Thanks everyone for the response. Dave: yes - I'm logging slow pages. I've have even shut the whole site off from users, and so had 0 load & 0 requests on the cfserver. The problem just keeps happening. I've also looked at resource usage and this box is really not under strain at any time, day or night. Also disk space is fine.
Jessica: I'm increasingly looking at mail as the culprit. Yesterday the problem corrected itself after the spool directory was emptied. Last night I drop the files I removed from the spool in the morning back into the spool and the problem immediately returned. Seems like the issue? Maybe. On the two other occasion messing with the spool had no effect on the problem, it just kept happening. I am thinking that maybe there is a larger problem or instability that was triggered yesterday by something in the spool, but on previous occasions it was triggered by something else. Dave (again): There was a 0 byte file in the undel directory yesterday. However removing it did not solve the problem. Clearing the spool is what seemed to work although I've been through all the files that were in there in a text editor and they all look 100%. Thanks for the help :) I'll keep a close eye on the mail. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=14 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=14 Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.14
