btpython using 100% CPU and using up RAM

Zj410

aaPanel 7.0.11
Debian 12

When I logged into bt panel about a week ago I noticed that it was running at 100% CPU.

top showed btpython (up to 4 instances of btpython running at the same time) was using excessive CPU, rebooting fixes the problem temporarily

According to journalctl btpython is also sometimes using all the RAM

Upgraded to aaPanel 7.0.11, problem still happened. The only other thing I have done during the past week is upgrade the mail server to 5.4.5 from 5.3.x

killall btpython also works but only temporarily

Renaming breaking_through_check.py had no effect:
cd /www/server/panel/script
mv breaking_through_check.py breaking_through_check.py.old

I also stopped all 4 cron jobs in aaPanel that were setup by the system, I then rebooted.

The problem is still happening, it seems to happen every hour on the hour, eg. 2am, 3am, etc

Hello, thank you for your feedback. Is the server load high in the early morning? You can check it on the Monitorinterface
Is the server set up to back up the website database? at what time

aaPanel_Kern Is the server load high in the early morning? You can check it on the Monitorinterface

No the server load is not high, it is currently only being used as an email server for myself.

Is the server set up to back up the website database? at what time

No, it is not setup to do any backups

aaPanel_Kern You can also try to stop this task from running in Cron and observe again.

I disabled the Cut_maillog yesterday, interestingly there are 3 identical entries in Cron for Cut_maillog. The problem seems to have been reduced to 100% load every hour for a mintue, guessing with my stopping the 3 Cut_maillog entries.

Monitor reports that every hour the server load is 100% for 1 minute due to btpython. I checked the Monitor entires for 28 Sept 2024 and there was no 100% server load and I have not added any cron entires since then. Today, Monitor reports 100% CPU usage every hour either due to btpython or Cron. I checked /etc/cron.hourly and there are no entries there plus I have disabled all entries in aaPanel Cron

Why is btpython using 100% of system resources every hour for 1<5 minutes?

Exactly the same problem here!!
I guess we are a lot of people facing the same thing...
