I am trying to install Elastic search, Nginx, Kibana and Sense.
I am following this guide:
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-elasticsearch-logstash-and-kibana-elk-stack-on-ubuntu-14-04
I successfully installed Elastic search.
However I am stuck at Kibana.
I successfully followed all steps however:
root#dev:~# service kibana start
kibana started
root#dev:~# service kibana status
kibana is not running
When I run kibana service it says it started, and after that when I want to check if kibana is running, it says it is not running.
If more details are needed for this question to be answered, comment and I will provide it.
Use curl localhost:5601 to test if kibana is really working.
If not working , go to etc/kibana/ to modify the config to check if host is 0.0.0.0 and port is 5601
And the other problem is that your server'memories are not enough for kibana starting.
Hope you can provider the kibana log.
try use:
journalctl -u kibana.service
to show the log.
Even I was facing the same issue.
I have installed the latest version of kibana ( Version: 5.0.2) which is dowloaded from this site:
https://www.elastic.co/downloads/kibana
And I have installed the Elasticsearch of version ( 5.0.2)
I used the below site:
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/zip-targz.html
It worked for me.
Thanks.
If you have installed older version of kibana or using nginx to wrap to kibana then the following command will not work
service kibana start
To start or stop service, instead of the above, use the following command:
systemctl start kibana.service
It seems like the Kibana process failed to start or execute. (I would reckon it is an issue with the kibana.yml file.) You can see why in the Kibana log output. However, Kibana doesn't have a log file by default. You can set it up using the log_file Kibana server property.
Have a look here: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/kibana-server-properties.html

I have a VPS hosting with a domain redirecting to it.
I have LAMP stack for my main website using WordPress CMS.
Plus I am using Odoo as my back-end with python and PostgreSQL in a sub-domain.
Everything was working fine until I installed Certbot Let’s Encrypt to obtain an SSL certificate by following these tutorials
For My Wordpress i installed this plugin:
WP Encryption – One Click single / wildcard Free SSL certificate & force HTTPS
Which got me in a loop because it forced the https i will explain it later on
So when the plugin didn't work i searched for another way for the whole VPS with these tutorials:
How To Secure Apache with Let's Encrypt on Ubuntu 16.04
How To Secure Apache with Let's Encrypt on Ubuntu 18.04
After completing the second tutorial for ubuntu 18.04 i noticed that all my domain traffic is going to https and it got stuck in a loop saying same as i said above
"ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS which means Site redirected too many times"
and couldn't access the website front-end for the wordpress in the doamin.
Then when i applied
"Step 3 — Allowing HTTPS Through the Firewall"
my internet connection got interpreted and when i got back to the ssh session i found my self locked out of the server and did not find any way to get back in.
And when i tired to use the sub-domain that has Odoo on it i have got the same error
"ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS which means Site redirected too many times"
Until here i was hopeless and did't know what to do.
I contacted my VPS server provider and told him about what exactly happened. Then some how he managed to get me into the server again with a URL to the terminal i still couldn't access the server using ssh clients like putty.. so when i entered the server after he provided me with the URL first thing noticed is that he "rebooted the VPS" will get to this in a second.
So first thing i did was removing the wordpress plugin "WP Encryption" and update the wordpress site-url in wp_options table in mysql database because the plugin changed it from http to https so i changed it back and that solved the ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS for my wordpress website.
Then the second thing i did was disabling the ufw firewall that i enabled in the tutorial in Step 3 above.
I instantly got my connection to the server back using ssh client putty but what i have noticed again is the postgres service was inactive and went down with the reboot of the VPS. i tried to start the service but it didn't a gave me this error.
Failed to start postgresql.service: Unit postgresql.service is masked.
i searched for a solution and found these commands to unmask
sudo systemctl unmask postgresql
sudo systemctl enable postgresql
sudo systemctl restart postgresql
and then the service has started and everything sames OK when i run the status command
service postgresql status
the response is

after many searches i made i found the posgres main cluster is also inactive or down i tried to start it with this command

but i get this error

I guessed Let's Encrypt added an ssl configuration to the pg_hba.conf and postgres.conf like id did with apache so i searched for them and commented the "ssl on" lines and restarted postgres service along with the main cluster but nothing happened still the the same error which is
Error: Could not find pg_ctl executable for version 11
I know i shouldn't run pg_ctl directly under Ubuntu/Debian. I must use pg_ctlcluster instead, which is installed by postgresql-common. I saw the main page documentation. But when i run "sudo pg_ctlcluster 11 main reload" command i always get the above Error telling me that he could not find pg_ctl executable
I have searched a lot for this problem but nothing worked how can i solve the pg_ctl executable in version 11 ??
