i'm unable to the response times of my server. The server resolves the correct ip to the ping domain but gets a request timed out.
I'm using a firewall but i don't know whether is that the case. If so what should i do to correct this issue.
For a dedicated web server meant to serve a forum such as this one for example but aimed at a specific geographic location, how much extra per month would you pay for say 50 ms. vs. 85 ms. ping times to that location?

Still, I needed a fast VPS and they were located locally so I decided to give them a try. First thing I did was to check the latency.
..then I re-checked it.

I know that this isn't a miracle provider, and pings from other locations vary from 35ms+ but the 0.9ms traceroute result made me smile.
If anyone else wants to, feel free to post a traceroute so I can at least know who will be getting the latest latency on this baby.
Pings with 800 byte packets are going through fast and with 0% loss, but http requests, remote desktop, and basically anything more complex than a ping is incredibly unstable and laggy. It can't be a server problem as it's happening on all the servers on a particular network. It's not DNS issues because direct IP connections still have the same issues. What could cause this?

a pretty weird problem is happening on one server
# ps -auxw | grep exim
mailnull 538 0.0 0.4 5448 2044 ?? Ss 7:16AM 0:00.01 /usr/local/sbin/exim -bd -q30m (exim-4.64-0)

# telnet 127.0.0.1 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost
Escape character is '^]'.
and nothing else... I don't get the EXIM banner, so many things are not working
mainlog or rejectlog says nothing about that...
mainlog just says everything is ok after I restart it:
exim 4.64 daemon started: pid=1664, -q30m, listening for SMTP on port 25 (IPv6 and IPv4)
I find it strange too that sockstat and netstat doesn't show anything about the smtp server (this is running FreeBSD):
# sockstat -4 | grep 25
# netstat -an | grep 25
# sockstat -4 | grep -i smtp
# netstat -an | grep -i smtp

I tried to use the default config and got the same error
I have a very strange problem. Yesterday morning I got a "server down" alert. Restarted httpd and everything run ok ... until today morning, the same problem again.
Symptoms:
1. The webserver did not stop working, it just took too much time to respond.
2. I cannot find anything suspicious in the logs.
3. I started to log the number of apache processes in 4 minutes interval, it did not increase during the failure but remained at a very reasonable number.
4. Now, almost 3 hrs from the last failure, there are 36 apache processes, each eating 14M RAM, server has 4GB ram total, no swapping, almost 3GB are free (cached).
The question is.
How should I prepare for the expected tommorow failure, to be able finaly localise the problem?
I have 3 servers ServerA(Web, mail), ServerB(MySQL+Master replication), ServerC(Mysqlslave+web)
It happens that my website stops responding for few mins and then it comes back again automatically. I checked the server logs but I couldn't find any suspicious.
Also, while the website is not accessible when I try to connect internally from ServerC to ServerA or ServerB using SSH. It takes lots of time (approx more than 60 seconds) to connect. When website starts working SSH is also working fine.
This is very complicated for me. Can anyone let me know what should be the problem or how can I find root cause of this problem?
it has been over 36 hours since I submit a ticket to GixxerPC because I can't login to my client account and I want to cancel my VPS.
I guess they have decided to close their doors to me once I asked for a cancellation because a friend of mine is letting me use his VPS.
I am hoping that this topic will catch the eyes of some GixxerPC staff so they will answer my ticket.
I have submitted a ticket 15 days ago and still no response from Talanovbackup.com. I mentioned an error on their site which seems to be fixed now but I am still unable to login to my data by SSH.

