The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Ubuntu/Windows Apache - PHP/Python Sites won't load until 4th refresh, HTML works fine

Asked by erictrudeau in PHP Scripting Language, Python Scripting Language, Apache Web Server

Tags: ubuntu, php, apache

I have been having some issues with my new web server since I put it into the datacenter about two weeks ago.  I was originally using Windows Server 2003 Enterprise.  After trying way too much to solve this, I decided to load Ubuntu Server 7.04.  The server is hosted at NetRiver, a datacenter in Lynnwood (North Seattle).  

This has been pretty consistent, happening with both Windows & Ubuntu.  I have tried Apache 2.0 and 2.2.4 on Windows and Apache 2.2.3 on Ubuntu.  PHP 5.2.3 on Windows and 5.2.1 on Ubuntu.  When I was on Windows I couldn't track down what was actually happening but it was absolutely consistent. After 45 minutes of a site not being loaded, you would try to pull it up and it wouldn't load.  The same would happen if you tried to refresh the page two more times.  On the final [4th] request for the page, it would finally come up.  I noticed on Ubuntu last night what was happening.  When everything is working properly, 2-4 high ports will be opened, the page will load, and they will close out within 15-30 seconds.  When the page won't load, one high port is opened, the page doesn't load and it gets killed by the timeout in 5 minutes or so.  Here is the real fun part... static HTML sites always load fine. It is the scripted sites that don't.  Ohh and this happens whether the sites are fully PHP (CMS Made Simple 1.1.1) or fully Python (Django Dev) (Version 2.5.1).  I am noticing now that sometimes the Python sites will load and the PHP won't.

Static HTML Sites: intivex.com and intivex.net
Python Sites: silverdalebaptist.net, sbcex.com and theelijahprojectonline.com
PHP Sites: silverdalebaptist.com (.org & .info are from the same vhost)

** Server Specs ********************************
HP Proliant DL380 G3
Dual Intel Xeon 2.8 GHZ
2GB ECC Registered PC2100 (4x512 MB)
2x 18GB 15k Scsi Drives in a mirror
4x 73GB 10k Ultra3 RAID5 (unactive at the moment)

** Software Specs - Windows (Not Installed Anymore) **************
Windows Server 2003 Enterprise fully updated
Apache 2.0.54 & Apache 2.2.4 (Same response with both)
PHP 5.2.3
Python 2.5.1
Mod Python v????

** Software Specs - Linux (Currently Installed) *****************
Ubuntu Server 7.04
Apache 2.2.3
PHP 5.2.1
Python 2.5.1
Mod Python 3.2.10

Also, PHP sites use MySQL 5.0.38 and Python sites use Postgres 8.2. (On Windows it was the latest verson... Ubuntu is a little out of date and I don't know how to compile the new versions properly).

Any help would be appreciated.  I have no idea what is going on... so frustrating!  Config files to follow...

Thanks!
Eric Trudeau
