CPanel changed the PHP Handler mode to SuPHP, so an HTTP 500 Error occurred when visiting the page. it was known only after asking the reason, in SuPHP mode, no directory or file with the permission of 777 is allowed. In SuPHP mode. modify php. ini parameter, so if the original. the htaccess file contains a setting starting with php _, which may also generate a 500 error when visiting the webpage.
How can we solve these problems?
First, check whether the directory or file permission is 777 in the file on the website. If yes, change the directory permission to 755 and the file permission to 644. It seems that you only need to execute chmod 644-R * in the webpage directory *. * This can be solved. However, things are not that simple, and such execution is incomplete. Finally, I found the data about how to set the host to SuPHP on the network, we can see more complete and better ways to modify all directories and permissions.
 
Modify directory permissions
Find/home/*/public_html-type d-exec chmod 755 {}\;
 
Modify file permissions
Find/home/*/public_html-type f-exec chmod 644 {}\;
In the above method, you can change the path in find to the path on your host. In fact, it is a very advanced use of find. If not all files on your host need to be set to 644, refer to the method on this webpage.
 
Find/home/*/public_html/-type d-print0 | xargs-0 chmod 0755 # For directories
Find/home/*/public_html/-type f-not-name "*. pl "-not-name "*. cgi "-not-name "*. sh "-print0 | xargs-0 chmod 0644 # For files
As for why should the host be changed from CGI to SuPHP? As mentioned in this article, we can see that the main reason is that SuPHP is highly secure, but its performance is inferior to CGI.
