@scottalanmiller said in MySQL/Wordpress issue:
Are you just running a single WordPress site here?
Yes. Single site.
Given that the site is now down... is there a good reason that you are running a WP site on your own instead of through a server (asks the guy who runs a service for that.)
It has been 2+ years since it has been set up this way. Wasn't broken, why fix it.
Wrong. . . . .
You patch and update to ensure things remain functional.
Not what I was asked. It has been patched to the version I have. Just not upgraded to Debian 9.
Updating is not AS important as patching, but is important. Older systems become continuously harder and harder to maintain over time and eventually start having their own risks of things breaking - partially because other things change around them and they don't adapt to them. Partially just because the gap between them and current gets larger and larger and knowledge of supporting them or the ability to update gets harder.

Have you changed any permissions or config files recently?
I had some issues with wordpress updating and had done some permission changes to wordpress files
Try shutting down Apache. THEN bring up MySQL. Let's see if MySQL dies when nothing is touching it.
-
If MySQL dies when Apache is offline, then we can rule out issues with Apache or WordPress as being the problem. I'm assuming this is a pure MySQL issue, but want to be sure.

Someone had to set it up that way to start with

What I meant by my statement was that it has been working. We didn't see a need to move it off a host to a wordpress specific site. I update it regularly but wasn't ready to upgrade to a new version of Debian at this time.

Well I think things are looking up. That was a good idea from Scott to shut down Apache and then work with mysql. I think you can go ahead and start Apache back up and let those run for a while to see what happens.
-
As soon as I start Apache2 MySQL stops working.
-
@wls-itguy Well thats a bummer. What does your apache error log say when that happens?
-
Okay, there is a really good chance that we have a WordPress issue here. I think that rolling back to before the last update might be the logical place to start.

Any bets on a compromised plugin causing issues?

If you want to isolate to WP (thought I cannot see how it is anything else), I would shut down apache,
mvyour WP directory elsewhere and start apache back up. -

mvyour WP directory elsewhere and start apache back up.True, but in theory it is the only thing running on Apache. So likely it was isolated in the last test, unless the other info wasn't correct.

Correct, but because of possible compromise issues, or just something he does not know about because he did not set it up, there is always a chance.
I do agree it will probably not come back showing anything but WP to be the issue.
-
I would check the Apache logs before rolling back as well.
Has the server been completely restarted? (I've followed the thread and haven't seen any mention of that.)

How about disabling plugins?

Yes. A few times
-
What's do the Apache logs look like?
(most likely in /var/log/apache2/apache.log and error.log)

There isn't an apache.logError Log:
