You may come across core files which gets generated within your accounts . The possible reason for the core files getting generated is when a php process is killed, apache creates core files under your account .
On phpSuexec servers this may cause due to incorrect php.ini file placed in your account and if it is caused due to php/apache then you can get rid off those core files by editing the httpd startup file on the server end .
Code:
root@server [~]# vi /etc/init.d/httpd
Search for ulimit lines .For eg : you can see these lines
Code:
ulimit -n 1024
ulimit -n 4096
ulimit -n 8192
ulimit -n 16384
You need to add ulimit -c 0 at the end .Which will look like :
Code:
ulimit -n 1024
ulimit -n 4096
ulimit -n 8192
ulimit -n 16384
ulimit -c 0
Save changes and quit.
Now kill / stop apache service and then start apache service on the server .
Code:
root@server [~]# service httpd stop
root@server [~]# service httpd stop
httpd (no pid file) not running
root@server [~]# service httpd startssl
root@server [~]# service httpd startssl
httpd (pid 21154) already running
Finished ...
