The server is going down from time to time, every 12 days or so the site hosted there is no longer accesible, everything starts with the site slowing don and down and then is not longer reachable, what we do is to request a power cycle, and with this we start all over again till next power cycle, so on so on, of course, here are my server details and more info on this:
- MySQL - 5.1.41-3ubuntu12.10
- Apache - 2.2.14-5ubuntu8.4
- PHP - 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.9
- operating system: Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS
After some time emailing the support guys to barely check about what's going on, we received an email with a few things:
1.- found a few errors that likely would cause issues with Apache. The first error is:
[Mon Feb 04 05:03:10 2013] [error] mod_fcgid: fcgid process manager died, restarting the server and the next error is:
[Mon Feb 04 14:32:34 2013] [error] server reached MaxClients setting, consider raising the MaxClients setting ...
Both these errors seem to indicate that you have a process that is running out of control on your server. We were unable to determine what script on your site is running caused your connections to be maxed out however it does appear that before these errors were generated there was a WordPress plugin referenced in your access logs...
2.- Additionally during our review we did find that your error log for mercadodedinerousa.com is 45 GB's which is excessively large and can cause problems when Apache is trying to write a such a large file.
3.- The majority of the errors being logged are:
[Wed Feb 06 12:12:31 2013] [error] [client 200.76.90.5] Options FollowSymLinks or SymLinksIfOwnerMatch is off which implies that RewriteRule directive is forbidden: /var/www/vhosts/mercadodedinerousa.com/httpdocs/index.pl, referer: [URL]
I can't get access to a certain site. I always get the page with:
network time out - server at *** takes to long to respons. More people have noticed this and apparently it only happens to people with certain specific providers. And not all the time. Some times they DO get access eventy to they belong to the same ISP. So I guess an ISP isn't blocking access to it otherwise it would be permenantly/The site administrator insists that certain ISP's are blocking his site. He's hosting it on his own server. The domain belongs is registered at namecheap.com.
If an ISP is blocking this site (if that's possible?), that would lead to that 'network timeout' page wouldn't it?
What is the most likely reason for getting a timeout page anyway?
I have a tiny "webpage" in an Apache server running on my computer. I've got for it this .htaccess file: URL...I have written it by googling,.(I don't really know very much about Apache HTTPD, but my Java suite requires this stuff, so here I am). Supposedly the first paragraph is to avoid Google Chrome from caching my files and the second part (the Order sentences) are to allow anyone to view only those kinds of files (which is otherwise let them see everything but folder roots.
And here is the httpd.conf, which I've modified almost only to change the listen port, the server name, and to replace the AllowOverride None into AllowOverride All so that .htaccess is actually used (I've deleted the comments for readability).URL....
I had never heard of something similar, "I can only load one instance of each file". In explanation, the only html file there's, runs from time to time a PHP script. Let's say I run it on localhost for example. Then everything is going fine. But I open a new tab, and load the same page (while the another one is yet open), and I'll get a 412 HTTP error. Similar thing happens if I try to load the webpage from another device. And, with my little experience with Apache HTTPD, I guess it's because of this .htaccess or httpd.conf files. Why does this happen or how can I solve it (either it be or not related to one of these files, I'll do whatever is needed)?
Apache 2.2.22 which can be found [link URL....]here[/link] in Windows 8 x86.
I have a dedicated server specs: AMD 3500+ 64 Bit CPU, 1 GB Ram, 160 GB Sata Drive. For 1 month, CPU load average reaches 40-50 value. This happens about 5-6 times in a day. When I stop httpd service for 30 seconds everything goes normal. I think this is not a DoS attack because it comes systematic, I dont believe no one makes this regularly except bots.
Maybe its a system service or a cronjob but it stops when I turn off httpd service? How can I be sure about what's making this regularly load?
I also did set up a script which mail me when load average of system goes crazy and restart httpd service. But instant restart is not working to stop load increase.
Server: Apache 2.4.9 (Win32-VC10) as reverse proxy - same configuration as before
Since the change to apache 2.4.9 we discover 5 log-entries for one sync-process via mobile device where before (2.4.7) there have been only 3 entries for the same sync-process with the same device. Besides this it takes a bit longer.
