Tracing the piwik.php during runtime problems

General questions
1

Hello,

Im using the standard tracking-code piwik gives me via the console.
My monitoring shows me that the piwik.php spontaneously takes a long time until it’s finished.
I’m searching for an idea if I can configure something special so I get a debug trace or something else in a logfile on the server for analysing what happens in this situations.
Thank you for your suggestions.

Regards,
Jens

Please try to disable the Provider plugin and try again?

Hello Matt,

the plugin is disabled now. I take a look at the piwik.php.

Hello Matt,

now I have the response times for 24h and I can see the same runtime problems like before deactivating Provider plugin.
I don’t have runtime problems in general. Normally the piwik.php request takes between 50 and 150ms. But during 24h I can also see response times of 500 - 100ms. I can see this behaviour at 10-15% of all monitored requests.

Thanks for your hint with the Provider plugin.

Regards,
Jens

The next thing you can try, is to setup auto archiving as explained in: How to Set up Auto-Archiving of Your Reports - Analytics Platform - Matomo

Thanks for the hint!
Is auto archiving via cronjob different from the archiving I can customize vie the settings menu?
In the settings menu I configured archiving for every 3600 seconds (1h). What is different betwenn this and the auto archiving cronjob?

Thanks,
Jens
