Kloxo is a free control panel for managing your VPS hosting or dedicated server hosting. Cronjob is scheduling a task to run later. The task can be either command or a script. The background process(daemon) behind the cronjob is the crond. In the /etc folder there is a file called crontab where we can write the command or name of the script that is to be executed at as per our customized time. By using the control panel we can manage the Cron-jobs simply.

Here I am explaining the steps for creating cron-jobs via Kloxo panel.

Step 2 : Click on “Cron Scheduled Task” under the Domain area, see the following screenshot:

Unable to establish a PHP session – PHPMyAdmin error

September 3, 2015 Ashish Kale Error and Solution , PHP, PHPMyAdmin, Website

PHPMyAdmin error :

Do you ever come across the following error when you access PHPMyAdmin from cPanel.

“Access Denied Unable to establish a PHP session. If you believe that this is in error or inadvertent, contact your system administrator and ask them to review your server settings.”

Normally, you will get this error when the permission or ownership of the tmp folder for this user is wrong. That is, make sure the ownership of /home/$username/tmp folder has ownership set to $user and permission as 755. If it is not, you will face the same problem.

Solution :

Step 1 : Login to the server via SSH as root.

Step 2 : Check the permission and ownership of /home/$user/tmp folder.

Step 3 : Set ownership as $user by using following command

# chown $user. /home/$user/tmp

Step 4 : Set permission of the tmp folder to 755 by using following command

#chmod 755 /home/$user/tmp

.

That’s it!!!

$user can be replaced with your respective username.
