Exception error when logging in to Plesk (permission denied)

regisg

Regular Pleskian
Hello,

After a stupid CHMOD -R apache:apache on my server (...), I had to reinstall Plesk (12.5.30) with "plesk repair installation".
That was successfull except Restoring SELinux contexts => Starting kavehost : Failed

Unfortunately, i am now unable to loggin in Plesk :

Internal error: Lock Manager error: 'Permission denied'.
Message Lock Manager error: 'Permission denied'.
File Hierarchical.php
Line 120
Type Plesk\Lock\Exception

Then, i tried a lot of solutions :

https://talk.plesk.com/threads/help-needed-permission-denied-after-upgrade-11-to-12.336131/
... no success :-(

I noticed that : http://screenpresso.com/=p42ig ... I wonder if it's OK with regards to permissions ?

Thanks a lot for your help.
 
Make sure that you have correct permission for /var/lock:

# stat /var/lock
File: `/var/lock'
Size: 4096 Blocks: 8 IO Block: 4096 directory
Device: 3c90b621h/1016116769d Inode: 393263 Links: 7
Access: (0775/drwxrwxr-x) Uid: ( 0/ root) Gid: ( 54/ lock)

and as result of wrong permissions lockmamanger will not be able to operate required directory `/var/lock/lmlib/container_locks`
