10.4 web server painfully slow

We upgraded from Server 10.3 to 10.4.11 (Apache/1.3.33 (Darwin) PHP/4.4.7).
We have a couple of wikis installed (DokuWiki running on PHP, file based - no backend).
While 10.3 did a nice job serving them, 10.4 is painfully slow. What used to load in a few seconds now can take anywhere from 30 - 60 seconds to load.
There appear to be now error.log or access.log entries indicating anythings wrong.
Any idea what I can do to get the speed back?
Thanks...martin

Is serving of static pages slow as well? It looks like DNS issue, mainly if you use users authentication, There is an excellent tool to check apache serving speed named 'ab'
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/programs/ab.html
Don't use it from the same machine to get accurate results.

  • Slow Web Server

    Hello, I have a G4 with Mac OS X Server 10.3.9 And I just set up the Web Server today and I loaded Mambo as my main page. THe problem I am having is horable load times. For some reason it takes a long time for the page to load I am unsure y. Here are my DSL speed information
    dslreports.com speed test result on 2006-06-05 20:12:31 EST:
    1626 / 668
    Your download speed : 1626 kbps or 203.3 KB/sec.
    That is 45.4% worse than an average user on verizon.net
    Your upload speed : 668 kbps or 83.5 KB/sec.
    That is 10.2% worse than an average user on verizon.net
    My sire URL is phyburn.gotdns.org
    Thanks for your time

    Ironically, turn OFF the Performance Cache (Server Admin -> (server) -> Web ->Sites -> Settings -> Options)
    If you hit your page you'll find that a number of the embedded items (images, .css, etc.) are trying to load from http://phyburn.gotdns.org:10680/
    This often happens especially when using redirects within your web site. Turning off the performance cache overcomes this problem - and the boost offered by the performance cache usually isn't sufficient to leave it on.
    If you haven't setup port forwarding to forward port 10680 to your server then that content isn't going to load and the browser will sit and spin its wheels until the connection times out.

  • Painfully slow access to admin console (how can I fix it?)

    Hi,
    I'm using using Sun Java System Web Server Version 7.0U4 B12/02/2008 02:17 running on CentOS (Redhat EL) release 4.4.
    The problem is that using the Admin Console (on port 8989) is painfully slow. It takes minutes for each page to load, but they do usually load.
    Any ideas on how to fix that?
    There are some other things going on that might be related and helpful to know:
    I get certificate errors when I access the Admin Console (e..g, IE complains about a mismatched address). I've tried following the directions to install the certificate in IE7 and FF3, but neither has stopped bothering me about the certificate error.
    I have the server behind a firewall which allows all outgoing traffic and select incoming ports to the server. The firewall also maps a public IP address to the server's local IP address (e..g, 10.10.10.8).
    If I access the Admin Console locally via the LAN address (https://10.10.10.8:8989) it is no longer slow, but I get booted back to the login screen very frequently (e.g, every minute or two of casual browsing through the console), and I still get the certificate error
    We haven't given the server a name, but access it by IP address, and the virtual server configuration in the Admin Console is name "localhost.localdomain"
    Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! I've tried searching for solutions several times, but haven't succeeded.
    Thanks,
    Tim

    Thanks for the thoughts

    sounds more like some network issues. are you running your browser on your centos 4.4 as well ? also, did you try to connect using your IP - some thing like https://<ip>:8989 ?
    No, we're not running the browser on centos 4.4. We're runing browsers on laptops, connecting both offsite via public IP address and in the office via both the public IP address and the LAN ip address.
    Yes, we're using the ip address as you demonstrated. This machine does not have a domain name attached, so we only connect via ip addresses (mapped public or LAN)

I've tried following the directions to install the certificate in IE7 and FF3, but neither has stopped bothering me about the certificate error.it is not a certificate error. web server 7 admin server uses a self signed certificate . this is necessary step. however, IE reports a warning when it sees a self signed certificate. it wants you to know that it does not understand who sent this certificate. you need to create an exception - saying that you know what you are doing then there won't be any certificate error ..Okay, I'll look for how to do that, but so far I've only found instructions for how to install the certificate in the browsers, and unfortunately, that hasn't made a difference.

    sounds like some network misconfiguration - outside the scope of this forum.I cannot rule that out, but other servers/websites seem to work fine with this same setup. Although, only this server is using https

    if you want to increase this time out, you could do so by manually editing <install-root>/lib/webapps/admingui/WEB-INF/web.xml and change the value for session-timeout to say 600 (for 10 minutes).. . pl . note that this is not a supported way and you could potentially leave others to use your session if you are careless. but, if you know what you are doing .Thanks I did that. It surprises me that the default timeout appears to be 1 minute.

