Hi, I’m not sure what this could be, and I think running Discourse on 1GB of memory plus 1GB of swap is probably below minimum spec at this point so I’d understand if this is outright unsupported, but I’m having a weird issue where my site goes down at exactly the same time every day (at around 2:4…

I’m on a server with 2 GB of ram and I’m seeing the same behavior as of a few days ago. Seems to happen around backup time.

[image] axfelix: I don’t think the nginx inside the container has diverged from stock at all, I use the provided launcher script for all the docker stuff. Well you would be using this: templates/web.ratelimited.template.yml master params: reqs_per_second: 12 burst_pe…

Ah, OK, good to know. So I should add that to the host nginx or the container nginx (which is to say, that to: block in the app.yml?)

You need to run a replace command in the internal NGINX. After making the changes, look at the actual file on disk to confirm that you got what you wanted. A trick I use is: ./launcher enter app cd /etc/nginx/conf.d/ edit the discourse.conf file sv restart nginx see that my desired effect was ac…

OK, will test if it goes down again tomorrow despite increasing swap. Any other ideas if this turns out not to be it? The timeliness still makes me quite skeptical.

Yeah, the strict periodicity (in the absence of scheduled backups) is a very confusing aspect to this. Seems like a heck of a big clue, if you can figure out what’s running at that exact time, I think you’ll be 90% done.

Same problem for me :frowning: I’m tired of rebuild after every crash.

Check your /sidekiq and see if anything is running at that time. What also might help is to start psql to take a look at what is going on in your database at that time. SELECT pid, age(query_start, clock_timestamp()), usename, query FROM pg_stat_activity;

[image] RGJ: Check your /sidekiq and see if anything is running at that time. Sidekiq is idle :thinking:

And of course it seems not to have happened today after occurring several days in a row at this exact time. Huh. swap usage hasn’t ticked over 900M either. Oh well! Stay tuned I guess.
