XF 1.2 WARNING: [pool www] server reached pm.max_children setting (5), consider raising it

[Nentify]

Hey,

I'm getting the error below, and can't seem to fix it

[07-Feb-2014 16:30:36] WARNING: [pool www] server reached pm.max_children setting (5), consider raising it

This occurs when I use the rule:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^tekkify.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://forums.tekkify.com/$1 [R=301,L]

or something similar in my .htaccess on my old VPS site to redirect to my new site at forums.tekkify.com. However, when I add the re-direct and try to access the site, php5-fpm craps out and gives me the error above. I've tried increasing the pm.max_children value, but got a similar error with the first five getting:

[07-Feb-2014 19:02:40] WARNING: [pool www] seems busy (you may need to increase pm.start_servers, or pm.min/max_spare_servers), spawning 32 children, there are 0 idle, and 8 total children

If you need anymore information, let me know. Would really like to get this fixed.

To make it clear:

• The new site (forums.tekkify.com) works 100% fine without the apache redirect from the old site (tekkify.com)
• The new site stops working completely, doesn't even load 1 page when the redirect is active from the old site.
• The new site runs on nginx
• The old site runs on apache, if these two pieces of information have any impact. Didn't think they would though.

Whats your pm.max_requests set to?

Whats your pm.max_requests set to?

5, also tried 10, 15 and 50.

 

[Slavik]

Try setting it to 0

 

[Nentify]

Try setting it to 0

root@tekkify:/etc/nginx# service php5-fpm restart
* Restarting PHP5 FastCGI Process Manager php5-fpm [fail]

When set to 0.

Edit: Oh, sorry. Wrong value. My max_requests was unset (had ; before it).

 

[Slavik]

0 should be the default setting for that IIRC.

I would suggest you have some misconfiguration somewhere.

I was reading the wrong value, it was unset (; before it). I thought you said max_children.
