everything should be fine now, about 2 hours downtime i think ( i was watching tv, sorry :doh0715: :toothless )

for the puter geeks who care, from the server peeps....

The reason why the server crashed and why apache was not starting on reboot was due to the fact that the error_log for apache had exceeded the limit size which is 2.0Gb. This caused the working server to crash due to high load and apche did not start on normal reboot.

The issue is fixed now and apache is running fine in the server.

holy sh!t...the error log exceeded 2 gigs? That's big, even for a server farm, and IMO careless of them to let it reach full capacity like that. I'd be raising hell with my webhost if that happened to me.

Were you watching TV? Or were you ;) ;) watching TV?

cant say much, on a server its my responsibility to check/have checked these things, the server has been running great for almost two weeks but I am sure the errors piled up in the logs for a few weeks before that as were trying to finger out the servers problems, i should have known :brownbag

Well, that wasn't directed at you, because I was assuming that you use a webhost with a server farm located in BFE. But from what I gathered from that statement, YOU are the webhost/server admin? Or do you have the lease/rent a dedicated server? Or are you richer than we all have been led to believe, and own a server farm and control mass amounts of information flowing across the internet??? OMFG!

I need to go buy me some server seeds and plant them so that I can have my own farm...

haha, i actually own the internet, me and al gore started it a few years ago :thumbup

FSB is run on our own dedicated server located in the dallas / fort worth Savvis datacentre which we "rent" for 140.00 per month, it wont be long and we may be looking at upgrading servers which will put us into the 200-250.00 per month range

Dallas? It's not Serverway is it? I used to rent a Battlefield Vietnam server from them. Now I use 1&1.com for my website, I have the MS Developer package, which I think is one level below having a full DS.
