Site keeps getting knocked offline

  • Hello,

    I seem to be having some problems.

    Firstly my website seems to go very slow, and then it gets knocked offline completely. I’ve checked the error logs and the following message keeps on getting repeated every few seconds:-

    [Fri Jul 17 14:20:32 2009] [error] [client ::1] Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/html/

    Usage: file [-bcikLhnNsvz] [-f namefile] [-F separator] [-m magicfiles] file…
    file -C -m magicfiles
    Try `file –help’ for more information.

    Does anyone have any idea what it is/could be?

    Can anyone help, please?

    Would be helpfull if you can give the URL so we can see what exactly is going on.

    In the meantime you can try deactivating or removing plugins that you dont use or need down to the bare minimun leaving only the seential ones.

    Switch to the default theme and see how the site behaves. Overload of too many js scripts can slow a site down, especialy if your host has memmory restriction. Disable google ads (if you have any) and check if any improment.
