I also run a forum which gets about 500-1000 unique visits a day on the same server
Lately on my xfilesharping pro website and forum website i have been getting
500 Internal Server Error.
In the email it says:
fs.cgi: ERROR <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>500 Internal Server Error</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Internal Server Error</h1>
<p>The server encountered an internal error or
misconfiguration and was unable to complete
your request.</p>
It does not happen all the time. Most times my website works fine. This had started happening since yesterday. Before yesterday I've never had this problem and i have not changed anything recently.
I am on a VPS Host Gator Level 3
http://www.hostgator.com/vps-hosting/
1.13GHZ 768 MB 30 GiG Bandwitch 500 GIG
I contacted HostGator and this is what they said
When I refresh the page 4 or 5 times the MySQL load CPU load gets to 100% and the memory usage hangs at about 20% of the total available on the server. There are other services using memory but nothing nearly as high as MySQL when that page is being loaded.
Can someone give me some suggestions?
