linux - Apache MySQL Server Crashing - Large number of connections from localhost

itemprop="text">


I'm running a 2GB Centos
5.9 server with the standard LAMP setup. I'm running a wordpress website so it's nothing
to demanding performance wise.



However the MySQL
server seems to keep crashing as I get an Error Connecting To Database when I try to
access my wordpress site.
I checked the CPU and it's running at 100% and the
RAM is also at 100%.



I've tried




service mysqld
restart





and
everything goes back to normal for about 10 minutes and then it crashes
again.



I've also tried adjusting the my.cnf file
and also httpd.conf file but this hasn't fixed
it.



When I run




netstat -ntu |
awk '{print $5}' | cut -d':' -f1 | grep "^[0-9]" | sort
-g | uniq
-c





I
get the following
output:





1 31.222.135.11
1 50.56.142.152
1 50.57.61.11
1
78.136.44.13
2 78.19.241.93

201
127.0.0.1



Why
are there 201 connections on my loopback address?
Thanks for your help in
advance.



Answer




First of all, you should check if you are
able to connect directly to the MySQL server via the mysql client. Just in case you have
reached the maximum number of connections or there are other server problems (out of
memory, bad disk etc etc)



If you are able to
talk straight to the database, you should check the databases' processlist and see if
anything is taking to much to run etc etc




Check your MySQL's error log.



Lastly, check you apache2 php.ini if the
following are enabled (if the problem is too many connections to the
database):



mysql.allow_persistent
= On
mysql.max_persistent = -1
mysql.max_links =
-1

linux - iDRAC6 Virtual Media native library cannot be loaded

When attempting to mount Virtual Media on a iDRAC6 IP KVM session I get the following error: I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and: $ javaws -version Java(TM) Web Start 1.6.0_16 $ uname -a Linux aud22419-linux 2.6.28-15-generic #51-Ubuntu SMP Mon Aug 31 13:39:06 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ firefox -version Mozilla Firefox 3.0.14, Copyright (c) 1998 - 2009 mozilla.org On Windows + IE it (unsurprisingly) works. I've just gotten off the phone with the Dell tech support and I was told it is known to work on Linux + Firefox, albeit Ubuntu is not supported (by Dell, that is). Has anyone out there managed to mount virtual media in the same scenario?

ubuntu - Monitoring CPU, Mem, disk, on a single server

I've been looking for a simple starter solution for monitoring my [currently] single server hosted solution. Other than Nagios and similar, are there other good (simple) solutions people are using? Answer Everything depends on what you want. For example Munin is very simple, you can install and configure it in less then 10 minutes (on one server), it can sends alarms, make graphs from monitoring cpu, mem. apache connections, eaccellerator, disk io and many many more (it has many plugins). But if you are planning in future get some more machines, munin may not be enough. For example in munin you cant monitor state of individual processes, can't monitor changes in files (for security purpose). So if you wanna only see what is the utilization of basics parameters on your server and don't plan to buy some more servers Munin is what you are looking for, but if you wanna be alarmed when some of your service is down, take more control on what is happeninig on...

hp proliant - Smart Array P822 with HBA Mode?

We get an HP DL360 G8 with an Smart Array P822 controller. On that controller will come a HP StorageWorks D2700 . Does anybody know, that it is possible to run the Smart Array P822 in HBA mode? I found only information about the P410i, who can run HBA. If this is not supported, what you think about the LSI 9207-8e controller? Will this fit good in that setup? The Hardware we get is used but all original from HP. The StorageWorks has 25 x 900 GB SAS 10K disks. Because the disks are not new I would like to use only 22 for raid6, and the rest for spare (I need to see if the disk count is optimal or not for zfs). It would be nice if I'm not stick to SAS in future. As OS I would like to install debian stretch with zfs 0.71 as file system and software raid. I have see that hp has an page for debian to. I would like to use hba mode because it is recommend, that zfs know at most as possible about the disk, and I'm independent from the raid controller. For us zfs have many benefits, ...
