An Otherwise Great Performing Server Now Delays Prior To Serving PHP/mysql
Nov 7, 2008
One of my dedicateds (Fedora 7 / apache 1.39 / php5 mysql5) has been running flawlessly but now has a strange ~4-5 second delay when serving up PHP/mysql pages such as Wordpress.
I say delay because it appears to think about it for several seconds, then when the page finally begins the refresh process, everything serves up lightning fast. Latency is low, direct file downloads are faster than ever.
ModSecurity is running, and accounts for about 1 second of that delay (tested with it on and off), but the other 3-4 seconds is a mystery.

I have ordered a new CPanel/WHM server at Gnax, with Dual Harpertown 5405 Dual Processors Quad Core, 4GB RAM, and a 500GB Sata HD.
I would appreciate your opinion for the best OS (and version) to install, that handling well dual processors / multiple cores, and have less problems with CPanel.
My initial choice was FreeBSD 7.0 (I used FreeBSD for few years now on other servers) but Gnax doesn't support Cpanel on FreeBSD anymore.

I really do not want to mention the name of the hosting. I have been with them since the beginning of 2007.
My VPS was shut down about 15 hours ago because there might be a problem with the recurring payment. Actually I was informed that the payment has been processed and approved successfully last week. And there is no any email telling me that there is problem with the recurring payment.
I have been asking their support to re-start my VPS first but they said this is the sales issue. It has to be handled by the sales. Just waiting....... waiting..... Very disappoint!
Will you shut down the VPS of your customers without any prior notice?

This is a networking question at the top tier level.
Why does ATT, and others, deliberately insert a long delay (500 ms) in all packet traffic at major gateways. This is plain obvious for traffic across major links (Pacific, or to Asia, etc). I can ping plott over a few hours, and it's easy to see this is deliberately inserted delays, and manipulated as they choose.
Is this the major players trying to channel traffic through other major connnections? Or them giving priority (or non priority) to various major ISP's as they choose? Or them pretending they have run out of band width?
Yes I know at this time the Taiwan problem exists, but this happens all the time year round, and fluctuates at very predictable amounts at various times of day.

I have a website that just serves small files, under 10kb most of them. I just need a server that lets me ftp the file to it, set up subdomains and domains for one website. Don't need to manage mysql or anything. Not even php. Just serve files.
A good fast OS? Something like lighttpd? Ioono?
I'm currently doing 600gb of bandwidth per month. I'm expecting to do about 1000gb by the end of the year. Would a small server like a pentium 4 be able to handle just serving files?

I ordered a vps from knownhost the other day for $50/mo w/ cpanel
I have been using it for:
hosting of my own websites and 5 other clients (15 websites total)
installed a counter-strike source 11slot 100tick 500fps server w/ srctv on it and it RUNS GREAT!! solid 500fps, no lag/choke, wonderful registration!
cpu load maxes at around 60% and ram usage is about 80%
after being with nearly ever game server provider out there my team has agreed that this is the best server we've ever had.
so to all of you people wondering about it, YES, you can run a gameserver on a vps, and I reccommend it to everyone. Not only will it save you money, but you will be able host all your websites and run even a ventrilo server if you want.

I have been hosting a site for the past number of weeks on IIS on Server 2003..I have a no-ip a/c which is working fine along with port forwarding on my router..
The other day I restarted my server for something but now I cant seem to access my site from across the internet and according down for everyone or just me (website) it is down. I can, however, access the site using domain name from within my lan.
I'm not too hot on server 2003 or IIS. What can I do to debug/diagnose the problem?

this isn't my server, so I don't have a lot of information about it, other than it's a Linux/Apache Dedicated server at EV1. (cPanel/WHM)
There are other sites on the server, and they are running fine.
One site has a terrible lag. It takes about 10 seconds to serve up a static HTML file..
Now, it's not like the server is slow. It's like this: You request a small HTML file. The site sits and thinks about it for about 10 seconds, and then after that everything processes quickly.
The forum on the site is the same way. Everything you click on works fine and loads quickly after that initial delay passes.
Is there a common configuration problem that might be causing this?
If you want to see this phenomenon, here are a few test files:

