Hi,
Gave restart commands as follows;
sudo service php5-fpm restart sudo service nginx restart
Server is down immediately after. Any of you guys have an idea of why that happened and how to get going again?
Many thanks

Logs are your friends. Check the nginx error log. That should give you some clue as to why it is crashing.
Check the logs, also run top when you start the server to see the load. <br> <br>Also check to see if you are under DDOS attack run <br> <br>netstat -plan|grep :80|awk {‘print $5’}|cut -d: -f 1|sort|uniq -c|sort -n for port 80 <br> <br>netstat -plan|grep :80|awk {‘print $5’}|cut -d: -f 1|sort|uniq -c|sort -n for port 443 <br> <br>If you are being Dos attacked you need to setup a software firewall and ban the ip. <br> <br>When you run those commands you’ll get a list of IPs and a number beside them this number is the number of connections there opening to your web server.
Sorry its <br> <br>netstat -plan|grep :443|awk {‘print $5’}|cut -d: -f 1|sort|uniq -c|sort -n for port 443(ssl)
