Today I rebooted my server and PHP5-FPM failed the start due to /var/run/php5-fpm/ not being found.
The /var/run/ is cleared on reboot and most services recreate their /var/run/ directories on reboot as seen in this SF question. I always assumed that PHP5-FPM created /var/run/php5-fpm/ automatically when restarted and prior restarts have had no problems.
Has PHP5-FPM stopped creating the directory in an update or did it never create the directory anyway? My last reboot before today was over 30 days ago and I did not need to manually create the /var/run/php5-fpm/ directory for that or any previous reboots.
Do I need to add mkdir to my init.d file for php5-fpm, or is there another recommended way? Also, why did this "directory not found" error not happen before?
Other info:
The server is running Debian 7 (Wheezy), Nginx, and MySQL.
/var/run is linked to /run/. /run/ has permissions of 755, owned by root.
Thanks.
