    This is weird but here it goes :-).

    @tadeas I have validated your mail here. We got your email to support but it does not have a working email (the FROM address is not gmail) and it's thus bouncing. Please send us an email from your gmail account. Thanks.

      Thanks 🙂 (I used to have g. apps for my domain for many years, which is still working to send emails from, even after I migrated to cloudron)

      Anyway, here's the issue ---

      I've been using cloudron for about 6 months now. Usually every 4 weeks I need to login via ssh and manually reboot, because the server stops responding (mail, calendar, etc.). I didn't have time to troubleshoot that.

      Now however, the mail&calendar became inaccessible and the my.* interface was saying update in progress for many hours. I rebooted and now I'm only getting an error page from the cloudron.

      Logging into the server via ssh, I see mysql is not working and also does not restart.

      Unbound service also not working, but starts if I restart it.

      I don't know how other services are doing.

      This happened by itself, I was not doing anything with the server. I can of course wipe the server, reinstall and load a backup, but I would prefer not to have this happen again.

      I have now wiped the server and am restoring from backup, I can have it offline for longer.

      But I will leave this here for future reference.

      Thanks, T.

        @tadeas It's hard to tell what is happening, are you able give us SSH access to the server? SSH keys are here - https://cloudron.io/documentation/support/#remote-support

        Can you also tell us:

        1. Does the server have sufficient disk space? If it ran out of disk space, please use the procedure here - https://cloudron.io/documentation/server/#recovery-after-disk-full

        2. What version of Cloudron are you running?

        3. Can you paste the output of "ls -lh /var/lib/mysql/box"? If you see the eventlog to be very large (like in gigs), that is probably the root of all the problems.

        Thanks,

        Girish

          @girish Thanks for the response. I have wiped the server and did a restore, so I can't do what you suggest atm.

          There is/was plenty of space (42gb used out of 490), and ram (1gb out of 6gb).

          I was/am running 2.0.1.

          I'll check the event log size once the problem comes in again and will report here.
