# Why Is My Server/VPS Auto-Restarting or Crashing?

This usually happens because of:

* High RAM or CPU usage
* Resource spikes
* Misconfigured plugins or software
* Malware or suspicious activity
* Rare cases of high node load

If your usage stays high, upgrade your plan.

If the issue continues and usage looks normal, create a support ticket.