  • Sun Java Web Server 6.1SP4 deadlock, stops responding

    Hi, i have a java web app on a Java Web SErver 6.1SP4 and when there are a lot of users the web server hangs, it stops responing. After a while (from 2 to 15 minutes) it start responding again. This serves neither dinamic nor static content. CPU usage is 100%. Just stoping and restarting the web server instance it works properly (even with the same or greater number of clients).
    Reading many posts some one wrote to use pstack to see whats happening. I did it, but i can't interpret results (i think there is a deadlock but don't know if thats true and how to resolve it).
    Any hint will be appreciated

    hi
    sorry for the delayed response.
    well, the problem that you are trying to run into is very common when your server is getting good amount of load and uses large amount of servlet/jsp web applications running.
    here is a url that you might find it a useful read
    http://java.sun.com/docs/hotspot/gc1.4.2/index.html#4.%20Types%20of%20Collectors|outline
    if you do not want to take this trouble reading this document and want a quick solution, you do can do couple of things:
    - first understand how to size the heap
    http://java.sun.com/docs/hotspot/gc1.4.2/index.html#3.%20Sizing%20the%20Generations|outline
    - understand that the system is paused because jvm is busy doing garbage collection before allowing the web server to continue.
    - this can be avoided by properly tuning the jvm to how you think the server should behave. unfortunately, there is no miracle one one line to fix this issue
    - by careful and decent analysis of your system, you can tune your jvm properly that it can scale very well without any glitches.
    though, you will need to take the pain to learn the garbage collection acronyms and see what's best suited for you.
    - first, you want to know what is happening inside the jvm before you proceed to optimize . you can do this by adding this option
    -verbose:gc -XX:+PrintGCDetails
    How to add this option in the server.xml , is by doing something like
    start admin server -> manager your server -> click Java tab
    -> click on JVM Option in the left side
    -> Add this JVM option -verbose:gc -XX:+PrintGCDetails
    -> restart the server
    -> note, you do NOT want to leave the above option in the production environment as this will tremendously slow your application and this is meant to be only for development purposes.
    - if your server is a multi processor server (has more than 1 CPU) and you want less pause time, you can typically try adding this jvm option to your server and restarting it.
    -XX:+UseParNewGC -XX:+CMSParallelRemarkEnabled
    here are few other short cut , jvm options that you also try in your devleopment environment before going to production.
    Server application(Like Web Server 6.1) running alone on a large multi-processor server with 4gb of physical memory.
    #java -server -XX:+AggressiveHeap
    Two applications running on a large multi-processor server with 4gb of physical memory. Each java application instance is allocated a part of total system memory by an explicit specification of the maximum and minimum heap sizes.
    #java -server -XX:+AggressiveHeap -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m
    (again, do your research before you use this option in the production environment)

  • Wi-fi painfully slow on macbook pro in OSX 10.8.2

    I have a Mac Book pro and over the last two days my internet has turned painfully slow on wifi - i havent loaded any new programmes and Speedtest shows no problems, still 37mbps on fiber broadband, my iPhone and PC are fine on the same wireless connection and Ethernet is perfect!!
    I have tried resetting Safari and Firefox in preferences, clearing history and cookies, resetting DHCP, even using the setting 8.8.8.8. DNS server, and changing wireless channels, resetting the router, as well as running MacScan. I see people talking about turning off IPv6 but im on OS X 10.8.2 and off is not an option I have Automatic, manual and Link-manual only, i have tried all these to no joy still web pages just take ages to load :-( Any ideas?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Good Spec Mac Mini got painfully slow

    Hi All
    Following reading posts on this forum, I have upgraded my 2011 Mac Mini from 4gb to 8gb Memory, but it is still painfully slow, with the spinning beach ball always in play.
    I now have a Core i7, 2.7ghz Mac Mini, with 8GB DDR3 memory, 500 mb disc (with 300gb free), running OSX 10.9.1.  I run Microsoft office and Iphoto and thats pretty much it, but even using Iphoto can take seconds for ecah photo to move, and typing emails often means waiting for the text to catch up with my typing.
    In my frustration I copied everything off, re formatted the hard disc, and re installed everything, but its still the same speed.  The Activity monitor shows very little CPU activity, although the memory shows as 7.87GB used out of 8GB, not sure if that is normal.
    Any ideas would be really welcome, as its getting very frustrating to use, when I first purchased the MAC mini it was blindingly fast on everything.
    Thanks
    Martyn