Ps:
I am using Ubuntu 19.10 (GNU/Linux 5.3.0-24-generic x86_64)
Odoo 11 with postgres 11 as the database odoo can't connect to postgres as i mentioned before
edit:
Unfortunately i can't do a restore or recover the server to fix postgres package because my last backup of the server was on 19/3 and today is 26/3 i have an important data between this period
Update 27/3/2020 4:06 AM
I compared my last server backup with the production server and found a lot of postgres files missing!! like int this path /usr/lib/postgres/11/ and /etc/postgres/11/ i think postgres some how got damaged and lost some files in the reboot of the server >>> but found the data files of the database located in /var/lib/postgres/11/ <<< Can i read them in my backup server ? i will try and let you know
So finally after a hours of digging
All PostgreSQL files where damaged and missing and i lost hope of repairing them i don't know what caused that but it has a relation with the accidental reboot of the server.
So i managed to find the main cluster data file for my important database information for the production server in this path
/var/lib/postgres/11/
and i took a backup from it by zipping the whole folder using this command
zip -r main.zip main/
then i did a full purge and reinstall for postgres usuing these commands from here
apt-get --purge remove postgresql\*
to remove everything PostgreSQL from your system. Just purging the postgres package isn't enough since it's just an empty meta-package.
Once all PostgreSQL packages have been removed, run:
rm -r /etc/postgresql/
rm -r /etc/postgresql-common/
rm -r /var/lib/postgresql/
userdel -r postgres
groupdel postgres
Then i installed postgres with this command to match odoo11
sudo apt-get install postgresql libpq-dev -y
then creating the ODOO PostgreSQL User
sudo su - postgres -c "createuser -s odoo" 2> /dev/null || true
Now everything is okay odoo should work fine but you still don't have any database
So to bring back the backup from the cluster folder we took earlier we need to move the zip file to the same directory we took it from which is
/var/lib/postgres/11/
but before that you should stop postgres service
sudo systemctl stop postgresql
and make sure it has stopped
sudo systemctl status postgresql
after that rename the main cluster that postgres uses right now because its empty and we don't need it because we are replacing it with our backed up cluster
mv /var/lib/postgres/11/main /var/lib/postgres/11/main_old
then move the zip file from where you backed it up to the postgres cluster folder with this command
mv /backups/main.zip /var/lib/postgres/11/
unzip the folder in the same path by using this command
unzip -a /var/lib/postgres/11/main.zip
after unzipping the folder give the ownership to your postgres user and group
chown -R postgres:postgres main
Then you are good to go. Start Postgres service
sudo systemctl start postgresql
sudo systemctl status postgresql
and make sure you also start the main cluster service
pg_ctlcluster 11 main start
if you stopped odoo make sure to start it also
service odoo-server start
Ps: I solved ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS for the odoo sub-domain by commenting ssl configurations in my odoo.config Apache2 virtual host that lets encrypt updated before and everything got back to where left it before installing lets encrypt.
I guess i will leave it here and won't use ssl in production again till i figure out how to use it in a test server .. thanks for your time i hope my question and answer helps someone in the future
Try adding 'pg_path' in your odoo configuration file.
Like: pg_path = /path/to/postgresql/binaries
Generally '/usr/lib/posrgresql/11/bin' is the binary directory.
We are trying to setup a Single Node Kaa server(version 0.10.0) in an Ubuntu 16.04 machine.
Followed the documentation given here
We were unable to connect to the admin UI after starting the kaa node service.
On investigating further we could see that the Mongodb and zookeeper services were not started. So we manually started those services. After that we were able to connect to Kaa admin UI. Do we need any additional steps to get these service running on kaa-node start ?
I setup kaaproject with the guide for my Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS VM and Zookeeper was not running by default on my server also, so I had to install the deamon (which starts zookeeper also on startup):
sudo apt-get install zookeeperd
Check if zookeeper is running:
netstat -ntlp | grep 2181
This should result in an output like this:
With mongodb I had the problem, that there was not enough space available for the journal files. I fixed this by increasing the available disk space + setting smallfiles=true in the /etc/mongod.conf
Probably you have some troubles with configurations for services. Check if auto-startup is enabled for MongoDB / Zookeeper by the next command:
$ systemctl is-enabled ${service-name}
if you see this:
$ disabled
then auto-startup is disabled for specified service and you should try next in order to enable it:
$ systemctl enable ${service-name}
I am working on facebook messenger.