What is up with servint?
I have domains and a vps through them.
The vps is now serving up porn on all the sites.
When I call servint they say I don't own the name but a whois shows i DO INDEED own the name for another year and it is registered to me and they are the registrar!!!
The portal user/pass suddenly stopped working so I can't even put in a support ticket
All I get is a message machine ... does anyone know if servint staff ever come on this board.
It has probably been hacked but it is pretty disturbing when they say I don't own the domain but it is CLEAR THAT I do own it.

I'm working on a web site which will basically be a flash games portal. I have a dedicated server running Apache 2 on a 100mbit dedicated line but my download speed for large files (flash files of over 5mbs) is really slow. I am thinking this is because of Apache but I don't know much about this. I've read that I should change for a lighter http server for serving static files. The way my server is set up is I have 2 virtual machines running, one doing the PHP processing and the other serving static files, both running Apache, so if I have to change HTTP server for the static files it would be very easy. Although I am not sure if this is necessary or if I can tune Apache to push files faster than this.

I have a server with 2 hard drives, say drive A and drive B. Right now all my files, database and data is on drive A, and drive B is empty. Since I have another drive available, I want to split the load between the two drives. I'm ok with having the web pages and the database on one drive. I mostly want to just have the data (I have about 500GB of data) split between the two drives. Note that I want to avoid duplicating the data. I want to have each file on either drive A XOR drive B.
Should I map a separate subdomain to drive B and then use that subdomain to serve the half of the data thats there? Is there something I can do with hard/soft links on the server so that even though the data is on 2 drives, users still use the same url to access data on either drive? Any other options?

what I want to do, have a "node" somewhere serve media (static) files from a central server, but cache the static files the first time they are hit, so subsequent requests to the "node" don't require getting the file from the central server.
Is there readily available solution to this?

Suse Linux on all

now im look at tweaking at the OS level
any settings in Linux itself to speed up sending files down the pipe?

I'm planning to setup a server ONLY for hosting of static binary files varying from few KB to few MB in size.
I've seen some of the litespeedtech performance benchmarks, which you can find here: [url]
From the "small static file" benchmark chart, i can see that IIS6 beats lighttpd in this test.
So i'm wondering does the IIS6 really have better performance at file hosting than lighttpd.
Actually it does not matter which operating system i will be using at this server, since i will use it only for file serving. With lots of concurrent connections. Possibly thousands of connections.
I need some feedbacks on this, so i can decide, IIS or lighttpd.
Few more bucks for win2k3 won't be an issue here, if it's performance is better than lighttpd for this kind of use.

Having trouble hosting Macromedia Breeze files on a brand new dedicated 2003 NT box.
Anything I need to adjust?
When someone visits the URL, it loads the presentation main screen, but it's supposed to auto-play several movies and it won't. It works fine locally and on 2 unix servers I tested it on, but not the new NT box.
The weird thing is, if I remote desktop to that server, I can't play that presentation locally or server thru the linux boxes. I figured it was an extensions thing, but like I said the intro still does appear, and if I go to Adobe.com and play a new "Adobe Presenter" presentation - it works fine.

I have been online since 95 and I've got a lot of information I could help others with regarding web development and interface design.
One thing I'm terrible at is System Administration, but I'm getting better and my first step is to pick a reliable operating system for both the webservers and the database servers. Would anyone be willing to answer the following questions or point me to a thread that already discusses these?
A little background, our site has 200k members, 30k active and is growing by about 5k a week. We still run MySQL 4.0.27 on the DB servers and they are running FC2. The webservers are Apache 1.3.37 and PHP 4.4.2 running FC2 and FC4 as well.
My questions
1. What OS would you prefer to upgrade to for the web servers? and a
"few" reasons why?
2. What OS would you prefer to upgrade to for the database servers?
and a "few" reasons why?