We run httpd-2.2.3 on CentOS 5.8 with caching enable. The server has been running for 4 years, but htcacheclean has never been run. The cache folder is about 10GB now (a "du" on the folder takes a very long time to complete). Should we expect any problem when running htcacheclean for a first time such as server slowing or freezing, ... Furthermore, in case of freezing, if we disable caching and restart the server, do we expect any problems? We did a few test on our test servers, and everything was fine, but our test servers do not have a large cache folder.
There are 2 different domains with the same IP being served by Apache. I want one of the domains to be served by lighttpd, is it possible without having to change the IP of that domain?
I have replaced the real paths with "PATH" for security reasons. How to reduce the time to first byte in general. I tried setting up memcache to accomplish this but I didn't notice any changes...
I have configure my Apache to create rotated logs for every periodic time. It worked fine with my local PC, but when it is being configured on to a server system, the actual error.log file is not being update, only the rotated logs are created. If i remove the Error Log command from httpd.conf for Error Log Rotation, again it works fine as usual.
We have many webservers in our environment, Few webservers serves static contents. In one application, we often change the excel file. Every day or 2 days once we will modified the excel sheet content. File name will be the same, only the content will be changed. We will modify the content of the sheet and upload through FTP to the docroot. After we done this if we access the application URL, its displaying the old content. Its takes time to reflect. sometime with in 3 hours sometimes after a day only reflecting. We are not sure what is the issue. we cleared the cache in browser and tried then also its showing the old content. We are using DNS,network load balancer, proxy between the browser and the webserver.
I tired accessing through FQDN, it showed old content, then i accessed through the LB IP it showed the modifed file. For testing i changed the content again and then accessed. This time even for IP it showed old content. Same i tried with the instance 1 IP and Instance 2 IP. On first time it showing properly but after i cahnged the file content and accessed it showing the old file I tried accesing from a different PC where we havent accessed before, there also it showed old content, SO i feel browser cache is not an issue.
We using Source subnet mask IP persistence in load balancer. I am not sure where the old file is cached actually. Will it be cached in Load balancer or proxy or somewhere in webserver. Just we are placing the file in docroot and accessing it in the URL
I have big problem, In my HyperVM i've change time to EUROPA/Sarajevo but in WHM still going 24 hours in forward. Please help me to resolve this. This is very important...
i have 1 decent server hosted by netriver, managed by PSM, for the past 3 weeks, my server down every night at the same time, during the day the load was really low ( below 1 ) and suddenly just before 3 oclock in the morning it goes up upto 2000 and the system crash, and need to reboot, then it will back to normal again, PSM doesnt know what causing it and just advised me to install PRM ( which i tried before and really give me headache ), what you guys think causing it ?
After being with KnownHost for a while, I decided to make the jump to a real Dedicated Server. KnownHost does offer a Hybrid Server -- but it isn't a real Dedicated Server. So I gave up my Hybrid at KH to experience the real thing.
After much research, I selected ManageMyBox (MMB)-- their current special is awesome with a managed Dual Core AMD with lots of disk space and generous bandwidth. My only concern about MMB was some of the discussion threads about their support, but if you read long enough, you will find the same support issues at all hosting companies.
I just wanted to let you guys know that so far in day two with MMB, I'm ecstatic to report that my server was set up correctly from the very beginning in less than the 24-48 hours they advertise (mine was less than 24 , and I have alrerady opened a support ticket to get another software installed -- and within 30 minutes, the software was installed and the ticket closed. This all happened tonight -- a Saturday night.
I'm not getting paid to post this -- but I do believe in giving credit where credit is due. I will report followups if things do take a turn for the worse, but so far, its not just good -- it's GREAT!
Week ago I decided to rent another dedicated box , install CentOS 5 64Bit and use LiteSpeed as a web server. What seemed to be trivial at start became nightmare later.
I was unable to compile PHP 5 with --with-litespeed and --with-curl directives. If I removed one of them it was ok but together it didn't work.
Tried to search forums but nothing helped, so I decided to go back to Centos 5 32bit and try there. It compiled OK. So I'm in trouble now. I wanted to have server with 64bit OS + LiteSpeed because of its speed, system resources consumption and good DOS protection. I asked several questions about advantages of 64bit over 32bit OS and the most important thing was how much issues can I expect on 64bit OS (libraries availability). Almost every reply said that it's without issues to go with 64bit OS. My experiences say it's not as easy as I expected.