    If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. This procedure is a diagnostic  test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything suggested in this comment. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed, as well as some other aspects of the configuration that may be related to the problem.
    Don’t be alarmed by the seeming complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out. Here's a brief summary: In each of two steps, you copy a line of text from this web page into a window in another application. You wait about a minute. Then you paste some other text, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is copy; paste; paste again. That's all there is to it. Details follow.
    You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken while booted in “normal” mode. If the system is now running in safe mode and is bootable in normal mode, reboot as usual. If it only boots in safe mode, use that.
    Below are instructions to enter UNIX shell commands. They do nothing but produce human-readable output. However, you need to think carefully before running any program at the behest of a stranger on a public message board. If you question the safety of the procedure suggested here — which you should — search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them.
    The commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it.
    If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. Step 1 should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    The command may take up to a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. Wait for the line "Step 1 done" to appear below what you entered. The output of the command will beautomatically copied to the Clipboard. All you have to do is paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-Vagain. Please don't copy anything from the Terminal window. No typing is involved in this step.
    Step 2 
    Remember that you must be logged in as an administrator for this step. Do as in Step 1 with this line:
    PR () { [[ "$o" ]] && o=$(sed 's/^/   /' <<< "$o") && printf '\n%s:\n\n%s\n' "$1" "$o"; }; { o=$(sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix\.cron)|org\.(amav|apac|calendarse|cups|dove|isc|ntp|post[fg]|x)/{print $3}'); PR "Loaded extrinsic daemons"; o=$(sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook); PR "Login hook"; o=$(sudo crontab -l | grep [^[:blank:]]); PR "Root cron tasks"; o=$(syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|pagin|timed? ?o' | tail -n25 | awk '/:/{$4=""; print}'); PR "Log check"; } 2>&- | pbcopy; echo $'\nStep 2 done'
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    You can then quit Terminal. Please note:
    ☞ Steps 1 and 2 are all copy-and-paste — type only your login password when prompted.
    ☞ When you type your password, you won't see what you're typing.
    ☞ If you don’t have a password, set one before taking Step 2. If that’s not possible, skip the step.
    ☞ Step 2 might not produce any output, in which case the Clipboard will be empty. Step 1 will always produce something.
    ☞ The commands don't change anything, and merely running them will do neither good nor harm.
    ☞ Remember to post the output of both steps (unless you had to skip Step 2.) It's already in the Clipboard after you complete each step. You don't have to copy it. Just paste into a reply    
    ☞ If any personal information, such as your name or email address, appears in the output of either command, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    ☞ Don't post what you see in the Terminal window. The output is copied automatically to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Don't paste the output of Step 1 into the Terminal window. Paste it into a reply.

  • Mid 2011 Macbook Air Painfully slow.

    Mid 2011 Macbook Air Painfully slow.
    Hey everyone.  I am writing about my 13 inch Mid 2011 Macbook Air. 
    Recently it has been extremely slow and on occasion has not started up.
    I have reset the PRAM and SMC already, yet it is still very slow.  I have a couple theories about what might have caused it, are they plausible?
    Theory 1:  It’s a software problem. I tried to upgrade to 10.8.2 but halfway through the upgrade the computer restarted and somehow I was still on 10.8.1.  For fear of a big issue happening I didn’t try to upgrade again. Perhaps it is a flaw in Apple’s software update? 
    The important thing to note about this update is that I tried to install 10.8.2 around a month or two weeks BEFORE I started having problems.  So if these issues were due to 10.8.2’s failed update then it certainly was a delayed reaction. 
    I would of course like to update to 10.8.2 BUT as my computer is acting EXTREMELY slow and having trouble turning on occasionally I am worried the software update will completely brick the machine.  Is that possible?  Should I actually finish through with the software update?
    Theory 2:  It was an electricity problem. 
    The computer died when I was sitting at a café plugged into their wall sockets.  A few days later when I came back to the same spot with my old macbook which is now being used in lieu of the Air it suddenly turned black for a little while. Sensing it might be an electricity surge or something with their system I unplugged the cable.  I am not sure if that was paranoia though. 
    Can an electricity surge or a bad outlet fry a computer?  Can it fry the ram so the computer is extremely slow? Does that theory hold any water? 
    Thanks for your help diagnosing this problem.
    All the best. 

