My Cpu Utilitzation went above 100% when i Installed a new theme and was trying to setup it's settings. But after that I can't reach ip address it says "" I wanted to suspend and resume the instance. Can anyone tell me if it will give any problems. How can I solve this issue.
This site can’t be reached
domain.com took too long to respond.
I think it could be two reasons for this behaviour-- It could be a problem with your instance or with the IP.
If you don't have your external IP address reserved, the IP will be released when you stop your instance and when you start your instances again, GCP will provide a new External IP.
You can check what External IP you have on the External IP addresses, and try to access your WordPress site through this new IP.
To avoid this problem in the future you can promote your ephemeral external IP address, you can use this guide as reference or follow the next steps:
In the Cloud Console, go to the External IP addresses page.
In the Type column, change the address type to Static for the IP address you want to promote.
Provide a name for the new static IP address and click Reserve.
In this way, the next time you stop your instance you will keep your IP.
Please keep in mind that, if your IP address has changed, you need to update your DNS with the new IP.
Additionally, I suggest increasing your resources per your convenience to enhance your performance, because the behaviour you mentioned in your CPU usage is a good indicator that your existing machine type is not a good fit for your workloads you run on that instance.
Changing a machine type
1.- Go to the VM Instances page.
2.- In the Name column, click on your instance.
From the instance details page, complete the following steps:
a) Click the Stop button to stop the instance, if you have not stopped it yet.
b) After the instance stops, click the Edit button at the top of the page.
c) Under the Machine configuration section, select the machine type you want to use.
d) Save your changes and start again your VM Instance.
I suggest to reserve the IP before any change in your instance.
On the other hand, I recommend you review the following guides on asking questions in order to provide a better context on what you're doing and what you want to achieve: How do I ask a good question? and How to create a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example?

I have followed the guides at https://www.azerothcore.org/acore-docker/, and everything installs and works fine. Auth, WorldServer, DB, etc all work. However, when trying to play locally (LAN, main computer with client, the server on a different Windows machine on same LAN), it consistently loops back to realm selection.
So, I searched here and found these two questions/answers:
Azerothcore: Looping on Realm Selection List
How to resolve sticking in "Realm Selection"?
I have followed the guide in the bottom one, and have changed the Address field in the database to my external IP address (assigned by ISP). The LocalAddress is 127.0.0.1 The rest of the information appears to be correct.
When trying to connect via the external IP, it won't connect at all. But when I try setting my realmlist to 127.0.0.1 it will connect and log me in, but continually loops back to the realm selection screen.
To make sure it was updating, I changed the name of the realm and it shows up correctly when I try and log in. So the data appears to be saved to the database, but I cannot get it to connect from the LAN.
Followed the official guides, and changed the IP address in the DB to external IP. Same result, except now it takes a few seconds to connect and try to log into the realm. Then fails, back to realm selection.
Help would be appreciated. Thanks.
It's 99.9% related to your networking. That's what it turns out to be for pretty much everyone asking this question.
Most likely either a port isn't forwarded correctly, or your firewall prevents the connection. Try and use an external service to verify if the port is open. (Do a search for "Port open check"). Also, check your firewall to have the worldserver listed as an exception in the right folder.
Another common mistake is to change the "default" values when using HeidiSQL in the realmlist db instead of changing the actual values in the 'data' tab.
I have deployed my services in one of GCP compute engine where we make external HTTP service calls to pull data and process them for our purposes. From last two days, this call is failing with connection timeout. I have tried the same in my system. Things do work smoothly. No changes which are applied in the cloud account at all. Any possible issues which is causing this issue?
I have validated the firewall rules. Everything looks to be fine. Appreciate your valuable suggestions.

it's been a while now since you've asked. Is this still happening? If yes please read on. Otherwise please close the posting.
