Hi terminussystems,
I suggest you clear cookies.
I have no problem here with logging into cPanel.
Sometimes when the server is not functioning correctly it blips out and generates completely new session IDs with the reboot.
Try to clear the cookies for the cPanel website.
It will work as it is here.
I noticed this myself on my other browser, but all is fine.
If you're already logged into the server, this shouldn't affect you whatsoever.
I just wanted to say I spotted some Malware in the advertisments of another member's website last week.
I believe the fact that Malware is being used is why the server is running much slower.
Because of the resources such scripts take up.
This, I don't believe is any members' fault, just the advertisment vendors chosen by some members by accident.
This could be why x10hosting is experiencing slow serving from time to time.
If you parse a HTML page, the error does not occur always.
The error seems to be caused at the Apache server (possibly overloaded by DoS), and it's feeling strain to communicate with the modules (hence 500 error). Then it has to send back the 500 error, and if the traffic is also overloaded, a Network Timeout occurs.
If x10's system administrators probe Apache, and then restart the whole server, any DoS will be cut off.
This should be repeated until the server comes online.
If a DDoS is occuring, x10 should look in their logs for source, and block the incoming IP from gaining access.
It could be something different.
But if any admin is listening, please try probing the server, if not back-up as much as you can, and obtain a new IP from x10's ISP provider, if possible.
This will not be good for reputation, however, sorting it out ASAP may help many of the users here.
Regards,
Jim