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Copy or drag — do not type — the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' 
    Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.) You can omit the final line ending in “$”. 
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}' 
    This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}' 
    Step 4
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null  
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null 
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • My MacBook Pro is running painfully slow all of a sudden. I am trying to clean up my iPhoto library and it's all of a sudden running really slow. I've uninstalled and disabled as many unnecessary apps as possible as far as I can tell.

    Here is the etrecheck info. Please advise... thank you!
    Problem description:
    iPhoto is running painfully slow. My library is on an external hard drive. It was runing just fine yesterday. i disabled Dropbox and a few other applications, to no avail.
    EtreCheck version: 2.1.5 (108)

    Wow, that's a lot of data for you to sift through, but I suppose you know what you are looking to find. I bet you earned every one of those points. Thanks, Linc. All the folks in the world waiting for me to share their photos with them thank you as well : )  Cathleen

  • Need Help to Prevent DDOS at application layer to protect Web server ?

    Please guide the solutions for DDOS attack. I am facing this attack and after some investigation I  found some details what is up against me
    Here are some details of the attack which is most similar in my situation.
    In considering the ramifications of a slow denial of service attack  against particular services, rather than flooding networks, a concept  emerged that would allow a single machine to take down another machine's  web server with minimal bandwidth and side effects on unrelated  services and ports.  The ideal situation for many denial of service  attacks is where all other services remain intact but the webserver  itself is completely inaccessible.  Slowloris was born from this  concept, and is therefore relatively very stealthy compared to most  flooding tools.
    Slowloris holds connections open by sending partial HTTP requests.   It continues to send subsequent headers at regular intervals to keep the  sockets from closing.  In this way webservers can be quickly tied up.   In particular, servers that have threading will tend to be vulnerable,  by virtue of the fact that they attempt to limit the amount of threading  they'll allow.  Slowloris must wait for all the sockets to become  available before it's successful at consuming them, so if it's a high  traffic website, it may take a while for the site to free up it's  sockets.  So while you may be unable to see the website from your  vantage point, others may still be able to see it until all sockets are  freed by them and consumed by Slowloris.  This is because other users of  the system must finish their requests before the sockets become  available for Slowloris to consume.  If others re-initiate their  connections in that brief time-period they'll still be able to see the  site.  So it's a bit of a race condition, but one that Slowloris will  eventually always win - and sooner than later.
    Slowloris also has a few stealth features built into it.  Firstly, it  can be changed to send different host headers, if your target is a  virtual host and logs are stored seperately per virtual host.  But most  importantly, while the attack is underway, the log file won't be written  until the request is completed.  So you can keep a server down for  minutes at a time without a single log file entry showing up to warn  someone who might watching in that instant.  Of course once your attack  stops or once the session gets shut down there will be several hundred  400 errors in the web server logs.  That's unavoidable as Slowloris sits  today, although it may be possible to turn them into 200 OK messages  instead by completing a valid request, but Slowloris doesn't yet do  that.
    Please suggest any solutions with product that can help to prevent this problem with some guidance of the feature of that product to specifically prevent this type of attack. I already a many cisco devices like ASA, IPS, Cisco guard etc. just need some guidance
    An early response requested and it will be highly appreciated.

    Hello Haseen
    Any tool will have some sort of trend/chracterstic that can be used to filter or throttle it out. Take skype for an example; even with all its complexity vendors managed to find days to detect it on the network and take corrective actions. However its always a catch-up game, developers continually work to make their applications or protocols more stealthy and the vendors have to keep up with this challenge.
    So you would need to understand this trend/chracterstic of the attack, and then filter out using an access control mechanism, IMHO the most appropriate would be a web application firewall (WAF), Cisco used to have one but I think it is EOS soon:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps9586/index.html
    F5 Networks have their ASM module:
    http://www.f5.com/products/big-ip/application-security-manager.html
    Other vendors also have some good tools.
    Please rate if you find the applications helpful.

  • Painfully slow wireless connection with Time Capsule

    I have recently bought and changed over my home wireless to a Time Capsule 2TB, which I wanted for both the backup and the ease in home networking. I have set up the wireless network and since day one it has been painfully slow! I have created two wireless networks, one for 2.4GHz and the other for 5GHz. I have been reading all over the web and boards but to no avail.  Any suggestions? I am about to give up on the time capsule completely! I couldn't even download my podcast tonight.
    Help!

