HelioHost Posted March 14, 2025 Posted March 14, 2025 VPS number: 107, VPS ID: 683Could you please disable the Python process for now, I currently do not need it and the memory issues are preventing me from logging in to the SSH. ________________________________
Krydos Posted March 14, 2025 Posted March 14, 2025 I logged in to SSH and noticed that clamd was using about 500 MB of your 1024 MB memory. I ran the following commands to disable it. root@vps107:~# systemctl stop clamav-daemon.service Stopping 'clamav-daemon.service', but its triggering units are still active: clamav-daemon.socket root@vps107:~# systemctl stop clamav-daemon.socket root@vps107:~# systemctl disable clamav-daemon.service Synchronizing state of clamav-daemon.service with SysV service script with /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install. Executing: /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install disable clamav-daemon Removed "/etc/systemd/system/sockets.target.wants/clamav-daemon.socket". Removed "/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/clamav-daemon.service". root@vps107:~# systemctl disable clamav-daemon.socket If you're not familiar clamav is an antivirus software that uses massive amounts of memory. We don't recommend running it on 1 GB memory VPS because it doesn't leave much memory to run anything else. If you want to upgrade to a higher amount of memory you can do so at https://heliohost.org/dashboard/upgrade/
datadecayvps Posted March 14, 2025 Posted March 14, 2025 I did not install clamv, I just installed node, python, and apache.
datadecayvps Posted March 16, 2025 Posted March 16, 2025 Sorry for the late reply, I did not install a control panel, but I installed and uninstalled an email server software and may have forgot to uninstall the reminents
Krydos Posted March 16, 2025 Posted March 16, 2025 Yeah, clamav is commonly used to scan emails for viruses. We recommend upgrading to at least 2 GB memory if you want to run it.
