I found recently that a slow unstable internet connection would lead to frequent drop-outs in the client, however, this is to be expected in that scenario.

A quick look at your owncloud log and a quick search of the trim fault indicates that you may have app compatibility issues. Look to disable or update your apps to resolve that error and see how you go on the issue at hand.

Also if you are seeing a lot of those segmentation faults in the web sever, it could be worth looking into resolving that. If your webserver is restarting, then it’s an issue outside of owncloud’s control.

Hey,

@aclemence

Also if you are seeing a lot of those segmentation faults in the web sever, it could be worth looking into resolving that. If your webserver is restarting, then it’s an issue outside of owncloud’s control.

i think as well that the segmentation faults are the root cause of both issues. If the web server is crashing and getting restarted both the “page reloading” and “Connection timed out” are probably impacts of the segmentation faults.

segmentation faults

how to fix these segmentation faults? Any suggestion …

Thanks in advance

[tom42]

Hey,

i think a segmentation fault can have many reasons like a bug in Apache, a bug in a library used by Apache, a bug in the PHP packages used or similar so i think it is not possible go give specific hints how to fix these segmentation faults.

As Ubuntu 16.04 is already quite aged maybe you could upgrade to a more recent Ubuntu version (18.04 or 20.04 for example) and hope that this is already fixing this segmentation faults?

Thanks for the suggestion,

Actally i was planning to separate webserver & db server for two different servers. Can you please share me the documentation (manual ), how to do configuration??

And where should be the data directory need to be kept whether in webserver or db server?? Please suggest…

[eneubauer]

I would strongly recommend you try setting up your servers using the owncloud ansible roles:

ownCloud & Ansible: Introduction and How To

First, I would like to announce the ownCloud Ansible GitHub organisation: A huge thank you goes out to Robert who developed all roles and custom modules to make this work. There you can find Ansible roles to set up ownCloud on CentOS 7 and Ubuntu 18.04. CentOS 8 still need some adjustments to the package installation in the playbooks in order to work. The roles are being automatically tested, however if you find errors please report them in the respective issue trackers. There is some d…

This will seperate out the data directory by default, if you point the mariadb against a separate server, it will set it up with the right parameters. All you’d have to do is adjust the mysql user to allow access from a different host.

Additionally all configuration will be set to ownCloud best practices by default. However I do understand that using ansible is not the easiest for Linux beginners. Perhaps try it out on a VM first, …

Hi eneubauer,

hope you are doing good…

i was planning to separate APP & DB to two different servers, apart from the ansible , is there any best way to point the mysql DB against a separate server???

i was planning to use web & app in a server and DB, radis & storage in a separate server … is this possible?
Please suggest me a best possible solution…

thanks in advance…