Facebook app only accept one url for webhook but ngrock is generating new URL every time. Now I am unable to test my app because of webhook URL changed.
UPDATE May 2020
Serveo is up and running again! No installation, no signup!
All you need to do is to run this:
ssh -R <unique subdomain>:80:<your local host>:<your local port> serveo.net
like
ssh -R youruniquesubdomain:80:localhost:8000 serveo.net
UPDATE January 2020
Since there are some issues with Serveo and localtunnel, I want to share with you another free ssh-based self-hosting service: Localhost.run
Unfortunately, it does not provide unique subdomains but it is ssh-based so you do not have to install additional applications. Still waiting for Serveo coming back.
UPDATE April 2018
I've found Serveo just now! And it is totally incredible!
UPDATE November 2017
Probably, it is not the best option for you but I started using localtunnel instead of ngrok.
An installation and run flow is very simple:
npm install -g localtunnel
lt --port <your localhost port> --subdomain youruniquesubdomain
Then I can go to my http://youruniquesubdomain.localtunnel.me
That's it!
No more free subdomain support from ngrok.....pls have a error as below
Tunnel session failed: Only paid plans may bind custom subdomains.
Failed to bind the custom subdomain 'arvindpattartestfb.ngrok.io' for the account 'arvccccc'.
This account is on the 'Free' plan.
Upgrade to a paid plan at: https://dashboard.ngrok.com/billing/plan
ERR_NGROK_313
You need to set up auth token. You can find it here https://dashboard.ngrok.com/auth. (W̶o̶r̶k̶s̶ ̶w̶i̶t̶h̶ ̶f̶r̶e̶e̶ ̶v̶e̶r̶s̶i̶o̶n̶,̶ ̶n̶o̶ ̶n̶e̶e̶d̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶p̶a̶y̶ it's now paid feature, see ngrok pricing).
Then you can use it like this:
ngrok http 80 --subdomain yoursubdomain
Neither localtunnel.me or Serveo are working for me right now so I created a temporary solution that works for some use-cases including mine (react-native local development): using the ngrok npm package one can save the generated ngrok url into a json file, and that file can be read for any other app.
First make sure to install ngrok using npm install ngrok then use this node script:
const ngrok = require('ngrok');
const fs = require('fs').promises;
(async function() {
const url = await ngrok.connect(3000);
const api = ngrok.getApi();
let data = await api.get('api/tunnels');
data = JSON.parse(data);
let dict = {'domain': data.tunnels[0].public_url}
await fs.writeFile("config.json", JSON.stringify(dict));
console.log("saved " + data.tunnels[0].public_url);
})();
Then from your app you may read it using code similar or equal to:
const backend = require('./config.json').domain;
For DHIS2 local installation, I did this on the terminal on ubuntu server.
Make sure your web is running on the specified port. Mine was on 8080.
ssh -R dani.serveo.net:80:localhost:8080 serveo.net
The beauty of this serveo.net is you can reuse the same hostname prefix url before serveo.net as many time as you want, even if power goes off or internet diconnection.
Staqlab tunnel is providing domain for free. Its works great but need a binary to be downloaded from there website. Using this service for month without any hassle
In 2022 (almost 2023) pagekite.me works for me.
It is very similar to ngrok, and requires the installation of pagekite.py (and, obviously Python).
After installation click on pagekite.py opens pagekite shell.
Run command: 8080 subdomain.pagekite.me
I noticed that no one mentioned how to have static ngrok urls, which was the main question about.
A way to do it is to edit the ngrok.yml file, which is located at
Linux: "~/.config/ngrok/ngrok.yml"
MacOS (Darwin): "~/Library/Application Support/ngrok/ngrok.yml"
Windows: "%HOMEPATH%\AppData\Local\ngrok\ngrok.yml"
You can have content such as:
version: "2"
authtoken: valid_auth_token
tunnels:
first-app:
addr: 3000
proto: http
hostname: yourfixedngrok_id1.ngrok.io
second-app:
addr: 8000
proto: http
hostname: yourfixedngrok_id2.ngrok.io
This will help you expose multiple ports, and have a persisted url for each of which based on the value you set for hostnames.
