Server is 8.1 and sits in a DMZ. Mainly it does mail and basically Apache is there to run Squirrelmail, so I can check mail from outside. I don't use it that frequently, but it's nice to have. I have set it up with ssl and self-signed certificates, in order to use https. Has been running fine for ~150 days. Two days ago I was working in the office, and wanted to check my mail. Couldn't connect to the server. Tried a couple of things (telnet to port 80, a portscan) Port 80 and 443 closed. Got home, logged in, rcapache status dead Looking at the logs, it died at 00:16 that night: error_log says: [Wed May 7 00:16:10 2003] [notice] SIGUSR1 received. Doing graceful restart [Wed May 7 00:16:31 2003] [error] Cannot resolve host name Scum.kinkon --- ignoring! [Wed May 7 00:16:31 2003] [error] mod_ssl: Init: (Scum.kinkon:80) Ops, no RSA or DSA server certificate found?! [Wed May 7 00:16:31 2003] [error] mod_ssl: Init: (Scum.kinkon:80) You have to perform a *full* server restart when you added or removed a certificate and/or key file Now, I haven't changed anything on it for a very long time, so the last mesg seemed a bit odd. I tarred all of /var/log up and copied it off the system, to have it unaffected by any of the next things I'd try. So I tried to restart apache, and ssl_engine_log said: [warn] Init: (Scum.kinkon:80) You configured HTTPS(443) on the standard HTTP(80) port! This is not good. *I* haven't changed that, so I'm unsure of what to make of it. I'd be thankful for any ideas. The hardware is a recycled Compaq, has little RAM; 64MB, and I wouldn't be much surprised if the machine is starting to go bad. OTOH my *first* reaction was that it might've gooten cracked... There was a thread about logrotate recently. And since the time of death is when logrotate is run (IINM), I'm thinking that *that* might've played a part?
