| [12:59:38] | <botlfarm[m]> | Hey all, Just an update on the 507 Insufficient Storage error from the other day. After contacting my host and tracking it down looked like I was exceeding my Entry Process allotment of 10. Any Idea if this possibly is a farmOS issue or I have something else running scripts somewhere? For background Im on a shared host server and I also run a very basic 4 page static website from the same account. Seems odd to be hitting |
| [12:59:38] | <botlfarm[m]> | these limits when there is such minimal usage. |
| [14:34:37] | <mstenta[m]> | @botlfarm: Huh. I'm not too familiar with how that works but I imagine that means you're limited to a certain number of running processes? |
| [14:35:13] | <mstenta[m]> | That could explain why you're mostly seeing the issue in the map loading... each layer is a separate request to the server, which could mean separate processes. |
| [14:35:23] | <mstenta[m]> | Or perhaps combined with traffic to your other site it's using them up |
| [14:35:38] | <mstenta[m]> | Are you still experiencing it consistently? |
| [14:35:45] | <mstenta[m]> | Or does it seem to work sometimes and not others? |
| [14:36:21] | <botlfarm[m]> | That's what it looks like. Every time I refresh the farmos dashboard I get a spike on the "entry process" |
| [14:37:00] | <mstenta[m]> | if you "toggle map" (to close the map) and then reload does it make a difference? (won't necessarily help when you want to use the map, but curious...) |
| [14:37:11] | <mstenta[m]> | (pretty sure the layers only load when the map is visible) |
| [14:49:48] | <botlfarm[m]> | Actually looks like it may have been something else on my hosting account also affecting this. I spent the last hour deleting old (what I thought were inactive things) and im no longer getting a spike when I refresh the page |
| [14:50:16] | <mstenta[m]> | Oh interesting! |
| [14:50:23] | <botlfarm[m]> | I don't see a difference with the map toggled or not though. |
| [14:50:25] | <mstenta[m]> | Could those old things have been using up processes? |
| [14:51:04] | <mstenta[m]> | Oh maybe I'm actually wrong about that (re: toggle) |
| [14:51:16] | <mstenta[m]> | Looks like those layers are loaded regardless |
| [14:52:21] | <botlfarm[m]> | possibly they could have been using resources, but i really only saw a spike when I refreshed the dashboard or areas page of farmOS. very odd but seems to be fixed whatever the issue was |
| [14:52:32] | <mstenta[m]> | yea huh... |
| [14:52:36] | <botlfarm[m]> | may be time to look for another host anyway |
| [14:52:39] | <mstenta[m]> | i wonder if it could have been combined with traffic to your other site? |
| [14:52:50] | <mstenta[m]> | mm yea, seems like a pretty low limit anyway |
| [14:52:50] | <botlfarm[m]> | possibly |
| [14:53:16] | <mstenta[m]> | maybe it's time to take the VPS plunge! ;-) |
| [14:53:36] | <botlfarm[m]> | I think so, will fix my upgrade issue also |
| [14:53:36] | <mstenta[m]> | Linode servers start at only $5/mo |
| [14:53:52] | <botlfarm[m]> | I will check it out |
| [14:54:21] | <botlfarm[m]> | I guess that is the next thing I need to learn. how hard could it be.... |
| [14:55:20] | <mstenta[m]> | One thing to consider would be leaving your website on the current host, but setting up a Linode for farmOS and just restricting access to it so you don't really need to worry about security |
| [14:55:34] | <mstenta[m]> | (public vs private) |
| [14:56:31] | <mstenta[m]> | could also explore hosting farmOS on a little computer in your house, and point a DNS entry at your home IP address |
| [14:56:47] | <mstenta[m]> | lots of options! :-) |
| [14:57:09] | <mstenta[m]> | just make sure you've got a backup strategy... wherever you end up |
| [14:57:54] | <botlfarm[m]> | My host was recently bought out and I don't like the new company, so I probably will move everything if im making the switch |
| [14:57:58] | <mstenta[m]> | or... leave your existing farmOS 1.x as-is, and start setting up a 2.x server ;-) |
| [14:58:44] | <botlfarm[m]> | not a bad idea |
| [14:59:23] | <mstenta[m]> | gotta run! happy to bounce ideas later! |
| [14:59:36] | <botlfarm[m]> | Thanks! |
