I am experiencing issues since moving to a https / secure connection, but don't know if it's related. Once it gets to the point I have 900-1000 on my site (going by real time stats on analytics) my site stops loading up despite server load and memory usage being low. It says 'establishing secure connection' for around 20-30 seconds and then times out. It only starts to load again once the number has reduced to around 800. I don't believe this happened before I switched to https. Does the free cPanel certificate that my hosts use have any limits that could cause this? Any ideas why this happens?

I had been using PHP 5.3 for some time and since 4.1.19 had a suggestion about upgrading to a higher PHP version, I started upgrading things to be able to upgrade to highest version available. First I upgraded to EasyApache4, then to PHP 7.1 . At first I thought everthing was working fine till I realised that Opcache was not I realised that PHP 7.1 did not have a DSO handler option and Opcache was not supported on suexec and cgi. Googling a bit I found that PHP-FPM was mostly used and recommended and found a way to switch to it. Although I have seen some articles telling it was possible to make Opcache work with PHP-FPM I could not manage it. Now I am runni…

Hi, A few days ago I logged into my cloud VPS WHM and was prompted to install updated Modsec rules from OWASP: https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Category:OWASP_ModSecurity_Core_Rule_Set_Project https://documentation.cpanel.net/display/CKB/OWASP+ModSecurity+CRS I installed Vendor rule set and all seemed okay but I've since become aware of complaints from my IPS members that they cannot post attachments without getting a 403 Error. I have been able to replicate the issue simply by trying to post a reply with an upload image attachments; I get a 403 Forbidden Error. I'm not too experienced with this but the Modsec Tools Hitlist in WHM shows no hits. I …

I want to give my members who contribute to downloads an easy URL to distribute. I am thinking it can be done with rewrites in the niginx config file but not sure how to make it work. For example how can I make https://invisionpower.com/adriano-faria/ lead to https://invisionpower.com/profile/114025-adriano-faria/content/?type=downloads_file help appreciated. Thank you

Recently converted our old forum from an old snitz board with 160,000 posts and had to do it on localhost because of errors and timeouts. Now I need to put it all online. Can I just copy all of the files from local host to server and publish 450MB database. Besides conf_global.php and updating license key is there anything else I need to know or do? Also can I change the key after as it's in the CP? BTW: To convert from snitz was mssql convert to mysql then import to phpbb2 with scripts then parse data with scripts then convert to phpbb3 then convert ipb4 then parse posts data again with scripts. Ugly long process but nice result. Thx. Mi…

I installed memcache on my server but when switching to it in ACP I get "You must provide at least one server.". The server address I entered is : 127.0.0.1:11211 I checked to see if memcache is running with the following command: ps ax | grep memcached | grep -Ev grep which returns: 29969 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/bin/memcached -m 64 -p 11211 -u nobody -l 127.0.0.1 So I am using the correct port. It's also seems to be enabled in PHP, running the following command php -i | grep memcache returns: /etc/php5/cli/conf.d/20-memcached.ini, memcached memcached support => enabled libmemcached version => 1.0.16 memcached.compr…

Hi My community runs on Mariadb 10.1, PHP 7. I recently converted all tables to InnoDB, and confirmed all tables and columns are utf8mb4 after running the "enable utf8mb4" option in admin. After running the utf8mb4 I still see the enable utf8mb4 option in admin. If I go to support and click on something isn't working right I get this warning: " Your database is currently configured to use single-byte UTF-8 Encoding. Some non-common symbols (such as historical scripts, music symbols and Emoji) require 4-Byte UTF-8 Encoding. If you want users to be able to post these symbols, your database needs to be converted." I changed the server character …

I have some feed pages with 9 rss feeds per page. But loading is an issue if no one has visited the page in a little while as the new widget caches are pulled. So I am wondering how best to go about using a cron job to load urls for me every 5 minutes or so. Therefore making sure no one gets slow loading as the cron will pull the new cache. I came up with this but I need someone who knows what they are doing to help. wget -r -l 3 -O - http://url >/dev/null 2>&1 ^^ will this work?

Hi I am working on a move from MySQL to MariaDB. At the same time I want to tidy my database. I hope you can help? My DB is 5.5.54. I plan to upgrade to MariaDB 10.1 in stages (Mysql to 5.5.54 to MariaDB 5.5.54, then to MariaDB 10.1). I will also be starting on Amazon Linux and ending on CentOS. In my current conf_global.php I have these lines: 1. My database is a mix of MyISAM and InnoDB tables. I don't know how it happened, but it did. I know I need to be aware of full text indexes. I know I need to convert each table via MySQL to InnoDB, but before I run the conversion queries.... From my conf_global.php; $INFO['mysql_tbl_type'] …

My 3.4.x installation was happily ticking until the last couple of weeks when I have started noticing delay when post submitting and liking content. - Loading and reading - no problems - Editing - no problems - Submitting in new threads - usually fast - Submitting and liking in old threads - slow I felt that it is somehow related to notifications, because otherwise I do not understand why submitting is slow, but edit is fast. I assumed it is because submitting needs to send a notification to all thread subscribers and thats a lot of people, especially in the large topics. I tried to limit the stored amount of notifications, but it didn't help. Tr…
