a log file analysis program that can tell me the exact time an ip address accesses my server and how many times that particular ip address hits the server.
Does anybody know of a package that supports this, or is it even possible?
I'm have a VDS with hosting-ie, and it is extremely slow.. I run almost nothing on it..
I'm not running a website, no MYSQL, no Databases.. just newsleecher, a bittorent client for seeding ubunto and occassionally i'll open ftp program to transfer files from home to server.
Lately, i can't even just have newsleecher open by itself and have it running, as it pauses waiting for threads to catch up. If I close everything, i sometimes have to still wait from 30-45 seconds just to open the My Computer Icon. To me thats not acceptable. 26 processes running, with none larger than 10K, memory commit will go up to 90M of 1024M.. let its too slow to run anything.
Their support tell me, that even though its dedicated resources, i'm on a box with 4 other hosts., so hence it being slow. Their suggestion is I upgrade to another box.. I find it hard to believe that i should have to upgrade so I can run a few non-memory intensive programs.
What can i do to prove to them that there is a problem? I'm locked into a 3 month commitment. What use is a VDS server that run 1 application? Is there specific counters i can enable that would get to the heart of the matter?
It is Win2003 running on it. 60 G HD , 1.5 Ghz CPU, 1G Ram. I read some of the other threads, but they seem to be more for someone that has access outside of their VDS.. (unless i missed one)
edit: I suggested to them maybe someone is hammering the HD, but they say there is no hard disk, that its only allocated space..(?)
I have always found this odd and do not understand enough to figure it out.
Any knowledgeable people would be cool.
My datacenter has given me 2amp circuit for my computer. It seems to run fine on it.
Looking at the back of my power supply it says the following
520Watt max
Input rating 100-240v~,50-60Hz 7A-3A
Output rating +3.3V & +5V combined 150W max 12V combined current 39A max (and a lot of other stuff on amps and volts for output).
Now, Watts = Volts * Amps. So if I have 520watts and 12 volts would be 43 amps If it means 520 watts and 3.3volts it would be 157 amps However it seems to max at 39amps on the back for output.
I imagine input is all that matters here and at 520 watts and 100 to 240volts that would be 5.2 amps to 2.16 amps
And the thing says 7amps to 3 amps on the back for input.
So....I imagine that is the max it can pull before dying.
However, I have 4 drives, 4 ram sticks, and 2 quad core cpus all going and I would figure I am at least halfway or more of the power use.
Main VPS is 1152mb SLM ram running only a relatively small vBulletin community. My goal is to keep this as fast as possible, which is why I overbought on the VPS and recently moved my couple other low volume sites (and some higher volume image hosting) + some email acccounts on to a 512mb SLM VPS.
Both VPS's are Cpanel/WHM running centros 4 (might be 4.5, I'm confused on this) and the latest release version of whm.
What I am wondering is what stats/tracking I might be able to run to see what typical usage is on the two VPS's for a day or two and try and figure out if I jumped the gun in splitting them, and can safely remerge them without effecting the vBulletin performance.
Can someone help me out with how to setup and read some stats that would tell me if both VPS's are underutilized enough to merge them back together onto the 1152mb VPS?
I'm trying to set up a site on IIS 5. I think I've done the setup on IIS ok, but when I try the site, it's not getting served. I think there might be a firewall in the way, blocking port 80. Any idea how I would test to see if this is the case?
Assuming a linux server / apache / php / mysql setup
I'm wondering 1) how you can find out which php script is causing problems, i assume infinite looping, crashing a server and 2) are there any measures you can take (maybe in the php or apache configuration) that can prevent such a thing from happening in the first place, other than writing good code obviously?
Is there anyway to determine how many visitors subscribe to an RSS feed? (besides using something like technorati or feedburner) Does anyone know of a log analyzer will do this or another custom solution?
I'm using MRTG to display graphs of traffic to my server, and today noticed a period of several hours where there was a lot of *incoming* data over the network, which is unusual. There's a good chance it's some harmless script or service that I've forgotten about, but really I need more information on what services/ports are creating what traffic, which brings me to my question.
I'm wondering whether there's an easy way to check what services (or ports) are creating traffic, and what volumes of traffic. It would be nice if it was possible to graph or breakdown the traffic by service somehow, and determine which are the biggest users of bandwidth and when. This is a dedicated CentOS server that I can install basically anything on, but that doesn't use a control panel, so I'd like to see what great ideas you folks can come up with, or whether there's any nice software you can suggest. I'm only using the server for hobbyist stuff at the moment, so free software, or ideas using built in commands are preferable.
