Am I being DDOS'ed? {HELP}

Hi members, my site micromkv.com start loading slowly due to high traffic. The resources on VPS all used up. Basically the 1GB RAM and now it's loading very very slowly!

So, Am I being DDOS'ed?! And If yes, how to check that?

I've Kloxo instead of Cpanel.

All help will be appreciated.

  • Have you checked Apache/lighty logs to see what's going on? Do your statistics show a traffic spike -- maybe your site got linked somewhere?

  • Keyword : High Traffic and 1GB RAM

    Check your log and use nginx if possible.

  • these are the logs - http://prntscr.com/1ypqyq

    'My website is loading slowly' isn't enough information to make any sort of assessment of the situation. Have you checked your web logs or checked inbound traffic by connection counting with netstat or traffic levels with iftop?

    LOL, not that log

  • Seems like you post copyrighted content on your website. Of course that attracts bad people.

  • Sorry, I have no knowledge, how to do that.

    No offence, but perhaps then an unmanaged VPS isn't really suitable for you?

    Nothing looks very untoward in that short log extract, but there's dozens more things that could be causing it. Anything from the number of concurrent connections, child processes spawned, php configuration, wordpress configuration etc.

    Possible solutions:

    • Put CloudFlare in front of it
    • Put it under Nginx webserver
    • Put Varnish cache in front of it

    In one sentence: cache your content so the server doesn't have to generate the output every request.

  • Yes, it's true! :/

  • Kloxo and Kloxo-MR by default only allow limited connections for the webserver. You need to edit the httpd config, and change the maxclients amount to be a lot higher.

  • will try those, thanks,.

    This. Also, install W3 Total Cache and follow the myriad tutorials on the Google to configure it. It's not a cure-all solution, but it will drastically reduce the load on your server by itself.

    If you mean 'maxclients' in Apache it's not 'protect mechanism' but how much Apache handle instances in memory. As I know, only nginx and hiawatha have 'protect mechanism' feature.
