brianlange Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I have a server that I use for our searching through a 300 megabyte text index. On this server apache goes down about every other day for no apparent reason. There's nothing unusual in the error files. When I restart apache everything works fine. When a search is performed it can take 20-30 seconds to return a result. Could this long of process cause apache to crash? There's not a lot of searches being performed so while each process can be intensive the server is not under very heavy load. Thanks in advance for any suggestions on how to go about trouble shooting this issue.

steviewdr Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 I'd say you would want to setup some sort of server monitoring. I don't know if your on linux or windows. Anyways: Use Monit to monitor services such as apache, and it can restart apache if it stops responding I'd recommend to use Munin to monitor the health of the server including memory and bwidth, processes etc. -steve Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/192977-apache-server-going-down/#findComment-1016683 Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianlange Posted February 23, 2010 Author Share Posted February 23, 2010 Thanks for the advice. I'll look into using Monit. I'm on a linux server. -Brian Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/192977-apache-server-going-down/#findComment-1016874 Share on other sites More sharing options...