My server is responding slow
our site is having problems since a week or so our forum is down, our emails are all down
we have 10 staff using different aliases on the same email domain our hosting provider is bluefishhosting.com we have been unable to reach them since the last week we have contacted the company that bluefish buys their reselling account from, but they also tell us to wait another 7 days our office cannot bear this down time of 14 days
IS THERE ANY OTHER FASTER SOLUTION?
recently I have update our Apache 2.2 instance to 2.4.10, and started using Apache in Windows 2008 R2 64 bit (before we were using it in Win 2003). Our Apache is used mainly as reverse proxy to 3 apps. Well, it seems that, even if I have scheduled a nightly reboot of its service, every day it hangs, becoming unresponsive and forcing us to restart it to make it work again.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThePlanet not responding to a ticket for nearly a week?
I've used theplanet for years, but haven't used their support much. But after getting a new server, I discovered the configuration wasn't as promised (it was missing 5 IPs).
I left a ticket last Friday afternoon (12/4), but no response so I called support on the weekend. Although he promised they'd expedite it, the only result was a slightly sarcastic post to my ticket implying my expecting an acknowledgement within 24 hours was unreasonable.
I called on Monday, and the salesperson promised a manager would respond by Tue. Nothing by Wed, so I called again, and was promised that someone would contact me shortly but still nothing.
So now it's just a day short of a week after filing my ticket, and nothing but a runaround. Has their service gone downhill that much recently, or is it just me?
I got my hands on a used 2161DS (unit only, no cables etc), but somehow it doesnt seem to respond on the hyperterminal to any keyboard input.
As its used it doesnt have any support directly from Dell and Dell is unable even to give us a cost estimate as the service tag number is not in their system. Anyway...
When I power up the 2161DS KVM-Over-IP switch all I get in the Hyperterminal is

Verifying subsystem flash versions...
<snip>
DELL 2161DS Console Ready...
Press any key to continue

From there on its not working. The keyboard and mouse directly connected to it are working. Also all the menus, but we can set the network address, do firmware updates etc, only from the serial port connection (once the serial port is working).
I checked the hyperterminal settings (9600 baud, 8 bit, 1 stop bit, no parity, no flow control).
Is there anything that I might be missing?
Perhaps I have to use something like a crossed serial cable instead of a straight one ?
Character set issues?
Terminal type issues?
We have spent days in front of the machine and on the phone with Dell without really getting anywhere. Its our first 2161DS so I still want to believe that we must be missing something.
I have a problem with slow Apache 2.4.4. It's only related with https which is in general 5 time slower than the same site via http. I see this difference on the monitoring software which is measuring response time to http and https every 5 seconds. In some cases i got even timeouts in the browser on https while in the same time site is opening over http - slowly but opens always.
Apache runs on Win2k8 Enterprise, Version 2.4.4 x64 - VC10. Server is connected with quite poor internet connection as it's located in Africa. Despite of connection quality http is working properly all the time.
I use apache 2.4.1 and mod_fcgid (same config form apache 2.2.22+mod_fcgid 2.3.6) and without any error message, apache stop responding randomly.There is no problem with apache 2.2.22+mod_fcgid 2.3.6 and with apache 2.4.1 + php5_module i have

I'm having a very odd problem with one of my Linux (CentOS) cpanel server, all the server's services (http, ssh, mail, dns, etc) stop responding but the server still responds to ping.
I can't find anything wrong at all on the log files either, and the technicians that manually restart the server have told me that there is no indication of a problem on the screen.
I suspected a hardware issue and had the data center techs run a hardware test on the server but everything cleared ok.
This issue started a couple of weeks ago, no major upgrade or install took place when it started happening. From what i can see the halts are completely random, some times it goes for days without it happening and some times it happens just hours after the reboots.
Just got a strange problem on my plesk server. (11.0.9)
Qmail isn't working...
In Home>Tools & Settings>Services management SMTP "Server (QMail)" is stoppped.
When I try to start it, it say "Information: Please allow for some time for the service to start." but never starts...
In command line i try to restart it with "service qmail restart" and it says "OK" also if i run "service qmail status" it says "qmail-send (pid 2880) is running..."
but, it really doesn't work... queue is getting bigger and smtp isnt responding...!
I have made a fresh plesk 12 install on a cent os 7. all is working fine except the SSL 443 port. on startup the following error message is thrown:

After server restart or sometimes apache stop or ixnetd restart its responding for a some random time, and then again it stops to respond. Plesk panel show it as stopped but qmail itself running in memory, and does other its work, it just stops responding at port 25, or responds with a huge delay.
I've tried change it to postfix, reconfigured with mchk, repaired with repair.sh -r, disabled and uninstalled parallels antivirus, antispam, dnsbl, disabled firewall, disabled smtp lock. Checked apache, dns. Enabled submission port which works when 25 port doesnt, but i need working 25 port.
Nothing solves problem, its just stops responding after some random time. There is no errors on maillog.
I think this problem occured after recent plesk microupdate, because i didn't do anything to server configuration in last months.
This article says it might be dnsbl [URL] .... but it disabled(from plesk panel) on my server, maybe there is way to focefully kill any relation to dnsbl?

update: xinetd restart is definitely brings smtp alive, but it goes off after random period of time (5min ~ couple hours)
