Alpha Posted May 12, 2003 Share Posted May 12, 2003 Currently or should I say unfortunattely our Apache Server is taking way too many system resources. So if you have ever used a 14.4K modem, this is how it feels. My server admin at this time is working on it with some coleuges. Hopefuly emulforums will be back up to full speed in 24 - 48 hours. Between this time, we recommend you talk in your direct connect hub... dchub://emulforums.servegame.com *Crosses His Fingers* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 Well the slowness has been fixed. We are now once again, "Living in The Fast Lane!" Thanks for everyones support which got us through this 24 hour catastrophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 Slowness back again. We are fixing it still.It seems that we thought we fixed it, but we were wrong. Here is all the information on the problem, I don't know anymore: After a certain amount of time, httpd (the Apache webserver daemon program) would use up a lot of memory so it would bog down the server. By setting up softlimit to limit the amount of memory each httpd process can use, we can hopefully prevent this from happening again. There are several possible reasons httpd processes have been growing to exceptional sizes: * A hacker has been launching DoS attacks. * httpd, mod_php, mysqld, or one of the scripts a hostee runs has been having a race condition causing it to use up lots of resources. * httpd has a major memory leak problem. * Something we can't seem to think of at the moment. We'll know by tomorrow if softlimit works in preventing the server from being bogged down. None of this stuff is directly towards EmulForums. My server has over 30 hosted websites and we are just one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
