I was going crazy today.. my cf server has been really slow and throwing time out errors recently .. getting worse fast. and it is usually lightning fast.. then Verizon changed all of my static IP addresses at 4am this morning (they gave me a window between midnight and 6 am - and my website is in the middle of a big fundraising campaign) .. what a nightmare.. SO I wait up all night to make the changes but then the websites - even the cf admin - aren't working at all. I get cold fusion errors pages about not being able to get metrics or server errors or timed out. Both processors are pegged at 100% cpu and I can hear a lot of disk accesses. (They used to run about 3%) Since I just changed the IP addresses I figured I messed up someplace.. I reinstall cf, and it worked for about 30 seconds, then even the administrator wouldn't load.
JRUN is using 99% of the cpu. I rebooted a few times, and no luck. then I search house of fusion and found the answer immediately - the log files got too large. We were getting hammered with someone trying to do sql injections and cf was logging the cfparam mismatches ... the coldfusion-out.log got over 325 megabytes, even though in the admin I say to limit logs to 5 megabytes. (this is cf7).. I guess the log settings don't apply to this coldfusion-out.log in the cfusionMX7/runtime/logs directory, Just wanted to post in case anyone else see this problem.. and thanks to the list owners and members for creating such a great resource!
