With Windows, it's simple to know when you need to upgrade the memory on a server. On Linux, apparently alot of RAM is reserved for cache?
Anyways, I currently have 2GB of RAM in a server and am wondering when the RAM should be upgraded. The server has became quite unstable and server load is always below 2, usually around 0.60 - 1.20.
Here's the current memory usage from PHPSysInfo (picture below):

Would you recommend I upgrade the RAM to help with stability?
At the moment, I am been hosted on an unmanaged server (dedicated).
My server provider is offering $25/hour for managed support.
My Kernal and Centos have not been updated for a while and I am looking to upgrade both of them. I am wondering how long would these 2 jobs normally take?
I'm trying to upgrade centos 3.8 to 4.5 but seem stuck here

why a VPS host wouldn't upgrade a VPS from CentOS 4.7 to 5.4? Is there some technical explanation that I'm not privy to?
Hello,
Unfortunately we cannot upgrade the OS on our VPS product. If you would like to go up to CentOS 5, you will need to purchase a dedicated server and we would then be able to migrate all of your accounts to that dedicated server. Is this something you are interested in? I can get you over to our sales team to discuss getting a dedicated server if you would like.
Regards,
xxxxxxxxxxx
I replied asking if they offered CentOS 5 VPS and this was his reply:
Hello,
Yes, that is correct. As far as I know, that is in development, but I couldn't even begin to speculate when that will be finalized.
Did you wish to be upgraded to a dedicated server?
Regards,
xxxxxxxxxxx
Aside from the extremely annoying upsell at the end of each e.mail, I'm inclined to think I'm going to have to change VPS providers.
I am planning on upgrading to php 5. I really don't need to upgrade to mysql 5 but do you guys think I will face problems with PHP 5.2.9 and Mysql 4.1.20 working together...
I am planning on doing the upgrade like this (if I decide to upgrade PHP and MYSQL all together)

