Joomla website is becoming too slow

Post by kulot » Sat Sep 13, 2014 5:22 am

Hi,

I have a Joomla 2.5 running on iis8 with fastcgi, I noticed lately that when the visitor reaches to 300-400 simultaneously the website becomes to slow, even the point that it will return a 500 Service Unavailable.

Restarting the IIS will then solve the issue.

Can someone help me sort this thing, is there any settings that I missed like setting in the php.ini or in the fastcgi


And additional info about my problem, when the website encounter error 500, only the php application is not running static html can be opened let say mywebsite.com/app.php is not opening but mywebsite.com/app.html is opening

That might be a limitation on your server. This is a sign that you hit the maximum number of Apache clients (since I think the default maximum of concurrent clients is around 300-400). See: http://www.itoctopus.com/your-joomla-we ... he-clients

It would be a good idea to bring this issue to your host.

We are running our own server which is Windows Server 2012, IIS8, where I can find those settings

Just today we experienced the same issue with our website, saw that there are 32 instances of CGI/ FastCGI in the task manager that are running, by end tasking them all solve the issue.

Also when I restart the W3SVC this will resolve the issue...

Am I missing some configuration in my PHP ?