We're running on Linux/Apache/MySQL/RoR and have a number of cron jobs that run throughout the day on our server. We've been noticing lately that at certain times of the day the site becomes really slow. When I'm online with my engineers I can mention this to them and they can check and see and say "Oh yeah, it's job XYZ that's spiking the server load."
That's great but much of the time when I notice the sluggishness my developers are offline (we're in different time zones). I'm wondering if there's a fairly easy way to track this when they're not online so we can say "Yup, last night at 10 PM your time when you noticed that it was job ABC." There has to be something that allows you to do this right?
Cpanel installed on Centos 5.2 on a dedicated server.
This morning, I received multiple emails about services being restarted. About 20 minutes apart, with nothing that I coudl see going on with the server, I had multiple services fail and restart.
How do I trouble shoot this to see if there is a problem?
At 6:21 The following services failed: httpd lfd httpd cpsrvd lfd and I received emailed messages similar to these (obviously the port and service name were didfferent in each email). cpsrvd failed @ Sat Nov 15 06:21:29 2008. A restart was attempted automagically. Failure Reason: Unable to connect to port 2086 Then, at 6:42 The following services failed: cpsrvd cpsrvd httpd lfd httpd lfd and I received emailed messages similar to these (obviously the port and service name were didfferent in each email). cpsrvd failed @ Sat Nov 15 06:21:29 2008. A restart was attempted automagically.
I was told that I have bursted the RAM on my VPS, over 70,000 time since the parent server was rebooted 100 days ago. How do I determine what site is causing this (including mine, which isn't DB driven (yet))?
I am looking for a way to put a rewrite condition into my configuration where I can poll an external web page and based on the http status code, allow the rewrite or not.
I am doing this in order to set a maintenance status on two different proxy servers, one is apache the other is a big-ip. I already have the maintenance pages and control setup on the big-ip, but I need a way to poll a url and pull a specific http status code served up by the big-ip.
i have installed ppa 11.5 update #3 and now updated to update #4.
While adding new service nodes, i get everytime the error "Can not determine remote host "hostname" platform". I tryed Apache web server standalone and with mysql, postfix...
My customer has an external facing Apache server that is acting as a reverse proxy to two internal applications. They have:
- external addresses for each app which resolve to different ip addresses, so app1.their_domain.com and app2.their_domain.com resolve to 77.3.170.10 and 77.3.170.11 respectively. - the Apache server has two network interfaces with ip addresses 192.168.10.10 and 192.168.10.11 - the external ip addresses resolve to the above internal addresses - the firewall between the Apache server and the internal app servers is configured to allow traffic from 192.168.10.10 to reach app_server1, and traffic from 192.168.10.11 to reach app_server2, both using port 7777.
I have configured a virtual host in httpd.conf for each ip, i.e.
This works fine in that the external address are being routed to the correct application, however the firewall is blocking requests to the second app as it appears the requests are coming from the Apache servers 'primary' ip address 192.168.10.10 instead of 192.168.10.11.
Is it possible to send requests using the ip address from the relevant VirtualHost?
Whenever I restart my apache on my VPS, it throws some wierd warnings:
Forcing reload of web server (apache2)...apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for goebs apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName waiting apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for goebs apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName .
where goebs is my VPS linux machine hostname.
I already have a domain setup with this VPS, and it works fine, just that I get this weird warning.
I want to redirect a website to a particular URL so that the address bar shows the same URL and not the destination URL. I know it is possible via URL masking, however, I want it in such a way that whenever somebody clicks on any link in the website, the address bar should still show the original URL. To put it in simple words, Suppose I want to redirect [url] to [url]. Now if there is a link named contact/index.htm and somebody clicks on it the address bar should display [url]and not redirect to [url]
How can it be possible using URL Rewrite method in .htaccess file?
- I can't access the webserver - I'll try to restart httpd, and I'll get
Starting httpd: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:443
To fix this, I run
[root@www1 ~]# lsof -i tcp:443 COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME perl 11307 apache 4u IPv6 476943447 TCP *:https (LISTEN)
There is always leftover process that is causing the restart to fail. Once i force kill the process, I am able to restart httpd properly.
Now it is ok if this just occurs once in a while, but this problem keeps repeating itself almost everyday at 4am server time (cron time?). What can I do to permanently fix this?
