For the past two weeks, I've been getting an automated e-mail sent to the root user from the cron daemon at 7:00pm every day with the message:
newsyslog: can't notify daemon, pid 94751 = /var/run/php-fpm.pid: No such processThe server had been running normally for several months before this with no issues.
To troubleshoot, I've run 'pgrep php-fpm' which lists this:
root@mx:~ # pgrep php-fpm
13033
96069
94756
94755
94754
94753
94752Note, 94751 isn't in the list.
If I look at the contents of /var/run/php-fpm.pid it contains 94751
Restarting php-fpm fails on an error because the address/socket 127.0.0.1:9999 is already in use.
---
root@mx:~ # service php-fpm restart
...
Starting php_fpm.
[ERROR] unable to bind listening socket for address '127.0.0.1:9999': Address already in use (48)
[ERROR] FPM initialization failed
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/php-fpm: WARNING: failed to start php_fpm---
So, to troubleshoot I can do 'killall php-fpm', delete /var/run/php-fpm.pid, then restart php-fpm. This fixes the problem for 1 day, then the automated cron e-mail returns with a new pid #.
crontab doesn't have any newsyslog entries or any tasks that run at 7pm.

I have already updated the php-fpm port to the latest version via FreeBSD ports to see if that helped, but no difference.

All services seem to be working normally, but I'm not sure what will happen if this isn't corrected.
Thanks in advance!
