There was more to it than just that... but yes... .I fat fingered a host file... and didn't see it for ages.

The more, because it is on nginx module... you need to make some changes to the config files as well.

However!!!! I don't know what I am doing ... DON'T do as I say or do!


Again thanks!

Hi, I moved a fileserver from one machine to another. I am consolidating machines. i.e. moving server 1 - fileserver1 to server 2 (fileserver 1) Fileserver 1 has nginx mod. Server 2 has a fileserver already on it (w nginx mod) on Server 2: nohup rsync -r -a -v -e "ssh -l me" s5.filehost.ws...

Thanks,
I tried looking on the site for how to implement it, but haven't seen anything.
How did you solve this?


I appreciate the help,

Ok, For a long time we have been running a bizarrely high load averages. The site used to handle 8 times the traffic without breaking a sweat. I was completely perplexed, but the sibsoft guys found out what was happening. Our login page was getting hammered by a single request over and over sometime...

Thanks

I am interested in knowing how can I 'copy' a file from one user to another. i.e. I have in my files a story I wrote. And I would like to give a copy to my friend... i.e. give him a link and have it show up in his 'my files' as well. Without him downloading and uploading. I tried remote upload... bu...

Sessions...
It was the Sessions table that appeared to be gumming everything up.

I had to switch the Sessions table over to innodb.
(and I cleaned a lot of it out).


Now it works goodish.

Thanks for the help

Thanks for the answer! I am delving into it now. I also found a cool tool called mysqltuner. wget http://mysqltuner.com/mysqltuner.pl Part of the reason I believed the mysql cpu usage was the reason for my slow system, is because it wasn't using memory.. so I imagine it sitting there spinning it's w...

Hey all, I have a couple of questions, which I think are linked to my site being slow. 1) Why is mysql running at 100% cpu... there is plenty of memory? 2) why do I have 300+ locked queries at any particular time? The queries are: INSERT INTO Sessions (session_id,usr_id,last_time) DELETE FROM Sessio...

Thanks,
I will give that a try and report back.

It is weird the remote upload FLIES!!! Megabytes per sec.
But upload through the browser is slower than watching caramel.
Less than 100kb.

I am uploading on port 81.
I tried it on different machines (on different networks),
so it isn't just my machine at home.

Thanks,

I had initially thought to use only nginx on the fileserver, until I found out that the status bar does not work on nginx. Why is that btw? So, then I set up apache to work on another port to do the uploads. The problem is I must have done something wrong with either perl or apache. The upload speed...

I didn't see anything about this on the forum.

I would like to change the wait time to download to zero, if someone has downloaded an offsite file. Does anyone know how to do this? Or, has done this?


Thanks,

I was going to go off... but, then I realize, my mistake. I had actually wrote a complete message that I didn't see posted. What my actual question was (well the help bit...but also), how many filehandles is a good number for a site that has about 60,000 hits a day. btw... I just gave it a randomly ...
