Server Troubles again?, Are the bots back? External links Options

[MedEvil]

john3voltas contacted me, because he had trouble accessing the site because of timeouts.
I experience also problems, though a refresh or two usually solves it.

Anybody else having trouble?

I have this problems since over a week!
Sometimes i must refresh 20 times or more!

Hmm.. how strange.

John3voltas is also from Portugal and I don't notice any issues thought I get online using either cable ADSL at the house and wireless 3G connections while on the street.

Firefox caches the images and similar resources to avoid redownloads so the page loads extremely fast.

But our server is currently using around 1Gb of RAM. Is it possible that someone is pushing the server too much?

Will reboot the machine to free some memory.

Yes, that's about the time i have troubles too.

btw. FTP seems to be affected too. Lot's of timeouts lately, especialy during the day.

[Nuno Brito]

Ok, thanks for the feedback.

I'll take note of this matter and see if I can install some resource stats to see what can be happening.

We never needed before as the server always supported all the load, it's time to see where and how it is being used.

In the meanwhile, I would recommend using FileZilla as FTP client to upload files. One the best features is that it will keep a list of files that failed for some reason to be uploaded. This way you don't need to repeat the whole upload for the project but only try to upload the files that failed in the first place.

A different topic which also appeared last days:

As known, I'm an old man and my eyes are not the best any more.

In the past the 'classic' WB theme was readable for me.

But since some days a lot of text changed to 'light gray' or 'any light blue', e.g. the member description in the left, or links like 'View New Posts'.

Sometimes this seems unreadable for me.

Peter, do you mean that the classic skin look has changed?

This is probably a different matter. No changes have been done to the classical skin ever since the adsense option for the user panel some weeks ago.

Added to my list as well.

Seems to be so.

As far as I remember, I did not do any change in my OS's display, themes, etc.

The skin still looks ok to me. Nothing to see of your problems, Peter.



@Nuno
Filezilla is way to big, imo for a little project updating now and then.
A smaller ftp clients works too.

And a new problem.