    Firstly plug in directly by ethernet to be sure there isn't a network issue on wan side.
    Are you testing on multiple computers .. Mac and/or PC?? Which ones. and what network cards are being used?
    Try and remove anything that uses G wireless and throw away any B wireless. It will not work together with N even if it is an option.
    Turn off the guest network if you have it on.
    Have you used a wireless analyser like kismac or inssider for pc? Find the free channels and set the wireless to that. Use no security at first to test.. briefly.. and then select wpa2 personal. Is there any difference?
    Do you have another wireless router running?? Were you using a different wireless router for comparison?

  • SCVMM 2012 R2 VM on SMB 3.0 file share cloning is not offloaded and painfully slow

    I setup a test environment, it appears the SCVMM always use BITS to clone VM that was painfully slow
    SCVMM1: SCVMM 2012 R2 with the latest windows update
    VHOST1 and VHOST2: Hyper-V Host. Windows Server 2012 R2 with the latest update
    SERVER1: Windows File server, with Windows Server 2012 R2 with the latest update. The storage is a single 512GB SSD.
    All VMs are located at a file share on SERVER1, the share is managed by SCVMM1 also.
    All computers have plenty of RAM (8G+) and modern processor. The individual I/O benchmark on SERVER1 is typical SSD speed.  Each VHOST has dedicated NIC for VM use. Each
    server has two gigabit NICs on same switch for data.
    The step to reproduce:
    1. Create a Windows 7 x86 VM on VHOST1 and install OS on it.  The VM is placed on the SERVER1 file share.  It runs well. no problem, VM performance is good.
    2. In SCVMM console, right clicks the VM and select "Create Clone", the deployment target is on the same SMB share as the source VM.  
    Actual:  It appears SCVMM clone the VM files with BITS, it is painfully slow. All data travel through network. Estimated 30 minutes for 30GB file!
    Expected result: SCVMM uses SMB 3.0 to make the copy. The source and destination are on the same SMB 3.0 share. The transfer of data should be offloaded by SERVER1, instead of reading all data then write it back cross network. (And from unknown reason the
    BITS is even much slower than network file copy).
    Did I miss anything? Any way to force SCVMM to do such offload copy?  Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi acacac1,
    >>Actual:  It appears SCVMM clone the VM files with BITS, it is painfully slow. All data travel through network. Estimated 30 minutes for 30GB file!
    Did you try to disable BITS then clone the VM again for test ?
    Any further information please feel free to let us know .

  • Upgrading to Acrobat X Web service calls slower...

    Hey,
    we made a plug-in button using javascript that takes the current document and sends it to a server using a webservice, the document is divided in chunks and sent to the server in size of 10 mg per chunk.
    this plug-in was working great, until the customer demanded that we migrate to acrobat x.
    we ran the same code and hit the wall to something similiar to this problem:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/756218?decorator=print&displayFullThrea d=true
    see, we figured out that the time it takes to communicate with the web service became slower depending on the size of the parameter sent to this service.
    when sending a chunk of 10 mega using 9 it took almost 15 sec.
    when sending a chunk of 80 kbyte using x it took almost 15 min.
    a sample code is shown below:
        var stream = Collab.documentToStream(document);
        var service = Net.SOAP.connect(url);
        var bound = 10485760;
        var documentSize = document.filesize;
        var thermo = app.thermometer;
        thermo.duration = Math.round(documentSize / bound);
        thermo.text = "Sending document to server";
        var counter = 0;
        thermo.begin();
        try {
            var stringReaded;
            var fileName = '';
            var parameter = {
                soapType: "xsd:string"
            do {
                thermo.value = counter;
                stringReaded = stream.read(bound);
                    parameter.jsonPdf = stringReaded;
                    fileName = service.SavePdf(parameter);
                counter++;
            while (stringReaded.length == bound * 2);
        catch (e) {
            app.alert(e);
        thermo.end();
    Update:
    Just un-installed x and downgraded to 9 with typical installation
    works like a sharm...
    still its needed to be deployed in 10 or x, any help is much appreciated

    What happens when you deactivate the Thermometer code?
    I believe to remember having the IMHO weird effect in Acrobat 9 that under some circumstances the Thermometer was speeding things up. This "bug" may have been "fixed" in 10.
    HTH.

