Website Stability

Hi all

I've noticed recently that the IFAS website is extremely unstable, a lot of the time I get "Bad Gateway" messages, then a few minutes later the site works again, I get this in work (through US proxy and not through US Proxy), at home and on my mobile so it's not provider specific.

Is there a known issue?

Simon

Same issues here on similar platforms.

Hi,

I have moved the site to a new setup this morning to bring more stability.
If you are still seeing issues, please tell me but I think the instability issues should be gone

Thanks

Load averages used to be 26-30 using Apache
now around 0.5 - 0.8 using Nginx and php-fpm

Will keep an eye out Darragh

Coincidentally one of the messages I got earlier was a message from "Nginx" saying bad gateway

seems much better this evening. no issues so far

Simon,

I used to have nginx reverse proxying to a backend apache instance.
Now the frontend nginx handles all the requests and uses php-fpm for all the php stuff
