 Posted: Tue 10 Feb '15 22:37 Post subject: wordpress backend on apache extremely slow. |
 |
|
Hi community,
first of all I have to say, that I am a totally noob with apache and hopr to find some help here.
Here's the problem: I realized a website on wordpress for a client that needs to run this as intranet. I developed the whole project on a local environment with vagrant. I also installed the whole project for testing at my hosting provider. Everything works fine.
Some days ago I installed the whole project on the clients server. Bad thing is, as it is a intranet server, I have no access. The IT department set up an apache server on a linux system. Installation went also fine. We had to correct the host address as we had another on our test environment and with import we also imported mysql tables with wrong host address. We did search and replace in PhpMyAdmin and then everything worked.
The frontend is working fine but the backend of wordpress is incredibally slow. I deactivated all plugins and activated basic theme but had no success in speed.
My prblem is, that I have no exerience in server configuration as I normally work with hosting companies, that do the job for me. Now the IT department of the company is not really helping as the are not really interested in setting up this project.
My question now is. Has anyone an Idea how the slow speed is caused? What could be the mistake? How can I find the mistake.
I hope you can help me  |

Does the client server run the same apache version? The same apache MPM?
The same PHP version? Wordpress runs a lot faster with the last PHP version. |

| I am not quite sure but will check. I guess this could not be the main reason. Becaus we have loading time of up to 60 sec... |

| Did you define 127.0.0.1 for the mysql connection? I often had issue with localhost because of an IPv6 issue. The Client OS is Windows? |

| Yes client OS is windows. The Mysql Table is on another server so the IP is 172.20.20.184 wordpress is on 172.20.20.185 |

| You should do an installation with the MySQL DB locally. |

mhm maybe I am wrong, but two servers are virtual servers. Physically database and files are on the same Harddrive I guess. Or what do you mean by locally? sorry for dumb questions  |

| He means that you should install it in the same virtual machine that runs apache. |

ok, I understand.
but the frontend is fast if the database connection is to slow, the frontend would be slow as well? |
