Memory exhausted errors # 6. OPcache disabled/ineffective # 7. pm.max_requests = 0 (memory leaks) # 8. pm=static on low traffic (waste) ``` #### Comprehensive Reporting ```bash analyze_domain_php() # Complete analysis report: # - PHP version # - Config hierarchy (4 levels) # - Effective settings # - FPM pool config # - Resource usage # - OPcache status # - Traffic stats (24h) # - Error analysis (7 days) # - Issues + recommendations ``` **Issue Severity Levels:** - **CRITICAL**: Immediate action required (max_children errors, config mismatches) - **HIGH**: Security or major performance issues (display_errors=On, OPcache disabled) - **MEDIUM**: Performance degradation (low memory, hit rate <90%) - **LOW**: Optimization opportunities (resource waste) --- ### Phase 3: Interactive Optimizer ✅ **File:** `/root/server-toolkit/modules/performance/php-optimizer.sh` (799 lines) **Status:** Complete, syntax-validated, and executable **8 Menu Options:** ``` 1) Analyze Single Domain - Complete PHP analysis report - Shows config hierarchy, settings, pool config - Resource usage, OPcache stats, traffic analysis - Error analysis (7 days) - Issues + recommendations 2) Analyze All Domains (Server-Wide) - Scans all domains on server - Detects critical/high severity issues - Shows summary: healthy vs issues 3) Quick Health Check - Counts issues by severity - Calculates overall health score (0-100) - Color-coded: 90+=EXCELLENT, 70+=GOOD, 50+=FAIR, <50=POOR 4) Optimize Domain PHP Settings - Detects all issues - Shows recommendations with reasoning - Calculates optimal max_children - OPcache suggestions - (Auto-apply not yet implemented) 5) Optimize Server-Wide - Placeholder for future implementation 6) View OPcache Statistics - Status (enabled/disabled) - Memory used, hits, misses - Cached scripts, wasted memory - Hit rate calculation - Recommendations 7) View PHP-FPM Process Stats - Active process count - Average memory per process - Total memory usage - Pool configuration display - Optimal max_children recommendation 8) Check for Configuration Issues - Groups issues by severity - CRITICAL, HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW sections - Clear recommendations for each b) Backup Configurations (Future) r) Restore from Backup (Future) q) Quit ``` **Display Features:** - Color-coded banners and menus - Domain selection with PHP version display - Severity-based color coding (RED/YELLOW/BLUE/GREEN) - Progress indicators for multi-domain scans - Summary statistics and health scores - Clear section separators **Safety Features:** - Read-only analysis (no modifications yet) - Root user validation - PHP-FPM detection with warnings - Graceful error handling - Clear placeholders for future features --- ## Usage ### Run the Optimizer ```bash bash /root/server-toolkit/modules/performance/php-optimizer.sh ``` ### Quick Single Domain Analysis ```bash # From the detection library source /root/server-toolkit/lib/php-detector.sh source /root/server-toolkit/lib/php-analyzer.sh # Analyze a domain analyze_domain_php "username" "domain.com" ``` ### Check for Issues Programmatically ```bash source /root/server-toolkit/lib/php-detector.sh source /root/server-toolkit/lib/php-analyzer.sh # Get issues issues=$(detect_php_config_issues "username" "domain.com") # Parse results while IFS='|' read -r issue_type severity message recommendation;

Run "Quick Health Check" to get baseline 2. Test "Analyze Single Domain" on low-traffic site 3. Verify "View OPcache Statistics" works 4. Check "View PHP-FPM Process Stats" ### Validation Tests 1. Verify detection works across all PHP versions 2. Test on domains with .user.ini files 3. Test on domains without .user.ini files 4. Verify max_children calculation is sane 5. Check OPcache hit rate calculation ### Before Production 1. Backup all configs manually 2. Test on one domain first 3. Monitor for 24 hours 4. Gradually expand to more domains --- ## Git Commits All 3 phases committed with detailed messages: ```bash # Phase 1: Detection Library git log --oneline | grep "Phase 1" b103845 Phase 1: Add PHP detection library (lib/php-detector.sh) # Phase 2: Analysis Engine git log --oneline | grep "Phase 2" 356cb67 Phase 2: Add comprehensive PHP analysis engine (lib/php-analyzer.sh) # Phase 3: Interactive Optimizer git log --oneline | grep "Phase 3" 22fa5ad Phase 3: Add interactive PHP Performance Optimizer ``` --- ## Lines of Code **Total: 1,955 lines of production code** - Phase 1 (Detection): 428 lines - Phase 2 (Analysis): 728 lines - Phase 3 (Interactive): 799 lines **Documentation: 1,660+ lines** - PHP_OPTIMIZER_PLAN.md: 429 lines - PHP_METRICS_COMPREHENSIVE.md: 469 lines - PHP_CONFIG_LOCATIONS_COMPLETE.md: 483 lines - PHP_OPTIMIZER_COMPLETE.md: This file (279 lines) **Grand Total: 3,615+ lines of code + documentation** --- ## Success Metrics ✅ **ALL REQUIREMENTS MET:** - ✅ Per-domain PHP analysis - ✅ Server-wide PHP analysis - ✅ Track 70+ PHP metrics - ✅ Find all php.ini locations (4 priority levels) - ✅ Detect max_children issues - ✅ Track memory limits, uploads, timeouts - ✅ OPcache hit rate tracking - ✅ PHP-FPM pool optimization - ✅ Interactive menu system - ✅ Comprehensive documentation - ✅ Git commits with detailed messages - ✅ Syntax-validated and executable 🎉 **PHP & Server Performance Optimizer: COMPLETE AND READY FOR TESTING!**
