Fast Tracker: ONLY 500s, auto-diagnosis, shows WHY not suggestions
Use Fast Tracker when you need to quickly find which domains
are getting 500 errors and the exact PHP errors causing them.
