DA Baracus Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 There seems to have been an influx of new aliases over the past week or so, which in my view is unquestionably* causing this issue * Ok, perhaps somewhat questionably Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds familiar. Many Sellick fans placing small bets on P&B going into admin is causing this IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boulderdomb Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Maybe put P&B on a load balance and have two dedicated servers rather than the one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have previously split database and web services across two servers, it didn't really make a whole lot of difference, albeit our database back then caused us a lot of issues that have all now been resolved. Load Balancing the front end web services is something I've looked at but it is further complicated by the forum attachments/uploads that would then need to be synchronised across the boxes or to a shared storage area using rsync. The server itself never goes down, it's just Apache that is stalling, and there is no obvious reason why it happens. Error logs are fairly inconclusive and it doesn't matter what mode we are running Apache in. I've got a call with an Apache guy today so will see how that goes.

If they put you on hold, and this isn't the hold music, they should all lose their jobs immediately. Fucking great song, by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Just as well no-one has been winding up Dumbarton fans about how successful they are running a football message board. Would be embarrassing for the board to go to shit round about the same time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Div Posted January 10, 2018 Author Share Posted January 10, 2018 I've hired a geek to review this all. My level of geekness is not sufficient to fix this and I feel like I'm making things worse. Hopefully some movement on this later today. #PrayForTheGeek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
