amavisd killed and php-cgi.

[Rashef]

Hi guys,

I've a ISP Config 3 installation with 2 servers without mirroring. I'm experiencing a problem with the main server... the symptom: none of the website hosted there can send mail through their web-form.

I noticed that the problem is easily solved starting amavisd: deepening in the problem I noticed that its process is continuously killed because the server is out of memory.

I already planned a maintenance to move a couple of website on the second server: using top I identified up to 6-7 instances of php-cgi (from a single client\website) holding more than 70% of the whole memory.

Apart from moving the website is there any way to avoid any website to use the minimal amount of memory to keep the main services running?

thanks

Hi Till, thanks for the answer... I assume there's no other way to solve the problem and keep the antispam feature... :-(

Thanks anyway!

The other option is to add more ram to your server / vps.

How much ram does the server has?
