Open to suggestions. Still intend on trying downgrade to 5.6 and see if any difference.
Also- if any Moderator could fix the typo in title of this post I'd be grateful
i think this is all very problematic. the inexpensive nature of VPSs now allow almost anyone to spin one up. if you pay attention to what is going on in your system logs, you will see that almost as soon as you spin up a server on the internet, someone will attempt to break in and make use of it.
so unless one is focused on security, including the monitoring of logs, you will not see who is really pounding on your machine.
i am NOT saying that is what is going on here, i just needed to rant a bit on system administration, of which i am not an expert, but which interests me a bit....
any public facing VPS needs to be hardened. and while i am not per se knowledgeable of this Virtualmin control panel, i am a fan of running debian linux, with only key access to a non-secured user who can then elevate his security privileges to enact system changes. and only doing this via the command line....
back to the problem at hand, if you were to downgrade to 5.6, and it were to work, you would have no idea why. the php.ini file, which contains most of your configuration data, is different between versions, and the default values are no doubt different.
i would like to re-iterate. changing the line in YOUR_ADMIN/includes/application_top.php to:
Code:
if (!defined('DEBUG_AUTOLOAD')) define('DEBUG_AUTOLOAD', true);
will provide a wealth of information as to what your problem might be.
good luck.
