VPS Constantly Rebooting
Jun 29, 2009
I have a vps and I was having memory issues so I reboot my server. Upon doing that it seems to have put itself into a loop and is constantly rebooting itself every 5mins.
I checked the logs at /var/log/messages and found this:

I moved to SLHost some time around January. The first couple of months were okay. However, the last two months have been hellish. This month alone the server was down June 1, 3, 4, 16 (for 13 hours) and, again, today.
anyone else having the same experience with SLHost?

I just setup a new pop account in Outlook 2007 and provided all the proper details as I have on other pop accounts I have setup. I am constantly getting blocked by the firewall on the server (CSF + LFD) and I am 100% positive I am using the right password. This happens every time I setup a new pop account and I don't know why.
Using cpanel / exim
Firewall shows this
tcp:in:d=110=xxxxxx # lfd: 3 (pop3d) login failures from xxxxxx - Fri Sep 14 16:42:16 2007
tcp:in:d=995=xxxxxx 2 # lfd: 3 (pop3d) login failures from xxxxxx - Fri Sep 14 16:42:16 2007
Outlook constantly pops up the login dialog box even though I set that up already with "remember password" checked as well.
I closed / restarted Outlook, pop, exim and still getting the login box + firewall blocking me again.
If that isn't enough, I even put my IP in the allow list (CSF) and restarted it while made sure it was not in the disallow list.
STILL getting blocked!

I have been using my Server for a decent while, All of a sudden of the last month it has decided that it wants to play a game.
"Spamd" keeps failing and automagically restarts.
It restarts and works, But then Fails once again a few hours later. One morning I woke up to 7 error messages with the same service.
By Restarting Exim it resolves the issue but it happens hours later.
I have tried mostly of what I can think of.
Does anyone have any other thoughts on this issue and how it can be resolved?

I give HMS VPS hosting two thumbs down. <--- flip those over
This VPS I am working with is constantly crashing or slow.
Seeing as pricing wise how they are a "premium" VPS provider, the service is anything.
(By service I mean the VPS service provided, their tech support is quick to respond, the problem remains, but they are quick to respond, usually it seems they just reboot the vps)
Does anyone know how many VPS's the put on one server?
Is there anyway from the command line to view my virtuozzo stats to see if their were any blocks? Ex. oomgarpages, numothersock, kmemsize, etc.

an inexpensive VPS host and based on reviews on this forum, went with Web Wide Hosting.
I had a smooth signup and thanks to Jon at WWH, managed to get a payment snafu with Paypal resolved smoothly.
However, I've been struggling a lot with getting most recommended steps to actually work in my VPS and I'm getting increasingly frustrated.
The latest problem I have is that trying to install Perl modules fails with a "cannot allocate memory" error. First google hits suggest increasing memory, which really isn't an option for me right now. More puzzling is the fact that both HyperVM and user_beancounters suggest I have enough headroom atleast to install perl modules!

You might want to try
install Bundle::CPAN
reload cpan
without quitting the current session. It should be a seamless upgrade

For some reason pmmcli-daemon has started to run constantly at 90-100% CPU even when it's not backing up.
No error message emails are generated.
I can stop it, but then I find it running after it has completed the domain backups.

The system is going down for reboot NOW!
[root@server50 log]# uptime

I have a server that is monitored with a system that automatically reboots if a service appears to be down. The server is being rebooted several times a month and it seems to be getting more frequent.
The server load is almost never high. It's a dual Xeon with hyperthreading and the load is almost always below 1. Practically the only time it goes high is during cPanel backup and it hardly ever reboots during that.
The DC tried replacing the RAM, but a day and a half later it rebooted again.
The server has 1 fairly active MySQL message board and 3 fairly high bandwidth sites (images and video clips), and the rest of the sites are quite small and inactive. One thing the tech said was "Apache gets a lot of traffic so I'm not surprised to see an apache restart once a month or so. You have 115 concurrent connections to apache and over 25,000 hits in the last 2 hours alone" but I've gotten reboots a few times/week.

