Pile Up Of Crond Processes At Certain Times

May 10, 2009

To me, this sounds really strange and really unrelated, hopefully it will ring a bell in somebody-who-reads-this' mind...

After enabled suexec in my webserver (litespeed), every day at two regular times, I notice a ton of crond processes on many different users. This slows down my entire server until they go away and it must be resolved.

I have only recently noticed that it is infact crond processes causing this and I hope I have finally found the correct issue. It causes a chain reaction of events and so I have slowly had to crawl up the chain to find the root of the issue... (high iowait, high swapping, high memory, normal processes taking up more cpu%, etc. etc. ........ crond processes)

I have checked every single file in /var/spool/cron and none of the cron jobs run remotely near these times (except some that run every minute/15 minutes for example). Also, I don't understand how so many crond processes could be made at once. I will make a better rough estimate when it next happens.

What could it be causing this to happen?

I'm sure this isn't normal, but I have to ask. Is this normal :

...and if not, why on earth will it be doing this? ....

Aspnix Big Pile Of

Jul 30, 2007

We have been with aspnix for quite some time, we have posted good reviews about them, but now we advise everyone to stay away from them.

The History:

- 2 years with aspnix service, they had very good uptime but in the end we always known that if someday something went wrong it was going to be a real disaster, why? Because their supports its a big pile of crap.

- At the beginning we talked to ROMA that seemed to be the only living creature on that company but in the last time an other support guy called Azhar or Pazhar, something like that is the one that respond to questions (1 hour per day, sometimes less), his answers are always im going to send to admin, until now didnīt solve us anything, the best part is that everytime we begin a MSN conversation with him, he always suddenly stops talking and disapear specially when he really donīt know what to say.

- Aspnix has on the news they are going to develop a new website and some parts of the old one are going to be disabled, this is great new website (someday), the funny thing is that the first part to be disabled was the support forums

- Now the best part, most of our websites stopped working and has always we sent a ticket with no answer for 6 hours, than pazhar or something appears on the msn and says "i was out", mmm great, and about our website?? He says "the disk server crashed and we are recovering it, its going to take 3 days minimum" -- 3 days? After this he went away again.

Its really impossible to work with them, and if you have a client that really uses asp.net 2.0 or other windows server functionality, forget support, if something is not well configured the answer is always the same, we donīt support code. This happened us many times but when we move our clients website to another windows hoster it works perfectly.

I know there are many aspnix clients feeling the same, you can post here because their forum is dead and the same applies for their support.

Howto: Automatically Verify Cron / Crond Is Running And Restart If Not

May 30, 2005

This one's pretty simple really, but given the fact that I'm constantly running into crond stops with CPanel servers (no clue why, or where, but it's happening), I'll post this here. If it helps someone, then great, if not, hey, no worries.

Firstly, login as root to your server through ssh, however you usually do .

Next, the script (we'll call it /bin/croncheck.sh). Use whatever editor you choose to create the file.

#!/bin/bash .......

NY NOC Setup Times

May 27, 2009

I have just come here to see if anyone else has experienced long setup times with the NY NOC?

It has been 4.5 days now and still no welcome email.

I emailed sales asking for an ETA and they just said due to the public holiday your server will be setup tomorrow (that was 2 days ago)

I emailed sales again and got no reply. NOCANDY replied on here saying yes things got delayed your server will be up shortly. (that was yesterday)

I have asked for a full refund lets see what happens

I recently took the AMD opteron special they had going for $69/m which i thought was pretty good but i wont even get to try it

Access Times

Feb 22, 2008

my question. We host around 40 websites that have hundreds of pictures. I have 60gigs dedicated to pictures alone. since we are getting more clients I want to get a bigger hard drive just for the pictures. Since my boss is obssesed with user access times, as in users accessing the pictures on the web on their end, he thinks getting a bigger hard drive will slow down the server and hence slow down access time serving out the pictures to end users. I guess what I'm saying is does a bigger hard drive slow down a website?

Let me know if you need clarification I wasn't sure how to word this.

Processes Under Fcgid

Jul 10, 2009

I just recently switched to using fcgid with cPanel and was wondering how I can go about seeing what is actually running under each process. Before when I was running PHP as CGI I could do psauxwe|grep PID and see all the environmental variables along with the path. I'm not able to do that any longer with fcgid. Is there anyway to get this info now?

Suspicious Processes

Nov 27, 2008

Well one of my servers has been under a DDoS attack for a while and I've been doing things to keep it down but there is a suspicious process that keeps running and I am guessing that is whats keeping the server load up because when I stop apache the load goes down but not for long.

The process is this:

Code:
/opt/adobe/fms/fmscore -adaptor _defaultRoot_ -vhost _defaultVHost_ -app registry -inst registry -tag -conf /opt/adobe/fms/conf/Server.xml -name _defaultRoot_:_defaultVHost_:registry:registry:

Does anyone know what this process is or how to block it?

