2.0.2

Description

Using " quotes in the additional configuration directives field will break everything due to parsing issues in the config. More explanation below.

How to reproduce

I saved a php.ini directive between "" in the "Additional Configuration Directives" field and it didn't give any errors. I did notice that the directive wasn't working properly. A while later, I restarted the instance and while the server was up, cloudpanel or the websites weren't. After trying to manually start nginx it failed with a configuration error which looked like following:

The content of said nginx config:

It's not quite liking the session save path input due to the quotes.

After manually removing that from the nginx config and rebooting nginx, cloudpanel and the website were reachable again.

This is the additional directive configuration I used:

Possible Solution

I would implement better checks in the input field, perhaps replacing all " with '.

Additional Context

No response