Your message is quite short on details. I'm going to recap what I got:
What I got from your description
The GCE VM should be connected to the public net (I suppose it's having one of the setups: a direct public IP or an instance group member with Load Balancer or an inter connected VPC with another cloud subscription or GCP project through which it connects to the internet, without an own public IP for the VM)
The VM is not a GKE cluster instance
The VM is hosting some kind of "services" (I suppose this is some kind of containerized services?)
These services relay on establishing outbound connection to the internet
From running the same services on your local machine you can see no malfunction, the service code is ok (I suppose you deploy exactly the same code and an almost identical configuration to the VM?)
No changes have happened to the cloud account (I suppose you mean the subspriction and the project as well?)
Nothing from all this has been changed at all??
Things I'd be controlling in this situation
As your descriptin of the situation is unfortunately very rough, I'd try to give you a rough overview how I'd propose you to proceed in this order. Meanwhile please provide more details on the VM situation described above:
Public IP - No instance group with Load Balancer, No inter connected VPC:
Go to Compute Engine > VM Instances and check the External IP column. Go to Column Display Options in the top right corner of the table and enable the column if you don't see it. Make sure there is an IP here.
If the external IP exists, log in to your VM and make sure that you can ping any public internet site you know working
Trace the connection to the public site to get the route your network flow is taking
Ping the host from the next hop to your local network connection and make sure it's "really" reachable
Check whether you are having a local Firewall on your VM and disable it for a testing moment, ping again the router (or next host on the route towards the public site, from your tracing step above)
Meanwhile please provide more details on the VM situation described above
I got my public ip by www.whatismyip.com, but it changed every modem restart. Any hope to get a list of public ip as history.
Kindest Regards,
There are three ways I can think of to achieve this:
Router Logs
External DNS Service
Custom Tool
Router Logs
This is highly dependent on the model of your router and what it stores. Consult your router's documentation for more specific instructions.
External DNS Service
This would be the easiest to do. On your router you would configure a dynamic DNS service such as No-IP, DynDNS, etc.
I am not sure about DynDNS, but for No-IP, they have 90 days of IP address history for their "Plus Managed DNS" paid plan.
Custom Tool
If you are tight on budget, you could write a script that pulls the results of www.whatismyip.com or a similar service every time you turn your PC on or on a regular schedule.
The simplest address to pull would be to download http://checkip.dyndns.org which is a page with "Current IP Address: 155.143.XXX.XXX" as it's content. Download the file, check if the last one is different, if different, save to a CSV file. There are various grievances to this, but it's free and could be done with a simple script.
If http://checkip.dyndns.org is too simple, you can also use https://ifconfig.co
I'm running five wordpress sites (#EC2) all having it's own elastic IP tied to a proper domain name. I reached the max limit when wanted to launch another site (another domain).
Besides of the obvious; asking for more EIPs, can I use route 53 and pointing to the dynamic EC2 hostname?
As far as I understand this will destroy/mess-up all internal links of the wordpress instance, the moment I reboot or stop/start the instance, because it gets a new IP/hostname and all image-links of wordpress by default are absolute for SEO reasons.
Has anybody found a solution to this, or is my only option to ask for more EIPs?
In my opinion, requesting more EIP's is going to be the easier way to go.
You can set up your DNS to point the public ip of any instance, if its not an eip, it will change if the instance ever stop/started again. In which case you need to update DNS.
Wordpress doesn't really care what the hostname or ip address is of the instance. It cares what hostname you want it to respond to. Even if the underlying ip changes, as long as the hostname records are updated to the new IP, you wont have any issues.
I have been asked to get details of every user that logs into our website. Is it possible to capture the IP address of every user that logs into our website from which I can gather details using IP lookup software.
It's already captured. Check out the web logs for whatever your webserver is.
In IIS, it's likely in C:\Windows\System32\LogFiles. Apache will normally be in /var/log.
You can tweak the specifics of what it captures, but by default IP address is always included.
Unless you are explicitly required to store the ip:s yourself, I recommend using Google Analytics, which will sort out unique/returning visitors, geographical locations and so on.
