Problem with memcached

1. SSH access your server
2. nano /etc/csf/csf.pignore
3. These are the entries I've added for redis:

exe:/usr/bin/redis-server
4. For memcached look at the warning you got in email and put the executable line with a "exe:" before it.


Tell me if it helped.

That only ignores it, but does not stop it from happening..

The question we are ALL asking, why does it happen in the first place so we can narrow down the cause and stop it.

But none of the staff here can be bothered to help... It's so frustrating.

If anyone wants the answer to this see here - https://www.interserver.net/tips/kb/disable-lfd-excessive-resource-usage-alert/

First I use CWP Pro
1. In CWP go to ConfigServer Scripts > ConfigServer firewall > lfd - Login Failure Daemon
2. Select and edit csf.pignore - add this line
exe:/usr/bin/memcached

Attention /bin not /sbin

for anyone else with this problem, in the file manager go to /etc/csf/csf.pignore. add 'exe:/usr/bin/memcached' to stop emails. You have to restart 'service lfd restart', or reboot the server whenever is easier.
