Script configuration includes the number of bytes to read per page and allow pagination through the error log . Additionally, table columns are sortable and full description of every error is displayed using MonnaTip.

– Make sure to check Nginx, PHP posts for information on Nginx and PHP setup and configuration.
Nginx offers two modules, HttpLimitReqModule and HttpLimitZoneModule, to limit simultaneous connections for the assigned session and the number of requests for a given session from one IP address. Basically these modules are built to protect the web server from possible DDos attacks; For example, this configuration limits remote clients to no more than 20 concurrently “open” connections per remote ip address:
http{
limit_conn_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=concurrent:10m;
limit_conn_log_level warn;
limit_conn concurrent 20;
I recently installed Disqus plugin for WordPress; however, I have been receiving this message “unable to connect to the disqus api servers.” By looking into the source code, it looks like curl is the problem! more specifically the _dsq_curl_urlopen() function, but I did not investigate this error further. As fortunately, we can easily switch to the alternative function _dsq_fsockopen_urlopen().
