Wordpress on Vultr 768

@thwr said in Wordpress on Vultr 768:
Most Wordpress sites only have like 128 MB, maybe 256 MB.
I doubt that most do, as it's effectively impossible for many years to even get VPS that small. Rackspace minimum is 512MB and DO/Vultr is like 768MB.

@scottalanmiller said in Wordpress on Vultr 768:
So a few things to get started:
- You need to configure your swap space, Vultr does not do this for you. So you are swapless and running with much less memory than you should be in that regard.
- 768MB is not very good for web serving. It can work, but you need to tune things, Apache especially as it will sprawl instantly.
- You need to look in the logs and see why the services said that they stopped.
- You need to look at the SAR reports to see what memory is doing. Move SAR up to every minute instead of every ten minutes for better info.
- I setup swap previously.
free -m total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 740 255 247 1 237 369 Swap: 1023 195 828

I figured this was too low, but thought it might be manageable, especially just for testing and/or low usage.

This might be a silly question but just to be 100% sure.... what is the disk space usage?
df -h

Doesn't look like memory is the problem. You don't have a lot, but it's not being used.

This is the bit that matters. InnoDB is freaking out.

And it is not memory that it is complaining about.

@fuznutz04 Okay, so plenty of disk space.

Which OS is this? What is the source of MariaDB?

@scottalanmiller said in Wordpress on Vultr 768:

This is CentOS7. I set this server up a few months ago following this guide: https://jaredbusch.com/2014/08/11/how-to-install-wordpress-on-centos-7-minimal/
As far as I remember, I don't remember deviating from it.
-
I see, so this has been running for a while and only recently started having the problem? It seems like InnoDB is having an issue registering as an engine.

I need to update that guide a bit one of these days.

Yes, it was runnning fine for at least a week, then I abandoned it for a few months, and recently revisited and started having these issues.

Oh, you hurt it's feelings. That's a standard problem. Talk nice to it for a while.

Could be. It's not a HUGE deal, as I can just blow it away and start over, but it would be nice to find out what's going on for if/when it happens again

Agreed. Since it is not mission critical, start with updates if those have not been run. 99% sure that that will not do anything, but you know, worth the test.
-
@scottalanmiller Yeah, that didn't fix it. I'll just start over. I recall discussion on here previously that the "one click" installs of Wordpress on Vultr are not recommended. I couldn't remember (or find the discussion) why this was the opinion...
-
Have you checked to see if these files exist and are correct size? Have you checked the .cnf file
InnoDB: Error: log file ./ib_logfile0 is of different size 0 5242880 bytes
InnoDB: than specified in the .cnf file 0 8388608 bytes!
Check your cnf file to see that it is correct. Rename/move ib_logfile0, ib_logfile1 (they'll get recreated when the service starts again)

I renamed and started the service again, and the files were re-created. The site is online for a few seconds then crashes again. I'm not seeing any configuration file other than /etc/my.cnf, and the file only has a few lines of code in it.
[mysqld] datadir=/var/lib/mysql socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock # Disabling symbolic-links is recommended to prevent assorted security risks symbolic-links=0 # Settings user and group are ignored when systemd is used. # If you need to run mysqld under a different user or group, # customize your systemd unit file for mariadb according to the # instructions in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Systemd [mysqld_safe] log-error=/var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log pid-file=/var/run/mariadb/mariadb.pid # # include all files from the config directory # !includedir /etc/my.cnf.d
The files in /etc/my.cnf.d have almost nothing in them as well.

That's correct, those are never recommended. Use the OS, not a third party system.

@fuznutz04
I think there should be a bit more lines in that file.
What size files are the recreated innodb files?
What is the contents of /var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log
