Something on our server keeps failing and crashing the server. I don't know if it is one of the two CPU's in it, ram, or harddisk. The error log is pointing to some kind of hardware issue. I am working with the host now to find out what the problem is.
No idea how much the site will be down today but expect some kind of downtime. I will do my best to monitor the site and restart the server if that happens.

I've been wondering why it keeps cutting out.
Hope you've done your backups. :whistle:

I know another forum were some hacker planted a virus or something and screw up the site for a while. Could that be the problem?  |

No. It's more than likely bad ram. |

Everything seems to have stabilized right now. I ran an update check and saw there was a new kernel released. Upgraded the kernel so we will see where that goes. |

I'm not sure that's an option, though, since Brent doesn't have physical access to the hardware. Memtest does still require it to be installed on a boot disk, right?

The host themselves can do the hardware tests. If it goes down again they will start checking all the hardware. |
