recently caused my sites to hit res

  • Have used, and loved, this plugin for many years. Recently my host reported resource limits exceeded. After hours of investigation, I narrowed it down to this plugin. I’m not sure if a recent update caused this problem. I do know disabling this plugin is what allows my wordpress sites to not exceed resources. The symptom is the Entry Processes slowly increase until reaching the resource limit.

    Thank you for the report. Do you have any more information about this issue? For example, do you know which script(s) in particular were being executed by those growing processes?

    At the moment, the only possible explanation that comes to mind is some kind of a Cron issue where Cron events might get duplicated or run more frequently than they’re supposed to. You could try looking at existing Cron events using a tool like WP Crontrol. Events related to this plugin usually have a hook name that starts with “elm” or “Elm”. See if pausing or deleting them has any effect.

    Yes, I think it is a cron issue – see error from my log below. My WP cron is setup to use a unix cron job which runs every 30 mins. Any suggestions?

    Cron reschedule event error for hook: Elm_Plugin_emailErrors_hook, Error code: invalid_schedule, Error message: Event schedule does not exist., Data: {"schedule":"900secs","args":[],"interval":900}

Cron reschedule event error for hook: action_scheduler_run_queue, Error code: invalid_schedule, Error message: Event schedule does not exist., Data: {"schedule":"every_minute","args":["WP Cron"],"interval":60}

    I’ve done some testing by manually triggering wp-cron.php and I haven’t been able to reproduce that error.

    Is there anything else on your site that could affect the execution of WordPress Cron events? For example, is there something that prevents some/all plugins from being loaded in certain contexts? ELM uses a custom schedule, so you might get an error like that if the cron job runs and the plugin isn’t loaded for some reason.
