[apocan]

I want to know how many users can visit the site at the same time? normally there seems to be nothing with my site after we upgraded it to 3.51 but when much users viisit the server load again rises :( exactly 50 or 100 at a time.

isnt it possible? or how will be the vivvo v4 for server loading? will it be as in 3.5 or better. please help me. solve this problem or find me a hosting company that vivvo can work really better. no loads... :(

[apocan]

please.. I really need help :(

4.0 is highly optimized version, and with caching enabled it can hold pretty much... Accurate numbers are out of my hands at the moment, and I really don't like free styling with numbers ;)

we are waiting for 4.0 but what will we do for the 3.51 ? I m in a very bad situation just now? it locks rhe server again and again

[apocan]

now I m going to change my host. any suggestion for this. and I have a question. Does it work on windows server? if it works will be an advantage? any suggestions?

Are those 'real people' or search engine spiders? I had a MAJOR problem with Yahoo Spiders on my vbulletin board (a lot of people did, actually.) Most people had to add code to limit the number of spiders that could crawl their domain at any time. It was not unusual for me to have 300-400 yahoo spiders on my site, and it was causing MAJOR server issues.

I really like Liquid Web.

But do check your logs to see if the problems are being caused by real people or spiders.

real people. my site is about Formula 1 and there are certain times that site is very popular and is visited very much. These times are racing days. For example after the race lots of people visit site and at that time the server load increases suddenly. This weekend was a racing weekend and that happened every day. server had to reset mysql :(

my hosting providers said me many times the server is showing errors with my database. no one had a problem but I had. The problem began after I had more than 1500 articles.

*sorry for bad language

My site is quite popular, too, however, the number of spiders in addition to the number of real people is what was causing the problems. My server can easily handle all of the people, but the additional 300 spiders were a problem.

But if you're sure all of the concurrent sessions are actually people, the next step might be to ask your host to optimize your server.

In addition to blocking Yahoo spiders, my host did some optimizations that have helped a lot. At any given hour of the day, I have 300 concurrent sessions on one of my vBulletins, and now the server doesn't break a sweat. (that vb is on the same server as my vivvo installation...no problems, but a lot of that is because my host is very patient with making things 'the best' on the server.)

Lastly, if you're on a shared server, you might also want to consider moving to a VPS. I had to move my vbulletin, once I started getting around 50 concurrent sessions...

we tried (or he said he tried) everythnig that he could have done and at last we broke up our working relation :) now I m searching for another fun :) I dont knopw what to do but some people say VPS could be ideal for me as you said. I dont know much about VPS. can anyone handle it easily?

What errors?

[apocan]

my server sent me a pic and showed it. he said yellow databases have an error and these databases are mine :) I dont understand much but you can look at it.
