Jailkit is an easy to use tool to create and maintain jail environments for shell users on Linux. In this guide, I will show you how to move PHP and its dependencies into the jail so that the jailed user can execute PHP scripts inside the jail.
Edit the jailkit .ini file and add a section for PHP at the end of the file
Open the jk_init.ini file with an editor:
nano /etc/jailkit/jk_init.ini
and paste the following lines at the end of the file:
[php] comment = the php interpreter and libraries executables = /usr/bin/php5 directories = /usr/lib/php5, /usr/share/php, /usr/share/php5, /etc/php5, /usr/share/php-geshi, /usr/share/zoneinfo includesections = env [env] comment = environment variables executables = /usr/bin/env
Then run the command:
jk_init -c /etc/jailkit/jk_init.ini -f -k -j /var/www/clients/client1/web1 php
To install PHP and it's dependencies into the jail.
Add PHP for all newly jailed shell users
To add PHP for all newly jailed shell users that you add in ISPConfig, follow these steps:
- Login to ISPConfig and go to System > Server Config
- Select the server and go to the jailkit tab.
- Add the word "PHP" separated by a white space at the end of the "Jailkit chroot app sections" field and press save.
How to add PHP support for jailed SSH users in ISPConfig 3
Thanks for finally talking about > How to add PHP support for jailed SSH users in ISPConfig 3 < Loved it!
Great tutorial, works perfect but I have a problem…
When I use php5 command lots of libraries can’t be loaded, maybe I forgot something…
Example warning:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library ‘/usr/lib/php5/20131226/pdo.so’ – /usr/lib/php5/20131226/pdo.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
I’m using debian 8.
Any idea about how to fix this?
Thanks.
Do not use the [ B ][ / B ] tags around /usr/share/zoneinfo
Example:
directories = /usr/lib/php5, /usr/share/php, /usr/share/php5, /etc/php5, /usr/share/php-geshi, /usr/share/zoneinfo
Also, if you use ioncube, add the path in the directories –
Example:
directories = /usr/lib/php5, /usr/share/php, /usr/share/php5, /etc/php5, /usr/share/php-geshi, /usr/share/zoneinfo, /usr/local/ioncube
You may also need to add /usr/bin/php to the executables section.
Example:
executables = /usr/bin/php5, /usr/bin/php
Thank you for this tweak. Getting crons to work in ISPConfig has been a pain.
Please, update this post without [B] and [/B] at zoneinfo
How does this change when using Ubuntu 16.04 which has php7.0? None of the php5’s are present.