After that, you run your ngrok using this command:
ngrok start --all
Though its not a solution but take it as workaround, I had the same problem while testing. What i did is keep the ngrok running with my http port, so my ngrok url is not changing. but I frequently changing and restarting my server for testing and debugging.
What is the proper way to run Kibana 4.5 as service on CentOS 7?
When I run it as ./kibana, I can conenct to it form another machine without any problem. When I run it with systemctl start kibana and check with ps -ef | grep '.*node/bin/node.*src/cli'it looks like running but refuses to connect. And goes down. What can be the problem? Thanks in advance.
Here is content of kibana.service file
[Unit]
Description=no description given
[Service]
Type=simple
User=kibana
Group=root
Environment=CONFIG_PATH=/opt/kibana/config/kibana.yml
ExecStart=/opt/kibana/bin/kibana
Restart=always
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
I am not that much of a linux expert but i recently installed kibana using yum (https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/4.5/setup.html#kibana-yum) on a minimal installation of CentOS 7 and did not face any issues whatsoever.
In order to have some debug logs and find out what is wrong in your case, edit the kibana configurations file
/opt/kibana/config/kibana.yml
and set a filename for the logging.dest property.
logging.dest: /var/log/kibana.log
Good luck
Igor,
I noticed a few questions you posted on Kafka so sounds like you need to set up a cluster that can ingest data and pass to Elastic. Kibana would be just user interface.
In my experience, components like ELK, Kafka, Zookeeper, etc should be managed by a watchdog process. I highly recommend looking at something like supervisord. http://supervisord.org/
You should run it as a service and the rest managed by the supervisor. It will guarantee starting components at boot but whats more important restart in case of failure and collecting logs. In case of Kibana, it is a NodeJS app that writes to stdout/stderr so to know what fails, you need to collect them.
I have Gitlab 8.6 running on an Ubuntu 14.04 server that seems to have gotten messed up. I consistently get a 502 error when accessing the site. The server likely has not been restarted since installing Gitlab initially, and a power outage caused the server to reboot. Now, I cannot start/restart Gitlab due to what appears to be port conflicts.
I installed Gitlab via source, I don't have any custom port configurations, and am using NGINX. nginx -t shows that the configuration appears to be correct syntax-wise.
When I run netstat -tupln, I see that Unicorn & a Gitlab instance is already running on :8080 and :80 respectively at boot up. I suspect that a 2nd instance of Gitlab was installed which is being run at boot and that is causing the proper instance to have port conflicts when I try to run it via service gitlab restart. I'm not even sure if that's possible, but I can't seem to figure out where to go from here. Every time I run sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure or service gitlab start, it fails and the unicorn.stderror.log shows bind errors to the :8080 port. I tried moving the Unicorn service to :8081 as well, but I still receive the port binding error.
Does anyone know how I can detect if there are multiple Gitlab instances running, and maybe if there is a way to remove a duplicated one if it's possible? Thank you!
EDIT: Here is what is in the /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb file. Everything else is commented out.
## Url on which GitLab will be reachable
external_url 'http://my-gitlab-instance.domain.com'
EDIT 2: My /home/git/gitlab/ directory is mapped to https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce.git, and is on the 8-7-stable branch. gitlab-shell and gitlab-workhorse are on the correct versions according to https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/doc/update/8.6-to-8.7.md
EDIT 3: I have gotten to a point where the Gitlab seems to self-check okay by removing the gitlab-ce package (https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/issues/135), but the server returns a 404. NGINX, Unicorn, Sidekiq, and gitlab-workhorse all say that they're running. I see that unicorn.rb is listening on :8080, and nginx is listening on 0.0.0.0:80 and :::80. I guess now I'm troubleshooting this 404 and hopefully I will be back to my install-from-source.
What I have found is that there were 2 issues causing the errors I had.
First, I removed a "gitlab-ce" package that was installed, following the instructions here: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/issues/135. For some reason, when I restart the machine now I have to restart these services, in order, for Gitlab to run properly redis-server, gitlab, nginx. However, Gitlab does start responding properly after that.
Second, the 404 error was due to a different server that was also listening on that IP address, causing a conflict.
I will likely move to using the omnibus package on a fresh, new server going forward, but at least the immediate issues appear resolved. Thanks for your help, SLY!
