My uptime is something like 87% since I have a very large server and every time someone makes a change it restarts apache.

Any way around this???
 
It is normal to restart Apache, if it didn't restart, any new accounts you add (i.e domains), or sub-domains they add, wouldn't be active......

It also restarts every 24hrs too for the tally statistics.
 
Couldn't I make it do the reload? It takes quite a while to restart since I have so many accounts.

What is "quite a while" and how many is "so many accounts"?

I have a server with over 3800 domains and it takes apache 15 seconds to restart.
 
I hardly belive you are running 3800 domains under Apache :) Well it's possible if the domains are not so active and still you need a powerfull server for this. :)

I have a customer with 1528 users and 5791 domains :) Well Apache can't do anything, just loading all CPU and eating all RAM :)

I don't care if you believe me or not. It just shows you have no idea what size my business is.

I am still waiting for an answer from samb0057 if samb0057 still wants help.

Don't fool arround. What kind of business cant be at 3800 under Apache ? LOL, you are funny. And also you are a really coold guy.
 
Just curious can you post a
Code: 
cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep model
and
Code: 
cat /proc/meminfo | head -n5

Thanks.
 
I have one DA server loading 3836 domains, another loading 2753, and another loading 3185 not to mention a leased out VPS that is running DA and apache loading 8131 domains all of take take apache about 10 - 15 seconds to do a full restart. I could go on and on.

You cannot find an Apache hard limit that keeps me from doing this because it does not exist.

All of these can restart in a few seconds. My point being that if it takes a lot of time to restart apache then either something is configured wrong or the server is not powerful enough.

I think I am done here unless someone other than localhost responds. I am not going to be drawn into a pointless argument.
 
There's probably a hard limit somewhere, based on how apache stores numbers.

but unless it was a short integer, it would be over 4096. The next limit is over 15,000.

I believe there is a hard limit at some point, but I have a server with 3274 domains and it only takes apache around 30 seconds or so to restart, so OP, how long is a "long time"?
