I am also seeing similar issue "AH02001: Connection closed to child with standard shutdown "
Following are the version information
Server: Apache/2.4.6 (Unix) OpenSSL/1.0.2a
I get "502 Bad Gateway" errors in browser and found this in logs:
- upstream prematurely closed connection while reading response header from upstream
- failed (111: Connection refused) while connecting to upstream
restarting Apache solves the problem temporarily.I tried tweaking both nginx and php-fpm config files without success.
I do a ps aux, and get a bunch of:
/usr/sbin/httpd
Each one takes up like 4% of the available ram - and when the ram is gone, the server dies (it doesn't have a swap file - half the time you can't even log in to it), and you have to reboot Apache.
I thought of limiting maxchilds, but would that break something else?
Should I just make a swap file? Will that defeat the point of creating child processes?
how Litespeed Standard (free) edition compares to apache. Of course it's not as good as the paid version, but I'm wondering how the free version compares to Apache.

I would really like to be able to access FTP so I can work on a client's website... is there anything I can do to make this work? I don't know that much about it, but maybe there's some way to allow FileZilla to use the open browser port?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have just moved my sites from shared host to a vps. After several initial problems (cpanel issue, config not set up correctly, memory spikes and sites down every morning due to backup and stats) I thought everything was going to be ok. hmm.
My server load starts off fine first thing (less than 1) then creeps up nearly 1 per hour, ie been 3.5 hours now and it is at 2.57. Sites are ok at the moment but yesterday load got up to nearly 7 and sites were extremely slow.
CPU usage is HIGH for one site and goes up very quickly throughout the day. Yesterday it reached well over 90%. First thing today it was already amber and showing 14%. It is now 70.54% and shows below it :
Top Process %CPU 80.2 spamd child
Top Process %CPU 79.8 spamd child
Top Process %CPU 79.4 spamd child
I have a ticket open and they (Liquid Web) they are not sure what the deal is, but are apparently monitoring it to see if they can isolate the cause of the problem. But that was a couple of days ago and now the ticket is due for closure.
I telephoned them (expensive as I'm in the UK!) and raised my concerns, but was just told that everything looked ok on the vps, cpu usage was in fact not high and to ignore the warnings.
So, I am posting here to see if anybody can help me get to the root of this.
I understand that spamd child is to do with email / spam assassin?
My problem is that this is the first vps I have had and don't have a clue now where to go or what to do.
Anybody understand about spamd child that can explain it to a poor dumb blonde and how to fix it?
Server down after start apache! Too many connection!
When im start apache on server, its crashed.
I am see following error, in access log:
Where is issue and how can fix it?

It seems that, since Plesk 12.x, many usual ports are now closed by default (ex. port mysql 3306, port 9000...)
Clients are not informed...
how can we re-open these ports ?
Recently the Apache recompailed with eAccelerator after that the below error log has created and also the Apache got crash when reach high traffic.

Due to this problem I ran the /scripts/upcp --force and again recompailed the Apache with eAccelerator.
later the signal Segmentation fault error not created but instead of above error the following error has been creating. And also again recompailed the without eAccelerator still the below error creating.

I recently logged into my Windows Server 2003 OS Server via Remote Desktop and was met with a message/box saying Why did this computer shutdown. It had a dropdown field for a reason and then empty text fields for Problem ID and Comment.
What steps can I take to figure out what happened?
Server is a fresh install of Win Server 2003
So justgotvps.com gives me a pageload error, and now when I go to any of my (many) domains that are hosted on JustGotVPS I get some "Close my sale for me" BS site?
I can't SSH/Telnet into my VPS anymore (connection refused). Did I just get scammed for 6 months worth of fees? Time to reverse the charges; I'm more pissed because I just got set up there and I don't have a recent backup with the new configuration...
I have a very perplexing problem. Like clockwork, every 7 days I find my Windows 2003 server to be unresponsive. I use remote desktop to login to find that it has unexpectedly shutdown. The even code is 6008 and I researched it through the MS link and it says it can be cause by unplugging the power cord or manually rebooting the server through a switch. Is it possible the UPS at my host has my server on some sort of timer that automatically kills the power once a week? There aren't any scheduled tasks to reboot it, and this is a fresh install as far as I know.

Even if I set relaying to closed, disable message submission and disable sendmail spam is still being send..
Outgoing mail control reports nothing at all, and if I check my server with online tools to be sure it is not relaying everything is reported fine.
I have seen 1 vps provider having very poor ping results in few online ping sites and they have a very cluster slow loading pages as well.
One of my friend has a package with them, the ping results are very poor even for him as well. Just made an traceroute found its on some node1.vpsprovider.com
Ya, one more major important similarity noticed was, the vps provider emails weren't set properly to yahoo mail, and my friend's emails sent from the server to yahoo weren't delivered as well.
So if the vps provider has poor content may be due to firewall or internal settings do the systems under the node also be affected?
I have no problems with my host so nothing to be worried about, but need to help him as he is just starting it out with a cheaper vps
"Too many open files: couldn't spawn child process"
"Too many open files: couldn't spawn child process". This is what I see in the logs.
I have a CGI application which I can't run anymore because it is giving me a 500 Internal Server Error.
Would disabling the logging on all domains solve this issue? (thinking that too many log files are opened)
I did: cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max and in return I got: 372235.
Then I did echo 350000 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max*, because I thought I have file system limitation or something like that.
The problem starts even right after I reboot the server.
If I hit lsof a lot of files are shown.
The server load is tiny so nothing actually happens.
Would editing the httpd.conf or my.cnf files help ? Should I post the prefork and MPM settings here?
What else should I do to have my CGI application running again?

