Summary report[edit]

S. Ignatov, a client of our hosting platform, owner of indiartcafe.com, has reported that the site is not responding. Initial check identified that the site resolves correctly to web01.hostbalkan.com. HTTP request starts, but waits indefinitely for response. Apache Web server has been restarted, but it did not resolve the issues. The php7.0-fpm service has been restarted and that resolved the issue.
