• I’ve been using wordpress for over a year using Canaca as my host. Recently I my host suspended my account due to “overloading the server with PHP scripts.” I have a meagre low traffic blog and cannot understand this. The sent me the text below as evidence but I can’t decifer it. Does anyone know what may be causing my site to have such a problem with PHP scripts?

  • Please assume that we know nothing about your wordpress setup and please give some details. We’re you doing any redirects or other tricks? Plugins? How much is ‘low traffic?’ ??

    That is a high number for PHP though. Not sure why it’s being run by admin128 though.

    HI.. sorry about the lack of details. I’m running the standard Kubric blog design using wordpress 2. I’m using the widgets plugin, a subscribe2 plugin (https://www.skippy.net/blog/2005/02/17/subscribe2/) and Filosofo Home-Page Control (https://www.ilfilosofo.com/blog/home-page-control).

    What makes a PHP run high or low??
    I have no idea what admin128 is or why two users are indicated rather than one.
    My host replied to me saying that in order to unsuspend my account I must upgrade to the VPS Virtual Server.

    As for traffic, I wouldn’t be able to say because access to my administration panel is denied as well. But my site is a blog with no advertisments, no sales, nothing big at all.
