Why is my webmail always causing server overload. I normally have to kill these process.

If you are on the latest builds and this issue persists, I recommend letting our technical analysts take a look at this for you: http://tickets.cPanel.net/submit

cpanelro is eating the cpu and the ram.

Also having this problem on a server today.

[s1llyforyou]

hello

i have same problem
let me know more on this process
what is this process?

[GTFO]

Is their any news or threads about this because my server is having similar problems in which this cpanelro process is eating my resources, and I have no clue what it is or who is running it.

[GTFO]

Let me go ahead and post a link to this thread so that I can save everyone some time searching. This is the only other mention of cpanelro on the forums, (so far) but it links back to this thread.

Seriously need some clarification on this Mods, any ideas ?

[dexus]

This just happend to me on one server for the first time...

strace shows nothing, like process is not doing anything just using 100% CPU.

[s1llyforyou]

hello

cpanelro is the account used by cPanel to run roundcube (webmail). Roundcube
can be resource intensive, and can use a large amount of ram/cpu in some
cases.
If you would like, you can disable roundcube webmail.

WHM: Main >> Server Configuration >> Tweak Settings >> Mail

Uncheck: "RoundCube Webmail"

[dexus]

No, that is not the reason here, we are talking about stucked proces that can just use 100% CPU for hours and have to be killed eventually.

[LeetWebH]

Any update on this issue? Ive seen the same thing happend to my server, lucky its a quad core and it doesnt affect it that much, but it aint no good to see 100% of one core being wasted by a faulty cpanel module

[hekri]

Any update? The same problems on couple servers after update to last stable.

[sweetsteve]

I'm also seeing this, killing my server. I kill off the process and it keeps coming back with up to 20 or so copies running.
