  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Server is down (very often)

Dork

Regular Pleskian
Server operating system version
AlmaLinux 8.10
Plesk version and microupdate number
Plesk Obsidian 18.0.67 Update #3

The threshold of Apache & PHP-FPM memory usage has been exceeded​

That leads into a shutdown of the server.
But I don't use any own PHP software or PHP-FPM.

So what can I do?
 
You could look into the httpd processes. First list them, e.g. # ps aux | grep httpd. Are there many? What is their cpu usage? You could also check if you are really running without PHP-FPM (unlikely!), e.g. # ps aux | grep php-fpm. I also recommend running this overview from time to time to see what your server is doing "live":
# MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` watch "uptime && echo "\ " && ps aux | sort -nrk 3,3 | head -n 20 && echo "\ " && mysqladmin proc status -u admin"
 
Ok - I did the tests and I really run no php website. as I could see, some plesk funktions are running php in combination wih fpm (pool: plesk) but I havn't configured a pool on myself. So my problem is still present.
 
Maybe you could describe the issue in a bit more detail. Without further analysis, e.g. a look into log files or at least the process list as suggested above it will not be possible to assist.