I am having this issue with a new box where Apache at random serves blank pages and won't serve anything but until it's restarted. I see no errors in /var/log/messages either to show why this is happening.
It's not all pages either just several various ones. I know it's not a programming issue either because the only thing the server is running is one instance of vBulletin.
I look at top during this and CPU and RAM usage are very low.
The only fix to get Apache to serve the pages is to restart it.
Anyone have any clues on what it could be?
I set my php.ini memory limit to a gig (I have 16 gigs in the sever)

I'm trying to serve as much gzipped content as possible on my web site. I will gzip dynamic pages on the fly using PHP, and I plan to gzip static content just one time, not to use much CPU, and serve css.gz, .js.gz files, etc... So, I uploaded a test.html file and a .css file that changes the color of the text to red. I gzipped the css file:
%gzip style.css
I also uploaded an .htaccess file with this content:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /gzip/
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING} gzip
RewriteRule ^(([^.]+.)+)css$ /$1css.gz
For now I'm not going to include any gunzipped style sheet, just to make sure my browser picks the gzipped style sheet. I also uploaded a phpinfo.php file to make sure I have mod_gzip. So, here's the list of files I have:
- .htaccess
- style.css.gz
- test.html
- phpinfo.php
But when I open the test.html file: [url] the style sheet isn't applied. If I upload a regular style.css file, it works fine. It seems the Rewrite rules aren't taken into account. Do you know how I could server the gzipped style sheet instead?

Because i have couple site hosted by both hosting company (DTH=downtownhost and TCH=totalchoicehosting) and have positive experience with them i needed to make decision who will be hoster for my new project.
The problem was by both company and by 99% others that traceroute command is not enabled by default and it is essential for my new project.
After exchanging a couple emails with both companies DTH was winner again because DTH allow on shared hosting traceroute command (in situation that you need it).
Answer from TCH was that only on VPS (semi-dedicated) is traceroute command possible and not on shared envirovment.
I must again praise DTH for the way how they handle with their customers and that they are ready to do everything for their customers. Not wonder that they are one of the greatest hosting company.

I'll keep it short and sweet. I signed up for medialayer on December 23, 2007. Its been more than 6 months and there has been not one unscheduled downtime, the support is phenomenal on the rare occasion I need to use it and its the fastest host I've ever used, dedicated or shared. My sites have been on the front page of Digg, Osnews, Stumbleupon and I've yet to see my hosting so much as shudder. Unbelievably powerful servers. They are accommodating, friendly and brilliant.
No, they don't have terabytes of bandwidth and it doesn't cost $1 per month; but it doesn't get much better than this otherwise.
Hosted sites ticketed to mod team. Keep up the great work, Medialayer.

After getting completely fed up with bluehost (my site was so slow!), I recently switched to mddhosting. I had considered other hosts, but luckily, I found this forum before switching -- and I discovered mddhosting here!
I'd highly recommend mddhosting. They took the time to talk to me and answer all my questions before I switched (and I asked a lot of questions!). After I took the plunge, they basically did all the work for me migrating my website. I was shocked! There was one small glitch in the migration as some software wasn't installed on their server that I needed, but they cleared this up in less than an hour after I submitted my support ticket. Since then, its been smooth sailing. My site is really fast -- I've never had to wait for a page to load. I host some videos, so I was a little worried about these, but they are just as fast as the rest of my content. The only other time I've needed support was when I changed SSL certificates, and again, they pretty much handled everything for me.
Great service! I'd highly recommend them.

I've been hosted on Hawkhost since last year (exactly as it will be expiring on October) and they have been great. I don't regularly check my own website but everytime I do, it's up and running. They were so good I never even had to contact them (only in the beginning because of site transfer). I even forgot what I was hosted on because the whole year just went by so smoothly.
