Title: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Shockwave on July 20, 2009
I am having problems accessing this site tonight and I am trying to establish if it's the host or my computer.

slow?...hummmm... maybe the word 'SLUGGISH' would fit best...

have you got a recent backup?
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Shockwave on July 20, 2009
I backed the site up at 1pm today actually :)

It seems like our server is under heavy load at the moment, I apologise for this temporary issue.
I have to go up to bed soon, but if anyone is still here please post here and let me know how long it goes on for.

Thanks.

(I am secretly pissed off that I just renewed the hosting for another year!!)

A bit earlier it took like forever to load the pages, but it seems ok now.

Maybe they sorted the problem now.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: zawran on July 20, 2009
Yes it seems like the problem has gone away :)

Yup, yesterday I experienced also some slow connections.
Right now everything seems to work just fine again!

Post by: Shockwave on July 21, 2009
I am glad it's fixed now, sorry for the slow site folks.

Site was down for a bit late (but before midnight) last night. Are we stuck with this host? Not that big a problem, just annoying if you're halfway through a topic, or posting at the time.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Shockwave on July 29, 2009
Yes we have this host for another 11 months.. The biggest problem that I have is that there are several sites hosted here and it will be insanely difficult to swap them over.

I think that I will be moving DBF next year though.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Yaloopy on July 29, 2009
Can see how that'd be a problem. More sites hosted = more sites down at the one time, though. That said, it's not that noticeable, and it's a pretty big load on the server (I guess?) at some times.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Shockwave on July 29, 2009
Let's put it this way, all the domains together have transferred over 8.5gb this month, DBF has done 4.5gb of that, we've served 137,000 pages this month, generating 1.5 million hits this month including bots.

As it stands we are becoming a medium level site, it's quite a nice problem to have really.
In practical terms it means that I will probably have to split the hosting of the domains I host over a few plans within the next 12 months.

I imagine that Hostpappa will get pissed off that we are using some bandwidth now :D

The site isnt really slow here... but last days i had sometimes the problem when entered the url of this site in firefox, that the site was not reachable... a few seconds/mins later it worked again...

Why? Don't you pay by the half GB for that stuff? More profit to them

What usually happens with shared hosting is that when your site becomes busy it is a big drain on resources.
They mkay say unlimited bandwidth and storage, but if you go for a VPS or dedicated server there are clearly defined limits.

Hostpappa could probably host 15 small clients using the resources we're taking up, eventually hosts have a habit of saying thanks but no thanks, find someone else..

Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Shockwave on August 04, 2009
According to your tracert it seems like the site failed at the host.
I had a database error message by email which means that the number of sql connections must have been maxed out.

Cheers for the heads up though mate. Please keep posting this stuff as I send it all on to the hosts whenever I need to complain.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Jim on August 04, 2009
The problem was with
new4-new11-racc1.new.seabone.net [195.22.216.235]
not with hostpapa

@Jim:
Why do you think or how/where do you know/see that the problem was at new4-new11-racc1.new.seabone.net [195.22.216.235] ?

@Shockwave:
About 5 minutes ago, this website was again not reachable for me (this time the message: site not found)...
two minutes later all works fine again

->Va!n - because your ping trace shows there's 90ms hop between these two servers.  In comparison, hostpapa responded to their upstream provider in 1ms.

From your description it looks like it's dropping packets between those two nodes, causing sporadic failures.  Whois tells me seabone.net is owned by networksolutions.com.

Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: va!n on August 07, 2009
yeah... now i am lucky i can reach this website... yesterday (friday) i was the complete day at home and have tried again and again (over the full day until now) to reach this site... everytime without luck... :(  Thats pretty bad... (for existing users and esp for newbies wanna visit this site the first time)

I dont know why this happens here.. i have often tried to reconnec, to get another ip... all other websites here worked fine and fast like pouet and co... just only this site was not reachable (just a blank empty browser window)

Cant we do something to solve this problem in future before loosing members / newbies?

