suntrop Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Hi guys Since last night I have trouble with my cloud server. It is a VPS with 2 CPU, 2 GB RAM and just one small website installed (about 30 pages, nothing fancy and less than 50 visitors/day). I am not a server expert, but I would believe these resource should be fine for PW (3.0.42). The hosting company just blames the website script and something uses too much RAM. It worked fine the last six month and I didn't change anything the last 30 days. Is there anything I can do to double check? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szabesz Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Hi A VPS (running cPanel perhaps?) might list what is eating up resources. Have you checked that info? Also, it is not free and if you really have not changed anything then it might not be of good use in this case, but it might help: https://processwire.com/api/modules/profiler-pro/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would ask for 2nd or 3rd level support, first of all. Do they provide some sort of server health monitoring tools? It sounds like you don't have the necessary rights to install this yourself, but I'm sure your host uses something like that: http://www.dnsstuff.com/free-server-monitoring-tools 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergio Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Did you install any new module or are you running any complex cron job? Ask the hosting company to send you a log so you can see what's happening. Usually is MySQL the usual suspect of using too much ram, not PW.

suntrop Posted January 27, 2018 Author Share Posted January 27, 2018 Thanks for your help! 2 hours ago, szabesz said: running cPanel perhaps? No cPanel, a custom made tool. I had installed Tracy Debugger, but couldn't see anything wrong. Maybe I will check the ProDevTools. 2 hours ago, dragan said: I would ask for 2nd or 3rd level support, first of all.

Unfortunately there is no monitoring but I do have rights to install software. Had New Relic on my mind, but you link looks like a quite nice list. I am not that familiar with installing apps on the terminal, but I can clone the server and "test ruin" everything 2 hours ago, Sergio said: Did you install any new module or are you running any complex cron job?

It is a rather small business website. Just usual pages like "About", "Team" etc. There is almost nothing special in there. I will check on MySQL! Currently the site works fine. But I increased memory to 4 GB. I find it hard to believe I am using 4 GB for a tiny website 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I run a medium website in a VPS with 2GB and hardly use more than 70% of the RAM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
