Ever since the first few days of my blogs existence I've been getting white screens of death. If SSH into my server and restart apache and mysql, it goes away (I'm using bitnami). It happens infrequently enough that my site functions OK right now, but it occurs:
- Sometimes when posting new content or otherwise editing stuff.
- Roughly once an hour when I've seen higher traffic than normal (100 visitors/hr)
- 50% of the time when trying to run a scan from the P3 plugin profiler. This is the only way I can consistently trigger it.
It occurred more frequently when I had the YOAST SEO plugin and the wyjiat(spelling?) news letter plugin. Removing those 2, along with some other minor ones, seems to have reduced WSOD's occurrences (intact I thought I'd solved it) but within the last 2 days it's been flaring up again, and P3 scans now consistently cause it.
The only thing that I could thing of that could be causing it is that I had to install MYSQL again (it is installed as part of bitnami) because it was a dependency for some other programs I needed to install on my server. I know that when I reboot my server, this other version of mysql starts up, and i need to stop it and make sure bitnamis MYSQL is running each time. However, I'm not sure how to separate the 2 and running "sudo apt-get uninstall mysql" seems like a bad idea ;). Thoughts?
