We’re back kids. After leaving work last night, my server decided to go into “I’m not going to restart after a crash” mode, even with continually prodding by the Rebound! extension I have installed. My FTP server was still running and accessible, so attempting to troubleshoot the sucker, I downloaded my web server and Rebound! log files. I thought that maybe there would be some sort of consistent pre-crash request or entry in the logs that might indicate a source of the crashes. No such luck. Basically, I wasn’t able to get the box running again until I came back in this morning. After pulling the beast apart, it looks like the problem was a combination of accumulated crud on the motherboard and a corrupted SiteCam preferences file. After fixing these two bothersome bits, I also reinstalled a fresh copy of WebStar just for the heck of it. Crossing my fingers, everything is stable again.
