Isn't running 4.3 kinda cranky? > It *may* be related to cronolog, as it seems to happen when one of the VHs > looses track of it's log connection. Didn't know about cronolog. Anyway... $SEARCH_ENGINE "$your_error_message" gives, for example, this result: http://www.mail-archive.com/misc@openbsd.org/msg36388.html All the others results lead to the same conclusion: your httpd process has reached its resources limits. Either your problem is due to the use of sudo apachectl (use /etc/rc.d/httpd), or you'll have to give httpd more room, by tweaking login.conf.
