FTP & Concole stopped working while rest works fine

[igl00]

I have Debian with DA install. Everythign worked fine till today i runend some heavy script [i had to disable open basedir for it].
While it was running i thought its too heavy so i will stop it - i just closed browser window. Then i couldnt connect to neither site nor console so i rebooted it - still same, turned off and booted again.

DA works fine i can edit/upload file with webbrowser, but i cant get on FTP [nor admin nor any user] nor on console. My ip is not blacklisted so its not that reason.

I have no idea what to do, please help

sounds like your httpd service is not responding.

you can restart this by:

/etc/init.d/httpd restart

@ranz,

He can't do that if he can't get to a console.

@igl00,

I'm not sure why a heavy script would require openbasedir be disabled; perhaps you and I mean different things when we say heavy.

You may need to have someone local to the server log in through the physical console.

If it's the script running then perhaps sometime soon it will finish and you'll get access.

Whenever in the past we've had a similar problem doing a physical reboot of the server solved the problem; I don't know why it hasn't for you.