I didn't find any good protection against DOS for Apache so far, mod_evasive doesn't work as I expected. What do you recommend ? Should I stay with apache on Centos 64bit + apache with everything installed via yum (should work OK) or go with CentOS 5 32bit + LiteSpeed there ? LiteSpeed I'm talking about is Enterprise edition.
i have a reseller package with a small company for like almost a year but now is full so decide to get a 2 servers from The Planet and now i all ready have 2 servers one is for sell hosting and my other is for install a script like youtube for a site videos .
Ok now im new with servers and i need to setup my domain with the server now can you guys tell me step by step how i can get it work because i all ready try to do it and don't work im very frustrate
First i get the domain from godaddy now lets work with this example domain [ mydomain.com ] how i can add this domain to setup my servers i have 2 servers
server1 this is for star selling hosting
server2 this is for my video script
Now how i can setup this 2 server with my domain and the dns step by step and this things so i can star selling hosting
I have to reboot this server each day. It seems to crash (or freeze if you call it) around 11:55 pm server time (central US). How do I trace the cause of this? I installed CSF / LFD in replacement of APF/BFD.
This is a centos 3.9 / cpanel 11 box.
crontab -e shows nothing out of the default ordinary
/var/log/messages shows this

How can we know that how long it takes our server to respond, in terms of Microseconds. Is it take long time while processing an Ms Access database or SQL Server, Sending flash movies to client.
For example, I can accomplish a task while reading data from server database , also I can accomplish it using an image or flash movie.
Which way should be efficient for my visitors, I am using a paid hosting plan.
Also I have another question.
How could I know that a web hosting provider company's server is a fast machine than other company. I have options like "WebHost Company1" & "WebHost Company2"
I host the same website on both servers, while I request some page in a client machine, How could I measure the efficency & speed of the server, I am sure both servers will not send content to client with same speed.
due to any reasons, may be 1 server has more traffic, has slow hardware, has longer route.
Also which technology is faster, ASP, ASP.Net, PHP, coldfusion. Is there some way to measure these facts about a webserver.
In these cases, how could I choose best server. How to made decession about that.
We've always used open source linux servers up until now. For a variety of reasons we're contemplating adding one windows box.
Is there much practical difference for the average small business between 2003 and 2008?
What's the difference between "authenticated" and "unauthenticated" windows servers?
How is most administration and regular tasks done? I'm used to sshing into my linux servers-- I'm assuming for windows this is gui based? What's the standard software used for this?
Php function was returning wrong time. There was a difference of 1 hour between the server time and the php time. Due to this ,most of the functions on the site were not working properly.
Fix :
For checking the php time, put the following code in a file, say time.php
Code: <?php $time = time(); $result = date(”Y-m-d (D) H:i:s”,$time); echo “Current date and local time on server = $result “; ?> Execute the php script.
Code: [root@localhost ~]# php -a time.php Interactive mode enabled Current date and local time on server = 2017-01-30 (Mon) 18:04:25 To get the server time , issue the following command :
Code: [root@localhost ~]# date Mon Jan 30 17:04:25 IST 2017 You can see the difference of one hour between the server time and the php time. For fixing this, you need to install the PECL timezonedb module.
Code: [root@localhost ~]# pecl install timezonedb
At the end , you might see the following message :
==========================
Build process completed successfully Installing ‘/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/timezonedb.s o’ install ok: channel://pecl.php.net/timezonedb-2009.6 configuration option “php_ini” is not set to php.ini location You should add “extension=timezonedb.so” to php.ini ==========================
So , add the line ” extension=timezonedb.so” to the php.ini file and restart apache.
I have a dedicated server that I am renting that appears to randomly respond very slowly for some reason (pings are between 90-4000ms with about 75% packet loss).
This has been happening lately (about once a week for the past 4 weeks) and I thought I had originally found the cause of the problem but it appears I haven't.
Originally, when this problem was happening we were getting an abnormally high about of traffic but a reboot always fixed the issue. I've checked every where I can think of but I cannot find anything out of the ordinary.
ight now we're averaging less than 2Mbps in traffic, the CPU load is less than 0.75, the memory usage is at 55% with no swap being used, Apache connections are normal, no active SSH, FTP, or mail connections, I've restarted all services which had no impact, I've checked the access and error logs but can't see anything out of the ordinary.
I have a ticket open with the data center but I'm trying to figure this out on my own to fix whatever is causing this so I can move my data over to a new server we just got setup over the weekend in a local data center.