Processes Eating Up Cpu

Feb 12, 2008

Got some processes that regularly eat up my cpu resources:

%CPU 36.0netstat -plan

%CPU 36.0 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -k start -DSSL

%CPU 6.2httpd [truncurl.com] [/leisha?.jpg]
Note leisha.jpg does not even exist!!

%CPU 7.0 /usr/local/bin/python2.4 -S /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/cron/disabled

Something is going seriously wrong with my server,
what can I do ?

My server is frequently down because of kmemsize errors and I'm sure something is misconfigured.

Will try to disable mailman now, pretty strange to find that in my log.

Log File(s)

Problem:

Tasks: 580 total, 1 running, 579 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie

I keep getting too many sleeping processes (300-500) - making the load shoot to 20-50 within 30 minutes.

I stop apache, and restart it in 5 minutes, everythings fine.

Cycle repeats.

Where can I stop this? By editing the httpd.conf file?

Which setting would it be under?

VPS & Background Processes

Dec 8, 2007

On jaguarpc.com, their terms of service state,

"We do not allow programs to run continually in the background. This is to minimize system resources used and operational maintenance needed. We do not allow any chat or topsite programs on our servers other than the ones we pre-install for our clients to use. IRC: We currently DO NOT allow IRC or IRC bots to be operated on our network."

I thought the whole point of using a VPS was so you could run a continuous application (like a chat/game/etc server)? Why are so many VPS services against IRC (the chat server I use is not IRC based, but I just think its wierd so many prohibit IRC)

Spamd Processes

Oct 15, 2007

I'm having a problem with one user account, every 5-10 minutes a spamd process of this user gets locked using 60-90% cpu and never ends. If I don't kill the process another one does the same and they all get locked causing very high loads

I reinstalled exim but it did nothing

The problem persisted even when this user's account was suspended

Tracert And Lag Times With Site

Mar 8, 2006

I've recently moved server and since then I've had a problem with the main site I administrate. The problem is that when I'm moving around the site I frequently get long lag times between clicking on a link and getting to that next page. This isn't slow transfer speeds - the status bar shows 'waiting for xxxx' for sometimes 15 to 20 seconds. The site makes quite heavy use of a MySQL database and associated forum software.

It was suggested I did some tracerts to see what that showed. The thing is I don't know what the significance of tracert results are! It seems to show lots of timeouts - but then it shows lots of timeouts when I try it on other sites as well, which don't have the same lag problems.

I have no reasons to think it's my host, who are really good and responsive. But my ISP says it's nothing to do with them either. If the routing is a problem, where lies the responsibility for selecting the routes between me and the server to my site?

I'm hoping this is just the link between me and my site, as other site users don't seem to have had a problem yet. I'll post a couple of tracert results in case anyone is able to advise me on what their significance might be.

Ip Is Trying To Download The Same File Many Times

Oct 30, 2009

We have a video streaming server, sometimes the server gets really slow and when we digg into it, we see that the same ip is trying to download the same file many many times. for example i either run this command

netstat -n | grep :80 | awk '{ print $5 }' | awk -F: '{ print $1 }' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n | tail

or go to WHM and see the 'apache stats' and i see 100 http connections from the same ip, trying to download the same video 100 times,,,

what is this? is this some sort of attack? could that be 100 different people that use a proxy? or what is going on?

ECATEL Server Set-up Times

Jan 13, 2009

if any of you could give a quick idea on the set up times for dedicated servers from ECATEL

I paid 515 euros 9 days ago, and the server still hasn't been set up (Hardware delivery problems I have been told) and before I ordered, they stated the setup time would be 48 hours.

Is this normal? The last email i received from them was 3 days ago.

I find this completley unproffesional, It is always another few days.

What are your experiences with them? I am utterly dissapointed so far.

Hacked 3 Times In 2 Days

Feb 7, 2008

In both cases a hacker created email accounts (through cpanel?) and then sent out spam through the webmail system. I don't see on the log where they accessed the cpanel, so I'm thinking they may have done it on another day, or they may have done it using some remote script.

Here's what the log looks like.

83.138.172.72 - - [06/Feb/2008:04:52:56 -0600] "GET /webmail HTTP/1.0" 301 0 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; Crazy Browser 3.0.0 Beta2)"
82.128.5.177 - - [06/Feb/2008:05:52:14 -0600] "GET /webmail HTTP/1.1" 301 5 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; Crazy Browser 2.0.1)" ...

Keep Server Times Synchronized

Feb 19, 2008

way to keep server times synchronized? All servers are in the same location.

For example, a website has two web servers and one database server. What's the best way to keep the time syncd on all servers (they should be the exact same time really)?

Operating System: Linux - CentOS
