Most of the times it occurs due to an influx of federation requests by other servers federated with your instance, so it may not be caused by any of your actions.

Hey, looks like your server crashed because the OS decided to kill the database process due to OOM (out of memory), it happens when the database requires more memory than it is available. There probably was some usage spike which resulted in your server overwhelming the database.

To avoid this from happening in future, we have configured the database to allow limited connections and buffer size, which will prevent the OS from killing it.

A few people have asked why the information on our website (https://gofedi.com) is currently so minimal.

The short answer is: we had to move quickly. SpaceHost is shutting down very soon, and we’re working hard to fill the gap before their doors close for good.

To be clear, we are not SpaceHost. But both @atomicpoet and @rjbasitali used to work there—and we’re building GoFedi because services like SpaceHost should exist.