Apparently, there are two files on my website that are being hit quite a bit, and causing the server to slow down. (I admit, its a busy site, and the files are very big).
The files aren't new there, and neither is the traffic, but the plug was pulled with no warning what so ever, and no offer of remediation on their part beyond refunding the remaining portion of my contract (I would hope so too!).
I can understand that they may not be able to continue to host my site due to the volume of traffic it generates, but they really could have handled this much better.
How can i remove "Connection and keep-alive" from response headers ? I am using Apache http server to load balance two tomcat nodes
Apache Server- Apache/2.4.2
mod_jk - 1.2.27
Apache tomcat - Apache Tomcat/7.0.23
JDK - 1.6
I have also enabled SSL in the apache http server using mod_ssl. The load balancing works fine, but in all the response headers these connection attributes are added "Connection: keep-alive keep-alive: timeout=5"
Is there a way to remove these headers? I do not want these headers to be added in the response. I have also tried mod_header to unset these headers, but no use. HTTP/1.1 protocol is being used, so eventhough the connection is not present in the header, the connection would should be considered as persistent. Why is apache sending these attributes explicitly in each response. I just want to get rid of these attribute...
We are hosting a Git server (using Gitolite v3). Our users are interacting with git over an https connection. Here's the relevant versions of software:
Apache 2.4.6
OpenSSL 1.0.1e-fips
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.5 (Santiago)
git version 1.8.5.3 (Server Side)
git version 1.9.2.msysgit.0 (Client Side)
Users sometimes encounter an SSL error message when attempting to run git commands that talk to the server (e.g. clone, push, pull). The error message is "Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to servername:443". Users can usually simply try the command again, and it will then work successfully.
I've managed to capture a bit more output by setting the GIT_CURL_VERBOSE flag, see output below.
Code:
* Couldn't find host servername in the _netrc file; using defaults
* Adding handle: conn: 0x2587c40
* Adding handle: send: 0
* Adding handle: recv: 0
* Curl_addHandleToPipeline: length: 1

I'm running CentOS with Paralells Plesk bundled Paralellls Premium Antivirus (Dr Web). After the latest yum updates DrWeb continously seems to crash and be restarted by the Parallells watchdog. By default there were no logs for DrWeb, but when I enable logging to a file it gets spammed continously with the following error:
Cannot create pipe for communication with scanning childs (Too many open files)and the Drweb process runs at 99% CPU for long periods. This totally fills the disk with logs and I've now disabled logging again and Drweb is back to continously being restarted by the watchdog.
I am a SolarVPS customer. So far, I have been really happy with their service - setup was very smooth, I had to contact support a couple of times at the start and they were really quick, and otherwise I've had simply no problems.
I was alerted yesterday to the fact that my site was down. I immediately logged into the box, and found that Apache and MySQL had stalled. I restarted them, and everything was ok. So then I started to look into the problem.
Then I noticed this in my logs:
Sep 3 23:07:26 myvps shutdown[26281]: shutting down for system halt
Sep 3 23:08:41 myvps exiting on signal 15
Sep 4 03:14:22 myvps syslogd 1.4.1#18: restart.
It seems that my VPS was shut down for 4 hours and then brought back up. My Apache and MySQL didn't come back up properly after the restart (ok, my fault here, a configuration issue), so I was down for about 17 hours.
Anyway, I didn't do this shutdown, and I don't think my box was hacked and someone else did it, because even if they did, by my reasoning, it wouldn't have been down for 4 hours.
So I wrote an email to SolarVPS. They got back to me really quickly, asking me to send my server ip's and my root password (I had initially only sent my customer number). I was not really happy sending my root password over email to them, so I just sent them the server IP's.
I then got an email back saying that it was standard procedure to send my root password to the over email, and that it was secure because their helpdesk is secure. I don't know how they are securing the email connection from me to their helpdesk though (of course, it isn't secure, because email is sent in plain text), so I still haven't sent them this. I don't need them to log into my server anyway, I can see that it went down, I just wanted to know if they had brought the machine down for a reason. The whole root password over email thing is not the problem anyway.
What concerned me is the rest of their response.
They told me that they had not brought the machine down on purpose. I sent them the log lines I pasted above, and their response was:
- shows that your VPS has been shut down, just like the owner of the VPS would have shut it down using "halt" command. This issue appears when the VPS is overloaded (RAM is almost 100% used, and CPU is upto 90-100%), and in this case Virtouzzo shuts the VPS down in order to avoid resources abuse on the entire node and not to affect the other VPS's.
This is the part that concerns me. As I understood it, the Virtualization software is there to keep you in a box, and restrict the amount of resources that a person can take up so it doesn't affect others. If my server is under heavy load, I can understand if it becomes slow, but I don't find it acceptable for it to be shut down for 4 hours!
Is this usual policy for VPS's? If this is the case, I guess I'm going to have to look for dedicated, because this is not acceptable to me. Although my server is rarely under high load, I don't want to have to worry that it might disappear for hours if it is.
It would be great to hear some opinions from people with more experience in this area than me. If true, this is definitely something people should mention as a disadvantage to VPS's.
My server just hang and whole hard drive was turn to read-only mode.
My KVM shows this
Soft Lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 10s [shutdown:10888]
I can't even google for such error. Anyone experience this before?
