Ubuntu Webserver Overload

March 22, 2007 on 8:52 am | In Ubuntu |

The Ubuntu website is currently experiencing too many concurrent connections and, as such, is displaying error messages. I’m not sure whether a [distributed] denial of service attack is underway or if there are simply too many people trying to access it, but it’s very odd one way or another - I cannot remember the last time this happened to Ubuntu (has it ever?).

How odd. Keep your eyes on the news :)

  3. Yes… I think they’re going to have to tweak Drupal slightly to make it run fewer queries on the database and more efficiently overall. It’s a shame it happened to Ubuntu.com but, fortunately, the problem was resolved not long after (or appeared to be) :) I still think they’re going to have some tweaking to do though.
