I’ve started getting “This site can’t be reached” errors when trying to reach my site with a web browser. I can still ping it, log into it with SSH, and run a PHP script with the command line. Nothing new appears in the Apache error log after an attempt to reach it with a web browser. It uses a PostgreSQL database, which I can still access with the psql command, but not with PGAdmin anymore. What else should I look at to figure out why this is happening? I took a screenshot of output from the top command in case that could be helpful.