Currently running a server with a little less than 100 accounts, running 32 bit CentOS 4.6 on a single chip running a current version of Cpanel and we're going to upgrade to a two quad core chips, and I figured I'd take this time to upgrade to a 64 bit version of CentOS 5.1. Here's my question: We're running an old version of Apache, and PHP
and while all we have on the server now are wordpress blogs and a few forums, I have to confess a level of uninformed-ness when it comes to upgrading Apache and then transferring all the accounts.
These will be different machines, as I hope to make the backup/restore fairly seemless.
Should I upgrade Apache to the Apache2.* before I make the transfer, or does it matter? Same with PHP to PHP5.* There shouldn't be any conflicts, but I'm posting this because I haven't had to deal with it as yet and thought someone knew of an large issue I could be on the lookout.
Also, the RPM/Perl modules's I've installed over time. Uh, is there a "differential" list or am I going to have to create a list of the RPMs I've got now, and then check after I make the build on the new machine? There's probably a dozen or so ones specific to some applications on the server that aren't required for the core operation, and damned if I can remember which they were...
I have more worries, but most of it involves hand holding issues I think I'll work on privately, but if I do have any more questions, I'll add it to this thread.
I am trying to install Magento on my apache server. I am running into the dreaded mcrypt issue as Magento needs it to run. I have now been googling for the past few hours and have gotten nowhere.
Here are my details:
Linux Centos 5.5 PHP 5.3.3 x86_64 Plesk 12
I have tried installing all sorts of different repos and it just isn't working.
When I try to install using # yum install php-mcrypt I get the following:
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Package php-mysql is obsoleted by php-mysqlnd, trying to install php-mysqlnd-5.5.13-3.el5.remi.x86_64 instead --> Processing Dependency: php53-gd for package: psa-php53-configurator --> Processing Dependency: php53-imap for package: psa-php53-configurator
Last year I ordered a new server with Centos 4.3 and it had the kernel kernel 2.6.9-34.0.2ELsmp installed. It runned fine and I didn't update any packages since then.
Today I started getting a problem where both mysqld and kswapd0 uses very high amounts of CPU, spiking up to 100% and my memory usage is at 99% all the time. The problem seems exactly the same as the one mentioned in this thread.
In that thread the exact same kernel is said to be insecure and to cause this problem. I also came across a centOS bug that reports this problem with high cpu, mem usage and mysql & kswapd0 consuming all resources.
In the linked thread the person solved the problem by upgrading to kernel 2.6.9-42 using rpms but others recommended a newer kernel or a custom compiled kernel for CentOS.
Apparently when they used yum it said 34.0.2 was the latest kernel.
What should I do to upgrade the kernel, which version should i upgrade to, and where do I get it from? I won't be able to compile a custom kernel and I've only installed basic rpm packages before.
I have a Plesk host that I am tasked with upgrading. It started with openSUSE 11.4 on Plesk 10.4 and I have upgraded it all the way to openSUSE 12.2 on Plesk 11.09 (fixed minor issues with pop3d and mysql locking on the way). The next upgrade was supposed to be 11.5, but the option to upgrade it never shows up. I have re-instated our support license so I know the license is OK, and also checked that 11.5 supports openSUSE 12.2. The update log doesn't really tell me much either:
Code:
Release PLESK_12_1_18 contains no any build for this OS Release PLESK_12_1_17 contains no any build for this OS Release PLESK_12_1_16 contains no any build for this OS Release PLESK_12_1_15 contains no any build for this OS Release PLESK_12_1_14 contains no any build for this OS
While running the plesk auto installer script and upgrading I get the following error.
Components validation detected at least one important issue: Parallels Panel pre-upgrade check... dpkg-query: no packages found matching psa-atmail dpkg-query: no packages found matching psa-horde dpkg-query: no packages found matching libapache2-modsecurity WARNING: IP address registered in Plesk is invalid or broken: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Panel version: 11.5.30 Update #47, last updated at June 19, 2014 07:32 AM
I could not successfully upgrade glib-it's in use.
Sendmail was active..and using the library..and preventing me from upgrading.
Sadly...this simply may not be possible on my remote vps. Does bash and ssh use glib? If could shut down everything that was using it..I have a chance at pulling this off.
Over the weekend, I upgraded from Plesk 10.3 to Plesk 11.5, using the updater in the control panel. Everything seemed to go well. However, this morning I've noticed that some, not all, email accounts are having trouble logging into the server to send and receive mail. Other accounts are working fine.Via POP, I get this error: -ERR Temporary problem, please try again later
Via SMTP, I get this error: 535 auth failure
I see this in the maillog:
Jun 17 07:15:05 [server] courier-pop3d: LOGIN FAILED, user=[username], ip=[::ffff:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] Jun 17 07:15:05 [server] courier-pop3d: authentication error: Input/output error
And this... Jun 17 07:24:50 [server] smtp_auth: FAILED: [email address] - password incorrect from [host] [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
I replaced the server name, username, host, and IP in the above.
Here are the steps I've tried so far. - Changing the password using the control panel. - Updating the number of daemons in authdaemonrc - Restarting the services
I just upgraded my Plesk on Ubuntu (vServer) yesterday. But after the upgrade I couldn't login to the Panel anymore because all I get when I try to reach the panel (https://panel.examplesite.com:8443) is a white screen.
I rebooted the server and restarted the panel as well as Apache several times with no change.
Its also upgrading Apache from 2.2 to 2.4 and after installation, it break my Apache configuration and getting configuration errors when adding domains from Plesk etc.
Is there any proper way to upgrade PHP 5.5 in Plesk 12.0(Ubuntu 12.04)...
I have a VPS on Webfusion which auto upgraded last night to Plesk 11.5.30 #45. However, I used to have the domain registrar, 123-reg manage my DNS & now since the upgrade I've lost access to all emails & ftp access but the domains still work ok.
whether I should delete all DNS records at 123-reg & point to my VPS now? The DNS parameters in Plesk appear to be different to 123-reg. I
Following the update from 11 to Plesk 12 (and installing latest Ubuntu fixes), the Plesk panel access is broken. Welcome page says:Can not load key: key is empty.And of course, no way to login the mgt interface. All services appear up, so this is only affecting the panel web service.
Fishing out the panel.log, it appears to be at a lower level than I initially thought (see below): experiencing issues after updating from 11 to 12 on Ubuntu (12)?

After finishing the upgrade from 11.5 to 12.0.18 I checked the system time which was wrong and no timezone was selected ....
So I switched to my timezone (GMT +3) and corrected the clock from the above settings cause it was 5 minutes behind saved .... since then the time is showing 1 hour later the selected one. like GMT+4.
No matter if I change it manually it returns there.
in order for the server to work correctly i changed the timezone to GMT+2. OK the time is corrected - although wrong cause it should be 1 hour earlier, but anyways Now all incoming email messages still show one hour late as received date. So I tried restarting courier-imap
# service courier-imap restart courier-imap: unrecognized service
