Hi, Login to SSH, type "top" and hit enter. Paste the result here That will show you what top processes are using your server, and you can kill them by typing K and then the process number
Well , It maybe a DDOS attack to your server . What CMSs are you using on your server ? WP , Joomla or ... ?
One thing is sure that high of server load isnt normal and umm yes please post your results of "top" command
I Killed Some Processes now the load is * Load Averages: 0.13 0.19 0.14 But My site is not opening, one of its table is crashed... Warning: Table './links' is marked as crashed and should be repaired in /home/jackpea/public_html/libs/db.php on line 242
Fixed Tables Myself But the server load now is : * Load Averages: 155.84 168.20 151.49 I have that site running on Pligg on my server its taking too much of load.. i dont know why... Load Now on my refresh is * Load Averages: 105.52 152.07 147.03
Thats it ! The issue is only from Pligg . Im running 4 sites powered by Pligg and Im experiencing the same issue . Now Im working on that . Hope I can somehow resolve it .
You should probably try to optimize your Apache, PHP and MySQL configuration based on your hardware and daily usage. There are plenty of tutorials on the web on how to do that.
A lot ot pleople requested to show the exit of the top command, if you dont give more details i dont think anyone can help you more. To see if its a DDoS you can show the exit of the following: netstat -plan | awk '/tcp/ || /udp/' | awk '{print $5}' | awk -F : '{print $1}' | sort | uniq -c| sort -n
You seems to have problems with mysql, you should check why is using that amount of resources. Your mysql server is using 185% of cpu. Somthing that you can check, you my.cnf (MySQL configuration file). Check if you scripts are using searchs without index, etc
Run mysqltuner.pl and post the recommendations http://www.howtoforge.com/tuning-mysql-performance-with-mysqltuner
Just one other thing to check, and that would be your mail queue. I've seen it many times before when a servers load spikes, and MySQL and the web server seem to be normal loads, that the mail server itself is struggling, and that makes the loads jump quickly. You have not stated if you are using a control panel at all for this server, so I cannot make a recommendation on how to check the queue size. Chris
Hi, The problem has been fixed. Here's a screenshot of your CPU load after the fix: Also your site now loads very quickly: http://jackpea.com/ Please msg me on MSN to confirm. Thanks, Shmuel