I suspect that my machine keep rebooting itself judging it's online for a while with the result of my ping that I can ping my machine for less than 3 minutes and then it goes offline afterward.
I've checked with the datacenter found my IP is clean and fine.

I have compiled a RT kernel using 2.6.24 and it has been working great. All of our machines are runnin Centos 5. No issues like the previous configurations on Dual Quad Xeons 5335's and 8GB of RAM. As well as one box with Dual Core Xeon 5140's with 4GB of RAM. They have identical motherboards. My issue is that when you do a soft reboot, it doesn't "technically" reboot. It does, but it doesn't. Let me explain. It kills my ssh connection and you can't ping it for maybe say a minute or 2. When it comes back up, you get a new SSH key to login. You hit ok, and you try logging in. It doesn't accept any passwords. The server basically becomes inoperable.
The only way to solve this is to do a hard reboot. Phsyically rebooting the server.
What could be causing this? This only started to happened when using the RT kernel. Is there an option that may be conflicting with it, however our 3rd and 4th box, with the same configuration has no issues like this. Soft reboots work great.
Here is the message log.

Oh and this is to reboot the server nightly at 4am, when this issue occurs.

I've had this problem for a while. My HTTP will stop functioning, so I attempt to restart it via SSH. I restart it, yet it doesn't fix the problem. So I reboot the server via SSH. I wait 5-10 minutes and the server STILL isnt up. Can't login via SSH or anything.
So every time I have to tell my host to manually reboot the server. I've had apache recompiled multiple times, but I don't think that's the issue.

I have been trying to change an IP address on a customers Linux(RH9) server and I am getting errors, Can some on point/push me in the correct direction.
I am editing /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and am getting this message,
"1. Quit editing this file, because another edit session is active on this file.Continuing to edit will result in two versions of the same file. The one that is written last will overwrite the other one, resulting in loss of changes. The text "ifcfg-eth0" indicates that the process
editing this file runs on the same computer. When working over a network you will not see this message, because the process will be running on another computer.
2. Recover a previously crashed edit session."
This is a stand alone server and noone else uses this server.
I have tried to use the vim rercover command but no luck.
I am more use to using pico than vi, but pico is not installed.

I'm hosting proxy sites on my vps and untill yesterday my proxy worked fine with no problems at all.
But while going trough my server graphs I found it odd that I had 0 bandwidth since the middle of yesterday.. I first supposed that this was due school's out [url]but this wasn't the reason I found out!
I tried testing one of my proxies to see if it was still working, but with any URL I try to visit I get:
The requested resource could not be loaded. libcurl returned the error: Couldn't resolve host 'www.google.com'
I suppose the DNS server crashed?
I already restarted the VPS 3 times including the DNS Server.

Are there any special practices to reboot a node in PPA?
So far a simple "shutdown -r now" hasn't broken anything but I want to make sure PPA doesn't make assumptions about the nodes being up at any point. (both management and service)...

After rebooting my server, my websites are no longer working.
If I access the plesk machine on the local network by it's hostname, the default Plesk page shows as expected. Everything on 8443 works too.
All hosted sites do not work. FTP DOES work. This seems limited to an http problem of some sort.

I've had this problem a long time now with my hosting network and decided to ask here hoping I get some good solutions, or if someone is willing to looking at this (I'll pay if they want).
Here's what I mean:
[url]
Problem is as you can see apache processes constantly rise infinitely, at least until I restart apache (/etc/init.d/httpd restart). The point of restart is shown in red lines.
And after restart, it goes down again for X amount of hours then eventually rises again infinitely until it's restarted again.
But the fact that after restart it remains down, it means it had the potential to be down all along.
So my question is: what could be causing this and does anyone have solution to keep them low at all times (as per graphs)?
