The same problem for more than a month. I search for a solution, and I did not find it. Every hour it stops, and it cannot be worked on

Hello @climaxninja

You can check the server logs for more details. It is possible that the server runs out of resources (CPU, RAM) and halts/reboots.

The syslog will be a good place to start. You can run the following command:

  1. sudo cat /var/log/syslog | grep -i "panic\|error\|hang"

This should return any error messages that can explain the problem you’re currently experiencing.