Post by: Shockwave on August 08, 2009
I am sorry, I would really like to fix the problem but I have paid for the hosting for the year and I can't afford to swap it at the moment. If the problem is with networksolutions.net as Jim points out above then that might be a problem your end anyway?
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: va!n on August 08, 2009
i will try to contact networksolutions.net and tell about the problems... maybe they have a solution that this problem get fixed hopefully very soon
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Shockwave on August 08, 2009
Let us know how you get on mate, I mean it is obviously a concern for me if people cant access the site, as far as fixing it is concerned I am limited to just complaining about it for now.. Money has changed hands already, we will not be with this host this time next year though.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Jim on August 09, 2009
The problem is only with some routes - for instance my route to dbf doesn't contain seabone.net.  It may only be Va!n's ISP who peers with them, or their upstream.  It's impossible to tell who else is seeing these problems.

I had a similar problem with RCM a few weeks ago, I couldnt reach them at all, then all of a sudden it began working again, I don't post much there anyway but it was a bit fruistrating as I am supposedly re-writing their website for them (as soon as they have sound some gfx).

Hopefully the problems will go away for you soon too Va!n.

I had some problems tonight, site unreachable for about 10-15mins then it was back. Hope its nothing serious  :)
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?

Ive been having problems reaching the site on and off all day.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Jim on August 10, 2009
Me too.  Something broke at 7.30am EST (I think that's about 10.30pm GMT).  Not sure what.

yup. second that.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Clyde on August 10, 2009
Same again today too.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Jim on August 11, 2009
Yup, same this morning, hostpapa or their ISP this time.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?

:(

Okay, well it looks like I will have to move us. This is going to cost me a fair bit of cash but more worryingly a lot of stress so please bear with me for a few weeks while I choose a better host and plan our move.

I'll probably need to put DBF offline for a couple of days while I move us to a new site, I have to chop the database up and it's fucking huge.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: TinDragon on August 11, 2009
It's anoying that its having problems but it's one of those things that can happen, hopefully you can find a solution without losing to much to stress :)
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Shockwave on August 11, 2009
It was a nightmare last time I moved the  site tbh, and it's even more complicated this time, I was really hoping that it could be avoided, but the downtime is really pissing me off too so I have to do something.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: zawran on August 11, 2009
Personally I can live with a site not always being up. Its not like I don't have other things to fill my time. So to me its not been that big of a deal that the forum was unavailable for a few hours this one time.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Shockwave on August 11, 2009
Seems that they had power failures....

QuoteDear HostPapa Customer,

Please be advised that on August 9 and 10, 2009, one of HostPapa’s datacentres experienced intermittent outages to both its regular and backup power supplies. This was due to a local area power blackout as a result of extreme weather conditions.

As a result of this issue, some of our customers’ servers and the main HostPapa website experienced intermittent downtime. Our System Administrators and the power company local to our datacentre worked diligently during this period to resolve the situation and get all systems and customer servers back to full operational status as quickly as possible.

HostPapa apologizes to all affected customers for any inconvenience that this intermittent power outage may have caused. Should you have any comments or inquiries about outages experienced with your own website(s) during this period, please open a support ticket at http://hostpapasupport.com and we will respond promptly.

Thank you for choosing to do business with HostPapa.

Sincerely,
The HostPapa Support Team

Hmmmm.

Give it a second chance, and see if this happens again. Today has been ok my end.
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: benny! on August 11, 2009
Yeah, what Clyde says. I would give them a second chance, too!
Title: Re: Anyone else experiencing a very slow site tonight?
Post by: Way.net on August 12, 2009
Totally agree with what Clyde and Benny say Nick .:goodpost:

Save your cash,valuable time and whole lot of stress untill its absolutely nesscessary.

The world we live in now we all expect everything to happen immediately, so having to wait to log on sometimes makes it all the more worthwhile.You certainly aprreciate this place more when you reallise you can't access it.
Keep up the good work mate.

Ok then I'll let it ride for now.. If it goes bad again I'll reconsider it. Thanks.
