Yet another Nginx story

Last night one of my friend gtalk me and complaining about his vps is slow and lagging. Further checking the process is highly spike where load average: 173.68, 165.51, 146.09 which is abnormal.

I'm thinking the MySQL is consuming all the resources and when I try to restart the process it's come to timeout. No chance at all.. I tried to stop httpd, also timeout and kill come to my hand :)

kill -9 [processid]

After restart httpd, the load is still high around 4 to 6. I plan to replace Apache with latest Nginx and using php-cgi for communicate with PHP. Surprisingly after I start Nginx the process come to 0.35 not even close to 1..

And that how Nginx act as a hero..

Since PHP require php-mysql extension to connect to MySQL server but php-mysql is only work with mysql-server from the Repos (Redhat/Centos). 1) Remove default mysql-server/php-mysql 2) Install MySQL Enterprise 3) Dependencies conflict occur + headache + install php-mysql shell> yum install php-mysql Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security Setting up Install Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package php-mysql.x86_64 0:5.1.6-27.el5 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: libmysqlclient.so.15(libmysqlclient_15)(64bit) for package: php-mysql --> Processing Dependency: libmysqlclient.so.15()(64bit) for package: php-mysql --> Running transaction check ---> Package mysql.x86_64 0:5.0.77-4.el5_4.2 set to be updated --> Process...
