websites stop working after php-fpm is enabled

[Vikhyat Singh]

I need to enable php-fpm for a particular user and after I enable it, it works for a minute correctly but then all sites do not respond at all.

I have already reinstalled my dedicated server twice and tried cloudlinux too.
After disabling php fpm, all sites start working. server has 256GB RAM and 10 cores cpu.


Steps to reproduce:

I login to 2087
and go to multiphp manager and enable php-fpm

Hi @Vikhyat Singh

Is anything of note logged to any of the following logs when this occurs?

/etc/apache2/logs/error_log

:

(replace ea-phpXX with your ea-php version)

/opt/cpanel/ea-phpXX/root/usr/var/log/php-fpm/error.log

Hi

I have also created a support ticket
10217693

What I think is something is related to resource limit in php.ini or configuration file as first the websites become a bit slow to load then very slow and then stop responding at all. It is a dedicated server and has 256GB dedicated RAM with 10 cores intel E5 processor.

This seems to be something

How much should I raise?

That just indicates that your server is reaching the max_children - you can raise that to suit your needs. The following forum post may be useful:

I'm also following the ticket for you. Any updates there I will add to this thread.

Thanks!
