keyhelp and php/apache directive

Hello team

Is there any php/apache directive that cut the apache response after a certain usage like maxconnection?
Asking because we have performed a load test on a RVS S14 and after 150 user no one was able to navigate the website even is the load on the server was more than normal between 24 and 25.

Any clue?

Hello,

check the Error Log of the Webserver /var/log/apache2/error.log if the server reaches MaxRequestWorkers limit

I think this load is pretty high.

Use this command on the shell:

Code: Select all

apache2ctl status
If you see a lot of RRRRRR..., the processes are probably stuck on read.

We had this problem due to massiv access from a bot via https://IP.of.the.server.
The solution was to block the bot on the firewall.
