Nice post, will definitely help other people too 😄
Why do I need to restart my NodeBB every couple of hours ?
-
I am hosted on AWS EC2 with MongoDB (DB is also hosted on the same AWS EC2) ...3 categories, 1000 topics and total 1500 posts. The NodeBB becomes unresponsive after an hou or so and I am forced to restart. Nothing in the logs !
Running NodeBB v1.0.0.
Any ideas ? -
I'll give you a cross-reference to a similar issue: https://community.nodebb.org/topic/8875/frontend-freeze-on-version-later-than-v1-0-2/28
We still don't know what causes this thought.
-
Quite odd... when NodeBB freezes, do you see CPU usage stuck at 100%?
-
@assamese Have you by chance also checked the mongodb logs?

@Bri My MongoDB log is clean since it was restarted 2 weeks ago -

@julian Not sure if the CPU usage spikes to 100%. I will keep an eye when it freezes the next time. Thanks

I somehow feel (Not sure !) my situation is related to the nodebb-plugin-custom-pages

I collected this data when my NodeBB became unresponsive (ie. could not access forum from my browser)
