UC Playerworld lag

[Cubical]

I'm experiencing some really bad serverside lag on my UC playerworld 'Serenity.' I've noticed that it is taking classes anywhere from 20-90+ seconds to load on login. I don't think it's any of my code as nothing has changed since last night when it was working fine. I've restarted the NPC-Server and that did not help. Is anyone else experiencing the same thing or have any suggestions on things to try? I have a limited amount of time each week to play around on it so when things like this happen it really hinders my ability to do anything. I just need to figure out if it's user error or an issue that others are experiencing.

EDIT 2: I've determined it's an issue with the server by commenting out everything.

It would leave me to believe some other UC server is hogging all the resources.

That is what I was assuming as well. It's currently making mine unusable. I thought there was a way on graal.us to view what servers are on the same machine but I looked and guess there isn't.

[Cubical]

There was a DBNPC that I did not comment out and I determined that the following query was causing lag out of nowhere when it's been working for months so this is more of a coding question than a bug report now.

PHP Code:



temp.query = "UPDATE player_items SET equipped='1' WHERE playeraccount='" @ player.account @ "' AND itemid='" @ itemid @ "'"; 


[Cubical]

Once again, I'm incorrect. I have now removed every piece of code from the server and I'm still experiencing the same issues. It turns out that whenever I do a query for ANYTHING in the SQLite database it locks up. Even dropping empty tables cause a 2+ minute freeze on the serverside.

Did you try deleting your SQLite db file?

No, it seems it only occurs when writing to the database but not requesting data from it. Also I feel like just deleting the databse isn't a very good resolution to the issue. It's just not practical if you have a live server not that it is a live classic server but I'd prefer to know whats causing it so I can take preventive measures to keep it from happening again. As a last resort I will delete the database but I just don't see it being practical.

[fowlplay4]

Well make a backup of the database but starting from a fresh one should at least help you narrow down where the issue is.

There were some network problems which we are working on.

Also on RC on Era constantly getting disconnected now as well as a message spamming my RC saying "You don't have admin rights", so frustrating when scripting as I've got to exit RC.

I don't think old accounts can even log in using their mail.

It lets me log in via shrimps or my email, but I don't like that as it shows my email in history window. =/

Were they effecting just writing to a SQLite database?

Any status on this after 18 days? people still complaining hardcore, is it sure its a network problem and not a ddos? era seems to get ddosed every night and it hurts zodiac because they share the same host server.
