There is an magic tool called apache.log
Do you get any specific error on the browser?
Check Apache logs. That may very well point to php logs.
Php Apache logs best
Or post here for more fixings
Good for you?
None of you gets the joke? I actually got free domain name for this with sharkserve.rs
Not fun if you are joking on women drivers......
Do not restart Apache.
Its your fault
What? I think he has to restart to restart Apache because it stops serving content.
sudo apt-get remove apache2
sudo apt-get install nginx
That worked. Thank you so much!
Wordpress crashes - well, that was very accurate.
Honestly, man. What do you think this place is? If you're hosting websites, you should know that no one can truly help you without something useful (logs, error messages, SOMETHING, ANYTHING!).
Yeah... and here's what's great about this:
@quick posted his solution at 12:54 p.m. and @stefeman said it worked at 12:55 p.m. even though:
Emphasis mine.
:emoji shrug icon here:
Just make a cronjob that restarts apache every 12 hours xd
Now.. this guy gets it xD
@CConner well said.
I thought "Well, no shit", but I like your wording much better.
Don't worry. He'll have Apache AutoBoot (tm) installed shortly.
Apache crashing means the processing is being overloaded, which hints to something malicious injected in your site or server that is causing the spike.
First check your mailq and see if the server is sending out SPAM.
Check your Apache visit and error logs for the time right before Apache stopped/crashed
Install Wordfence/Sucuri Sitecheck to scan your site.
Run a maldet scan on your site and file system to see if any malicious scripts are detected.
Restarting Apache is not the solution, you got to find the real problem that's causing it.
Most likely someone is hammering the rpc script. This brings Web servers to their knees.
Some people just rename or delete that script, but it's required for things like the mobile app and other stuff.
You can setup fail2ban to block it if abused.
Sounds like a good way to start checking. Install Wordfence.