  • Sun Web Server 6.1 Insert into Oracle Database problem

    Hello there,
    I'm using Sun Java Studio Creator 2004Q2 Update 7, and trying to deploy to Sun ONE Web Server 6.1 SP3 without much luck.
    I am trying to use ojdbc14.jar and have included it in a lib directory added to Native Lib Path Prefix.
    DataSource Classname oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource
    URL jdbc:oracle:thin:@myserver:1521:myinstance
    JNDI Name jdbc/HBC
    In the constructor I have:
            // <editor-fold defaultstate="collapsed" desc="Creator-managed Component Initialization">
            try {
                abcRowSet.setDataSourceName("java:comp/env/jdbc/HBC");
                abcRowSet.setCommand("SELECT ALL ABC.TT.XX, ABC.TT.YY, ABC.TT.ZZ FROM ABC.TT");
                abcRowSet.setConcurrency(java.sql.ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                log("TestEntry Initialization Failure", e);
                throw e instanceof javax.faces.FacesException ? (FacesException) e: new FacesException(e);
            // </editor-fold>
            // Additional user provided initialization code
             try {
                 abcRowSet.execute();
                 abcRowSet.next();
             } catch (Exception ex) {
    Then in the submit button action I have:
            try {
              abcRowSet.moveToInsertRow();
              abcRowSet.updateString("XX",fieldXX.getValue().toString());
              abcRowSet.updateString("YY",fieldYY.getValue().toString());
              abcRowSet.updateString("ZZ",fieldZZ.getValue().toString());
              abcRowSet.insertRow();
              abcRowSet.moveToCurrentRow();
              abcRowSet.commit();
            } catch (SQLException se) {
                error("ERROR SQLException: " + se);
                log("LOG SQLException: " + se);
                try {
                    abcRowSet.rollback();
                } catch (SQLException se2) {
                    log("ROLLBACK SQLException: " + se2);
    When I run this I get:
            [25/Apr/2005:20:32:41] info ( 2652): for host 127.0.0.1 trying to POST /hbc/faces/TestEntry.jsp,
            service-j2ee reports: WEB2798: [/hbc] ServletContext.log(): LOG SQLException:
            java.sql.SQLException: Invalid operation for read only resultset: moveToInsertRowAlternatively (1) I have tried to have automatically generated rave connection pool / jdbc resources and copying over the driveradapter.jar but as we know that version is locked for embedded applications only (since Creator only includes the AppServer PE's driveradapter which cannot be deployed on WebServers).
    Alternatively (2) I have tried manually setting up the connection pool / jdbc resources and copying over the smutil.jar / smoracle.jar / smbase.jar but it complains about java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.sql.jdbc.oracle.OracleDriver
    Is there a pain-free way to get Creator to play with Web Server 6.1 nicely? I seem to either run into Oracle THIN JDBC problems (main code above) or otherwise running into situations where Creator and Web Server 6.1 doesn't like each other (alternative 1 and 2).
    Thanks for your input

  • Safari painfully slow on new Mac Mini

    I know there have been a number of threads on this topic and I have tried all of the tricks listed but Safari is still painfully slow to load web pages. I have tested my internet connection and it is fine. The real interesting thing here is that when I boot up under Windows (using Boot Camp) web pages load blazingly fast under IE, so it seems unlikely that I have a hardware problem. I have also tried Firefox with similar results. I love this new machine but I am pulling my hair out over its browsing performance.
    Anyone have a (new) thought?

    Please try a test account to see how Safari works
    there, if you do not have an other user account,
    Go to System preferences ->Accounts ->Login Options
    Tried this and believe it or not the problem was worse!
    se the [+] to create one, you can later use [-] to
    delete/remove the account.
    Do you use a third party Firewall or one on your
    router ?
    No on both accounts
    Do you use DHCP Lease ?
    Yes, I hit the "renew lease" button which had no effect
    In the Network ->TCP/IP tab do you have DNS # values
    entered in the
    DNS Servers box.
    No entries in the DNS
    Proxies tab, do you have any proxies selected ? if
    Yes how does Safari surf with out it ?
    No proxies selected
    Let us know what your findings are.
    Eme: )
    I am going to try FireFox again and see if there are any things I can tweak that make it bearable.
    Thanks, Richard

  • Web Server

    Any help would be appreciated.
    My question is as follows:
    Enabled server-side include in Web Server.
    When I put the following
    <!--#include file ="web-root directory/web/index.html" -->
    is working BUT when I put
    <!--#include file="index.html" -->
    is not working.
    Any idea. Please help

    The idea was that file would treat its argument as the filename of a plain file while virtual would treat its argument as the URI of web resource. That is, file would include a simple, plain text file while virtual would invoke normal Web Server processing that would respect ACLs and path mappings and work with dynamic content such as CGI programs and JSPs. You would expect, then, that virtual would be somewhat slower.
    The reality is that both end up doing the same thing; both work the way that virtual was intended to. You should use virtual for clarity.
