Hi,
I just got this eMail from my hoster:

Quote:

Today we have been experiencing VERY high server loads, all because of your
web site. As a result I have temporarily suspended the account until we can
find the issue and solve it.

When I recently tried to access your site, I got the main page in just over
20 seconds, and caused the server load to peak at >500, which is dog slow.

Looking at the server status and you can see that all the traffic is
directed to your page. When I suspend your site, the server load goes back
it its normal <1.

Did you recently update phpnuke, or is there perhaps a new exploit that your
site is being targeted for?

I am going to restore your account, but temporarily disable your home page
while we figure this out.

I don't know if it's an exploit, or a problem with a corrupted table, or
what, but lets see if we can figure this out and get you back in operation
soon.

I haven't updated since I went to the RavenNuke Distro about 6 months ago.....

Where do I start with this ?
Or has anybody any ideas ???

no....this is not in anyway related to the distro...
any chance you can tell more about your site?

What was it about?
What extra's did you had installed ?
Did members had special rights....like uploading something?
etc....
etc...

It's called "MAME ROM Links"

URL is [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

It had links to ROMs for the MAME emulator.

It gets about 1000-1500 unique hits per day, so it's active enough I suppose...

It was hacked about 6 months ago when I had regular PHPNuke installed and that's why I installed RavenNuke.

I have 2 other mods on the site, and I'm the only superuser.

The members couldn't upload any files.

Although, under the reviews section there were a crap load of comments that I hadn't cleared in a while. They were comments placed by bots - the usual crap about Viagra etc....

I'd say the DB tables just need to be cleared down from all the crap, but I can't get at phpMyAdmin as the hosting company have temporarily taken the site down.....
I do have FTP access, but there's only a basic "root" dir now, and my original root dir is called "root.old"

I could reinstall it I suppose and have a look there....

From the hosters email it seem that it's just slowing everything down. If the DB was very full and wasn't being maintained properly that would slow it down a lot.....

What do you reckon ?

Do you need any other info ?

well a lot of things are possible but if its no script that runs with your install then its not easy to slow a site down by just some links...
But we also dont know if your host is telling the truth either.

But a db of 50mb ?
What table is the largest one ?

I'm looking into it now - just putting phpMyAdmin back on.

How would I check for a script that runs with the site ? Do you mean something that is getting kicked off from index.php and running ?
(BTW, phpMyAdmin is still uploading - I've only FTP access, not SSH)

Actually the "nuke_stats_date" is pretty big - what's in that table ? Or more to the point, can I empty it ?
I've emptied the comments tables

I seriously doubt it is the database.

There are quite a number of robots attempting exploits on phpNuke and other PHP based systems. You may need access logs to determine where they are all coming from, but I suspect if you block libwww-perl user agent then you will see a decrease on the hits on your site.

How would I do this ? And would it have any negative effects on the site ?
